Chapter 5377
Adam sat in the deepest part of the cave, and his expression was murderous as his entire
body was ablaze from head to toe.
Hiss...
Sam could not help but gulp at the terrifying fiery aura, his gaze full of fear.
He could clearly sense that the energy radiating from Adam was more than twice as
strong as what he had expressed in the underground town.
Adam had truly been putting up an act. Who knew he had been that strong the entire
time?
At the same time, Zacho stared intently at Adam, unable to his excitement.
Zacho returned to his senses a few seconds later as if he had come upon a great treasure.
"Interesting... It's no wonder Adam still dared to go after Darryl after all the sects left. He's
acquired the ultimate skill of the True Flame Sect-the Art of Grand Brightness. Haha!

What a pleasant surprise this is."
As he spoke, Zacho was nothing but excited. Adam had mastered the ultimate skill of the
True Flame Sect, which only further proved that he had to have its secret chant on him.
Sam's expression brightened. "Wonderful! We'll finally be even."
Two hundred years ago, one of the elders of the North Sea Galaxy had a bit of bad blood
with a True Flame Sect guardian. The guardian was an extremely powerful figure in the
True Flame Sect, earning him half the chant of the Art of Grant Brightness from his sect
master. However, despite only having half the chant, the guardian's skills improved with
flying colors within two years.
The North Sea Galaxy elder had called for a duel to the death against the True Flame Sect
guardian, thinking he was sure to win due to his status.
In the end, the elder was killed in the fighting ring in barely ten moves. This was huge
news, and the North Sea Galaxy had felt endlessly humiliated, yet they could not publicly
declare revenge on the True Flame Sect.
Two hundred years had passed since the incident, but it had always been one of the North
Sea Galaxy's greatest humiliations.
Fifteen years ago, upon becoming sect master, Zacho had sworn to himself that one day,
he would acquire the Art of Grand Brightness from the True Flame Sect, avenging the
humiliation the North Sea Galaxy had faced all those years ago.
However, the True Flame Sect maintained a low profile as time passed. It gave Zacho little
to no chance...
That was until when he saw Adam enter a psychotic break.
Zacho's chance had finally come.
Being Zacho's pupil, Sam obviously knew everything about what had happened between
the two sects. Seeing such a good chance, he could not help but say as much.
Just then, Zacho's eyes flashed coldly as he stared at Adam intently, saying the words one
by one, "Not bad... It's been thirty years. After thirty years, we'll finally be able to avenge
the great humiliation we faced all those years ago and avenge our elder who died so
tragically."
As he spoke, Zacho addressed Sam.
"I'm going to pretend to be Darryl to get Adam's attention, which is when you'll find the
right time to take him out once and for all."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Got it, Master!" Sam called out in response before hiding in the cave's blind spots.
The cave was a blazing fiery red under Adam's flame energy. Sam did his best to
withstand the heat just so the plan would succeed.
Whew...
Seeing Sam properly hidden, Zacho took a deep breath before slowly walking in Adam's
direction.
Around ten meters from Adam, Zacho stopped. He spoke in Darryl's tone, mocking, "Adam
Bedford, I honestly think it's best you just give up. No matter how hard you try, there's no
way you'll be any match for me."
Zacho still did not know what had happened between Darryl and Adam. However, upon
hearing Adam's crazed howls, he could put the pieces together well enough to form a
logical story.
Just then, Adam's chest thudded hard at Zacho's words. He glowered at Zacho, roaring,
"Save your insolence and pride, Darryl Darby. You were only about to usurp my flame
energy all because of sheer dumb luck..."
Adam had completely lost all logic then and had completely mistaken Zacho for Darryl.
