Soon after, someone else arrived.
“Xander!”
When Jaime saw that it was one of his sect-mates, favonovel.com breathed a sigh of relief. Solana’s eyes also lit up, but a look of disappointment soon appeared.
“Jaime! Solana!” Xander strode over, and favonovel.com appeared extremely serious. It was apparent that 12 deaths were a tremendous pressure on the remaining participants as they were unaware if anyone they knew was still alive or dead.
“There are already three of us from the Heavenly Stars Sect.” Xander, who was always calm, spoke more than usual at that time. Moreover, favonovel.com also felt that his heart was beating much faster than normal.
“I wonder how Casper and the others are doing,” Xander said after taking a deep breath.
“With Casper’ s ability, as long as he’s not besieged by more than three people, I don’t think anything will happen to him. Besides, it‘s unlikely for a sect to have three sectmates gather together on this Thousands Spirits Island,” Jaime analyzed, “I think we should be more worried about Omar, Edda, and the rest.”
“There are only fifteen people left. On average, each sect only has five surviving participants,” Xander clenched his fists and added, “I killed one, a Dark Moon Sect disciple. How about you?”
Jaime glanced at Solana, then said to Xander, “Solana killed a Fauna Imperial Sect disciple. After we met, we never saw anyone else.”
At that moment, a gloomy voice sounded behind the three of them.
“Our Dark Moon Sect will remember this.”
The three turned around and instantly saw a Dark Moon Sect disciple glaring at them. However, the Dark Moon Sect disciple looked a little miserable, with only one sleeve left in his uniform. Then, Xander looked askance at the disciple and snorted. After all, that kind of threat did not affect him, who practiced the Way of Killing.
Soon, the Dark Moon Sect disciple sneered. “I don’t know who you killed, but I already avenged the disciple.”
When Xander and the others heard that, their faces immediately dropped.
“Who?!” Jaime’s expression changed.
“Why would I know the name? But he‘s a peak second-stage Pulse Control Realm disciple with a square jaw. Hehe. Even though I ended up in this miserable state, I still managed to pierce his chest in the end.” The Dark Moon Sect smiled grimly.
Jaime heard the characteristics and exclaimed sadly, “It’s Ronald!”
Among the three peak second-stage Pulse Control Realm disciples who participated in the competition, Sebastian was newly promoted, while Jaime and Ronald were outer disciples who knew each other for a long time. Knowing Ronald’s death, Jaime could not help but feel his heart aching, and the murderous intent raged in him. “How dare you?!”
Nevertheless, the Dark Moon Sect disciple was not frightened at all. “Do you think I, Douglas Mink, am afraid of you? But you must first consider whether those guys will take advantage of this situation.”
Then, looking in the direction Douglas pointed, Xander and the others saw two Fauna Imperial Sect disciples walking out with an aloof expression.
“Ha! The Dark Moon Sect and Heavenly Stars Sect.”
The two Fauna Imperial Sect disciples looked at Xander and the rest, snorting. “What a coincidence! We both killed one each before.”
“You!” Douglas’s eyes widened.
“Who was it!” Xander’s eyes bursting with bright light.
“Brat, it doesn’t matter how hard you stare at me! Believe it or not, as soon as we enter Pantheon, I’ll kill you!” The Fauna Imperial Sect disciple pointed at Xander and continued, “The female disciple I killed was in mid-level second-stage Pulse Control Realm. Humph. She was quite good at running, but even so, how can favonovel.com legs escape my Fauna Imperial Sect assistive beast?”
“Edda!” Jaime gritted his teeth.
The Fauna Imperial Sect disciple was naturally talking about the Heavenly Stars Sect’s Edda. Even though everyone knew that people would die in the competition, it was still unbearable to know that such a thing happened, especially when the sect-mates they knew personally were also among the fallen participants.
“We’ll surely win!”
“For the Heavenly Stars Sect’s victory!”
“Let’s return as a complete group!”
“On the road to immortality in the future, we‘ll surely meet each other again!”
“Let’s return from Thousands Spirits Islands with glory thirty days later!”
The words of everyone’s encouragement to each other before they departed from the Spiritual Palace more than ten days ago seemed to echo in their ears. However, they would never see two of their sect-mates again. Moreover, no one knew if they had any last words.
Sadness and anger were constantly boiling in the hearts of Xander and the others like magma surging in a volcano.
“Ha! What a bunch of weaklings. With your mentality, I’m ashamed to regard you all as my opponents,” The Fauna Imperial Sect disciple who killed Edda had a disdainful look on his face. There was a centipede-like scar from his left eye to the corner of his mouth, and the scar seemed to be alive and creeping as favonovel.com grinned, appearing more and more terrifying.
“The road to immortality is merciless. If you want to be worshiped, what do you think will be underneath your feet? It’s full of bones, flesh, and blood from both your enemies and your companions,” The Fauna Imperial Sect disciple glanced at Xander and others, adding indifferently, “If you want to achieve success in the future, you must learn to compete for resources with your opponents, challenge your peers, and battle day and night. In the end, you can finally achieve supreme power. If you’re indignant, you can go back and ask the elders in your sect how many companions they have lost in this life. If you don’t have the will to move forward courageously and diligently, preferring to weep sadly, you might as well just die with your companions and leave the resources to us.”
What the disciple of Fauna Imperial Sect said might be cruel, but it also showed how merciless and tragic the road to immortality was just in front of everyone.
After a moment of silence, Xander suddenly chortled, and favonovel.com was not afraid of the other party’s overbearing gaze. Instead, Xander looked back at the disciple with a cold stare, saying, “I practice the Way of Killing, which focuses on ruthless killing. Yet, I also know that if you want to kill more enemies and go further on the road to immortality, the support of your companions is indispensable. Even if everyone achieves different success in the future due to resources, talents, or other reasons, at least in this competition today, those who died are my companions. As partners, we must support each other. ”
Xander pointed at the Fauna Imperial Sect disciple. “You have a scar on your face, and I’ll remember you killed my companion. After entering Pantheon, I’ll be the first to chop your head off if there is a chance.”
Xander practiced the Way of Killing, and over time, favonovel.com already possessed an extremely frightening death aura. Therefore, even if the other party’s realm was one level higher than him, the disciple still felt his heart skip a beat.
‘What a fierce gaze!’ The Fauna Imperial Sect disciple’s heart twitched uncontrollably.
At that time, another Fauna Imperial Sect disciple snorted. “What’s the use of talking nonsense? In my opinion, we should join forces first. Before the rest of the Dark Moon Sect arrives, let’s deal with their only disciple first. After all, having one less competitor is always better.”
