The newcomer had a sharp face and a robust figure with huge bones. Wearing a set of black robes, he arrived with the wind seemingly effortlessly with a tremendous aura!

A casual glance from Aiden was enough to tell that the black robes were far from simple.

The surface of the robes was dotted with stars that seemed like they were sewn on and they even shone faintly in a dazzling manner!

If an enemy was unprepared during a fight and the stars on the robes shone brightly, their eyes would be impacted and they would be flustered!

Naturally, the robes posed no threat to Aiden.

He had trained Illumination Eye and looked at the rise and set of the blazing sun daily. Naturally, those specks of starlight would not faze him.

The black-robed martial artist had a sharp gaze and his expression darkened after he swept his gaze at Lysabel Kela's group.

"This is Senior Brother Kell Yue."

Lysabel Kela said to Aiden first before declaring, "Senior Brother Kell, this is our dear friend Aiden. It's all thanks to him that we were saved."

Kell Yue's gaze landed on Aiden.

At first glance, this person seemed way too ordinary. Wearing a common set of green robes, his features were refined and he did not carry any sect badge on his waist.

More than a martial artist, the first impression this man gave off was of a weak scholar.

Most of the time, the strength of a martial artist would be displayed in their aura.

Some people had auras so powerful that they could shock everything without making a move!

Some people had fierce gazes that could fill the air with a blood stench at a single glance!

However, in Kell Yue's eyes, Aiden was truly ordinary.

The only thing that surprised him was the lion beneath Aiden. It was golden all over and seemed like it was from the Golden Lion race.

However, Golden Lions were usually much tougher than this lion!

This lion seemed listless and dispirited without the dominance and ferocity of a pure-blooded ferocious beast.

"Its bloodline should be mixed with some other trash breed."

The thought crossed Kell Yue's mind and he did not think too much about it.

Kell Yue glanced once at Aiden and asked deeply without the intention of greeting the latter, "What happened?"

Martial artists of Southern Duel Sect headed up and recounted everything that happened in the valley.

Kell Yue's expression turned increasingly darker.

Southern Duel Sect had sent a hundred martial artists for this trip but now, there were only less than 20 of them – it was a severe loss.

However, the ancient battlefield had only just started.

As though he suddenly recalled something, Kell Yue scanned the group and asked coldly, "Where's my younger brother?"

"He was eaten by that Golden Lion!"

The martial artist that was scared earlier on blurted hurriedly, seizing this rare opportunity as he glared at the Golden Lion hatefully.

The Golden Lion shrugged its head fearlessly.

If Aiden was not riding on its back, it would have lunged forward a long time ago to rip this guy called Kell Yue apart!

Aiden raised his brow.

In that case, it meant that the blue-robed man who tried to escape alone earlier on was Kell Yue's younger brother.

"Hmm?"historical

Kell Yue spun around and glared at Aiden and the Golden Lion mount with a murderous look.

Lysabel Kela's expression changed slightly.

The tension in the atmosphere had dipped to a freezing point!

"Senior Brother Kell, please calm down,"

Lysabel Kela said hurriedly, "Honored Young Master, Aiden is our benefactor and this has nothing to do with him. Furthermore, Zor Nola was the one who abandoned us and tried to run away alone while dear friend Aiden was fighting. That was the reason why he was eaten."

When Kell Yue saw how close Lysabel Kela was to Aiden coupled with her clear intention of defending the latter, his expression turned darker and his killing intent deepened.

"Fufu."

Kell Yue sneered and asked, "So you mean that my brother deserved to die?"I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

"N-No, that's not what I meant! I-It's just that.."

Lysabel Kela was anxious and wanted to explain but she did not know how to start. Instead, she could only turn to Aiden in a pleading manner.

Aiden had a nonchalant expression and said in a leisurely manner, "In my opinion, your brother truly deserved to die."

The moment he said that everything went silent.

Complete silence!

"What. Did. You. Say?!"

Kell Yue's spirit energy surged and his eyes shone with a sharp killing intent!

"No!"

Lysabel Kela moved and stood between the two of them, saying nervously on the brink of tears, "Senior Brother Kell, dear friend Aiden, please don't fight. This is a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?"

Kell Yue smiled darkly and said with a chilling tone, "The death of my brother is a misunderstanding? Can I kill him right now and say that it's a misunderstanding too?"

"Senior Brother Kell, this had nothing to do with dear friend Aiden at all! He was the one who stood in to save us!" Lysabel Kela tried her best to explain things.

"Please calm down, both of you,"

A martial artist of Southern Duel Sect tried persuading as well. "Senior Brother Kell, dear friend Aiden, a fight between the two of you will only lead to severe losses for both parties. There's no point to that."

When it heard the phrase 'severe losses on both parties', the Golden Lion could not help but stifle a chuckle.

It looked at Kell Yue like it was looking at a retard.

How ignorant!

In truth, right from the beginning, Aiden had not been agitated at all – he was indifferent and there were no emotions in his eyes.

"Fufufufu!"

Kell Yue laughed sinisterly with a dark expression before saying coolly, "I can heed the suggestions to not attack, Sure. However, who is going to pay for my brother's life?!"

The Southern Duel Sect martial artist caught sight of the snickering Golden Lion and a thought crossed his mind as he pointed to it. "Senior Brother Kell Wei was eaten by that lion! Let's kill it and have it pay with its life!"

Lysabel Kela was delighted as well and looked at Aiden instinctively.

After all, he was unrelated to that Golden Lion and it was merely a demon beast that he had just subdued without even a blood oath.

This compromise on both parties was the best way to resolve this matter.

"Alright,"

Kell Yue's lips curled as he glared at Aiden coldly. "Since my juniors sought mercy for you, I'll spare your life for now and kill that beast beneath you first!"

Aiden smiled and asked indifferently, "And if I refuse?"

The situation that had toned down a moment earlier turned intense once more!

Both their gazes clashed in midair with sparks flying!

In truth, in Aiden's heart, that martial artist named Zor Nola deserved to die!

When he appeared to fight the demons, that person chose to take advantage of the situation and escape instead of helping out – there was nothing to pity about the death of someone like that!

Even if the Golden Lion did not devour him alive, Aiden would have chased after that person and killed him personally!

However, given Aiden's character, he could not be bothered to explain such things.

If that person was killed, so be it!

The reason why he trained was to gain clarity of mind and peace in his actions – there was no need for him to have such hesitations!

That was the reason why the only reply he had when those thoughts crossed his mind was, "And if I refuse?"

What can you do to me if I refuse to relent?!

His display of strength was shuddering!

In that instant, Kell Yue felt his vision blur, as though the refined scholar had just bared menacing fangs at him all of a sudden!

ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm Kell Yue experienced a hallucination.

It was as though that scholar could eat him alive!
