"Crimson Nine Inferno is an excellent flame for body training. The Holy Emperor usually doesn’t give a second chance, right?""That's why I say he's awesome!"The Ancient Warlord in blue shrugged and said, " One year ago, Bernard got hold of the news about the communication between an ancient martial arts sect and other islands through some unknown channel. As a result, he killed all the ancient martial arts sect members! Because of that action, he got the opportunity to experience Crimson Nine Inferno again. In short, a low-born person like him can only resort to being shameless and risking his life to fight for opportunities, just like a rabid dog!"A low-born?Like a rabid dog?Not far away, Bernard seemed to be walking in the distance. However, he heard all the conversation between the two people just now. His expression became ferocious.In particular, the words “low-born" were like a thorn in his heart.As Bernard quickly returned to his house, the piercing feeling in his
Related to the Triple Flair Sect?Bernard, who initially wanted to ignore them, raised his eyebrows when he heard the servant's words and asked, "What do you mean?"“Uh..."The servant obviously did not know the details and immediately began to stammer.Bernard waved his hand impatiently and hissed, "Go, go! Bring them in to see me immediately so I can ask them exactly what this is about!"“Yes!"The servant was relieved and hurriedly ran outside.After a while, there was a shuffle of footsteps. With the servant leading in the front, Borris, the patriarch of the Buckners, and Bovies came trotting in.Both of them walked before Bernard and quickly knelt on the ground. They greeted Bernard in unison and with great respect, "We, Borris and Bovies, are here to greet our Elder!""Rise!"Since the death of his disciple Brandon, Bernard no longer had a relationship with the Buckners. However, when facing his juniors, Bernard held back the impatience and disgust he usually had.He j
... "I'm curious about this! Why did you choose to fight Bernard?"While Bernard was preparing to attack the Triple Flair Sect, someone else was in the attic of Elder Eisler's residence where Fred lived.Seelie asked the question curiously after Fred finished his training.In fact, in Seelie's opinion, the Buckners matter was not that troublesome to resolve.The Triple Flair Sect could just charge Bovies for an unfounded crime like disrespect and execute him!After all, the premise for the Buckners to get in touch with Bernard was because they knew that Fred, a person who had grudges with them, had become a core disciple of the Triple Flair Sect, and thus they felt threatened!As long as Bovies was killed and the Buckners were not informed about Fred joining the Triple Flair Sect and becoming a Core Disciple, then everything would be solved easily.The Buckners would never outright offend the Triple Flair Sect for the sake of Bovies, an expelled clan member, and go to such gre
"This...this momentum… Oh my god!""What's going on? What's going on?""Oh my God! This murderous presence… Who dares to release such a strong murderous aura in Triple Flair Sect?"Triple Flair Sect, which was originally peaceful, suddenly became a scene of chaos.Whether it was the Core and Elite Disciples who were practicing, or the Ordinary Disciples and Handyman disciples, they were all shocked by the murderous presence spreading throughout Brume Peak.The senior officials of the Triple Flair Sect, including the Sect Leader Malior, the Chief Elder Eisler, and other elders quickly gathered here too."Sect Master, what is going on? What is this powerful presence?" An elder ran over in panic, looked at the sect leader Malior, and asked.Elder Eisler had already hissed at him. "How unbecoming of an elder to rush over in such a hurry!"“But..."The elder was clearly frightened by this powerful aura and did not listen to Elder Eisler's words at all.This made Elder Eisler so fu
As soon as Bovies said those words, Malior and Elder Eisler immediately understood what was happening. At the same time, their hearts tightened as they gradually shifted their eyes to look at the man standing in front of Bovies.There was no doubt about it.The momentum and killing intent that spread throughout Brume Peak were caused by that man.Malior and Elder Eisler already knew who he was even though they had never seen him before.He was a high-level Ancient Warlord under Holy Emperor Agate’s command, once a member of the Triple Flair Sect, but ashamed of it. He even deliberately suppressed the Triple Flair Sect, causing the death of many fighters in the Sect, including the former sect master. This resulted in the Triple Flair Sect’s fall from being third-level to fifth-level. He was the main culprit for the sect’s decline!Bernard Buckner!"Greetings, Lord Bernard!" Malior first bowed respectfully to Bernard.Although Elder Eisler had been angry with Bernard for suppressi
Malior and the other elders were stunned when they saw the two disciples. After all, they were two of the top three elite disciples of the sect. While they were not core disciples yet, they were talents that the Triple Flair Sect had high hopes for. However, before they could ask what the two disciples were doing there, Bernard explained what happened, which brought a deep frown to the elder's faces. "How dare the two of you betray our sect?!" Elder Eisler roared.Neither Ymir nor Blanco looked apologetic. Ymir scoffed. "It's human nature to prioritize my own needs first, no? And Elder Eisler, you were the one who accepted Fred Hoffman as your closed-door disciple first! "What's so wrong about me offering my loyalty to Lord Buckner and telling them that you've accepted that bastard under your wing?" Blanco sneered, "Yeah! You started it first, Elder Eisler!" "What about you, then? What excuse do you have?" Another elder harrumphed. "We've offered you knowledge, power,
There was no doubt that Malior was talking about Fred. After all, he and Elder Eisler were the only ones who knew that Fred and Seelie were high-level Ancient Warlords. Not to mention that Fred was the cause of all of this.Malior's only hope was that Fred and Seelie would be willing to step in, but Elder Eisler also knew that they had no right to demand Fred's assistance. Bernard had already assigned his men to surround the perimeters of Brume Peak. They did not doubt that Bernard was planning to rid the entirety of the Triple Flair Sect. Elder Eisler had internally called out for Fred more times than he could count, praying that Fred would arrive and save the day. However, until the man showed himself, Elder Eisler would never be able to relax.He wondered if Fred had lied about what he said in the pavilion. Had Fred already taken the opportunity to run for his life? "I promised that I would deal with this since I'm the cause of it. I'm not the kind to go back on my word."
