Adams appeared seemingly out of thin air before Cadmus, blocking the path with an air of nonchalance. His sudden appearance drew gasps from the crowd, who whispered among themselves as they tried to make sense of the newcomer who dared to stand against the Dragon King.
Cadmus frowned, unable to discern the young man's cultivation level. It was as if he were looking at a void, a complete unknown. "Who are you, and why are you interfering in our matter?" he demanded, his voice resonating with authority.
Adams met Cadmus's gaze with an unperturbed expression. "I'm helping a friend, that's all," he replied casually, as if Cadmus were no more than a minor inconvenience.
The Dragon King's eyes narrowed, his patience waning. "Boy, don't regret this," he warned, preparing to unleash a powerful attack, intending to swat aside this insignificant obstacle and reach his son and treacherous wife.
