NovelOnlineWhen the quintet appeared, many experienced elites retreated in fear. Although the remaining elites didn't flee
in panic, they wore expressions of astonishment.
"Isn't that the Shadow Citadel's Evil Quintet? Why are they here?"
"What? The Evil Quintet? Are those the guys who enjoy feasting on human flesh?"
"Damn it! | really should've checked my horoscope before leaving today. Why did I run into these
troublemakers?"
An uneasy hush spread through the crowd, unsure about what was happening.
The Evil Quintet of the Shadow Citadel had a notorious reputation. Many stories spread about these five people,
calling them ruthless and severing other's limbs at the slightest provocation.
What made them even more disturbing was their unusual taste.
They supposedly enjoyed eating human flesh as a delicacy. Just these rumors alone were enough to send shivers
down the spines of various factions in the martial world.

them.

"Dalen! There you are!"
As the Evil Quintet entered the tavern, they searched around and eventually fixed their gaze on Dalen. They
immediately swarmed around him with flattering smiles.
Their expression left the onlookers bewildered. Weren't the Evil Quintet supposed to be ruthless? Why were they
so happy? Also, who was that handsman?
"Dalen, what brings you here? We've arranged a lakeside villa for you, surrounded by beautiful scenery. You don't
have to stay with these regular people," the chubby man said with a smile.
Although the chubby man looked short and stout, he was the leader of the Evil Quintet, known as Terra Shade.
The skinny man behind Terra was the second member, Aqua Shade.
The gorgeous woman, Zephyras Shade, was the third member.
The unattractive man was the fourth member, Pyro Shade.
And the burly man was the fifth member, Aether Shade.
Their names mirrored the traditional Western elements: earth, water, air, fire, and aether.
"Hey! I've repeatedly told you to stop acting like we know each other in public. Look at how you've frightened
the customers around us.
"Smight mistakenly believe I'm involved in your questionable activities!" Dalen frowned, visibly displeased.
"Dalen is a kind person, as gentle as an angel. You wouldn't hurt a fly. So, why would anyone think you're a bad
guy?" Terra laughed, then shot a fierce look at Dustin.
"If any miserable soul dares to tarnish your name, | will make sure to reduce their existence to mere fragments."

"Okay, stop yelling and making threats. Our sect has a new way of doing things. Let's try to win people over with
kindness, no matter what we do, okay?" Dalen reprimanded.
"Got it. Kindness is our approach to winning people over." Terra nodded and straightened up, softening the fierce
expression he had before.
"Dustin, letintroduce them to you." Dalen smiled and gestured to the five people.
He went on, "These five are the disciples of Shadow Citadel.
"The chubby man is Terra, the skinny one is Aqua, the pretty girl is Zephyras, the unattractive one is Pyro, and
the burly man is Aether.
"Don't be fooled by their appearances. They are all good-hearted people."
"Good-hearted?" Laurel and Willow couldn't help but twitch their eyes at these words.
They had heard of the Evil Quintet from Shadow Citadel. If these five were considered good-hearted, then there
wouldn't be any bad people around.
