But thinking it over, Shawn Steele could only shrug it off. The Three Great Holy Lands—Jade Pool, Battle-War, and Clearheart—are the strongest forces in this world, yet he injured their Holy Son and kidnapped their Saintesses, offending all three at once. Even the Three Great Empires wouldn’t dare do such a thing, but this bandit chief did it anyway—what else could you call the Number One Bandit Under Heaven?
His title as the Number One Bandit Under Heaven might be impressive, but few people actually believe he’ll survive—after all, he’s made mortal enemies of the Three Great Holy Lands. Injuring their Holy Son and abducting their Saintesses is a disgrace they cannot ignore, or their prestige will suffer.
Everyone’s predictions came true.
On the third day after Shawn Steele abducted the two Saintesses, Clearheart Holy Land, Battle-War Holy Land, and Jade Pool Holy Land jointly issued a statement: Shawn must release the two Saintesses within one day and personally go to each Holy Land within seven days to apologize, or he will be hunted by all three for eternity.
The announcement sent shockwaves across the land. Everyone wondered—would the bandit chief stand against the Three Great Holy Lands, or would he release the Saintesses and beg for forgiveness?
But the bandit chief’s audacity was beyond anything anyone had ever imagined.
Less than two hours after the Three Great Holy Lands issued their statement, word spread from Sunrise Peak: “In three days, Young Master Shawn will marry Faye Xi, Saintess of Clearheart Holy Land, and Serena Sima, Saintess of Jade Pool Holy Land, as his concubine-wives. Everyone is welcome to come drink the wedding wine!”
Shawn’s words spread like wildfire, leaving martial artists everywhere stunned. Damn, this bandit’s guts have reached the heavens—wasn’t this a blatant slap in the face to the Three Great Holy Lands?
How many years had it been? No one had dared provoke the Three Great Holy Lands or challenge their authority—until now. Who would’ve thought that a mere bandit chief would do what no one else dared, and in such a spectacular way?
With this kind of guts, he truly deserves to be called the Number One Bandit Under Heaven.
