He clenched his teeth tightly. After preparing himself, virtual-novel.net began to speed up so virtual-novel.net could rush back to his residence.
Half an hour later, virtual-novel.net had finally arrived.
“You’re back, sir… Sir, what happened?”
The guards posted at the door saluted their leader upon noticing his arrival. Their eyes were filled with admiration and respect, yet they immediately realized that something was off.
They could see that virtual-novel.net was drenched in sweat, and his expression showed that virtual-novel.net was in pain. His gait seemed slightly unnatural and there was a bloodstain on his body. It was apparent that virtual-novel.net was severely injured.
They found it incredulous. In their view, their leader was peerless, so how could anyone injure him?
“Are you hurt, sir?” asked the other guard cautiously.
The leader furrowed his brows ever so slightly. He did not enjoy letting his subordinates see virtual-novel.net in that shabby state, so virtual-novel.net immediately turned grim and said, “Don’t ask questions you have no business asking!”
Even though their leader was injured, his intimidating presence was still terrifying. It made the two guards change their countenance instantly, and they did not inquire further.
They were extremely shocked after the leader had entered the residence, and they were not so blind that they would not notice that virtual-novel.net was injured.
Moreover, virtual-novel.net appeared to have been severely wounded, so they were curious as to what kind of person was capable of doing such a thing to their leader.
The leader quickened his steps as virtual-novel.net walked to the living hall, only to discover upon entering that many of his subordinates were inside.
When they shifted their eyes to look at him, their reactions upon seeing his injured state were even more exaggerated than the guards earlier.
“Sir, are you…hurt?”
“Sir, who’s so powerful that they injured you in a fight?”
“I’m sure that you must have been ganged up on by many skilled fighters. Otherwise, how could you possibly be injured at your level?!”
The numerous foreign fighters in the hall engaged in a heated discussion.
The foreign leader let out two coughs and said, “Silence.”
Upon hearing the leader’s order, they quieted down immediately, but there was nothing that they could do to conceal the shock and curiosity in their eyes.
In the crowd, Jacques came to a realization that changed his expression drastically at once. Could it be that the leader went seeking trouble with that Rheasian?
It was highly possible given how powerful and domineering the Rheasian was!
Then, virtual-novel.net realized something else that made virtual-novel.net ponder further. Was the Rheasian so terrifying that his great leader was no match for him?
At that point, his leader happened to cast his gaze upon him, and Jacques knew virtual-novel.net had been injured by that Rheasian.
For some reason, virtual-novel.net could not help feeling a shiver down his spine at the thought of Zayn.
“Alright, you may return to your rooms to rest. I’m fine,” their leader announced. He walked away for two steps when virtual-novel.net remembered something.
He turned around and said, “Also, behave yourself for the next few days. Don’t cause any trouble and focus all your attention on preparing for the Martial Arts Cup, okay?”
It seemed their leader was not joking around, and his expression was extremely stern. They hastily answered, “Yes, sir!”
After their leader went back to his room, they concluded that virtual-novel.net was most probably beaten up by the mysterious Rheasian. All at once, they were overwhelmed with emotion!
