"Hmm?!"

It was not just Sanne-every martial artist in the field turned toward Frank right then.

For his part, Frank had been content with not getting involved, unless Scarface, Mona, or Kat were in danger.

What he did not expect was for Kat to use him as a shield the instant she realized things had gone wrong. "Uh..."

Despite Sanne's furious glare and every martial artist present staring at him, Frank chuckled awkwardly as he waved them off. "That's none of my business. Feel free to continue." However, Sanne clearly needed to punish someone and assert her authority.

After all, Kat's persistent questioning and comparing Thousand Isles Guild to Frank was a clear insult to Thousand Isles Guild.

Frank was definitely not going to weasel his way out of this!

"You brat!"

The burly man beside Sanne strode up to Frank just then, snapping coldly, "Your apprentice has a really big mouth! Shouldn't you properly discipline her?!" "Ahem... I should."

Frank nodded at the man right then.

At the same time, he narrowed his eyes at Kat, who was making silly faces at him from a distance, cursing her under his breath.

"Tsk..."

Sanne rolled her eyes in disdain, seeing how spineless Frank was and how quickly he caved under pressure.

"Hmph."

However, the burly man had no intention of sparing Frank, growling darkly as he snorted, "I meant in the next life-you should discipline her in your next life!" "What...?"

Before Frank realized what was happening, the burly man launched a punch straight at Frank's face.

If it made contact, even the average martial artist would have their face blown off!

Thud!

However, Frank merely held out a hand to stop the punch, and narrowed his eyes. "You should be more understanding when you can, or perhaps Thousand Isles Guild is above reason? Resorting to murder as soon as someone rubs them the wrong way?"

On the other hand, the burly man did a double take when he realized that Frank had caught his punch.

He definitely did not expect such reflexes from Frank or that Frank could stop the punch he was so confident of!

After all, he was a bodyguard assigned by Namik to protect Sanne and was halfway through the Ascendant rank. And yet, the youth before him could react in time and stop his sneak attack?!

Even as the air around them seemed

The burly man felt the creeps right then-a psychological reaction that martial elites would have.

He knew right then that the youth was not as powerless as he looked!

"What are you spacing out for, Stone? Kill him!"

In the distance, Sanne remained impassive as she commanded Stone, even adding, "Oh, and once you're done with him, tie up that mouthy brat! I'll make her pay for insulting me!"

"Ms. Dali..."

A troubled look showed on Stone's face right then-to be honest, he really did not want to fight Frank.

Even if he appeared unassuming, Frank's very presence left his hair standing, and blindly attacking him was dangerous. Moreover, he had been tasked by Namik himself to protect Sanne, and not as her goon.
