Chapter 873

Chapter 873 Amused And Not Afraid Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Killian dared to strike at Peter’s vital elixir field. With the open support of Caden and Devon, there was no telling what kind of outrageous actions be might take.

In fact, it could potentially lead to a loss of life, When the time came for them to once again use the same excuse they did for Peter to shirk their responsibility, there would be nothing Ruben could do, He struggled alone under the weight of two people’s pressure, managing to rescue Emrys from the clutches of Killian, which was why that challenge absolutely could not Commence.

Naturally, Emrys understood Ruben’s intentions, but not only was Emrys unafraid, he even felt a hint of amusement. There’s no telling who’s going to wind up dead yet.

Emrys chuckled lightly and said, “Mr. Ruben, I know you’re concerned about my safety, but my mind is made up. Don’t you want to avenge Peter’s grudge?”

Ruben’s face faltered because how could he possibly not want to avenge his son? If he didn’t crave revenge, he wouldn’t be shouting about killing Killian. But would challenging Killian really bring about the vengeance he sought?

Ruben spoke earnestly. “Killian has destroyed Peter’s elixir field. I will definitely seek retribution in the future. This is my responsibility. You’re not yet strong enough to handle this.”

“Do you think, if we couldn’t take down Killian today, we would have another chance in the future?”

Emrys looked intently at Ruben, then continued, “If we let Killian escape today, he’ll hide within Two Sword Sects. If he secludes himself for a few years to cultivate, do you think you’ll still be able to kill him, Mr. Ruben?”

Upon hearing those words, Ruben was taken aback once again, falling into silence because he knew that what Emrys had said was the truth.

If they couldn’t manage to kill Killian that day, finding such an opportunity in the future would likely become even more difficult.

For those who practiced cultivation, it was quite normal to seclude themselves for several years, even a decade or more.

By the time Killian emerged once more, his cultivation would have inevitably advanced to the Golden Elixir Stage, making any attempt to kill him even more unrealistic.

“Mr. Ruben, if Killian chooses to fight today, he is certain to meet his death!” Emrys didat bother to elaborate further.

Instead, he confidently assured Ruben, his handsome face beneath the mask revealing a hint of chilling intent.

Indeed, his motive for challenging Killian was not to prove that he wasn’t worthless but rather to kill the latter.

It was the same as Killian provoking Peter to destroy Peter’s elixir field.

Emrys hadn’t known Ruben and Peter for very long, but he had a good impression of them both. He had even come to consider that show–off, who loved to put on airs, as a buddy.

Emrys was just that kind of straightforward person, willing to kill Killian because the latter destroyed the elixir field of Peter, his pal.

Upon seeing Emrys‘ solemn vow, Ruben fell into deep thought. After a long while, he spoke with a complex tone. “If you truly are confident, I naturally won’t dissuade you..!

Seeing that Emrys remained unmoved, Ruben could only sigh and say, “If you end up being overpowered later, I will use all my strength to ensure your survival.”

Even he himself didn’t sound so confident when he said that.

Emrys, however, was no longer concerned. He glanced around and asked, “In which area was Peter when Killian destroyed his energy center?”

Ruben pointed, and at that moment, the area was still crowded with disciples from the Sword Sects.

They were all looking in that direction, their faces filled with uncertainty and surprise.

Emrys nodded, choosing not to speak any further. He turned and strode purposefully toward that particular area. The disciples of the Sword Sects who gathered there instinctively made way for him.

Upon arriving at the center point, Emrys halted in his tracks, pausing for a moment before he suddenly declared loudly, “I am the so–called loser who took away your Sword King Mountain’s inheritance.”
