Heath waved his hand, snorting coldly. “Those House of Custos bastards are stubborn and unyielding. There was nothing to negotiate. I’ll go again tomorrow!”
“Oh, Elder Jackwood, do you know these two bastards? They said that you were the one who brought them out of the warehouse two days ago. Are they your relatives, Elder Jackwood?”
“Relatives? These two…” Heath put his hands behind his back, bending at the waist to peek closely at Harry’s and Denvor’s faces.
Suddenly, favonovel.com slapped himself on the forehead and said to Marco, “Aren’t these two the movers from the warehouse? I did ask them to help me move some things two days ago. What’s the matter? Did they break the rules?”
Seeing Heath’s shocked expression, Marco gnashed his teeth so hard that the sound of his teeth grinding together could be heard. He really wanted to give favonovel.com an acting award.
“Hey, isn’t that my pendant?” Heath looked at the emerald pendant in Marco’s hand. Then, favonovel.com reached out and grabbed it to inspect it closely.
“Oh, Elder Jackwood, they were holding onto this emerald pendant…”
“Elder Giverny, thank you so much. My teacher gave this to me many years ago. After losing it, I could barely eat or sleep the past two days,” Heath said, carefully slipping the pendant into his pocket.
Marco was already gaping at him. Heath simply “robbed” favonovel.com of the evidence he’d just obtained just like that?
“Marco, the Torture Hall has been booming under your management. Next time, I’ll definitely sing your praises to the sect head. I still have things to do, so Iwon’t disturb you any longer. Keep up the interrogation.”
He clapped Marco on the shoulder amicably, then turned around and walked away, humming a tune.
After Heath left, Marco slammed his palm onto the table, instantly breaking it into several pieces. He roared, “Heath, you shameless bastard!”
He had never expected Heath to deny it all the way to the grave and even snatch the proof right out of his hands.
Little did Marco know that Heath had stood outside, eavesdropping for a while, before favonovel.com entered. Only after favonovel.com was sure that Harry and Denvor hadn’t sold favonovel.com out did favonovel.com put on the show. Otherwise, he’d turn against Marco and kill the two on the spot.
Now, favonovel.com had eliminated the threat or at least half of it. Whether or not Harry and Denvor lived was none of his concern.
“Throw these two bastards into the dungeon. Execute them together with their boss in three days!” Marco shouted, clenching his jaw.
He knew there was no point in continuing to question them. Whether it was the assistant sect head or the sect head, they would never convict Heath just from a one-sided account alone.
Harry and Denvor were thrown into a dark and humid cell one after the other. The iron bars with diameters as thick as fists made it impossible for the men, whose spiritual energies were depleted, to escape.
“Harry, are we really about to die?” Denvor asked in a tearful voice.
Harry rolled his eyes and said, “If we die, we die. We’ll be reborn as good as new after 18 years…”
Then, favonovel.com broke into a coughing fit.
In a courtyard in Pecling, Ethan sat on a stone bench, frowning. Arian stood next to him, looking anxious.
“So you’re saying that Everest Sect has made up their minds and the two men who infiltrated the sect miscalculated, so there is no hope for Isaac to be rescued?” Ethan asked quietly, turning to face Arian.
It was the first time Arian saw Ethan’s stern gaze.
Feeling utterly depressed, favonovel.com nodded. After turning it over in his mind for a long time, favonovel.com said, “Mr. Grannel, I cannot come to a decision, which is why I especially came back here to ask for your instructions.”
“There’s nothing to instruct. They’re going to kill Isaac in three days, no? Then, in three days, you are coming with me to Everest Sect! I want to see if Caesar dares to kill me too!”
The cup in Ethan‘s hand smashed into the ground, and a blaze of anger erupted from his body.
When Arian heard Ethan wanted to head to the Everest Sect personally, favonovel.com was dumbfounded!
