Fane raised an eyebrow. That person was basically rubbing salt into Nalym's wounds. Or rather, the whole Star Continent.
To the warriors of Star Continent, Fane's name was basically taboo at this point. After all, they had lost out to Fane greatly! Hearing all the laughter from everyone else, he knew it was absurd for him to say he did not know Fane as well. However, he refused to admit it!
Fane would suffer the retribution of Star Continent eventually! That guy will suffer a tragic end. They would do everything that Fane had done to Randall and Rowan right back at Fane! They would be even crueler than Fane!
Nalym took a deep breath and said with a cold look on his face, "That guy is surely a bit skilled, but he won't dare to show himself anymore! He might have already left the place! Star Continent isn't to be messed with!"
Fane scoffed nonchalantly. That dog sure was funny. Did Nalym think that saying all that would raise his standing? Sure enough, someone immediately shot back at him.
"Stop trying to flatter yourself! If Fane was too afraid to show himself or too afraid to offend all of you, he would never have crippled Randall on the stage and killed Rowan! Do you think you're anything in Fane's eyes?! Stop trying to flatter yourself. Do you think we're blind? You think we'll listen to anything you say?"
Nalym's teeth clenched in anger. He wanted to rip everyone there apart. If it was anyone else, they would have just shut up after knowing they had lost the argument! However, Nalym was not someone who knew his place like that.
He was just as stubborn as the bearded man, and he would not allow anyone else to praise Fane. He could not accept others insulting Star Continent either. It was even worse than insulting him. That was because Star Continent was his most reliable backer. He would not allow them to be insulted!
Nalym shouted out, "All of you, shut up! I'm telling you, so what if he's strong?! He will definitely pay a painful price! His power will be taken away as well. Then, we'll hang his body around the city walls for all of you to see! We'll show you the consequences of offending Star Continent!"
Nalym had practically shouted all of that through clenched teeth. It was obvious how much he hated Fane. However, the others did not believe him at all. It was pointless no matter what he said.
Someone rebutted with a scoff, "You would have to catch him and have the skills to kill him first. Don't forget, this is the Whirling World, not the outside world. No one here is older than sixty.
"If you want to capture Fane, you would have to either be stronger than he is or catch him off guard. However, the chances are very slim. It's not like Fane is an idiot. Do you think he doesn't know what all of you want to do? Furthermore, didn't he already say that you can try and go against him at any time? We still don't know who would pay the price!"
Nalym's face was completely red. He was so angry his whole body was trembling. However, there was nothing he could say. Fane had really said that they could come at him as long as they dared! However, Nalym refused to believe that they would not be able to deal with just one person with all their numbers!
As long as they worked together, even the most powerful person in the Whirling World was nothing! Percy was nothing to scoff at either! Percy was already getting reinforcements. Fane would pay before too long!
Nalym was panting loudly as he glared at everyone there viciously. They were all just weeds. They will definitely witness Fane's downfall. Then, no one would ever insult Star Continent again!
