"Ahh!!"
Blood wildly sprayed out. The sound of glass shattering reverberated. Master Zhao violently stumbled backward. He eventually couldn't keep his balance, falling straight to his ass.
Chaotic invading essence stormed through his body. And his right arm had exploded into a chilling sight of blood and peeled off flesh.
His body slightly trembles. The reverberations of the shockwave rattled up through his spine.
Silence instantly captures the world.
The silver sun members and the silver falcon members silently stared at Master Zhao. And then stared at Cain in complete bewilderment.
None of them dared to believe their eyes. A Divine Star expert had completely overwhelmed a Holy King master!
It did not matter that Master Zhao was caught unprepared. His Laws should be impossible to counter. Yet, higher realm suppression did not matter in the slightest.
"Jumping up two realms to suppress a Holy King...just how...could it be...?!" As they came back to reality, a terrifying realization soon struck across the silver falcon woman's face. Horror gradually filled her eyes.
The same harrowing emotion spread to every Holy King master there. There could be only one case where a combat prowess can be this tremendously high.
'A Divine Mortal!'
The very legend had appeared before them. A genius of untold prowess. They all have powers that seemed completely fantastical to even other cultivators.
Losing to a Divine Mortal was not strange at all. One can say it's even inevitable!
Even more horror dawned on the silver sun members' faces. Trickles of cold sweat pour down their brows.
They acted so haughtily, so domineering, before. Which led them to completely offend a Divine Mortal!
There was no time to regret their actions. The silver sun members began speaking to each other in transmissions.
'No time to think! We need to rectify-' But the silver sun group leader's thoughts could not finish.
Not when the silver falcon members took the opportunity to strike while the iron was hot!
"You see what happens when you think everything in the universe revolves around you? We may be Holy King masters, but it doesn't mean we can grasp worlds in our palms! It's only your own foolish that you ended up in a disaster." The silver falcon group leader coldly said. He showed his full stance behind Cain.
The other members did not hesitate to join in.
"That bravado of yours is nowhere to be seen now. Do you all still want to throw your weight around?" The other male member disdainfully sneered.
"Right, right? If you really want to press on our previous issue, we're more than willing to continue 'discussing.'" Joyful glee leaked from the silver falcon woman's lips.
All of their resentment piled on, smashing down on the silver sun members with the weight of several mountains.
"You..." The silver sun members all violently clenched down on their palms. Their frustration and killing intent nearly burst open!
Though they weren't touched on their faces, each of them felt a searing burn blaze across their cheeks.
This kind of shame absolutely should not be tolerated. Especially as they are Holy King masters.
However, their option to retaliate was very limited. They already could not win in a fair situation. Now with a Divine Mortal whose prowess can suppress ordinary early Holy King, pressing further would be utterly foolish.
The silver sun group leader took a long, deep breath. As his other member went to help Master Zhao, the group leader slowly said, "Sir, I know our actions were brash. But, I believe it is much better to combine our abilities than for us to split apart. It was not a lie that this place holds a trap very troublesome to us Holy Kings."
"Is that right?" Cain spoke with a small, forming smile. He continued to speak before anyone else, saying, "Just moments ago, you wanted to rob us, break my body, or potentially kill me. Now you want to work together? My apologies. I don't have the habit of working with enemies. Now then, scram out of my sight. We will be the ones who will continue first."
His domineering words penetrated into both the silver sun members' minds and chests. Their breathings hitched. Never before had they been looked down upon! Even telling them to scram.
For as calm as the group leader was trying to be, that kind of arrogance made his expression ugly to the extreme.
The silver falcon members did not waste this chance either. Their leader coldly snorted. "I agree with martial brother sentiment. You all are nothing but troublesome bothers. Why do we need to travel with potential threats? It would be best for you to get lost."
"Wha-waht did you-" Master Zhao could not take the anger in his gut. He was right in the middle of erupting solely at the silver falcon members.
But a firm hand on his shoulder stopped him. He looked over, only to see his group leader calmly shaking his head. This was the only signal he'll get.
Resentment crawled through Master Zhao. Yet, his only option was to stop. A chilling glint simmered in the depths of his eyes.
The same amount of killing intent spread to his other members.
But the group leader kept up his calm facade, "Since we are all in agreement, we shall take our leave first."
Luminious silver glow of flames shrouded the silver sun member's bodies. Their Holy Laws surged. None of them wanted to waste a second here any longer.
Their bodies tore through the void, trailing right back to the start of the Frost Islands.
The dust settled in practically an instant. The silver falcon member was still a bit shocked at how smoothly everything went down.
Small sighs escaped their lips. The prestige and power of a Divine Mortal went even beyond the legends. None of them would be able to forget this matter for the rest of their lives.
At this time, Cain had finally recalled his powers. That all-powerful aura mincing apart the atmosphere instantly vanished. Such a sudden change jolted the silver falcon members back to reality.
Weariness, caution, and awe filled their gazes while staring at Cain.
Cain ignored the pointed stares and said, "It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I hope you all don't mind if I ask some questions? And just who are you guys?"
The silver falcon leader was quick to sober up. He calmly smiled and spread his palms. "We don't mind any questions, young martial brother. My name is Master Tan. And these two are my fellow martial siblings, Master Su and Lim. Since young martial brother graciously helps us, you can ask us of anything."
"Indeed, young martial brother. It really is the luck of the heavens for us to meet and for you two to help us." Master Su smilingly nodded, her lips curling into a beautiful scenery.
Master Lim had also given his thanks through a respectful bow.
At this point, Lan Rui had already reached besides Cain. Her presence seemed completely dim compared to Cain. But none of the Holy King masters dares to call it out. They simply gave a warm smile to her.
Cain calmly said, "My name is Lee, and this is my friend, Lan Rui. We're out here in the Frost Islands for a specific item. It seems you all are from a Holy Land, correct? Are you out here for the same goal?"
There wasn't a need to cover up their names. They were unknown, hence, Cain could be very causal.
"Indeed we are. We hail from the Silver Falcon Holy from River City. This is a bit of a rare event, actually. We high elders would typically stay in our Holy Land to hold down the fort. However, there have been rumors of an exceptional item deep within the Frost Islands. Something greatly helpful to even Holy King masters. It is called the Spiritual Black Charm." Master Tan calmly explained.
His words slightly startled Master Lim, Su, and Cain.
Slight concerns clouded Master Lim's and Su's minds. They wanted to speak up. After all, wouldn't it be very well possible that the Divine Mortal is looking for the same time? They would be at an impasse if it were so.
And given the previous demonstration, none of them were willing to make an enemy of Cain. These concerns plagued their minds.
But Master Lim and Su chose to stay silent in the end. They still hold full trust in their martial brother. He wasn't chosen as the group leader for no reason.
The words of the Spiritual Black Charm sent ripples in Cain's mind. He instantly recalled Yulong's words. Fulfilling her promise was something he intended to do.
It didn't matter to him that he'll need to potentially go up against three Holy King masters. In his mind, Yulong was far more valuable.
Still, Cain kept his face completely indifferent. He casually said, "I see...never heard of that item. But it's unrelated to our matter."
There was no reason to make these Holy King masters guard against him by asking more questions.
Thus, Cain shifted the focus of the conversation. He gazed around this section of the island, noting it was mainly a vast stretch of land without the usual divine trees or bushes. "There seems to be a problem with this current trap? Going off that previous argument, this something being able to stump Holy King masters?"
The silver falcon let out a secret sigh of relief. They would truly be stunted if Cain had shown considerable interest in the Spiritual Black Charm.
