Only at this time, Franklin looked at Laurant and said, "Laurant, for the sake of our years of friendship, let me remind you that it's not too late to order your disciple to retreat."
Laurant, with a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words. He looked at Franklin and scrutinized the latter' s expression, frowning slightly.
Tyrion frowned when he saw this. He glared at Franklin and waved his hand. Suddenly, the other elders of the Lightning Clan came forward and held Franklin down. They didn't want him to spout any nonsense.
At this time, Laurant seemed to have thought it through and ignored Franklin. He looked at Jerry and said, "Jerry, finish him quick. Make it fast!"
His words undoubtedly showed his attitude. It was his support for Tyrion and his distrust for Franklin.
Tyrion's lips curved into a smile as he smiled in delight.
Franklin sighed, shook his head, and said, "Laurant, this has nothing to do with your White Jade Palace. Once you take action, the White Jade Palace will also be involved. It'll be too late for you to regret then."
Laurant said blandly, "The White Jade Palace will not tolerate malice. My disciple is also fighting for his good friend. We won't regret serving justice."
Upon hearing this, Franklin sneered and said, "Really? Since you said so, you should bear the consequences yourself!"
After that, Franklin looked up to the sky and broke out in laughter.
Upon seeing this, the guests around them couldn't help but feel curious and began discussing in low voices.
"What's going on? Franklin seems to believe in Fade a lot, he's been speaking up for him all these while!"
"They've colluded with each other, so he has to speak for him. What's there to be confused about?"
"But, given Franklin's status, if Fade is just a mere thief, Franklin has no need to take on such an attitude at all!"
"Erm... Why are you thinking so much? In this case, do you think that Fade can turn the tables?"
While the crowd was talking, Jerry walked up to Fade. Jerry was dressed in pure white and he had an attractive face. His graceful appearance attracted a lot of attention, especially the young women in the crowd. They looked at Jerry with burning interest.
Jerry smiled and looked at Fade, saying, "You must not have expected this to happen!"
Fade shot a cold glance at Jerry and said, "It's none of your business, but if you're courting death, I'll grant your wish."
The corner of Jerry's eyes twitched and a hint of anger flashed across his eyes. However, he regained his nonchalance, "Why are you still being stubborn at this point in time? You'll soon regret it."
"There will be someone regretting later, but it definitely won't be me," Fade said coldly.
"You're so hard-headed!" Jerry shook his head, as if he didn't want to argue with Fade on this trivial matter.
After a pause, he squinted his eyes and looked at Fade. He lowered his voice and said, "Hand over the Icy Boehmeria and the Fire Blaze Ginseng. I'll give you a quick death later."
Hearing this, Fade couldn't help but sneer. He patted his chest and said, "The things are here. Do you want them? You can come and get them yourself!"
Jerry's eyes turned cold. He said in a deep voice, "I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it! Next, you no longer have a chance."
As soon as he finished, Jerry waved his robe and a long sword appeared in his hand.
The sharp sword was shining with cold light, carrying with it the chill of death.
"Very soon, you'd rather be dead than alive!" Jerry's eyes were hard. With a shake of his arm, the thin sword immediately formed a complex movement. With a whirring sound, it rushed toward Fade.
Seeing this, the field was once again filled with noise.
"Look at that sword skill. No wonder he is Guardian Pai's disciple."
