"You don't deserve to know which ancient clan we are from,"
said the Rule Soul Avatar in a flat tone. He had a cold expression on his face.
Evil Lord Amias was very unhappy with the Rule Soul Avatar's response. However, he could not help but connect their attitude with their backgrounds. The Rule Soul Avatar's arrogance was precisely an indication that they might come from an ancient clan.
"Humph! You all get out of here now!"
Eventually, he gave up the idea of killing them. After all, he only killed people to keep the news about the opening of the relic from spreading out. He had to keep it a secret. But by doing so, it didn't necessarily mean that he had to provoke people from any ancient clan.
If he infuriated an ancient clan, he would be doomed. It wouldn't matter anymore even if he could get many treasures from the relic.
"Do you intend to keep the treasures in the relic to yourself? That's ridiculous!" Lord Feng sneered.
"Yes, that's right. All of us have witnessed the opening of the relic together. You can't just monopolize it," Darren echoed.
The truth was, Darren and his companions didn't necessarily want the treasures. But if they didn't show an imposing manner right now, Evil Lord Amias was likely to see through them and attack them.
A ferocious aura surged around Evil Lord Amias' body. Obviously, he was angry.
"Rawr!"
He roared and raised the huge dark metal rod in his hand. His momentum was as tremendous as an ocean.
But Darren, Lord Feng, Lord Starry Sword, and the Rule Soul Avatar remained motionless. Even the expressions on their faces didn't change at all.
It was no longer surprising. Besides, they had seen numerous spectacles and killed countless powerful warriors. How could such a trivial movement frighten them?
"Ha-ha!"
Evil Lord Amias wildly laughed when he saw how calm Darren and the others were.
"Please accept my apology. I didn't mean to offend you just now.
You're right. We all have witnessed the opening of the relic. Perhaps it was destined to happen. Of course, we should share its resources."
In the end, Evil Lord Amias gave up monopolizing the relic. Obviously, he just tested them just now.
"Humph! Lead us the way," Lord Feng said arrogantly.
"Please follow me."
Evil Lord Amias became more polite when he saw their arrogance.
They were not so far from the entrance of the relic, so they soon arrived at the edge of a collapsing cave.
Rumble!
All of a sudden, the earth shook. Then a beam of blood-red light gushed out from the entrance of the cave. It was like a blood-red pillar that went straight into the sky.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In an instant, countless figures came out from afar and surrounded them.
"Damn it!
They are from an ancient clan."
The expression on Evil Lord Amias' face changed drastically. He was so surprised that so many members of an ancient clan suddenly appeared.
"Evil Lord Amias, this relic is not something you can have. You'd better get out of here as soon as possible,"
said a young man in a blue robe who was about seventeen years old. He also had long hair. Floating in the air, he looked like a celestial being.
"Are you from the Ling Clan?" asked Evil Lord Amias.
"Yes. My name is Romeo Ling. Our Ling Clan has been waiting for this relic to open for a long time. You'd better retreat now."
"Uh..." Evil Lord Amias was speechless. The hundreds of people who came out just now looked like they were in their early twenties. The one with the highest realm was the young man in a blue robe. He had just entered the Fate Realm.
Evil Lord Amias was a powerful warrior at the Mysterious Sanskrit Realm. In terms of strength, he was way stronger than them. If he really wanted to, he could easily kill all of them. But he couldn't do so. Why? Because these young men were from the Ling Clan.
"Mr. Ling, just like you, I have also been waiting here for many years. I hope you can give me a chance to go in and have a look. I promise I won't take anything with me."
"Romeo, let him in. I don't think he will dare to take anything from us," said someone from the group.
"All right then. Evil Lord Amias, you are now considered as a renowned reclusive cultivator. I hope you cherish your reputation and keep your words. Otherwise..." Romeo Ling said with a darkened expression. He deliberately didn't finish his words, but Evil Lord Amias had understood what he meant.
"Ha-ha! Don't worry, Mr. Ling. Every word I say carries weight,"