Brume Peak fell into a deathly silence, for everyone was rendered speechless by Fred's declaration. After all, only Malior and Elder Eisler knew that Fred was a high-level Ancient Warlord. Malior only knew because Elder Eisler told him so. Technically, only Elder Eisler knew about the extent of Fred's power. As far as everyone was concerned, Fred was a core disciple who was only probably slightly more powerful than the other disciples on Brume Peak.However, Fred was fighting against Bernard Buckner here, a high-level Ancient Warlord loyal to Holy Emperor Agate.Everyone thought that Fred would be on his knees shaking and begging for mercy. He might even plead to be the sole target of Bernard's wrath since he was the instigator. Instead, he threatened to kill Bernard if the man did not leave the mountain in the count of five.Fred must be crazy to say something so outrageous."How dare you, Fred Hoffman?!" Bovies roared. "Who the fuck do you think you are?! How dare you talk
Marciella walking away did not bode well with the giant snake. Marciella was its food! How could it accept that its food had escaped?Marciella had not moved far yet. She reluctantly looked back at Fred.She did not know how Fred would handle the River God. She could only hope Fred would be okay!When Fred saw that she had left, he geared up, rubbing his palms in glee. He had an eager look on his face, which confused the giant snake.It was the snake’s first time meeting a man like Fred!How strange indeed!At this time!Suddenly, Fred said with hostility etched on his face, "Hey, Big Snake, what are you going to do now?"The snake's attention was entirely focused on him, which seemed off to Fred."What I’m going to do?"The giant snake fixated its eyes on Fred. It felt that it could handle a human like Fred easily.“I’m going to kill you with one bite! How dare you look down on me like this!"The giant snake rushed toward Fred fiercely at a speed so fast that no one could
Fred was annoyed by the giant snake's arrogant tone. Fred squinted his eyes at the snake and asked in confusion, "Why are you making that face?"“Huh?"The giant snake was shocked. He thought that Fred would submit to him, but to his surprise, Fred was not shaken at all.The snake was about to lose his temper.“Dirty snake, haven't I made myself clear enough? I think you are probably sleep-talking if you want me to hand over my people to you..." Fred said impatiently.At this moment…Feeling that it was being ridiculed, the snake said suddenly, "You punk, this is the first time anyone spoke to me this way. What is your name?"“Me?"Fred was stunned subconsciously, not knowing what the snake wanted. Suddenly, he understood.“Did you want to know my name so you can remember me, bow down before me, and become my follower? Sure, I’ll give you that chance!"He was adding fuel to the fire. The giant snake almost spat out blood in anger!"What? You want me to follow an immature bei
Huh!?Putting aside Marciella, even Fred could not hide his shock as a giant snake appeared from under the water!A giant snake!How could it be!?Fred's eyes widened at the sheer size of the snake. "A Giant Snake… Is this the so-called River God?"Moreover, the size was humongous. The snake must be at least ten stories high!What a huge snake!Fred finally understood why he felt a powerful force under the water!There was a sharp glint in the giant snake’s eyes! That was the blinking light from time to time!"Who comes here? Are you from the village? Who do you plan to sacrifice to me this time?" As soon as the giant snake spoke, Fred realized that this was not the first time it had done this.The snake seemed familiar with the ritual process. Obviously, the villagers had witnessed this giant snake before. This was the meeting between the two sides! Fred felt uncomfortable at this. As for the giant snake, it felt bemused when it saw Fred. The snake had never seen Fred befo
Fred was going to risk it all to open this girl's eyes!The force from the punch was extraordinary! As soon as the tree was hit by the seismic fist, it fell immediately and the whole tree split neatly in two!Marciella was dumbfounded!Although she knew how powerful Fred was, to witness his power was a different thing entirely!"Master Fred, your power is insane!"Marciella could not help but applaud.Fred seemed indifferent, as though he had no feeling at all about this."Is it? Why do you think so?"He looked so indifferent.For Ancient Martial Arts, things did not get any simpler than this!"You’re so strong. Anyway, I don’t doubt you anymore..." Marciella sighed, suddenly feeling very sad. "This is the reward of being educated. If we were more knowledgeable, we wouldn’t be so clueless.”"Haha, if you can't solve your issues, your descendants can work harder," Fred said with a wink.Marciella said, "Mr. Fred, I needed to ask you something! What if our luck was changed ju
