253 Saint Markuz (2/2)

”Mateflower, are you out of your mind?!” Duxiao was scared shitless by Mateflower's insanity. To think that he was willing to detonate himself just for killing a certain man!

He might kill the guy but everyone in the vicinity would also be killed!

”Futile resistance.” Jin Rou snorted and swung his sword behind to gather momentum. What would this mere power do anything to him? He wasn't afraid of the attack but he won't be able to protect those spectators who are watching the battle. Thus, he was planning to end this guy's life now and then.

”Please hold on, Youngmaster Jin.” However, just when Jin Rou was about to make a move, a voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears.

Soon, three figures appeared out of nowhere. The two with knight-like vibes were wearing golden armors with a giant heavy swords in their back. Everyone could tell that they had experienced countless life and death battles just from their aura they were emitting.

They were the two strongest Imperial Sovereigns of Havenleaf Constellation, Trueknight and Blujin!

In their middle was an old man with a long white beard that almost reached his feet. He was walking like a royal being with graceful bearing.

Seeing this figure, everyone had ready prostated to pay respect. Everyone knew who this old man was.

”Saint Markuz, huh.” The dark eye said in a grave tone, ”To think that the one and only Heavenly Saint of this constellation will come with his real body. The Havenleaf is taking this seriously.”

Saint Markuz. This name was all of the people of Havenleaf could recognize. In fact, even the children could recognize this being as he was one of the most popular and revered people of the constellation.

And he had the highest authority in the constellation. He was also the last line of defense against their enemies.

”I am called Markuz, Youngmaster Jin.” Saint Markuz calmly said.

”And what are you doing here, Sir Markuz?” Jin Rou asked with proper courtesy and honorifics. He could easily tell that this old man didn't come here for trouble thus he didn't mind addressing the other party properly.

”I won't beat around the bush. Please spare Mateflower and Duxiao here for their mistake. My subordinates have just been carried away since their loved ones have been killed. Tell me whatever you want and I will do everything in my power to get it.” Saint Markuz answered truthfully.

Jin Rou looked around the two injured sovereigns and shook his head, ”No, they must die. I have already spared your constellation for a few times now even back then in the Leaf Sword Sect. Now, they came provoking me with the intent to kill. I can't let that slide. Even if Ethereal Forestking were to be here, I won't change my mind.”

”…” Saint Markuz's face stiffened.

”Besides, I have nothing to ask for as I already have it all. So now, I just want you, Sir Markuz and the two other sovereigns behind you, to step back and let me finish my business.” Jin Rou didn't give the other party a leeway as he coldly said, ”Of course, I welcome challenges. If you want them to be saved, save them from my attacks, then.”
