He did not want all his clan brothers to die here, but when Fane said those words, both his expression and tone were calm. An unspeakable self-confidence filled his heart, and Albion could not help but wonder if Fane really possessed this kind of power.
After thinking for a long time, he finally deigned to open his mouth. His voice was a little low but had an unquestionable tone to it. "We can do it but can you?"
Jed’s hair stood on end when he heard the question. He turned to Albion and said, "Brother Albion, don't tell me you're seriously considering it? What is there except for death if we go head-on against those four who are in the final stage of innate level? Didn't you hear Robin when he said he will torture us? Everyone will eventually die but I want to die with dignity, not this way!"
Albion stopped his nagging with a wave of his hand. He took a deep breath and then said, "I don't actually know what to do. The best thing to do now is of course to retreat but do you think we can? We might end up dead anyways..."
Robin and the rest of them patiently waited for their unending conversation to finish. They did not mind watching them struggle since they were like fishes in a barrel right now. This would only make what was going to happen next more enjoyable for them. They
all loved to watch their prey put up a final resistance.
Jed threw up his hands in frustration. "You're all mad! One mad person is enough and yet all of you chose to follow this mad person!”
Dwight frowned, stretched out his hand to grab Jed’s arm, and pull him behind. "Keep your mouth shut from now on. Can you do something other than nagging?" He really wanted to warn Jed that previously, they had treated Fane with the same attitude, and yet he was the one who saved them in the end. Although Dwight did not believe that Fane could create another miracle as it was not possible but it was still better than nothing.
Fane nodded and turned toward Robin again. "Don’t let any of them escape. Spare no one." The words came out steadily from his lips.
Robin laughed wildly when he heard those words. He thought that Fane was an interesting soul. Those lines should be uttered by Robin. Did Fane think that by saying that, he would let them go?
Derek looked at Fane as if he was stupid. "To be honest, I have seen a lot of fools over the years, but I must say that you take the cake!"
Fane scoffed and winked at Nash, who then nodded and quickly hid behind a thick tree. Robin and the other three would be suspicious if anyone other than Nash did that but they ignored him since he was the weakest of them all. To them, those in the final stage of acquired level were like ants that could easily be killed with a stomp.
Fane took a step forward and stretched out his hand to take out ten gray-black daggers from the Mustard Seed Spirit Ship. These ten gray-black daggers floated in front of him and were radiating a gray-black glow.
Seeing this, Robin and the others widened their eyes. Robin sneered and said, "Looks like you're really going to take us on! Your courage is commendable, boy!" 5
Fane said nothing. With a flick of his wrists, rays of gray-black light flowed from his palms. Under these circumstances, actions speak louder than words.
