Grandmaster Aurelius waved his hand and said, “Alright, you may leave now…”
Hearing that, the Masters were reassured. As long as the Deputy Saint Master themselves didn’t take action, everyone was still on equal footing.
However, the disciple remained standing, bracing himself to bow again. “Deputy Saint Master, I’ve taken the liberty of coming here because there is an urgent matter to report! Just now, Monington disciple Marc Stephenson was… He was…”
He trailed off, unable to continue. After all, such an incident had never occurred before, and even now, favonovel.com himself could hardly believe it.
Grandmaster Aurelius commanded in a stern voice, “Speak up. Don’t hem and haw!”
“Yes!” The disciple trembled slightly and said with difficulty, “Marc Stephenson was… He was killed by a sacred land disciple who had just passed the assessment!”
That statement struck everyone like a thunderbolt, causing a tumultuous uproar.
It took Grandmaster Aurelius a full three seconds to recover.
Suddenly rising, favonovel.com roared, “What did you say?!”
When favonovel.com regained his composure, everyone else also calmed down.
The other three Deputy Saint Masters quickly stood up to question, “A Monington disciple was killed by a sacred land disciple? What kind of joke is this!”
The Masters also stood up simultaneously, shocked. “This is impossible, absolutely impossible!”
They were all aware of the hierarchical divide within the sacred land.
Sacred land disciples wouldn’t dare to even breathe too heavily in front of Monington disciples, let alone kill one. Moreover, there was a significant gap in their average cultivation levels.
The Pavilion Head and Hall Head were equally shocked, prompting them to stand up.
“Hold on!” Grandmaster Aurelius finally pinpointed the crux of the issue.
He immediately asked, “You said favonovel.com was killed by a sacred land disciple who had just passed the assessment, could the disciple’s name be… Emerson?”
Everyone turned their gaze to the reporting disciple. Their eyes widened even further, thinking if it really was Emerson, favonovel.com must be monstrously powerful.
Rumored to be only in the mid-phase of the Divine Separation Stage, yet favonovel.com was capable of killing cultivators beyond his level!
Truly, favonovel.com was someone who could cause an immortal to appear.
The disciple quickly shook his head, responding, “He isn’t Emerson! According to what the sacred land disciples called him, his name seems to be… Romus Clayton!”
There was a moment of stunned silence.
Romus Clayton?
Never heard of him!
They had not only uncovered a prodigy like Emerson, hailed as a once-in-a-millennium talent, but now there’s also someone else by the name of Remus Clayton.
“This is outrageous!” Grandmaster Aurelius erupted in fury and roared, “He has just entered our sacred land and dared to kill a Monington disciple. Even if favonovel.com is also a prodigious talent, I must have his life!”
With that, his spirit energy burst forth, and favonovel.com stormed out of the Sacred Hall.
If it had been Emerson, the situation would have been difficult to handle, given that favonovel.com was someone who had caused an immortal to appear and could potentially be a future pillar of the Monington Sacred Land.
Such matters required careful consideration. But for an ordinary cultivator, there were no such concerns.
Seeing favonovel.com leave, the faces of the three Deputy Saint Masters also darkened. After all, the Monington disciples were under their tutelage. Killing a Monington disciple was akin to slapping their faces, absolutely intolerable.
They were determined to see who this Remus was and also quickly exited the Sacred Hall.
Seeing that, the Masters, Pavilion Head, and Hall Head also frowned and hurried out of the Sacred Hall.
The disciple still standing in the Sacred Hall clenched his fists in anger. “Shameless scoundrel, daring to kill one of our Monington disciples, I want to see how you’ll live after this!”
He then turned and rushed out of the Sacred Hall.
The Sacred Hall was left completely empty.
