As he spoke, Prince Auten scanned the Palace Master up and down shamelessly as he smiled. "I heard that the Palace Master of the Pure Yang Division is more beautiful than the goddesses from the heavens. I see that's indeed true."
Despite it being a compliment, his tone was full of mockery.
The Palace Master was greatly uncomfortable under Prince Auten's gaze, but she managed to hold back as she replied lightly, "Know your limits, Adam Bedford. Have you considered the consequences of going against the three main sects?"
The Palace Master hardly saw Adam as a threat. After all, he was no more than the sect master of the True Flame Sect, a second-class sect in the world.
He probably took down Zacho by sheer dumb luck.
What she did not know then was that the real Adam Bedford had already died.
Ho ho…
Prince Auten wordlessly smiled at the Palace Master's words. Then, the few North Sea Galaxy elders could not hold it in as they each gave Adam a piece of their mind.
"How dare you, Adam Bedford?! First, you kill my Sect Master, and now, you dare attack the Godly Secret Realm. I'm going to make sure you don't leave alive."
"An eye for an eye. You're going down, Adam Bedford."
"You're in for a nasty surprise…"
As the elders cried out in outrage, Evan's expression was ashen as he stepped forwards to say coldly to Prince Auten, "Adam Bedford. First, you killed Zacho, the Sect Master of the North Sea Galaxy, and now, you've led your team of True Flame Sect pupils to attack the Godly Secret Realm. You don't know who you're going up against here.
"Give up now if you know any better. Otherwise, the True Flame Sect will cease to exist by the end of today."
As he spoke, Evan's expression was still as ever. Like the Palace Master, he hardly saw Adam as a match for them.
Everyone else could hardly contain their shock and rage at the words. Adam Bedford really was out of his mind.
A few seconds later, Evan held back his rage to stare coldly at Prince Auten.
"Are you saying that the True Flame Sect has decided to go against the three main sects for good?"
The three main sects had been on top of the world for so many years, and countless second-class sects had bowed and respected their every whim and fancy, yet Adam was going against them without a shred of remorse.
Martin finally spoke up from where he was standing a little behind everyone, unable to contain his anger any longer as he roared, "Very well, Adam Bedford. It's been a few days since I last saw you. I'd like to see exactly how you think you'll go against the three main sects."
As the final word rang through the air, Martin drew his long sword to slash through the air before charging in Prince Auten's direction.
Martin had once battled against Adam back in the underground town of the Heavenly Secret Palace.
