Frank's stride never slowed as his murderous presence grew stronger.
On the other hand, Quinn's expression was suddenly respectful as she nodded. "Uncle Sal, it seems like you have to put this brat in his place."
"Uncle Sal?"
Frank felt a burst of gale behind him before he realized it, like a hundred birds shrieking at once.
He was already annoyed even before the attack reached him.
"You really are too conceited, kid! It's time to teach you that there's always a bigger fish!" the elderly man's voice cried shrilly as he leapt out from Frank's back, his fingers striking toward Frank's nape as quick as lightning.
"Teach me, when all you can do is blindside me? Is this all Sage Lake Sect can do?!"
However, Frank had already sensed his presence.
He just did not expect him to move so quickly—or indeed, so brazenly.
The man called him 'kid' but was only capable of such despicable moves.
But even if he was shameless, he was a Birthright rank individual and carried a strong vigor that the late Drakon Salazar could not hope to match!
"Five-Peat Archaeus!"
Frank growled in his mind as he stepped on the tile floor below, his body suddenly turned into thin air.
Then, even before Sal Ocean could react, Frank was above his head, unleashing a clear burst of vigor that buffed his palm technique, knocking Sal's finger technique backward.
"Impossible! Blargh!" Sal cried, unable to anchor himself as he crashed squarely into the wall, leaving a Sal-shaped hole as he coughed out a mouthful of blood.
"Hah!" Frank chuckled coolly as he stared at the frantic Sal. "Why should I answer your question? On the other hand, you and Sage Lake Sect have been challenging me repeatedly—it would be impolite if I didn't respond. You will all fall here today!"
Without giving Sal time to breathe, Frank moved at the speed of lightning and appeared beside Sal in an instant!
"What?! Oof!"
Sal's meridians were already maimed, his lungs and veins choking.
Even before he could muster his pure vigor to parry Frank, he was alarmed as he saw Frank's murderous intent flare.
He did not expect him to come true on his word and decided that he must eliminate Frank once and for all!
However, to think it was one thing—it was another thing entirely for his body to keep up.
