Chapter 507: The Arrogant Knight
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The burning crimson eyes at the top of the spire seemed enraged enough to burst out of the eye sockets. The burning flames cast a reddish hue against the sky.
The overwhelming pressure kept assaulting Xu Yuan’s mind.
He felt that something was wrong. He looked up and stared at the strange creature. At that moment, the air seemed to freeze.
There was a sound of glass shattering.
Spiderweb-like cracks spread from the shattered crimson spatial rifts.
In the blink of an eye, the entire sky had split open. The cracks spread, and the entire space shattered.
The scene changed right in front of Xu Yuan’s eyes. The blood-red sky and endless clouds had completely vanished, leaving only a crimson mist lingering in the air.
The rocks had also disappeared without a trace. They were replaced by something else.
The burning crimson eyes still hung high in the sky!
“Great initial hero!” said a nervous voice.
Xu Yuan turned and saw the Lords who had trailed behind him.
The two Lords were surrounded by several Night Devil Bees.
“Thank you, initial hero, for saving our lives! I am Puyol, leader of the Dragon Fang’s Guild. We are very grateful to Lord Su Wan too,” said the middle-aged man. He bowed respectfully to Xu Yuan.
“What do you want?” Xu Yuan looked at the two Lords indifferently.
“Hero, this spire seals some ancient power. When we came, a transcendent of the Knight Sect informed us of what was inside!” said the middle-aged Lord.
“D*mn you! How dare you reveal the sect’s secrets to outsiders?! You are asking for death!” said a furious voice before the middle-aged man could finish speaking.
The space distorted, and a burly figure, in full armor, appeared in the air, holding a knight’s lance.
The two Lords turned pale when they saw this.
“Your Excellency Hanland, why are you here? Isn’t this area off-limits to heroes?!”
Hanland looked at the two Lords in contempt.
“I don’t know who you are, but this is the place where the glory of the God of Knights shines. You have just heard about secrets that don’t belong to you. After 1 retrieve the treasures for my Lord, you will follow me back to the Knight Sect and receive your punishment,” said Hanland as he glared at Xu Yuan.
An aura of transcendence surged forth.
“I’m supposed to go to the Knight Sect and receive punishment just because 1 heard secrets that don’t concern me?” Xu Yuan smiled.
‘Is that how their sect operates? They really lack brains!’
“Do you intend to resist? Do you wish to become a heretic hunted down by the Knight Sect? Or perhaps you believe that with this army, you can fight?”
The two Lords turned even paler. Challenging Su Wan’s initial hero was a bad idea. They wouldn’t even dare to imagine something like that!
“Your Excellency Hanland, you don’t need to be angry. It’s our fault. Su Wan’s initial hero has nothing to do with this matter,” said the middle-aged Lord.
“You still want to absolve him? It seems that your relationship is… complicated.” Hanland scowled.
“Hanland, the one who stands before you is Su Wan’s initial hero!”
Hanland seemed to have heard that name somewhere, but he couldn’t recall where. Regardless, what could a Lord’s hero amount to anyway?
The crimson eyes at the top of the tower erupted once again, and something seemed to be brewing.
“Who is Su Wan’s initial hero? What does he amount to?” Hanland waved to dismiss them.
His gaze focused on Xu Yuan with disdain. He detested people with such an attitude.
“You, hero! Who gave you the courage to stand before me?”
The Lords trembled in fear at that question. ‘Don’t drag us down with you!’
The two Lords wanted to say something, but they kept quiet.
They couldn’t understand how the extraordinary member of the Knight Sect dared to be so rude!
Although Su Wan hadn’t come in person, it was still safe to believe that her hero was as strong as her. Everyone knew Su Wan’s heroes and troops were monsters!
The Lords were baffled. How could this knight be so rude to Su Wan’s hero?
Thinking about the deep-rooted arrogance and disdain that the natives had toward the Lords, the two Lords felt helpless.
It was common for him to not recognize Su Wan or her hero. The natives usually didn’t entertain the Lords and their heroes.
They remembered how they had been tricked into entering the spire by this extraordinary individual. They had sacrificed the troops they had nurtured and trained for a long time.
If it weren’t for Xu Yuan, they would have been dead by now.
Suddenly, they felt enraged. They wanted to see how far this arrogant individual would go to humiliate Xu Yuan before being struck down.
The two Lords didn’t try to converse with the powerful individual. It was useless anyway. His arrogance won’t let him listen to them.
The atmosphere became tense.
The crimson eyes of the spire were dazzling.
The extraordinary hero of the Knight Sect held his head high and looked down on Xu Yuan.
He didn’t regard Xu Yuan as someone worthy of attention.
Xu Yuan, on the contrary, was as calm and indifferent as ever. He lowered his head to look at the two Lords on the ground..
