In a resplendent main hall, four Spell Casters were silently staring at an image in mid-air with grave expressions.

"What do you think we should do? The Shkedu Dimension is controlled by the nine of us. We cannot allow anyone to damage the prosperity of the Shkedu Dimension!"

A black-robed Wizard said lowly.

These Spell Casters were the highest controllers of the Shkedu Dimension – four of the nine Honored Legends. They naturally sensed the movements in the Shkedu Dimension but did not immediately step forward, and instead secretly observed.

"That's right, the Shkedu Dimension's prosperity mustn't be damaged by anyone! Plunderers are detestable but look closely. Legend Arnie isn't breaking any of the Shkedu Dimension's rules. He even extended his Maxim to the surroundings to guard against the aftermath of his battle with Legend Zado."

Another Great Legend said with bright eyes.

"I agree. Although plunderers are hateful, he didn't break any rules. We shouldn't interfere!"

Among the four Honored Legends, there were already two who did not agree to interfere with Arnie's and Zado's dispute. It seemed like they were being partial since Legend Arnie was not breaking any rules. Hence, they would not interfere.

However, everyone understood in their hearts that this was just an excuse. The true reason why they did not want to interfere was that Legend Arnie was not easy to deal with.

Although there were four Honored Legends, even if they took action, it was difficult to say if they could defeat Legend Arnie. If they offended this Honored Legend plunderer, the entire Shkedu Dimension would be brought to ruin.

Almost every Spell Caster hated plunderers but they were also afraid of them. That was because when plunderers went mad, they would have no scruples at all.

There was once an ordinary plunderer who went mad, who did not care about anything, and destroyed several dimensions. He was killed in the end but the ruined dimensions could never be recovered again.

Legend Arnie was still a powerful Honored Legend. Anyone would have misgivings about facing a plunderer like him, and the Great Legends of the Shkedu Dimension were no exception.

"Then, what should we do now?"

The four Great Legends exchanged looks, and turned back to the image. Legend Zado was absolutely disadvantaged. Then, the leading Great Legend bellowed, "We'll wait. We'll wait until a victor appears. If Legend Zado is unlucky, and dies in the Shkedu Dimension, we'll inform Arcane City…"

After saying that, the four Honored Legends grew silent. This was the most sensible course of action but it was not in agreement with their identities of the ones who controlled the Shkedu Dimension. However, against such a powerful plunderer who could become mad, this approach was the safest way.

...

"D*mn it, are those Honored Legends of the Shkedu Dimension not planning to take action?"

The few Mind Powers he had sensed earlier disappeared immediately. Legend Zado's heart chilled but after considering Legend Arnie's identity as a plunderer, he immediately understood.

The Honored Legends of the Shkedu Dimension had already decided not to act. After all, Legend Arnie's actions up till now had been played "by the rules". This made them feel at ease for not interfering.

Legend Zado, who had also sensed the disappearance of the few Mind Powers, revealed a thin smile. "Zado, no one can save you… It's not too late to sign the contract now!"

Holding the absolute upper hand, Legend Arnie once again mentioned the agreement. Although he was a plunderer, he did not go mad yet. After all, Legend Zado was involved with Arcane City. He did not want to take the risk unless it was a last resort.

Legend Zado's entire body seemed to be suppressed by the Flame Maxim. His Five-Elemental Maxim had crumbled, and he was no match for Legend Arnie.

In the Pavilion of Rarities, Merlin saw the clash between Legend Zado and Legend Arnie. Even though he was just a seventh-level Spell Caster, he could tell that Legend Zado was at a very disadvantageous spot.

The Great Honored Legends belonged to the absolute top among thousands of dimensions. Many powerful gods were slain, and suppressed by Honored Legends.

When fighting foreign tribes, Honored Legends always led countless Great Legends to battle. A unit led by an Honored Legend could destroy an ordinary foreign civilization.

Thus, even though Legend Zado was a Great Legend with five Maxims, there was still an indisputable gap between him and an Honored Legend.

Now, Merlin had some regrets. If he had known earlier, he would have asked the Wizards in the Pavilion of Rarities to inform the Blackfire King as well while informing Legend Zado.

However, it was too late now!

"So? Have you thought about it?"

Legend Arnie asked casually.

"Hahaha, Arnie, does a plunderer like you think that everyone who faces death will act the same as you? Merlin is my disciple. So long as I live, you won't touch him!"

Seeing Legend Zado's determined look, Legend Arnie's expression turned cold as he said, "Fool!"

Legend Arnie could not understand Legend Zado's current thoughts but he also knew that making Legend Zado sign the contract was not viable anymore. He no longer had any more options.

"Zado, you're the most foolish Legend I've ever met!"

Legend Arnie scoffed coldly, and swept his arm down. The terrifying Flame Matrix started to surge wildly, covering the skies, and engulfed Legend Zado.

"Legend Zado, just sign it!"

At this time, Merlin's face was pale as he bit his lip. Legend Arnie seemed to have deliberately let Merlin hear his conversation with Legend Zado. For the first time, he deeply regretted informing Legend Zado, and plunging him into this crisis.

Legend Zado was at a dangerous juncture now, which also made Merlin completely frantic. He shouted, "Legend Arnie, if you kill Legend Zado, I'll immediately spread the matter of the Satsuma Dimension to the entire Shkedu Dimension!"

Merlin's words continue to reverberate in the Void. Arnie froze slightly, and hesitated but a wave of monstrous anger immediately emanated from his body.

"Go ahead and try! Your voice can't reach outside the Pavilion of Rarities now. If you say anything, at most, I'll just destroy the entire Pavilion of Rarities."

Legend Arnie's eyes were cold, and his tone carried a frigid iciness.

"You aren't afraid of making enemies out of the entire Shkedu Dimension?"

Merlin's heart trembled. He did not think that Legend Arnie would be so ferocious.

"Of course, I have apprehensions. I won't make nine Honored Legends my enemies for no reason! However, you dared to threaten me, so it doesn't matter anymore. Besides, it doesn't matter if a Pavilion of Rarities is destroyed. Don't forget, I'm a plunderer as well as an Honored Legend! Would the Shkedu Dimension unceasingly try to hunt me down just for Pavilion of Rarities?"

Everything seemed to be in Legend Arnie's palms. His eyes looked down at Merlin from above.

"Die!"

The raging flames drowned Legend Zado in the blink of an eye. Legend Arnie had also completed his preparations. If Merlin dared to speak, he would dare to directly burn down the entire Pavilion of Rarities.

This was the strength and madness of a plunderer!

"No matter what, I don't believe that you'll be able to isolate yourself from being sniffed out by the Shkedu Dimension's Honored Legends…"

Merlin gritted his teeth, and shouted. He knew that the moment he revealed this secret, Legend Arnie would fly into a rage, and kill him instantly.

However, Legend Zado was in imminent peril, so Merlin had no other choices.

"Hmph, Arnie, what great power! Since when has a plunderer dared to appear so brazenly in a prosperous dimension?"

A cold voice sounded in the air.

The sky in the distance seemed to darken in an instant, and from the darkness, a raging fire continued to burn wildly.

A figure flashing with overwhelming life force followed the endless darkness, stepping on the turbulent flame, and instantly arrived!
