Chapter 122: Scaring Evan, Fredrinn’s Dilemma
Fredrinn unconsciously raised his hand.
"You actually blocked my dagger?"
In front of him was Evan who had launched a sneak attack using his dagger.
Everyone was shocked by the scene. From their point of view, it looked as if Fredrinn had managed to stop Evan's dagger barehanded.
Fredrinn frowned as he looked at him. If it wasn't for the Armor of Eternal Strength's unique effect that automatically nullifies attacks, Evan's dagger would have wounded him.
"What is the meaning of this, Evan? Do you wish to anger me by launching a sneak attack?" His voice carried a trace of coldness.
Evan pushed himself back and landed a few meters away from him. He then laughed while concealing his surprise. He had great confidence in his speed so he thought he would at least land a blow on Fredrinn. He didn't expect that the latter could actually stop him barehanded. It was truly conceivable! "You're overreacting.
It was just a greeting from a friend."
Fredrinn narrowed his eyes. He recalled Alfred's words about the Evergreen Household. According to him, they were deceptive and they hid their true nature behind their fake smiles.
All this time, he maintained a friendly relationship with Evan since he didn't want to be on the radar of the top experts of the Evergreen Household. However, it seemed like they had little regard for him and his family.
Thinking about his great grandfather who had died under the schemes of the Evergreen Household, the Flame Dragon Crescent Blade suddenly appeared in his hand. He also deactivated the aura concealment function.
Soon, the aura of a 9th Layer Nascent Soul martial practitioner was revealed, shocking the heirs and the elders present at the scene.
"It seems like you treat me like some joke, Evan." Fredrinn's eyes flashed with killing intent. It was so palpable that everyone present could sense it.
At this moment, the elders finally reacted.
"This is getting out of hand! Please stop Fredrinn! He might kill the heir of the Evergreen Household!" Someone shouted in alarm.
The elders of the supreme households immediately surrounded Fredrinn and Evan to stop the situation from escalating.
Fredrinn activated the 'Terrify' effect of his guandao, making everyone feel an overwhelming sense of suppression. He walked step by step towards Evan, his eyes emitting cold light.
"F-Fredrinn…" Evan finally realized what a huge mistake it was to provoke this person. He only wanted to play some prank on him. He never thought that it would bite him back in the ass like this.
The two Nascent Soul elders of the Evergreen Household appeared in front of Evan.
"Sir Fredrinn, please quell your anger! Our lord didn't mean to offend you in any way!" One of them said, his face covered in cold sweat. Sensing Fredrinn's aura, the elder felt that he couldn't the young man if he would truly attack Evan. After all, he was only a 7th Layer Nascent Soul realm.
The other elder had similar thoughts so they tried to pacify Fredrinn's anger.
Fredrinn stared deeply at Evan. His chilling gaze almost made the latter wet his pants.
"Since the elders have spoken, I will forget this transgression. However…"
"If this happens again, I won't be lenient anymore." Fredrinn flicked his sleeves and walked away.
The overwhelming pressure disappeared as soon as he left.
"How terrifying! So this is his true strength!"
"It looks like the Firecrown Household's position as the sixth supreme household is already set in stone. With a prodigy like Fredrinn in the next generation, their future is already guaranteed."
Everyone sighed at the sudden turn of events. No one expected things to end in such a manner.
A young dragon was born!
Meanwhile, the protagonist of everyone's conversation was now facing another dilemma.
In front of him were young ladies from the guest households. They surrounded him and tried to get his attention. Some of them even intentionally revealed more of their skin just to get him to look at them.
"Uhm, young ladies, what are you doing?" Fredrinn forced out a smile while staring at them helplessly. He had achieved his desired effect of making the heirs fearful of his power, but he never thought that this would also make him a target husband for the young ladies of the martial households.
"Sir Fredrinn, how did you become so strong? I heard that you aren't even thirty, but your cultivation is already at the 9th Layer of the Nascent Soul realm! Could it be that you have an excellent-grade spirit root?" A young lady with a curvaceous body and big watermelons asked with a shining gaze.
The other young ladies immediately perked up their ears as they eagerly stared at him.
Looking at their fervent gazes, Fredrinn was already formulating a plan on how to escape from them.
"Hahaha! Who would have thought that I would see that kind of expression on your face? It seems like you are also weak towards women." A voice filled with schadenfreude drifted into his ears.
Fredrinn turned his head and saw Lucas walking side by side with his sister, Samantha who was similarly laughing at his situation.
"Hey! Who are you to speak like that to Sir Fredrinn?"
"How dare you laugh at Sir Fredrinn?"
"Have even seen yourself in front of the mirror?"
Lucas' face twitched when he heard their words.
Seeing this, Fredrinn immediately used the chance to escape while the women were busy cursing Lucas. Of course, he didn't forget to send his friend a thumbs-up for pulling the aggro away from him.
When Lucas saw Fredrinn slipping away, he was dumbfounded. "Hey! That bastard…"
"Did you just curse Sir Fredrinn?"
"Sisters, let's beat him up!"
"Beat him up!"
"Hey, wait! It's all a misunderstanding! Wait! Not my face! Dammit! Stop hitting my face you bloody bitches!"
"Samantha, help your brother!"
Hearing this, Samantha immediately pretended like she didn't hear anything. She even disguised herself as one of the ladies and joined them in beating Lucas.
"Dammit! Screw you, Fredrinn!"
