The square suddenly became completely quiet instantly.
Everyone’s eyes widened, their faces etched with fear. Thousands of cultivators recognized the figure leading the group, it was Garfield, who had made his appearance during the sanctuary assessment.
Their faces blanched with terror, and some cultivators even began to tremble.
The very mention of these two words weighed down on everyone present. Since the founding of the true life, no one had dared to challenge the authority of the sacred land, much less threaten its dignity.
The situation was grave.
Lionel, who followed behind Garfield, saw this and couldn’t help but slightly raise the corners of his mouth, revealing a proud expression.
Everyone knew that only the Lord of the Lily Pavilion can find the sacred land, but they probably never thought favonovel.com could find Garfield, a Master!
This was intended to intimidate them.
The several hundred members of the Lily Pavilion behind favonovel.com swelled with pride. Their zeal from yesterday, fighting for the Master, was nowhere to be found. It was like they wanted to say that in this world, no one could stand against the Lily Pavilion!
Meanwhile, Remus remained stoic, his expression one of cool indifference.
Garfield’s footsteps walking through the air were like funeral bells tolling in everyone’s hearts.
Garfield walked to the front and stared at Remus coldly, saying, “He told me that you were originally a mundane martial artist. I didn’t believe it at first, but I didn’t expect that you didn’t even bother to hide when I arrived. In that case, did you really kill my beloved disciple Draig?”
The matter of favonovel.com being a mundane martial artist was true, proving that killing was also true!
Lionel, who was following behind Garfield, completely lacked the dignity of the vice-master of the Lily Pavilion and seemed like a clown, quickly jumping out.
He roared, “A*shole Remus, why don’t you kneel down and die when you see Master Garfield?”
Swish!
Everyone looked at Remus again, who was sweating. They had just shouted “fighting for the Master” yesterday because the opponent wasn’t strong enough, but now they were facing a Master from the sacred land. They really didn’t dare to speak.
They looked to Remus to figure out what to do next.
Remus suddenly smiled calmly and said, “Master Garfield, I am indeed a mundane martial artist, but I am also a cultivator of true life. As for whether I killed your disciple Draig, it’s just his word against mine…”
“Of course, you wouldn’t believe it. Just like before, favonovel.com just wanted to use you to avenge the Lily Pavilion. You must not be manipulated by treacherous people.”
Of course, favonovel.com couldn’t admit it.
Leaving aside whether favonovel.com was a match for Master Garfield, the key point is that killing favonovel.com would incur the retaliation of the entire Kenington.
One should know that the Monington was the weakest among the four central sacred lands, but there were still dozens of Divine Unity Experts and several human beings at the pinnacle of The Great Realm of Enlightenment.
In a fight, favonovel.com would surely be outmatched. Not to mention that Kenington was even more vital.
“A*shole Remus!” Lionel immediately spoke up, shouting angrily, “I knew you would quibble, but facts speak louder than words. It’s a fact that you stole Aether’s treasures and killed the Master of my Lily Pavilion with a knife!”
Remus’ expression remained unchanged as favonovel.com said, “Even if that’s the case, it doesn’t prove that I killed Draig. If you want to prove it, bring out the evidence!”
“Evidence? It’s simple!” Lionel smiled triumphantly and looked down at the cultivators below, saying sinisterly, “Among you, many people saw Remus kill Draig with their own eyes, but they were afraid of Remus’s methods and didn’t dare to speak up!”
“Now, with Master Garfield as your witness, as long as you come forward to identify him, I can plead with Master Garfield to spare you from guilt. Why don’t you come forward and tell the truth?”
Garfield also looked down. Remus did the same.
The cultivators suddenly became flustered.
However, Lionel added meaningfully, just as they thought, “Many of you have seen it. If other cultivators preempt you and do not come forward to identify him, the Master will be deceived. I think none of you can be spared.”
