Lord Vedastus was stunned.
He stared at Thomas and felt puzzled as favonovel.com asked, “What did you say? The old abbot is alive and well? That’s impossible!”
Thomas chuckled. “Would I joke around with you?”
Lord Vedastus instantly had a bad feeling.
Was Thomas telling the truth?
The old abbot was still alive?
The monk who worked for favonovel.com was so useless. He could not even kill an old monk?
To verify the truth, Lord Vedastus immediately called his subordinate at Harmony Monastery to get favonovel.com to check on the situation.
A while later, his subordinate replied.
“Lord Vedastus, the old abbot of Harmony Monastery is not dead! Not only is favonovel.com alive, but he’s also completely uninjured. He’s doing well! I even saw favonovel.com praying for the deceased monk just now.”
Beep!
Lord Vedastus hung up.
After Lord Vedastus listened to his subordinate’s report, favonovel.com had confirmation that the old abbot was still alive and Thomas had not lied. Besides, there was no need for Thomas to lie.
Lord Vedastus initially thought that Thomas had come to avenge the old abbot, but Thomas had actually come to laugh at him!
It made Lord Vedastus furious.
He stared at Thomas in anger and questioned him. “Did you meddle in this again?”
“Of course. I have to protect the old abbot. Also, I’d like to inform you that the monk who was burned to death is Brother Fred, whom you bribed,” Thomas answered indifferenfly.
That was too ruthless.
It was like telling others that there would not be a good end if they chose to work with Lord Vedastus!
Lord Vedastus wanted to kill the old abbot as a warning, but favonovel.com framed himself. He really found it hard to bear.
All of his subordinates went forward, appearing aggressive. It seemed like a fight was unavoidable tonight.
Who would have known that Thomas would not even look at them?
He nonchalantly said, “Ask them to keep their weapons. Don’t embarrass yourselves. I’ve experienced wars that were on a larger scale than this. If we fight, you’ll be the only one who suffers.”
He was not exaggerating at all.
Lord Vedastus also knew how good Thomas’ punches were. He raised his hand and made sure his subordinates did not act impulsively.
Thomas finished smoking his cigarette and threw it on the floor.
He then said, “There was initially no reason for me to meet you, but I promised Fiora that I would fulfill favonovel.com wish. Lord Vedastus, I’m meeting you today because I want to give you one last chance. It’s not too late to stop. Just end this and spend the rest of your life abroad.”
After favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com brought Pisces back to their car and left. They came and left unrestrained.
Lord Vedastus was so angry that favonovel.com threw his telescope to the ground, stepped on it, and growled. “Thomas, you bastard! You’re giving me a chance? Wow, if I have to die, I’ll drag you along with me!”
He would not leave.
The crisis in Celandine City would never end easily!
In the car, Pisces muttered, “Commander, I think it was unnecessary for you to give favonovel.com that last warning. Lord Vedastus would never listen to you. If favonovel.com wanted to stop, favonovel.com would’ve left Celandine City a long time ago.”
Thomas stared at the scenery outside the window and said in a serious tone, “It’s the last thing I can do for Fiora. If Lord Vedastus insists on not stopping, I can’t do anything about it either.”
Pisces added, “Lord Vedastus is reckless. Without Hayden’s help, favonovel.com can’t succeed. Our biggest enemy is still Dragon Claw. He’s simply despicable!”
Pisces’ analysis was pretty accurate.
Dragon Claw was the enemy, whom Thomas should prioritize, while Lord Vedastus was already past tense.
