The Wolf’s Bride

After saying that, the Turtle Sage turned away. “I’ll spare your lives this time. Don’t come looking for trouble again next time.”

Andrius did not speak

In his current state, even speaking would take all his effort.

Kate hesitated. In the end, she helped Andrius up, and the two of them stumbled away.

“Gah…”

As soon as they disappeared, the Turtle Sage could not help but spew out a mouthful of blood. It stained the ice–like ground in a shocking sight.

“That boy…” The Turtle Sage watched Andrius and Kate leave and could not help but smile wryly. “That fierceness was like a madman fighting for his life… If the fight continued, there might have been some unexpected consequences today.”

After muttering to himself, the Turtle Sage shook his head and returned to his secret chamber. Just as he was about to sit cross–legged and force out the potent blood unique to Andrius…

At that moment, the Turtle Sage felt the presence of a vague killing intent.

In that instant, that killing intent locked onto him. Then, it intensified tenfold or even a hundredfold!

The Turtle Sage stood up in surprise, his eyes flashing fiercely. He roared in all directions, ” Who’s sneaking around? Show yourself!”

No one answered.

However, the Turtle Sage could sense the place where the killing intent was pervasive. A figure was rapidly approaching, and the target was his current location.

“Hmph… I want to see what kind of sneaky character you are!”

Just as the Turtle Sage spoke…

Swoosh-

A black shadow lunged at the Turtle Sage’s back. Even from a distance, the formidable power shocked him.

Whoosh!

He did not dare to be careless and immediately swooped to the side, narrowly avoiding the attack.

Then, his expression darkened as he looked at the person. The person was draped in a black robe, and their face was covered with a mask, hiding their true features.

This made the Turtle Sage frown deeply. It was rare for a master with such speed and strength to hide themselves.

“As expected of the Turtle Sage.”

As the Turtle Sage examined the newcomer, the newcomer also observed him and said with a smile, “Even while suffering internal injuries, you still maintain such swift movements… Those who can climb the Divine Steps are indeed all backed by genuine strength.”

The person spoke lightly, but to the Turtle Sage’s ears, it shocked him in place like a bolt from the blue.

People who knew those words were rare in the ancient martial world of Florence.

The Turtle Sage’s expression was no longer relaxed. He stared at the person solemnly and asked in a low voice, “Who are you and why are you attacking me?”

This person knew that he had climbed the Divine Steps, yet they still dared to challenge him. That indicated only one thing.

The opponent was also an expert who had reached the Divine Steps!

A person like that was extremely rare. There was no reason for them to come after him.

“Hahaha…” The person burst into mocking laughter. “It’s said that the Turtle Sage has the lifespan of a turtle and specializes in collecting secrets unknown to outsiders.

“However, you don’t even know my identity… Ridiculous. How ridiculous!”

At those words, the Turtle Sage’s frown deepened.

“I know now.”

After a moment, a glint flashed in his eyes. “An expert who just emerged, wearing black robes and a mask. You’re the master of the Shrouded Gate that has risen to infamy lately ” “Amazing!”
