People all over the cultivator's world called Darryl scum because of Florian's false accusations against him.
Even though many years had passed since the incident, Darryl still could not get over it. He was still angry whenever he recalled that.
Darryl wanted to rush forward, but he held back when he remembered that he was in disguise.
At the same time, Darryl was also a little suspicious.
Florian had always been timid. He would not have made an appearance even if he was much more powerful than before. Yet, he blatantly went onto the stage to challenge Quincy?
Darryl had not realized that the person on the stage only appeared to be Florian, but the soul within that body was Donoghue's.
"Florian?"
Quincy reacted; she said coldly, "Why are you here? This is a tournament, and it has nothing to do with you. Get out of here now." She sounded firm.
Quincy had heard about Florian framing Darryl for his dirty deeds. She was an upright person, and so, she hated cunning and despicable people.
She thought that a menace was not qualified to participate in the tournament.
Donoghue laughed.
He knew that Quincy was disgusted with Florian. He said with a faint smile, "Your Highness, even though I do not belong to any sects, I am also a member of the Nine Mainland. Today's matter is related to the safety of the Nine Mainland. How can I be unconcerned about it?"
"You—"
Quincy's face flushed; she did not know how to refute the statement.
Donoghue smiled. "Are you afraid that you’d lose, Your Highness?" he said playfully. At the same time, he was throwing glances at Xenia and the other Nine Saint Oracles.
Donoghue knew that the Nine Saint Oracles' identities were real because of Cynthia's Nascent Power in him. He could sense the same Nascent Soul in all of them.
Donoghue did not care about the oracles. He only wanted their Nascent Powers so that he could fight against the King of the Dead.
"Who said that I'm afraid of losing?"
