At that moment, the man suddenly woke u p and coughed up blood as his face turned completely white.
Overjoyed, Dax walked to the man and said, "My friend, you're finally awake.”
The man stared at Dax and asked feebly," Who...who are you?" He was cautious.
"My name is Dax Sanders. Don’t be afraid. I was the one that rescued you," Dax said. " Sir, where did you come from, and what happened?"
"You rescued me?" The man came to a realization. He said weakly, eyes fixed on Dax, "Tha-thank you, sir. I'm Callum Webb, the Sect Master of the Eternal Life Palace." 'What? Sect Master of the Eternal Life
Palace?!' Dax was stunned, his mind buzzing.
The Eternal Life Palace and the Grandmaster Heaven sect were equals. According to legend, the Sect Masters of the Eternal Life Palace and Grandmaster Heaven were extremely powerful people. Who knew he would rescue the Sect Master of Eternal Life Palace?
Dax swallowed hard. He could not help but ask, "Who hurt you so badly?”
It must have taken someone monstrous to b e able to hurt the powerful Sect Master of Eternal Life Palace so badly!
Callum coughed up more blood. It was obvious he would not last much longer. He gritted his teeth, clenched his fist, and said, "The Six Orthodox Sects. They ambushed m e..."
He weakly explained to Dax, though he kept stuttering, Dax understood his story.
Callum had an illegitimate daughter in Donghai City that he visited every once in a while. However, this time the Six Orthodox Sects found out about his visit, They have long considered the Eternal Life Palace an evil cult, so they could not let go o f the opportunity to get rid of its Sect Master.
They gathered up all of their Elders and Heads, which was about a hundred or so, and ambushed Callum. If he were to fight them one on one, Callum had nothing to worry about, but facing a hundred skilled fighters at once was tough. He barely managed to escape after he was badly injured and passed out in the woods, where Dax rescued him.