What Fred said aroused her curiosity."What does it look like when you offer a sacrifice?"Fred knew he could not speak of this matter. Sure enough, Marciella felt a little downcast after Fred said the words. She did not know why Fred would say such a thing. Suddenly, Fred felt bad about it.He coughed and said, "Don't think too much about it... I just want to find a clue. Maybe we could find a solution. Why does it never rain in your village?""Huh?"Marciella's eyes, which were still a little dejected, suddenly realized what was important and asked hurriedly, "Mr. Fred, are you saying that the reason why it never rains in our village is because someone is behind it?"Although Fred was unwilling to admit it, he could not help but nod. "Yes, this is exactly what you thought!""For real?!"Marciella felt hopeful again when she heard this. She said hastily, "The thing you asked about is pretty simple. You can just check out that place!""That place?"Fred turned around to see w
Marciella found herself nodding in agreement with Fred's harsh assessment. "You're spot on," she said. "That woman is nothing but vile!"Seeing Marciella's reaction, a rare smile crossed Fred's face as he nodded back. "Glad you see it my way," he said.What caught Fred off guard was the villagers' reaction. One by one, their faces turned ashen with despair.It seemed to them that nothing could be worse than the predicament they were facing. The absence of the witch spelled doom for the village—it was like their last shred of hope had vanished. They had all put their faith in her to charm the River God into blessing them with rain, which would have brought some peace to their troubled lives. However, now their chances seemed to have dried up just like their fields. Fred stood there, his face a mask of serenity amidst the chaos.In the moments that followed, the village chief was a picture of despair, his only option was to send everyone home while he racked his brain for a backup pl
"What?"Fred did not even have time to blink before the witch suddenly made a move.It was like a bomb went off.Kaboom!Then, she was dead!Fred dusted off his hands, even surprising himself with his lack of tolerance for the witch.Now, though, he had a real headache. He had planned to clear the air with the witch and lay out the past so everyone would know the full picture.He thought that might just turn things around.The situation changed when she vanished, and Fred's plans were completely derailed. Then again, changing the villagers' minds was not going to be a walk in the park anyway. They were pretty set in their ways, thanks to all the stuff they had been fed.As such, just talking it out might not cut it. Heck, it could even mess with history!With the witch out of the equation, Fred figured he might as well try a different tactic. Maybe if he took out the guy in the cloak and worked his own magic to bring some rain, it could save a lot of hassle. The more he thoug
"No way!"The witch bristled with defiance. She could not accept that she was no match for Fred.As she noticed Fred's focus was locked on her, a sly idea popped up in her mind.Before she could act on it, though, she found herself pinned against the wall by Fred in a flash...Her face contorted in disbelief. She was pinned so tightly that she could not even move!The witch was completely overpowered, her heart racing with panic.How could he be so much stronger than her?Fred, on the other hand, seemed unfazed."What's going through your head? You don't seriously think you can take me on, do you?" Fred asked, his voice laced with skepticism.The witch felt utterly trapped, as if at any second, Fred might just finish her off."Look, I messed up, okay? Can we not do this? I'm old, just a pile of brittle bones—I can't take this kind of rough treatment!" the witch pleaded with Fred, trying a new tactic to get through to him.Fred was not falling for it. He looked at her with a
"Heh, I caught on to you a while back, you know. You've been tailing me, and I'm pretty sure you're here for me. Plus, you don't have the look of someone from our village. That means you are an outsider, and I'm your target, right? Listen, man, we don't have any beef with each other, so why are you sticking your nose where it doesn't belong?"The witch had sensed the raw power rolling off Fred, and it was enough to send shivers down her spine!At that moment, she knew that challenging Fred was not going to be a walk in the park! If she had spotted him earlier in the forest, it would not have been good news for her. For starters, she had no clue how many tricks Fred had up his sleeve, and if he took her down, she and her buddy would be toast.However, the witch was not about to let Fred take her out without a fight! She racked her brain and finally settled on one strategy!She would try to sweet-talk him, hoping Fred would fall for her words just like everyone else, and fall into he
