Lightning Is the Only Way

Gravis looked at the person standing on the street, glaring at him.

He was a level three Ancestral God, and his power was above average.

"The Elders aren't blind," Gravis said with a smirk. "If I broke any rules, they would have already contacted me."

The man really didn't like Gravis' answer.

How did this mere level one Ancestral God dare to question him!?

"Get down, or you might run into an accident later," the man said with a threatening voice.

Gravis only smirked at the man on the ground. "Excuse me, you're a bit far away, and it's difficult to hear you. Could you come up here and tell it to me face to face?"

Their exchange had already drawn a lot of other people over, and they were watching Gravis with shock.

How could he fly?

Only Vice-Sect Masters and higher could fly here, and also only because they were exempted from the Formation Arrays' effects.

The man on the ground became quite angry when he heard Gravis' taunt, but he kept himself in check.

"You won't even have the opportunity to regret your arrogance. Just wait," the man said with a cold voice.

Then, the man walked away.

"Did you know that your threat is already enough for me to not receive any repercussions to my Karmic Luck if I kill you?" Gravis asked.

The man only snorted as he stopped walking away. "I don't recognize you, which means that you don't have a powerful faction backing you. Additionally, killing someone else is forbidden in the Eternal Fire Sect. By saying that you can kill me, aren't you ignoring the combined power and prestige of the Eternal Fire Sect?"

"Oh, political games," Gravis said with surprise. "It's been quite a while since I joined a political game. Are you trying to interpret my words in a way that makes me appear like I look down on the entire Eternal Fire Sect?"

Gravis' response took the man by surprise.

Things didn't go like this usually.

Usually, the other side would counter the man's argument by saying something along the lines that the man was actually not putting the Eternal Fire Sect into his eyes. After all, by saying stuff like that, he would subconsciously say that the Eternal Fire Sect couldn't discern the truth from the exchange.
