Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown
Chapter 650 Essential Spiritual Energy
Zachary walked to the center of the stage and faced Saul. The two of them glared at one another so hard that sparks shot out from their eyes. The audience was holding their breaths, looking forward to their competition.
"Before we start, I have a question to ask you, Saul," Zachary suddenly said.
"Okay. Whatever you want to ask, just do it. Let's hurry up, and stop wasting time," Saul said in disdain.
"The Xuanyuan Clan is the largest force in the Devil Kingdom. All the other clans have been following under your leadership. Generally speaking, people from such a clan wouldn't waste their time taking part in such a race, which is why I'm very curious now. I wonder if you're participating on behalf of yourself or on behalf of the Xuanyuan Clan," Zachary said with a faint smile on his face.
"I don't think your question has anything to do with our competition. What does it matter why I'm here? It's the same thing." Saul snorted.
"No, you're wrong. There is a big difference between the two possibilities. If you came here on behalf of yourself, I will show you mercy. I wouldn't want you to be a laughingstock when you return home. But if you come here on behalf of the Xuanyuan Clan, it would be remiss of me to show you mercy. Both the Xiao Clan and the Xuanyuan Clan are leading clans in the Devil Kingdom. Our clan will surely surpass yours and become the number one clan in the Devil Kingdom one day. For that reason, I'll have to view you as a strong opponent that I have to defeat," Zachary smirked snidely.
His words caused an uproar among the audience around the stage. They all felt that Zachary's unscrupulous behavior was exceedingly arrogant. His hostile words towards the Xuanyuan Clan in front of so many spectators sounded rather bold, so as the way he was challenging Saul.
Saul's face darkened at his words. He hadn't expected Zachary to provoke him so openly, but he still tried his best to suppress his anger. He came here to defeat Zachary and get engaged to Vivian. His purpose was to help the Xuanyuan Clan quash the development of the Xiao Clan's influence. Therefore, he couldn't lose his temper so easily under such provocation.
However, not everyone disagreed with Zachary's behavior. Jaxon and the other members of th
s in the race. Winning this challenge would mean he already had one foot in the Xiao Clan. What was more important was, if he did win and Vivian chose to refuse him, the Xuanyuan Clan would then have an excuse to make trouble for the Xiao Clan. And if Vivian didn't refuse him, the Xuanyuan Clan could restrict the Xiao Clan by virtue of the marriage. So, both scenarios would be bad for the Xiao Clan.
"Father, if Saul wins, then we will have no choice but to involve those people we'd readied in the next round," Vivian whispered to Jaxon. She realized how serious things were at that moment. Of course, the only reason she had allowed this race to take place was that she had been well prepared for it. She would never put the Xiao Clan at risk.
"Of course. But Harley hasn't shown his treasure yet. Let's wait and see." Jaxon remained composed.
"I'm afraid it would be very difficult for him to win now. After all, the essential spiritual energy is very rare. It's a necessary treasure to cultivate the spiritual soul. Most Imperial Level treasures are inferior to it. Even the treasures born by rare treasure beasts may not be as valuable," Vivian said, shaking her head. She had to admit that Saul's trump card was superior, which went beyond her expectations.
At this moment, everyone present fixed their eyes on Zachary. They all wondered how he would react now that Saul had taken out the essential spiritual energy. Like Vivian, they felt that Zachary might not be able to win this time around.
