It was as he had expected Frank to attack and hold him hostage and did not even resist.

"Don't move!" he snapped at Elder Huxley and Elder Randel as they were ready to save him before turning back to Frank and smiling. "Go on, do it. Kill me!" "What?" Frank was dumbstruck that Frank was that fearless.
"Oh, don't be so surprised." Maron chuckled. "Killright here if you have the balls, Frank Lawrence— but you have to think about it: none of your girls are going to get away alive if you do. If that's what you want, then do it." Maron was absolutely confident that Frank would back down—even if Frank could crush his neck like he wanted, it meant burning bridges with Sage Lake Sect.
Even Frank himself would have trouble bearing with the fallout, especially when Maron still held Helen, Vicky, Kiki, Winter, and Mona captive.
Maron's death would mean all five of them dead, which was why he did not care if he died.
"So? Made up your mind yet?" Maron sneered at Frank. "Go on, be quick with it and have all your ladies die with me... or letgo and play by my rules." Seeing that Maron was immune to his threat, Frank turned coldly toward the Sage Lake Sect elders and apprentices. "Hand over the hostages, and I'll let him live!" "Don't listen to him!" Maron bellowed at them, seeing x | of them were being swayed. "If you defy me, I'll make it hurt even if I survive." To no surprise, everyone followed his orders, leaving Frank growling, "Damn it."

Smack! It did not hurt Frank at all, but Frank was incensed inwardly.
"But now that you're in my house, you have to follow my rules." Maron sneered, whipping out his phone and brandishing it in front of Frank. "If this happens again, I'll kill one of the hostages. Understand?" Frank looked up to see Helen, Vicky, Kiki, Winter, and Mona on the screen, all tied up and blindfolded.
"I must say that they're all so hot," Maron said, putting away his phone while whispering into his ear, "Yesterday, | almost had a taste of each of them personally... but | changed my mind. Do you know why?" He smiled fearlessly despite Frank's murderous glare. "Because | met someone better! | mean, looks matter the most for the ladies, and I'm the son of the Sage Lake Sect chief and soon the chief. | need to weigh my decisions for the sake of the sect.”
