The Last Primal

830 Chapter 830

When he heard that, Aiden frowned.

Just as he was about to retort, Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva tiptoed beside his ear and whispered.

"The Ancient One's Palace has just descended and everyone's aiming for the throne. The successors of the immortal, fiend and Buddhist sects will tacitly eliminate the other martial artists first."

"If you're alone, you'll definitely be targeted. How about coming with us for now? It will only benefit you."

In reality, Aiden had two reasons for coming here. On the one hand, it was for the Ancient One's Palace. On the other hand, he wanted to test out the elites and paragons of the so called top factions and most fearsome sects and clans!

He had no fear of being targeted at all! After all, if he was capable of surviving the assault of not one, not two but three bishops at the same time, and also overcome two Guardian Elders, he believed that there wasn't many opponents left in the Mortal realms that could truly hurt him. Perhaps those few Quasi-Divine entities but those were few and far between… and unless there were a valid reason, none of those creatures would risk their lives for mortal squabbles.

As such, he should be safe.

However, Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva was leaning towards his ear flirtatiously. Her tender voice and scent of a maiden stirred Aiden's heart and he did not reject her, as if possessed.

Right after, Aiden snapped out of his daze in a shock and lamented internally.

"Impressive! Truly impressive miss!"

Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva's charm was everywhere and it was impossible to guard against her.

As the Holy Maiden of the Pure Maidens Sect, one of the most controversial 'demonic sects' outs there, there was no need for her to cast a bewitchment technique specifically.

Her presence alone was a form of bewitchment.

The higher the power stage of the Holy Maiden, the more terrifying their power of bewitchment would be. In the end, a single smile, wink and emotion would be enough to intoxicate anyone to a point of no return.

In the martial world, there were some charming techniques that relied on wearing half-covered clothes, using flirtatious gazes, language and daring actions to seduce men.

However, compared to their own sects secret techniques and skills, those charming techniques that were available for the general public were wildly inferior.

By the end of everyday, the Holy Maiden of the Pure Maidens Sect was a peerless beauty that could overthrow the entire world. She had no equal. Pure, clean, awe-inspiring and inviolable, a single subtle flirtatious look from her eyes would be enough for an ancient mighty figure to submit to her whims.

"Humph!"

Sizing Aiden from head to toe, Bair Yohren sneered. "It's just a lover that you've found. What rights does he have to be compared to us the chosen heirs?"

"Hehe."

Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva chuckled.

"How arrogant! I wonder who were the ones who were beaten to the brink of death just recently by a sudden newcomer and lost the inheritence for the Sword Emperor… hmm? Care to tell me the name of that promising young man that humiliated you so easily?"

Upon hearing that, Bair Yohren's expression darkened and a few other young paragons looked alerted as well.

That event wasn't just the shame for Bair Yohren, but was a humiliation for them that no one was willing to speak of.

Shadow Raven swung his black iron spear and turned around after killing the last few martial artists, striding over in huge steps.

The tip of the spear fell naturally to the ground and sparks flew everywhere as it trawled the ground.

"Where's that mysterious man then? If you are talking so promising about him, where did he go then?"

Arriving in front of Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva, he asked loudly with a fiery battle intent in his eyes.

The mysterious man that Shadow Raven was referring to was naturally Aiden.

Pouting her lips, Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva rolled her eyes. "How should I know?! I know just as much about him as you."

Suddenly, Bair Yohren said. "He should be close by too. I could feel him before."

"Oh? Really?"

When the few young heirs heard that, their expressions changed and killing intent flashed through their eyes.

Pausing for a moment, Bair Yohren shook his head again. "However, I don't think he's here or at least not anymore. I didn't spot any signs of him."

Bair Yohren was thoroughly humiliated after retreating with a loss after the battle at Metal Tree Groove and there was naturally no way he would take the initiative to mention that.

The Illusion Fiend Cult heir harrumphed coldly. "At the very least that guy has got some brains."

"If he dares show himself, I'll definitely create a bloody hole in his body using my iron spear!"

