BXBX NOVEL Chapter 231 Warning
On the Mountain. Ravina Ingale's voice was fierce and stern. "Drake, if you keep trying such things behind my back, I will not easily let you off even if our families have some ties."
Drake frowned and indifferently replied. "Ravina, it's just a quarrel between me and him.
As a fellow disciple, I should teach him how to act properly. If I don't, given Brother Ezra's attitude, he will draw even more trouble to him in the future."
However, he shook his head, knowing that there was no longer anything he could do to Ezra Zephyr today now that Ravina was here. Soon after, Mahi came as well.
The lightning spiritual energy around Ezra gradually withdrew as Drake frostily looked towards Ezra and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "You commoner cretin, she may be able to protect you now, but she can't protect you forever. Since you're so unyielding… I'll make sure to properly play with you. But you must be careful not to meet your maker so soon, entertain me for a bit…"
After the final word, Drake turned around and left.
Ezra's eyes narrowed slightly as he watched the former leave. A dangerous light flickered within his eyes as he said. "Shut your damn mouth, you degenerate delusional dogshit dunce.
You are not but a dullard, your groundbreaking arrogance sets an unreachable standard for countless generations of delusional fools.
I wasn't joking with you either. If you do decide to stick out your head then I will step on it. And when I say this shit... I really mean it"
Drake's eyes turned red, and his body shook in anger but he took a glance at Ravina and moved away.
The hostile atmosphere on the mountain path faded following Drake's departure as the churning spiritual gradually calmed down.
Mahi flew to Ezra Zephyr's side. She bit her red lips as she watched Drake leave, before looking towards Ezra Zephyr with an apology in her eyes.
How could she not know that she was the reason why Drake Tubble had attacked Ezra Zephyr?
If she had not practised the Gossamer Steps technique with Ezra Zephyr, Drake would not be hostile towards the former.
The prince smiled at Mahi as he waved his hand. "Our characters conflict with each other. Even with you out of the picture, a clash will likely be unavoidable in the future."
Drake was just too damned arrogant, believing himself far superior to others. He may appear uncaring and nonchalant on the surface, but the truth was that he looked down on everyone else, and even more so the non-Shiyan disciples.
Many disciples would show a lower posture when they encountered Drake, but this was something Ezra Zephyr could not do. In addition, although he was not someone that constantly seeked out trouble, he did have his own sharp edge.
Once Ezra and Drake came into contact, the two would be akin to two needles, making the other uncomfortable.
Therefore, Ezra felt that even without Mahi or Ravina, a conflict would easily arise between him and Drake Tubble.
However, Mahi took it as if Ezra was only consoling her. "Don't worry, although Drake does have some powerful and influential people behind him if he dares to deal with you through them, I will not just stand by and watch."
Ezra chuckled and said, "He only brought them up to intimidate me. Given his proud character, it would be humiliating for him to seek their help just to deal with me."
Ravina gave a slight nod of agreement. Mahi hesitated somewhat, before she asked, "Then… will I still be able to learn the Gossamer Steps technique with you?"
She was not someone who liked to implicate others, but without Ezra's aid, a lot more time and effort would be needed for her to reach the second level of the Gossamer Steps technique.
The prince laughed softly before he responded, "I just said earlier that as long as you're willing to come, I'll be willing to teach. No one can change my mind."
He did indeed hope to create ties with Mahi. After all, it was no good to only offend others, allies were also very important.
Mahi's eyes seemed to give off a happy glow. Ezra's decision to continue guiding her also meant that he was ignoring the pressure from Drake.
From a certain point of view, it meant that Ezra had chosen her over Drake.
However, she would not let Ezra Zephyr bear the pressure from Drake.
"Ezra, if Drake tries anything funny, feel free to come to find me. I will settle him for you." Declared Ravina Ingale.
The prince did not reply when he heard this, merely smiling in response.
"Even if he shamelessly brings out all the people he spoke of earlier, I'll receive any moves he'll send at me with. It just so happens that I'm also interested to experience for myself how good our number one unofficial outer mountain disciple is."
Although his tone was calm, there was a faint mockery contained deep within it. The things Drake had done today had clearly already angered Ezra Zephyr. But the anger was deeply hidden, veiled by his smirk.
Upon hearing that Ezra intended to cross swords with Drake, worry bubbled within Mahi as she hurriedly tried to caution him. "You shouldn't underestimate him. Drake is very strong, and has a tremendous amount of rallying power amongst the Shiyan disciples."
"Relax, I will not underestimate anyone. Although Drake is strong, if he believes I'm a soft persimmon, I'm afraid that he will crack his teeth…" The prince waved his hand, indicating he did not wish to speak any further on the topic. He then continued on his way along the mountain path.
As she watched him leave, Mahi clenched her teeth as she mumbled, "Why are you trying to act cool at a time like this…"
She then turned her head, looking towards the direction Drake had left in earlier as iciness flitted across her eyes.
"Drake, if something happened to Ezra. You will know that my wrath is far more ferocious than Ravina's."
