When everyone saw the badge, they were shocked and wondered in disbelief, "Is he really a personal disciple of Wushuang Tower?"
However, once Callum took a closer look, he peered at Fade with vigilance and asked, "Since you claim to be a personal disciple of Wushuang Tower, then tell me, who was your previous master? Where do you usually cultivate in Wushuang Tower? What kind of cultivation methods do you use?"
Callum tested Fade with a series of questions concerning the details of Wushuang Tower.
Although Fade had some knowledge of Wushuang Tower, he wasn't sure about such tiny details. Thus, he couldn't answer those questions and opted to remain silent.
When Callum saw that he couldn't answer, the corners of his mouth curled into a sneer. He continued, "You can't keep pretending anymore! How dare you pretend to be a disciple of the Wushuang Tower clan? You have to surrender for committing such a grave crime!"
Fade didn't respond, but Dacia was starting to get anxious. He hurriedly said, "Callum, what's going on? Why are you accusing Master Chen of faking his identity? You..."
Callum interrupted him and said, "Dacia, you've been tricked by him. His jade badge is the jade used by the former disciples of Wushuang Tower. Such badges were scrapped for recycling twenty years ago. Furthermore, he can't even answer my questions about Wushuang Tower. There's no doubt that he is faking his identity."
"I don't know how you got your hands on that jade badge, but you've crossed the line for pretending to be Wushuang Tower's disciple and lying to me. You have some guts."
Upon hearing this, Dacia was stunned and turned to look at Fade in astonishment.
Fade didn't want to explain anything. He simply shook his head gently, put away the jade badge, and replied calmly, "I intended to use this jade badge to make things easier for myself. But now, things have become even more complicated. So I'd better get straight to the point."
After speaking, Fade's body shifted and he rushed toward Callum in a blink of an eye.
Callum was startled at this and he shouted angrily, "You dare to attack me? You're asking for death!"
Immediately, Callum's energy became aweinspiring. The energy realm of the Earth Level erupted from his body, and the entire wooden cabin instantly began to shake as if it was going to explode at any moment.
"You’re amazing, Callum! You deserve to be an Earth Level master."
"Good job, Callum! Give that liar a taste of your power!"
Dacia was both puzzled and anxious. "Callum, I don't know what's going on, but Master Chen is truly at the top of the Dragon List. I've witnessed Master Chen's strength. Trust me, he's not someone who we can fight against."
Callum laughed disdainfully after listening to Dacia and said in a cold voice, "Dacia, don't use your little strength to measure my strength. He can beat you, but next to me, he won't withstand a single blow."
Meanwhile, two air columns erupted from Callum's body as he spoke. The air columns rotated and surged, carrying the surrounding air with them. They interacted with each other and formed a whirlwind in the small cabin.
The whirlwind became more violent as the second went by, and the intense energy smashed the wooden cabin into pieces. Numerous woodblocks were caught in the whirlwind and crushed into sawdust, flying into the sky.
"Double Dragon Splash!"
Callum bellowed, and another two air columns roared and swept quickly toward Fade. The whirlwind was even fiercer this time. It was like a meat grinder, trying to crush everything in its way.
Meanwhile, Fade stood rooted to his spot while watching Callum's attack with a poker face. He did not make a move, as though he was dumbfounded.
"This is Callum's speciality. That guy is surely doomed."
"Hey, it's his honor to die in the hands of Callum's unique skill."
"Guys, look at that liar. He's petrified! Callum will definitely win."
"You don't need to know," Fade responded calmly.
"Then, what do you want? Are you an enemy of Wushuang Tower?" Callum pressed on in infuriation.
Fade scoffed, "I'm not interested in Wushuang Tower. All I want is the Hallow Ice Spring."
"Don't even think about it!" When Fade mentioned the Hallow Ice Spring, Callum couldn't help getting emotional and he instinctively rejected him. After all, he had been staying here for such a long time, and he had spent a great deal of effort in obtaining the Hallow Ice Spring.
Now that Fade mentioned that he wanted the Hallow Ice Spring, Callum certainly was unwilling to give it up.
Fade's eyes turned steely upon hearing this. He raised his hand while his energy surged, saying, "If you don't cooperate with me, then it's useless for me to keep you alive. You can go to hell!"
With that, the howling wind from Fade's palm swept toward Callum and was about to hit him.
Callum could distinctly feel the petrifying and murderous energy emitting from Fade, and he instantly felt scared. Fade wasn't kidding. He genuinely wanted to kill him.
Callum was terrified at the thought of death. He no longer cared about anything else and hurriedly yelled, "No, don't kill me! I'm willing to cooperate, I'm willing to..."
At the last second, the wind from Fade's palm stopped right above Callum's head. Fade then retrieved his palm and spoke calmly, "That's more like it. Lead the way then!"
Callum had almost collapsed to the ground with cold sweat all over his body. He was frightened beyond words. It was the first time in his life that he had felt death knocking on his door. The feeling of walking on the edge of death was extremely unpleasant, and he never wanted to experience it again.
Hence, Callum didn't dare say anything else. He lowered his head and led the way quietly, heading toward the cave where the Hallow Ice Spring was located.
