The Prince Who Was Raised in Hell
Chapter 393

The boy in front of him was a few years younger than himself, but Caspian felt a wicked vibe fromhim.

Such an aura was extremely sharp and harsh, and with just a glance, Adrian could make anyonescared for their lives as if he held a knife against their throat.

Seeing Maisie, Adrian stopped talking to the elder, turning over and standing.

Then, he smiled, “How are you, Maisie?”

After saying that, his gaze fell on Caspian.

Even though Adrian appeared young, Caspian felt as if a blade slashed at his head.

If it were ordinary people, they would be scared out of their wits, or maybe even fall to the groundas their knees went weak.

However, Caspian was not afraid.

On the contrary, the sharp blade would ignite the fighting spirit in his heart.

In that instant, it was as if swords slashed at one another in the air, and everyone around themsuddenly felt they were attacked.

Maisie’s gaze slightly changed, but she did not say anything and took a step forward, protectingCaspian behind her.

Then, Maisie looked at Adrian.

“Adrian, what are you doing here?”

Adrian was shocked that Caspian did not avoid him, and he planned to show off his overbearingmomentum, directly defeating Caspian.

However, Maisie ruined his plan.

Nonetheless, Adrian did not mind.

After casting a thoughtful glance at Caspian, he looked at Maisie, answering, “Maisie, Elder Patrick,and I had something to discuss, but we're done now.

Why don’t you say why you’ re here?”

Even though he said that, Adrian did not intend to leave.

He just stood at the side, looking down.

His existence was like a nail on the board, which was uncomfortable at a glance, yet his sharp-edgedaura was enough to make one unwilling to confront him out of fear.

“This is a true genius,’ Caspian thought.

Adrian was only fourteen, yet he reached the peak third-stage Pulse Control Realm, and he was onlya step away from Holy Land Realm.

Such a cultivation talent was the best in the entire Earlington of Efrax.

Nevertheless, Caspian was not afraid even though he was amazed by Adrian's talent.

It was indeed remarkable that Adrian used a few years to be promoted to the peak third-stage PulseControl Realm, but Caspian’s ascending to the peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm in half a yearwas equally incredible too.

Adrian's presence was indeed uncomfortable for some.

Compared to him, the entry-level second-stage Pulse Control Realm disciple was not as noticeable.When that disciple noticed that Caspian looked at him, he only glanced coldly at Caspian, notsaying a word.

Maisie realized that Adrian did not leave, and she did not ask him to go either.

Then, she turned to the elder named Patrick, asking, “Elder Patrick, I'm here regarding the matterabout Casper and the other disciples’ rewards.

You mentioned that their contributions were doubtful.

What does that mean?”

Elder Patrick was not in a high realm, and he was only in the mid-level third-stage Pulse ControlRealm.

Nonetheless, it was pretty common in the sects for elders to be in lower realms than disciples.After all, the pathway to immortality was long, and the resources were limited.

Hence, lesser people would be able to go far.

Many sect disciples would realize that their talents were limited or did not have any support toprovide them with enough resources.

Then, they would choose to work for their sect to accumulate sect contribution points, hoping toget a position in the sect.

Elder Patrick was one of them.

Judging from his appearance, he appeared to be in his mid-fifty, but in truth, he was much olderthan that.

Facing Maisie, who was in the peak third-stage Pulse Control Realm, Elder Patrick felt pressured.“I'm the one who has the final say in this... I also received... The higher-up’s order..." Elder Patrickstammered.

"Higher-up? Whose? What are you talking about?” Maisie frowned, and her tone became somewhatserious.

In that instant, the entire inner hall turned cold, and the air seemed to be heavy, causing others tohave breathing difficulty.

“The higher-up is... Is...” Elder Patrick stuttered, and his current actions were suspicious.

Maisie’s face darkened.

Then, she turned her hand over, and a memory inscription appeared on her palm.

“Elder Patrick, do you dare to repeat what you said just now?”

“I... " Elder Patrick's forehead was beaded with sweat, and his legs trembled as he was intimidatedby Maisie’s pressure.

“Let me explain it,” Adrian suddenly said.

As he spoke, he stepped forward, blocking Elder Patrick, and directly facing Maisie.

As if countless sharp arrows pierced through the heavy atmosphere, stirring it and letting it flow asusual.

Everyone in the inner hall felt a heavy load was removed from their chest.

Even Elder Patrick's face returned to its original complexion, and his legs did not shake anymore.“Master decided on this matter.” Adrian ignored Maisie’s gloomy face, and he continued, “For thetime being, there's no proof that shows Casper and the others’ contributions are real.

Elder Patrick just conveyed the Master's belief, and if you want to vent your anger, you should lookfor the right person.”

“Master?” Maisie looked at Adrian, “Elder Frankie accepted you as his disciple?”

Adrian met Maisie’s gaze, and he smiled, nodding.

“That's right.

The master-disciple relationship was confirmed.

However, Master mentioned that he'll choose a date to announce it.

Therefore, only the remaining leading elders are aware of this matter.

Maisie, your position is not that high yet, so, normally, you didn’t know this.”

After saying that, Adrian looked at Maisie, shaking his head gently as if he felt sorry for Maisie toreplace out about it late.

On the other hand, Maisie's face was extremely gloomy.

The Elder Frankie mentioned was one of the eighteen outstanding figures in the Heavenly StarsSect, who was also in charge of the Dazzling Stars Palace, Frankie Irvin!

The rewards received by the entire Heavenly Stars Sect's disciples, as well as the appointment anddismissal of the sect’s elders, must be approved by him.

Hence, Frankie was extremely powerful in the Heavenly Stars Sect!

If Frankie personally expressed his doubt about Caspian and his friends’ contributions, it would betough to reverse the situation.

It could be said to be impossible.

Since Adrian dared to openly say Frankie accepted him as his disciple, then the matter would surelybe true.

If Adrian dared to spurt nonsense, Frankie would personally handle the matter and kill Adrian withjust a hit, ignoring the fact that Adrian was a well-known talent in the Heavenly Stars Sect.Moreover, it was not a secret in the Heavenly Stars Sect's senior members that Frankie intended toaccept Adrian as his disciple, and he did not do it before as he wanted to observe Adrian first.Even Maisie knew about that.
