Maxim and Celty stood up right away when they saw Kieran walk out from the shadows.
"My lord."
Both of them bowed respectfully.
The weak might not be humble but the strong would be respected, especially Maxim and Celty who had witnessed Kieran's strength consecutively. Every single time, Kieran would break the limits of their imagination. Maxim and Celty had an unusual respect for him.
Kieran didn't reply to the two of them directly, he walked over to the sofa in the small tea room and sat down.
He glanced over the two of them.
Immediately, beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.
Just like what they said earlier, both Maxim and Celty knew what kind of person Kieran was.
He had quite the tolerance when it came to his friends.
But when it came to enemies?
Kieran would show no mercy.
In the moment of life and death, even Maxim, who was always hesitant, didn't hesitate anymore.
He took in a deep breath, tidied up his thoughts and said, "Please forgive us for our rudeness just now.
"Because in the Prophecy of the Virtuous King, it was clearly mentioned that under the leadership of the Virtuous King, the cowards will become the brave, the brave will become the hero, and the hero will become the Holy Spirit — the Holy Spirit. We were blinded by the results that were about to come, so …"
"Please forgive us."
Maxim then knelt down on one knee.
Celty beside him wasn't slow either.
"We really didn't have any other thoughts!
It's just that the gap between us caused the resentment that we shouldn't have. "
"This kind of resentment …"
"What a joke!"
Celty said with a bitter smile.
Kieran still didn't reply, he just looked at the two of them. Traces of the Devil's aura slowly enveloped both of them.
It was chaotic and scorching.
It was filled with a sulfuric smell.
The cold sweat on both of them evaporated in an instant, their bodies even started to tremble uncontrollably.
The trembling went from small at the beginning to staggering like a person suffering from a serious illness. It only lasted for a few seconds. Just as the two of them were about to collapse and faint on the ground, the aura that shrouded them suddenly disappeared.
Plop.
The two of them fell onto the carpet and gasped for breath, as if they were two drowning people who had been rescued.
Kieran withdrew his gaze.
The two of them had temporarily passed his test.
Under the heavy pressure of the demonic aura, even at the very last moment, there was not the slightest bit of malice.
Of course, this was only temporary.
Kieran knew very well how complicated the human heart was.
As for the 'Virtuous King' that the two of them spoke of?
As for prophecies and legends, Kieran, who had personally experienced them several times, basically believed that they were all nonsense. However, they were just vague explanations that were mechanically applied.
In fact, under certain circumstances, anyone could fulfill the prophecy or the legend.
Of course, if someone arranged it …
That would be even more seamless.
Subconsciously, Kieran thought of the God of Earth.
Kieran frowned at the thought of the old lady's bad taste.
He wasn't as steady as he looked.
This had nothing to do with talent. It was just a flaw in his character.
At the next moment …
The door of the tea room was pushed open.
Mary and Perry Kaner walked in.
Mary went straight to the sofa beside Kieran and sat down. Perry Kaner walked to the other side of Kieran's shadow as usual.
"Perry Kaner?!"
Maxim and Celty, who had just climbed up from the carpet, were stunned when they saw the Snake School leader walk in. Both of them stared at each other with unfriendly gazes.
Likewise, the Snake School leader's gaze at the two of them wasn't friendly at all.
Viper and raven.
They weren't natural enemies.
It was just that in the process of development, there were too many conflicts and clashes between them.
Every conflict and clash would be followed by death.
Death was unforgettable.
Just like hatred.
Both of them were like fire and water.
If it wasn't for Kieran sitting there, the three of them would have started a fight.
Mary didn't doubt it at all when she saw the tit for tat between the three of them.
However, when Mary looked at Kieran, wanting to see what Kieran would do next, she realized Kieran was slowly tasting the tea and pastries on the table.
Kieran didn't have much experience with tea.
Most of the time, he would drink it in one gulp. As for whether it was good or bad, he had no idea.
But tea and pastries were different.
Kieran was carefully tasting the cooking of Warren Palace's chef.
"The flour is average, the eggs aren't completely broken, and the fermentation isn't precise but the kneading was done well.
Not bad. "
Kieran said as he put the pastry in his hand into his mouth and chewed on it.
Celty was stunned when he heard Kieran's comment.
"My lord, don't you think you are overpraising this pastry?
It's not sweet enough!
"You could even say that it doesn't have any real sweetness."
How can this kind of thing be called a pastry? "
Everyone had their own bottom line.
Some were kind.
Some were evil.
Some were picky.
Some were picky about food.
Celty was one of them.
He didn't think such a tasteless pastry could be called a pastry.
It was his bottom line and he didn't plan to change it even when he was facing Kieran.
"Hmph!
It's not a pastry if it's not sweet enough?
"Aren't salty pastries still pastries?"
Perry Kaner laughed coldly.
"How can a salty pastry be considered a pastry?
I'm afraid someone's tongue is spoiled. "
Celty glared at Perry Kaner.
"Yeah, I'm afraid someone's tongue is spoiled!
You must cut it off and feed it to the dogs! "
Perry Kaner squinted her eyes, her gaze was overflowing with killing intent.
"Dogs?
You are the one who looks more like a stray dog, don't you think?
Not right!
"I should say that you are a stray dog!"
How does it feel to be betrayed by your own? "
Celty tore open Perry Kaner's wound and started to sprinkle salt on it.
Pain rose from the bottom of Perry Kaner's heart.
Her breath became hurried.
She had to divert her attention because of that.
For example …
Cutting someone's head off.
Fuuu!
Sparks of fire burned on Celty's hand.
The Raven Sect Drifter wouldn't sit back and wait for his death when he felt Perry Kaner's killer intent. He wanted to see whether or not Perry Kaner escaped the pursuit in one piece.
However, before their battle could even begin, it was already over.
Kieran stood up from the sofa.
"My lord!"
Both of them instantly came back to their senses and realized where they were. They bowed in fear.
"Maxim, Celty, gather all the men you can and bring them to the palace."
Kieran didn't care about their actions and gave his order. He then looked at Perry Kaner and said, "Perry Kaner, have you contacted Ape Sect?"
"My lord, I'm sorry.
Back then I … "
"No, I don't mean anything else, I just hope that you can continue contacting Ape Sect and follow your original plan, tell them what you want to tell them."
Perry Kaner instinctively wanted to explain but she was interrupted by Kieran.
Ape Sect?
Maxim and Celty looked at each other.
Both of them knew how scary Ape Sect was, they wanted to persuade Kieran but before they could speak, Kieran vanished on the spot.
Mary disappeared as well.
The remaining three glanced at each other and let out a cold snort at the same time. Then, they turned around and left.
Being on the same side didn't mean harmony.
