Just as Loretta's words escaped her mouth, a huge force blasted the door into pieces. With a wave of his hand, Knight erupted a wall from the ground and shielded both him and Lia from getting hit by the debris. When the dust created by the explosion settled down, several people entered through the hold where the door was just a moment ago.
"Miss Loretta, this is?"
Gazing at the scene, the trio who had entered was a little taken aback. Soon after, one of them slightly smiled as he asked.
"Nothing much, I was only having a chat with them" Currently, the coldness in Loretta's eyes had practically disappeared in an instant, as she regained the seemingly gentle demeanor from before, while her tone was neither too friendly nor too cold.
The trio which had entered was obviously Sterling, Richard, and Milan, who were all previously stuck within the formation set by the Soul Strength cultivator. After they heard Loretta's words, their gazes turned towards Knight and Lia, as their eyebrows slightly furrowed. Naturally, they couldn't tell Knight's or Lia's cultivation level. However, they could tell by their robes that had neither the crest of a sect nor a Great house, so they automatically disregarded the fact that Knight and Lia entered the hall before them and started to look down on them in their minds.
The trio's gazes were coated with a suspicious flavor as they looked at Knight and Lia before they withdrew their gazes. The latter's lack of crest could not make them feel even the slightest bit threatened. And As far as the matter that they entered before them, they guessed that these two had some kind of artifact to dispel the formation because many artifacts could do just that, but that didn't mean these two are actually powerful or they thought.
"Miss Loretta, from the looks of it, I'm afraid the Guardian Stone already has an owner right?" Sterling took a look at the empty stone hall, as he gently chuckled and said.
���The three of you were a little bit late." Loretta blinked as she softly replied.
"Unfortunate, It's all because of that damn formation!"
Upon hearing this, Richard felt helpless, soon after, he acted high-minded as he let out a burst of hearty laughter: "However, that Miss Loretta could get it means that she is capable. Although this Guardian Stone gives one the potential to reach the Peak Heavenly Level and do miracles inside the body, the three of us do not mind. Even without it, breaking through to the Heavenly level and reaching the Peak Heavenly Level is merely a matter of time."
" I couldn't have said it better" Loretta softly chuckled. Though the veil covered her face, her beautiful features were still astonishing, causing the fire in Richard's eyes to burn even brighter.
Sterling, Richard, and Milan took little notice of Knight and Lia taking a step forward. Mere rogue cultivators like them were not enough to draw their attention.
"Stop!"
However, though the trio ignored him, Loretta bit her teeth as she shouted out.
"Oh?"
Upon seeing this normally elegant and calm Loretta unexpectedly forget herself in this manner, Sterling and the other two were stunned. Soon after, their eyebrows once again furrowed, as their gazes shifted towards Knight and Lia. They were not fools, Loretta's reaction differed somewhat from usual.
"Miss Loretta, is there anything else?" Knight calmly asked and now, even Lia looked fearless and looked straight into Loretta's eyes because she had seen the true power of Knight.
At this time, she could not possibly speak like before right? However, this woman was intelligent, she only paused a little before her indifferent voice sounded out: "We still have some things to discuss, Loretta will follow you out and find a place to continue our little chat, how does that sound?"
She said and turned her gaze towards Sterling and the two beside him.
"Master Sterling, Loretta will first bid her farewells. If I have time, I will come and visit again." After saying these words, Loretta bowed towards Sterling and the other two, before she slowly walked towards Knight under the trio's astonished gazes.
As they stared at Loretta's elegant figure, Sterling's and the other two's eyebrows knitted together even more tightly. At this time, even an idiot could tell that something must have happened between Knight and the former.
Among the trio, the most prideful Richard's eyes could not help but slightly narrow. He stared at Knight's back, as he adjusted the jade ring on his thumb.
While Lia was looking at Loretta, another group of figures rushed in through the hoe. At the head of the group, was Dexter, Martian, and the rest.
When Dexter and the rest entered, they quickly spotted Knight. A sneer flashed across the former's face as they quickly swarmed towards Richard, before softly speaking into his ear.
Witnessing this scene, Knight slightly shook his head thinking about the time he now had to waste with another fight. Lia also knew that these guys were definitely talking about the incident about Knight crushing Dexter's Energy Armament and taking away the Silver Hammer.
"We can go now"
While Lia was counting at the people who would try to attack him, Loretta's indifferent voice once again sounded out.
"Wait a moment."
However, just as she planned to leave this place first, a calm voice suddenly rang out in front of him as expected.
