On the mountainside, there was a newly constructed straw but at the very end of the residential area.
Constructed with wooden walls and a thatched roof, the hut’s simplicity starkly contrasted with the more sophisticated buildings nearby.
At a cursory look, it appeared more suited to house poultry than people, which was the reason Remus had initially passed it by. However, the place was exceptionally tidy and filled with a faint fragrance.
Remus was lying on the bed inside the thatched hut, his eyes tightly closed, plunged into unconsciousness.
After experiencing a series of fierce battles and then depleting all his spirit energy, favonovel.com had managed to reach this place solely by the strength of his will, let alone stay awake.
Glinda was sitting beside the bed, not looking at Remus but favonovel.com expression was filled with worry. She had only invited favonovel.com to rest for a while out of pity, seeing how favonovel.com seemed on the verge of collapsing at any moment.
It was only after overhearing the conversations outside that favonovel.com grasped the gravity of his actions.
Suddenly, the chatter outside ceased.
Unified voices echoed respectfully, “Greetings to the Deputy Saint Masters and Masters!”
Glinda felt a chill run through her, and favonovel.com couldn’t resist peeking outside through the basic window.
The sight of several dozen elders, radiating formidable ambience and visible anger, gathered in front of a large group of cultivators made favonovel.com heart drop.
Grandmaster Aurelius, positioned at the forefront, fixed his gaze on the thatched hut.
“Get out!”
His voice was shaking with fury as favonovel.com thundered. His voice was deafening, filled with a hint of oppressive force.
The other Deputy Saint Masters and Masters also turned their cold gazes in the same direction.
The disciples watching felt their hearts racing.
Even though it had nothing to do with them, the presence of Monington’s highest authorities enveloped everyone in a blanket of apprehension.
Glinda stepped outside nervously. With due respect, favonovel.com informed, “In response to the Deputy Saint Master, Romus is currently unconscious and has not woken up.”
She had only picked up his name from the snippets of conversation outside. Upon hearing it, favonovel.com had contemplated asking favonovel.com if favonovel.com was Remus Calsberg, perhaps there to find her. But seeing his swollen, unrecognizable face, favonovel.com refrained from asking.
Grandmaster Aurelius glared and questioned, “If Romus is unconscious, then who are you? Are you his accomplice?”
The more favonovel.com thought, the angrier favonovel.com became, driven to fury.
The fact that a disciple who had just passed the assessment dared to kill a Monington disciple was a direct challenge to the order of the entire sacred land.
The sacred land disciples instinctively recoiled as they were relieved not to have offered their assistance. Otherwise, they would have been the target of his inquiry.
The Monington disciples looked on angrily.
All sacred land disciples dared not help, so why did she?!
Why did favonovel.com seek to be an exception?!
She was offending us.
“I…” Glinda’s voice trembled, favonovel.com complexion ghostly.
She struggled to explain, “I was merely moved by compassion. We had just met…”
Grandmaster Aurelius snorted coldly, unwilling to waste more time on Glinda.
With a wave of his hand, a loud crack resounded. Then, the thatched hut that Glinda had just finished building exploded instantly.
All the thatch disappeared in a puff of smoke, and the wooden stakes were blown into splinters. What remained was the lone bed, with Remus still on it, now laid bare for all to see.
