Flora gave up constantly demanding information about the secret key in Dragon Sect since she knew that it was a waste of time and effort sticking to it.
"OK, I understand. Though I'm a little disappointed, I still appreciate everything you have just told me." Sighed Flora.
Maximilian shrugged and answered helplessly, "I would have told you everything if I knew the complete picture of that."
Suddenly, his intuition for danger told Maximilian that something was not right behind him. He looked backwards and found a group of men was following him. "Hey there, Stay away, and we'll be fine. You guys would never want to mess with me." Maximilian yelled.
Sadly, it seemed that Maximilian's clear enough announcement failed to stop their approaching pace.
Flora, standing by the side of Maximilian, thought that there must be a reason why Maximilian suddenly turned around and yelled at those strangers, and she was right.
It was the moment when those strangers were about to pass by the two that they suddenly turned to Maximilian and took the offensive towards him.
Maximilian knew that these fellows were coming right at him at the moment when he caught sight of them, and now he was going to show them what he could do.
"Well, you guys bought it on yourselves." Said Maximilian impatiently and plainly, and those men again chose not to hear any warning of Maximilian.
With blades in their hands, those fellows cruelly targeted the vulnerable part of Maximilian's body and stabbed. However, with a disdainful smile on his face, Maximilian disarmed those fellows in a second and said, "Last warning, calm down and we could talk."
Though finding that they had been disarmed, they seemed not going to give up so easily and rushed to Maximilian with their bare hands.
Frowned, Maximilian lost his patience and decided to leave them no choice. Not after a while, those men were taken down by Maximilian and laid on the ground.
Maximilian judged that these fellows were sent here by someone. In a cold tone, Maximilian asked, "Tell me, who sent you guys here?"
They hummed at Maximilian's query, and then remained silent. Seeing that, Maximilian decided to resort to violence.
Targeting one of the fellows lying on the ground, he then gave a hard strike at his tummy, which made the man twist his face and grit his teeth out of extreme pain.
It was a ruthless strike, a strike to teach them not to mess with someone whom they could never fight against.
"Who sent you guys here? I'm not going to ask again." Maximilian said quietly, with a smile hanging on his face — a smile that struck those fellows with a shudder of horror.
They knew that if they still chose to stay silent, they would not be able to see the next sunrise.
"OK, fine! We will tell you anything! Just please, stop!" They hastily yelled.
One of them said, "We were sent here by someone from Dragon Sect, and you have already been kicked out of Dragon Sect."
Maximilian was a little surprised hearing their words, while he soon calmed himself down since such thing was just a matter of time.
