“You didn’t kill him? Was it one of us who did, then?” Nubique exclaimed.
Turning his head, favonovel.com immediately shouted at a red-robed saint behind him, “Inform the Black Martial Munks from the Torture Hall to come over. We can’t let this murderer escape!”
The red-robed saint at the back waved his hand and quickly ran out.
At the side, Mizar frowned deeply. The Black Martial Munks from the Torture Hall were the most powerful group of saints trained by Carmine Temple. Their strength was likely equivalent to the advanced-stage Divinity Phase fighters.
Isaac turned around, but Nubique suddenly dashed and blocked Isaac’s path directly.
“Isaac, you won’t escape!” Nubique said with red eyes, a powerful air emanating from him.
As Isaac was about to confront the approaching chief abbots, Mizar stepped forward, saying coldly, “Isaac, if it’s really you, just admit it. On behalf of the Stoner family, I’ll spare your life!”
Isaac turned his head to look at Mizar, his gaze akin to someone observing a fool.
Is this woman out of favonovel.com mind?
If I have committed the crime, would I stay here to watch the drama unfold?
“Can you shut up?” Isaac said with an icy tone as favonovel.com looked at Mizar.
What a classic example of turning a minor situation into a disaster.
Outside, footsteps approached rapidly, urgent and heavy, producing a muffled thud. 20 saints wearing black tunics and holding metal staffs stormed in. The 20 Black Martial Munks immediately surrounded Isaac upon entering.
Isaac glanced at them. Each of the Black Martial Munks had an expressionless face, exuding a chilling air. Moreover, each person emitted a special wave of energy similar to what Nubique and the others had.
The power of Boddism?
“All Black Martial Munks, listen up! Seize the murderer who killed the Grand Abbot for me!” Nubique roared, pointing at Isaac.
At this moment, a stern voice rang out from the side. “Hold on!”
Everyone turned to find Zansam coming toward them with a serious expression.
“Zansam, what do you mean?” Nubique and the other two chief abbots were taken aback.
Zansam walked to the front and said in a deep voice, “Nubique, don’t forget the rules. The Black Martial Munks can only be mobilized by the Grand Abbot, and we need the agreement of all four chief abbots to do so. Right now, I haven’t agreed to deploy the Black Martial Munks.”
“Zansam, you…” Nubique was so enraged that his body shook.
Zansam looked at Isaac and said with a serious expression, “Mr. Garten, I believe you wouldn’t commit such a malicious act. You’re not the one who killed the Grand Abbot… But you must prove your innocence.”
“Zansam, the evidence is right in front of us. Only Isaac had breakfast with the Grand Abbot. He’s the only one with the opportunity to poison him. How can you still trust an outsider? What are your intentions?” Nubique glanced at the other two chief abbots while raising his hand to point at Zansam.
The other two chief abbots also frowned and looked at Zansam.
Before they could speak, Zansam coldly said, “I am willing to vouch for Mr. Garten’s innocence in my capacity as a chief abbot. If Mr. Garten is proven to be the murderer, I will voluntarily step down from my position as chief abbot.”
