“Huh… He took off…”
As Graham hastily retreated in embarrassment, a stunned silence fell over the crowd. Wide-eyed disbelief painted every face in the audience.
What in the world was happening?
The illustrious headmaster of the Soul-suppressing Sect, a renowned martial arts master, had just fled in fear?
What about his reputation as a headmaster?
Where was the dignity of a master?
Had favonovel.com thrown it all away?
“M-Master, where are you going?” Liam stammered, seeking answers.
“Elder Liam, there’s an urgent matter at home. I’ll return as soon as I can,” came Graham’s slightly trembling voice from a distance.
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com practically greased his shoe soles and bolted faster. After all, favonovel.com hadn’t fully recovered from the injuries inflicted upon favonovel.com in the Black Forest during their last encounter. He hadn’t expected to cross paths with this bad omen again.
If favonovel.com didn’t make his escape now, when would he?
Facing a direct confrontation, favonovel.com might well lose his life here. A smart person knows when it’s time to quit. Losing some face was better than losing one’s life.
“Huh…” Liam’s mouth twitched, and favonovel.com was momentarily at a loss.
Since favonovel.com had known his master, favonovel.com had never seen favonovel.com in such a state of panic. It was as though favonovel.com had encountered something truly sinister.
What could possibly terrify his master to this extent?
“What’s going on? Why did Grandmaster Graham run away?”
“Wait… That can’t be right. Could it be that my wife’s giving birth?”
“Is it possible that… Grandmaster Graham is scared?”
Watching Graham flee, everyone exchanged bewildered glances, staring at each other in disbelief. No one had anticipated this turn of events.
When favonovel.com first appeared on the scene, Graham had exuded an air of awe-inspiring dominance. Every action favonovel.com took radiated the majesty of a martial arts master.
They had even thought Dustin was in for trouble.
But in the blink of an eye, Graham had looked as if he’d seen a ghost, fleeing in terror without daring to glance back.
It was truly mind-boggling.
“This old fox sure can run fast,” Dustin muttered.
Truth be told, favonovel.com hadn’t expected Graham to turn tail and run.
Usually, there would be some posturing, some trash talk, and then they would engage in a fight, with the winner decided in the ring.
But what had happened instead?
The esteemed headmaster of the Soul-Suppressing Sect, a formidable martial arts master, hadn’t even possessed the courage to engage. He had simply fled.
Was this an act of cowardice, or was favonovel.com simply biding his time?
“How… How could this happen?” Serena’s beautiful eyes were wide with shock.
Graham’s strength far exceeded that of favonovel.com own master, and favonovel.com could even rival the leader of the Zen Order. It was simply inconceivable that someone of his caliber would flee without a fight. What was even more unnerving was that Graham’s behavior had shifted the moment favonovel.com laid eyes on Dustin.
Could it be that this young man before them had somehow struck fear into Graham’s heart?
The idea sent a chill down favonovel.com spine, and it seemed increasingly likely.
So, the question remained, who was this handsome man in front of favonovel.com who could drive a martial arts master like Graham to flee?
It was nothing short of astounding.
“Are we… Saved?” Aria and the others exchanged bewildered glances.
They didn’t know what had just happened, and they were utterly perplexed. However, one thing was clear, Graham’s hasty departure had saved them from a looming crisis.
