The guard was startled for a moment, a hint of apprehension in his gaze, before he regained his composure, "Even the Saint Sky Sect must abide by the rules given the complex situation in the Central Region."
"So it's 'drink the toast or drink the forfeit,' hm?" Peregrine Azure was already quite angry. Previously, in the entire Central Region, no one dared to offend the Saint Sky Sect; merely hearing the name would invoke fear. And now, he, a lofty Vice Sect Leader, was actually being stopped?
What's more, it happened in front of Logan, which was a huge embarrassment. Just before, he had boasted to Logan that the Saint Sky Sect was one of the five famous orthodox sects of the Central Region, how prestigious the sect was. Now, he felt like he had been slapped in the face, and he simply couldn't step down with grace.
