“Of course that wasn’t! If you were up against the real him, you’d be utterly powerless! Even that kid Amorphous could only win in a tie with one of Sanchez’s split selves!” said Finnley with a laugh.
“Kid? Amorphous?” muttered Gerald could see that Finnley didn’t think highly of that senior at all.
“Either way, you said that you were chasing after Sanchez and something happened… Care to explain that in further detail?” asked Gerald who was eager to have all his questions answered.
“Well… After Sanchez attempted to enter the general’s tomb, a certain force that I’ve been tracking for years suddenly appeared again… From what I managed to gather at the time, the Sun League’s influence had spread across the secular world. I also knew at that point that they were still occasionally kidnapping people,” explained Finnley.
“So that’s why you said I wasn’t ready to learn more about the Sun League yet back then… You were waiting for my cultivation level to get higher first!” replied Gerald who could finally see things from Finnley’s point of view.
Taking a sip of tea, Finnley then said, “Indeed, and it’s high time I told you more about that group. For starters, the group’s real name is supposedly the Solana Deus Sect. You only know of it as the Sun League since the descendants of the secular world call it that. Regardless, it was thousands of years ago when the Deitus Realm experienced a great catastrophe. At the time, many Deus Sects and Angelords fell, and even some great demons ended up injured or straight out disappearing. Nobody truly knows what happened that year, but that’s beside the point. The important thing is, the Soluna Deus Sect was somehow able to survive. Honestly, it isn’t even a stretch to claim that it’s the sole remaining Deus Sect.”
Upon hearing all that, Gerald quickly replied, “You know, a friend of mine, Saint Darkwind, once fought and captured a member of the Sun League, Solana Deus Sect. From what favonovel.com was told, any random person in the sect could kill favonovel.com in seconds! It was then when I learned that the Deus Sect truly existed!”
“I see… Regardless, you know that your uncle Peter and fiancée were captured by them, right? Yet Peter managed to escape? It’s because the people in the Soluna Deus Sect were unable to develop his angelic root. Due to that, favonovel.com was exiled and obtained the chance to break free!” explained Finnley.
“Speaking of which, though favonovel.com looks stupid, your disciple, Leo, could’ve developed an angelic root too. It’s a shame that nobody helped favonovel.com cultivate, leading to his foundation getting slowly corrupted… I have a feeling that the deus sect must have put in quite a bit of effort to develop him, but ultimately, favonovel.com was far too long gone, leading to favonovel.com getting exiled as well!” added the old man.
After hearing all that, Gerald found that many things were starting to make a lot more sense. As it turned out, those from the Deus Sects had been capturing others for special training rather than just wanting to create experts with access to secret inner strength. As for Leo and his uncle, they simply ended up getting eliminated It was at that moment when Gerald suddenly widened his eyes as favonovel.com asked, “Wait, are you implying that Mila has an angelic root as well?”
Nodding in response, Finnley then said, “Indeed. The truth is, I had initially gone to Mayberry because of her. However, after doing a bit of investigation on your uncle, I soon realized that you not only possessed the Herculean Primordial Spirit, but you were also the God of Battle’s incarnation!”
“I see… Regardless, you’re a hundred percent certain that the Soluna Deus Sect is responsible for kidnapping Mila?” asked Gerald.
After all, though favonovel.com had several clues that pointed at the Sun League being responsible, favonovel.com never actually had solid proof.
Now, however…
