When the quintet appeared, many experienced elites retreated in fear. Although the remaining elites
didn't flee in panic, they wore expressions of astonishment.
"Isn't that the Shadow Citadel's Evil Quintet? Why are they here?"
"What? The Evil Quintet? Are those the guys who enjoy feasting on human flesh?"
"Damn it! I really should've checked my horoscope before leaving today. Why did I run into these
troublemakers?"
An uneasy hush spread through the crowd, unsure about what was happening.
The Evil Quintet of the Shadow Citadel had a notorious reputation. Many stories spread about these
five people, calling them ruthless and severing other's limbs at the slightest provocation.
What made them even more disturbing was their unusual taste.
They supposedly enjoyed eating human flesh as a delicacy. Just these rumors alone were enough to
send shivers down the spines of various factions in the martial world.
The Evil Quintet wasn't just brutal. They were also powerful, and each member possessed exceptional
martial skills.
In the past, some righteous individuals tried to ambush the Evil Quintet to rid the world of their menace.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, not only did they fail, but they also suffered heavy casualties, with some losing their sanity
outright.
Since that incident, the Evil Quintet's fearsome reputation spread far and wide, and no one dared to
provoke them.
Wherever they went, most people fled in fear, afraid of becoming the Evil Quintet's target. It was why
some experienced martial artists chose to retreat.
After all, who in their right mind would want to provoke five powerful lunatics with a taste for human
flesh?
"Dalen! There you are!"
As the Evil Quintet entered the tavern, they searched around and eventually fixed their gaze on Dalen.
They immediately swarmed around him with flattering smiles.
Their expression left the onlookers bewildered. Weren't the Evil Quintet supposed to be ruthless? Why
were they so happy? Also, who was that handsome man?
"Dalen, what brings you here? We've arranged a lakeside villa for you, surrounded by beautiful
scenery. You don't have to stay with these regular people," the chubby man said with a smile.
Although the chubby man looked short and stout, he was the leader of the Evil Quintet, known as Terra
Shade.
The skinny man behind Terra was the second member, Aqua Shade.
The gorgeous woman, Zephyras Shade, was the third member.
The unattractive man was the fourth member, Pyro Shade.
And the burly man was the fifth member, Aether Shade.
Their names mirrored the traditional Western elements: earth, water, air, fire, and aether.
"Hey! I've repeatedly told you to stop acting like we know each other in public. Look at how you've
frightened the customers around us.
"Some might mistakenly believe I'm involved in your questionable activities!" Dalen frowned, visibly
displeased.
"Dalen is a kind person, as gentle as an angel. You wouldn't hurt a fly. So, why would anyone think
you're a bad guy?" Terra laughed, then shot a fierce look at Dustin.

fragments."
Dustin just smirked in response, completely disregarding the threat.
"Okay, stop yelling and making threats. Our sect has a new way of doing things. Let's try to win people
over with kindness, no matter what we do, okay?" Dalen reprimanded.
"Got it. Kindness is our approach to winning people over." Terra nodded and straightened up, softening
the fierce expression he had before.
"Dustin, let me introduce them to you." Dalen smiled and gestured to the five people.
He went on, "These five are the disciples of Shadow Citadel.
"The chubby man is Terra, the skinny one is Aqua, the pretty girl is Zephyras, the unattractive one is
Pyro, and the burly man is Aether.
"Don't be fooled by their appearances. They are all good-hearted people."
"Good-hearted?" Laurel and Willow couldn't help but twitch their eyes at these words.
They had heard of the Evil Quintet from Shadow Citadel. If these five were considered good-hearted,
then there wouldn't be any bad people around.
