"Elder Varimathras, what are you doing?"
Toad Swallower suppressed his anger and knowingly asked the question.
To his surprise, the other party immediately took a hardline stance and shouted back:
"That's what I should be asking you!"
"Elder Toad Swallower, what are you doing?"
"Now that we have obtained the Mythic-quality material [Imprint Clay], we should return to the Holy Domain at once!"
"Rather than continue lingering here, wasting time on irrelevant matters with this irrelevant person!"
"How is this an irrelevant matter?" Toad Swallower sneered, pointing at Chen Yan as he feigned sincerity.
"He said so himself that he wants to pursue greater strength, join us, and throw himself into the Holy Lord's embrace!"
"I was merely being helpful, exchanging a few more words with him and giving him a few more options."
"How did it become a waste of time when it came from your mouth?"
"Could it be that Elder Varimathras is so eager to return to the Holy Domain that you intend to pin a crime on me right here?"
"You and I both know that if we want to successfully complete the Demon King's mission, we should return immediately!" Varimathras stepped closer to Toad Swallower, lowering his voice with a dangerous tone.
"Victory is already within reach, yet you're acting like this... Don't tell me you never intended to complete the Demon King's mission from the very beginning?"
A vicious glint flashed in Toad Swallower's eyes as he was about to say something.
But in the next second, he saw the other demon elders turn their gazes toward him as well.
Although no one spoke for the moment, Toad Swallower could still sense unmistakable killing intent in their eyes!
The reason was simple.
His current behavior truly did look like he was obstructing the mission.
