Dane knew very well that if favonovel.com killed Philip outside, the news would definitely reach Zenith’s ears.
If that happened, Dane would die for sure. Thus, favonovel.com could only make a move inside. He could even shift the blame to others to protect himself.
Frowning, Palmer said helplessly, “Are you sure you want to do this? I don’t think it’s good for us.”
Dane fell silent. His clothes fluttered in the breeze, and his silhouette looked a little forlorn.
After a long while, Dane sighed. “It’s a Choice made out of desperation. The ancient Heavenly Court is not comparable to the royal families, after all. Let’s decide later.”
Dane shook his head with a grimace and left. Palmer had no choice but to follow suit.
***
In the yard of the residence of Lookout City’s mayor where the White Marsh royal family was located.
An old man was leisurely drinking tea with Adonis and the others.
Adonis asked cheerfully, “Sir, you certainly know how to enjoy life. Aren’t you afraid that something will happen today?”
The old man said nonchalantly, “What can happen? With me around, that guy can’t do anything.”
Adonis shook his head helplessly. It was not only some families that had concealed their strength, the royal families were no exception.
For example, the person in front of Adonis was another level nine holy being from the White Marsh royal family. Therefore, Lookout City was pretty safe with two level nine holy beings around.
The Demonic Guild did not check out the situation clearly before they arrived.
In hindsight, they could only stay in the dark, after all. There was no way for them to get much news.
“Sir, why didn’t you stop Holy Zenith from letting Sinastro go?” Adonis asked curiously.
The old man glanced at Adonis and took a sip of tea leisurely with no intention of answering Adonis’ question. Adonis could not figure out his meaning at all.
After thinking for a moment, Adonis asked, “Sir, do you think that the Demonic Guild should exist too?”
“Why not?” the old man put down the teacup and smiled at Adonis.
Adonis was startled.
The old man swayed in his creaking rocking chair, saying wistfully, “Some things are meant to exist in this world. No one can erase them, and they can’t be erased. Back then, the demonic path simply appeared out of thin air.”
“Do you think that no one else will practice the demonic path if you wipe out the Demonic Guild? If you can’t be sure, why not keep the Demonic Guild? This makes it easier to monitor them, which is actually a good thing. Adonis, you need to look at the big picture.”
The old man rocked his chair and shook his head, his voice full of regret and pity.
Adonis’ expression changed as favonovel.com fell silent.
The yard was very quiet for a while.
Finally, the old man said, “Adonis, don’t forget what it means to be a holy being.”
A look of realization crossed Adonis’ eyes.