"It's him"
After hearing this voice, Knight slowly exhaled in his heart. In the end, Martian might get what he wanted from him.
Richard's voice rang out in the stone hall, as Knight turned his gaze to look at the former, before casting a glance towards the sneering Dexter and the rest behind
"You want something?" he calmly asked while Martian and his friends looked a bit tensed looking at the situation.
"You've snatched my House Moonwin's Energy Armament, do you really think you can just leave like this?" Richard replied in an indifferent voice.
hearing these words, Martian's expression darkened because dealing with Dexter was one thing but dealing with Richard is a whole different thing. However before he could say anything, he heard Knight's calm voice again.
"I don't recall taking anything of yours"
"Bastard, don't think of lying. You destroyed my Energy Armament using evil techniques and snatched away the Hammer that I obtained first" Dexter coldly snorted as he said.
Seeing him lie through his teeth showing no shame on his face, Knight couldn't help but burst into laughter. This guy's ability to lie so boldly was truly amazing.
This sudden change also caused the crowd to understand that there were some discrepancies between what happened and what he had said. Regarding what had actually happened, the crowd really did not care, because everyone knew that the people of House Moonwin were usually arrogant and domineering. Since Knight was alone today, given Dexter's and the rest's status, they would definitely not let this issue rest so easily.
"Miss Loretta, this is a grudge between my House Moonwin and this person." Richard casually looked towards Knight before declaring this to Loretta.
Though he did not finish his words, Loretta understood his intention. Saying nothing, she slowly took two steps back, showing that she would not interfere.
Knight did not find her actions unexpected as he knew what was going on inside her head. First, if he died fighting them, she could snatch away his space ring, and second, she would no longer owe him anymore if he's dead.
Sterling and Milan merely gazed at the scene from an aloof point of view except Milan's gaze scanned Lia from top to bottom for a moment.
"Dexter, don't lie, David obtained that hammer first, when did he use an evil technique? Everyone in the hall knew what really happened" While the crowd was waiting to see a good show, a charming voice suddenly rang out. The crowd turned, only to find that it was Martian.
Upon seeing Martian open his mouth to speak, Dexter's expression slightly changed, while Richard's eyebrows furrowed a little. He did not expect that the Lakewood academy people would actually step in.
"Martian, stop talking nonsense, and don't interfere in a Great family's matters!" To one side, Sterling's coldly said. His eyebrows had also furrowed when he saw that Martian had actually spoken out.
"Brother Sterling, David is a friend of Lakewood Academy." Martian hastily said. Richard was usually very bossy, today, this matter may only be solved if Sterling stepped in. And in front of House Windfield, Lakewood academy paled in comparison in terms of power and connections. Besides, Lakewood academy's head current head was a member of the Windfield House, so Martian had to respect Sterling.
"I have never seen these two in Lakewood, which family do they hail from?" Sterling was taken aback, his eyebrow knitted together as he looked at Knight and Lia.
"He...he is from the Avelon Continent'' Martian bit his teeth and said. He knew that compared to Elvelon, the status of the Avelon continent was extremely low, because most of the Avelon continent's land was occupied by resourceless outerlands, unlike Elvelon which was extremely rich in natural resources like Life Energy, Life stone deposits, and various riches.
"Avelon continent huh?" Sterling took his head, a look of indifference in his eyes. If Knight was truly a student of Lakewood, he might reluctantly step in. However, since he was from another continent who had no ties to the Great families, there was no need. It truly was not worthwhile to sour the relationship with the House Moonwin for a so-called friend of Martian's.
"You no longer need to care about this matter." Upon hearing Sterling's indifferent tone, Martian's heart turned cold.
Knight stood on the spot calm as clear water. He was able to hear the contempt in Sterling's voice. Although he had no idea about his origin or power, it was evident that the latter did not once think of him as someone who could kill him before he says the word 'shit'.
"I did not expect that they were friends of Lakewood. Since that is the case, I should not make things too difficult for them. Sterling, you shall settle this matter." Richard chuckled as he said.
He nodded as his gaze turned towards Knight and Lia, considering for a moment before he said: "Since you have a little relation to Lakewood, I will be the judge for you this time. How about this, hand over the Energy Armament, then apologize to Dexter and the rest, and we shall drop this matter."
After hearing these words, Martian's pretty face once again changed.
"You want me to apologize?"
He asked with a little chuckle, but Lia could sense the beast in his awakening by feeling the murderous aura around him. He stared at Sterling's arrogant face, letting out another cold laugh as he said,
"You guys are really dumb!"
