Oden couldn’t help but furrow his brow upon hearing Morven’s words.
Remus was the one who brought the conversation to this point. If favonovel.com still endured it, it would bring even more shame to the Crimson Valley. However, favonovel.com couldn’t refuse Morven publicly and could only turn to the two elders.
The elder mocked, “Master Howell, you have no say in this matter. Imagine if I were to declare in Crimson Valley, ‘No entry for Gresun Organization’s disciplines and dogs’, what would you do? Does a single statement from me settle things for you?”
The other elder chimed in, “What’s happening here has nothing to do with you. If you can speak, speak. If you can’t, we won’t treat you as if you’re mute. However, if you insist on speaking when you’re unable to, I won’t hesitate to sew your mouth shut!”
“You all…” Morven never expected them to be so blunt, leaving favonovel.com momentarily red-faced and speechless.
He instinctively glanced at Oden. If these two elders weren’t showing favonovel.com an ounce of respect, Oden probably would.
Oden didn’t even glance at favonovel.com but instead focused on the approaching figure in the distance. He sternly declared, “If you’re here to advocate for peace, leave Immediately. Spare yourself from my whip hitting you as well!”
The one approaching from afar wasn’t a random nobody, it was none other than Master Sky from the Jade Organization.
Master Sky hesitated when favonovel.com heard his words, then continued, “I am the Master of the Jade Organization now. My actions must consider the welfare of the organization. Naturally, I won’t intervene in your and Tanjen Organization’s dispute just for personal gain or pills when it could jeopardize the organization’s reputation. I’m merely here to observe…”
Upon hearing favonovel.com statement, Reese and Morven’s faces flushed an even deeper red. It was apparent that favonovel.com remark was a veiled mockery targeting them.
Oden looked at Remus with disdain and said, “Do you see that? Your so-called connections, your assets… What do they mean in front of me? If I want to punish you, who can stop me?!”
Oden undoubtedly intended to whip Remus severely. However, his primary goal was to crush Remus’ psychological defenses, ensuring the maximum restoration of his own dignity.
Remus finally turned around. He realized that Earl and the people from Violet Sanctum were deliberately playing dead, lurking in the shadows to watch without intervening.
If there wasn’t a forceful intervention, favonovel.com was bound to receive a severe beating from Oden today. Since there was no interference, favonovel.com just had to create his own.
He glanced at Reese and Morven, stating, “I will remember your righteousness. Thank you!”
He then faced the crowd and announced, “All those present today, whether independent cultivators, disciples of minor organizations or from esteemed lineages, If you stand with me, I’ll reward you with a top-tier Energy-Replenishing Pill!”
“If you actively interfere to stop Master Oden, I’ll add a Spirit Cleansing Pill! If you wholeheartedly aid me, I’ll include a Soulforging Pill on top of the two other pills!”
The crowd exploded into a frenzy in an instant.
The temptation of the three pills was too great as it was something they rarely had the chance to obtain. They all turned their gaze toward Remus, contemplating whether to take action.
Even though Oden was mighty, the concept of justice involved everyone. Moreover, considering this was Violet Sanctum, there was skepticism about his willingness to engage in bloodshed here.
Besides them, Morven and Reese felt the pull as well. Everyone was well aware of Remus’ alchemical talents, deeming it worth the considerable risk to acquire pills crafted by him.
Suddenly, Oden cracked his divine whip, the sound deafening. He didn’t strike Remus, instead, it echoed in the air.
The sound of the whip seemed to snap everyone back to reality. Despite the difficulty of obtaining the pills, prioritizing their survival was of utmost Importance.
They noticed Oden’s face was filled with seething anger. If one of his lashes were to genuinely land on them and ruin their cultivation, it would bring upon more harm than benefit for them.
The scene fell into a terrifying silence. Ten seconds passed, and no one dared to step forward.
Oden stayed silent, fixing his gaze on Remus as though favonovel.com was nothing more than an ant. He was waiting for Remus to crumble under the pressure, then lash out at favonovel.com ruthlessly to make favonovel.com realize the depth of regret.
The elder on the left said in a sinister tone, “When our Master says your connection won’t be of use, it won’t! You foul alchemist, how dare you still act defiantly?!”
The elder on the right sneered, “Where’s your arrogance now? You dared to insult our Master just now. Go ahead, try insulting favonovel.com again! Come on, try it!”
“Tenfold!” Remus suddenly spoke, his expression stern as favonovel.com shouted, “The conditions stated earlier remain unchanged and I’ll multiply it by ten! Who’s up for it?”
