”Haha, you finally showed up, you little brat!”
Two figures, one fat and one thin stepped out to block Caspian and Maya’s way as soon as they stepped out of the floating market.
“It’s you?” Caspian looked up.
It was clear that his speculation of them working together was correct when he saw them standing side by side.
“Do you know them?” Maya glanced at the two of them then looked back to Caspian, “They look like they come with ill will.
”
Caspian was deep in thought Maya was a little confused.
No one knew what Handsome thought about right now, but it seemed full of anticipation.
Its gaze was directed at the two people standing in their way as it began to drool once again.
“Is something up?” asked Caspian as he looked toward them.
“Don’t pretend you don’t know!”
The fat cultivator viciously spat a mouthful of phlegm to the ground.
There was none of the warmth and friendliness that he showed earlier at the stall right then.
There was only ferocity and resentment on his chubby features.
He looked utterly detestable.
“Cut the crap! You’ve made us very mad.
Forget about leaving this place alive!” The fat cultivator threatened to end their lives as soon as he spoke, but that fit with his disposition of killing people as soon as they disagreed.
“You want to kill us?” Maya’s gaze sharpened and her pretty face tensed up.
“Of course!”
The sallow-faced cultivator smiled sinisterly at that moment.
With a wave of his long sleeve, two large metal hooks gleaming with a silver light slid into his hands.
Dark bloodstains were visible on the tip of the metal hooks.
One could smell the faint metallic smell of blood as it swayed.
At that instant, a couple of cultivators walked by as they were drawn by the commotion.
Soon after, a small crowd gathered around them.
The fat and thin cultivators were quickly recognized by the crowd.
“Aren’t they the Soul Devouring Evil Duo? Why did those two young ones offend them?”
“The Soul Devouring Evil Duo are rogue cultivators who used to make a living from exclusively robbing people outside the floating market.
They stopped for some time.
Did someone catch their eye today?”
“Those two kill people for their things in cold blood.
I’m afraid that those youngsters are going to be goners now that they’ve bumped into those two.”
Many people in the crowd sighed with pity.
It was clear that they all thought that Caspian and Maya were about to die horrible deaths because they knew of the fat and skinny cultivators’ notorious reputations.
“So you two are crooks!” Caspian shot the fat cultivator a side glance after hearing the discourse from the crowd around him.
They thought that the two youngsters would be scared stiff after hearing all about their nefarious reputation, but the fat and skinny cultivators discovered that the two youngsters seemed completely unfettered.
Their calmness angered the evil duo, especially since they had an audience.
They felt that Caspian’s attitude was disrespectful and a challenge toward them.
“No one can save you! You’re going to die today!” A fierce light flashed across the eyes of the sallow-skinned cultivator.
He raised his arm and pointed at Caspian.
“Do you think that the floating market will turn a blind eye if you kill?” Caspian turned his head back in the direction of the floating market.
He previously noticed a couple of rogue cultivators that keep the peace inside the floating market.
“Don’t expect them to help you! No one can cause trouble within the floating market, but now that you’re out, they won’t care no matter what happens.”
The fat cultivator laughed mockingly.