Shadow Raven's expression was haughty as he slammed the iron spear in his hand onto the ground heavily. Instantly, a series of cracks appeared and his murderous aura was daunting.

Aiden's expression was calm and there were no ripples in his eyes even as they were talking about him.

Shifting his gaze, Shadow Raven sized up Aiden and nodded while smiling. "Not bad, you've got some guts. I'll forcibly acknowledge you of being qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with us fiend heirs."

Shaori An of Cloud Rain Sect remarked casually, "Since the Dark Lord of Malefic Demons Clan isn't here yet, we'll let this person replace him for now as a helper."

Waving his folding fan lightly, Shaori An looked cool and suave. Despite the fact that he had just killed more than a hundred martial artists, his clothes and hair were still neat.

"Hey, what's your name?"

Shadow Raven looked at Aiden with a slightly raised head.

"You can just call me Void Blade." Aiden replied with a calm expression.

"Void Blade, haha! What a powerful name!"

Shadow Raven laughed. "You're quite arrogant. I wonder what and how your weapon techniques are like!"

Bair Yohren remarked coldly, "In the martial world, most people with such loud, condescending titles are only so-so in terms of capabilities."

"You can try me if you are not afraid of being humiliated once again."

Aiden said indifferently.

"Mmm? Do you have a death wish?!"

Bair Yohren's expression changed as killing intent rose in his heart.

"You're wild. Interesting."

Sweeping his iron spear, Shadow Raven blocked Bair Yohren and shook his head with a stern expression. "Don't fight first. Something isn't right."

Everyone followed Shadow Raven's gaze.

The battlefield was mostly cleaned up and the only people left under the cover of the Ancient One's Palace were the successors of the most powerful sects.

Among them, successors from seven of the nine immortal sects were present, including Hart You of Sword Sect and Seehto'ch Ku'gar of Purple Firmament Sect.

From the High Priest's representatives, five of the legendary reverends were present. One woman and four men, each with their unique and most likely terrifying abilities and skills.

Of the seven fiend sects,Yang Zahn of Malefic Demons Clan was already dead and there were no signs of the Shadow Assassin from Hidden Death Assassination Sect.

Apart from Aiden, the other four demonic heirs and the demoness were present.

These nearly twenty martial artists could be considered as the top paragons of the mortal realms under the Grandmaster realm in the entire world.

Apart from Aiden, the rest of the martial artists were at peak Martial Knight realm, with a few secretly ready to advance to the Martial Master stage!

The reason why something felt amiss was that the seven paragons of the immortal sects led by Hart You of Sword Sect and Seehto'ch Ku'gar of Purple Firmament Sect as well as the four priests and one priestess seemed to be joining forces as they surrounded the demonic heirs! Two clear sides were already being drawn and the schemes were already secretly in play and the true event hasn't even started yet!

"Hart You, Seehto'ch Ku'gar, Jue Chen. What's the meaning of this?" Narrowing his gaze, Shadow Raven asked slowly.

"Nothing much."

Hart You's lips curled up and he swayed his slender fingers. "After destroying the demonic sects, we'll naturally choose someone from our side of righteous sects to take on the Ancient One's Palace's inheritance."

The demonic heirs frowned.

Including Aiden, there were only six of them facing against everyone.

However, there were a total of twelve people when the paragons of the righteous side and the High Priest's forces were added together!

In other words, each of them had to face at least two paragons!

Shadow Raven of the Overlord Palace was publicly acknowledged as the strongest among the demonic heirs.

However, he would not dare to claim victory against Hart You, Seehto'ch Ku'gar and all the other battle masters, let alone if he had to deal with two people at one go.

Holy Maiden Sylvie Deva raised her voice. "The situation is clear right now with three distinct lineages and a total of 18 martial artists. We can just fight in pairs to decide the final victor to obtain the Ancient One's Palace's inheritance. That will be considered as fairness… There's no need for the so called 'righteous forces' to scheme in such an evil manner… right?"
