Tai-Liu turned to Aiden apologetically. "[Reptilian] I am sorry… Aiden it's not that we do not want to agree to the terms you want, but…"
"[Reptilian] But?" Aiden smiled calmly and asked.
Tai-Liu sighed as she grabbed the temples of her head, already feeling the surging headache of all the problems she was facing. "[Reptilian] The Azure Myst Sect is not the only faction that has arrived in Ugburg City for the Ancient Burial Ground ruins. There are also other large forces such as the two that you have already met, the Crystal Palace and Malefic Demon Clan. As for the supposed inheritance, it's better if we don't find such a cursed treasure like that if I am honest. If we do, these so-called top figures of the other factions are bound to come and contest us for it! It would only spill endless trouble for our small group!"
In other words, Tai-Liu meant that they would have to face many extremely strong foes if Aiden really wanted to contest for the chance to gain the so-called inheritance!
After pondering for a slight moment, Tai-Liu added, "[Reptilian] I will not lie and be blunt here, I'm talking about people like Pei Syriac of the Crystal Palace and the so called Dark Lord of Malefic Demon Clan. For these people, other than the true treasures such as mythical artifact weapons, other treasures and secret skills aren't worth bothering about."
"In fact, I am almost certain that they are here solely for the same inheritance you are also aiming for."
It wasn't that big of a secret that the Ancient Burial Grounds were somehow connected to the Ancient One, or more precisely to the so-called Guardians of this world after all. The secrets of its dilapidating walls and maze-like tunnels held within were unimaginable!
Pei Syriac and the Malefic Demon Clan's current young lord were already at the top of the current mortal limits of this world. The best chance for them to step into a higher realm and grow stronger would be most likely within ruins such as this Ancient Burial Grounds!
This was an opportunity they simply cannot and would not miss.
At the thought of the arrogant dark robed man and the super arrogant and complacent Pei Syriac, Aiden frowned. He had exchanged blows with Pei Syriac before. Although it was only a single blow, he could still sense how terrifying his opponent was.
To be fair if he wouldn't have been alert and guarded like he was, there was a high chance that his arm would have been crippled by Pei Syriac back then!
Tai-Liu said, "[Reptilian] Even though you killed three of the strongest known powers of the church, three Archbishops, you have to understand that there's a distinction in strength between what is shown to the public and what is kept under wraps as well. Take me for example, I am at a similar power level as those elders as well, but unlike those maniacs I am mostly an alchemist, an elixir master. Even five of me won't be a match for people like those elders that have decades of battlefield experience."
Then as she sighed her expression turned somber as she continued.
"[Reptilian] Yet, even ten of me, or perhaps a dozen more wouldn't be able to stand up to the likes of those two monsters… Pei Syriac though arrogant and condescending, truly has the strength to support it…. As for the 'Dark Lord', his title also isn't just for show. Only one in each generation has the right to wield it."
She then looked at Aiden and said.
"[Reptilian] This is the difference I and all of us are talking about."
Aiden remained silent as he listened to these words. He knew that Tai-Liu was not wrong. He understood it, the moment they clashed that his chances of winning against the two of them without using his ultimate cards was nowhere great.
The elderly uncle chimed in and remarked as well. "[Reptilian] These two factions have a heritage going back countless years and they have too many battle techniques and secret skills, each of which are extremely strong and can suppress everything."
"You have your advantage in melee combat. Unfortunately, the successor of Crystal Palace is also skilled in melee combat and has a physique so strong that only a few of the other sects' successors can match him!"
Tai-Liu added "[Reptilian] You took advantage of the situation by making use of the storm to kill the two elders, Elder Zhorl and Elder Loran. There was an element of luck, surprise involved in those eventual hard-earned victories. However, can you guarantee that the weather will be similar once again when you go to face off against Pei Syriac and the Dark Lord of the Malefic Demons?"
"[Reptilian] In other words, even if you manage to repeat that incredible attack, that mighty slash infused with that strange power, those two might be able to deal with it given their strength."
Sensing the situation was going his way, Juno Hian could not help but blurt it out. "[Reptilian] Elder Sister, you are overestimating him! He's not even a match for the core disciples of the smaller sects, let alone the paragons like Pei Syriac and Dark Lord Yang. Pfft! Those outsiders aside, even I can smash him to a pulp with ease!"
To Juno Hian, the reason why Aiden was able to kill the elder archbishops all those days ago was purely due to an opportunistic moment. He refused to believe and accept the impossible fact that this scrawny kid would be anything strong and powerful!
He could not sense any energy fluctuations coming from him! In all aspects, he felt like a powerless, helpless mortal and not a powerful disciple of an unknown master.
If the skies were sunny, he would be able to kill Aiden for sure! He was absolutely certain of it.
Aiden merely smirked, and refused to comment or be bothered by an idiot, like Juno Hian's sarcastic remarks. Instead he glanced at the sight of the so-far silent figure in the room.
Their gazes met as he gazed at Vyndridolth's smiling expression. Though they have not said a single word, it seemed they understood each other perfectly.
In reality, both of them knew that inhe could easily squash these bugs like Pei Syriac or this rather cryptically titled 'Dark Lord' of the Malefic Demon Clan. Heck, he just needed to let go of his self-imposed constraints and be willing to unleash his full potential!
Yet, that would spell endless trouble and would also make his main quests be that much harder, if not impossible to complete!
His only choice was to face them using nothing but his current capabilities. He should not rely on his divinity too much.
At least not for the time being.
