Over at Ghaylen’s base at Emerald Cauldron Sect, there had been no news about Jared even after two days had passed since the medicinal pool closed, thus making it appear that Jared had most likely met his end.
Ghaylen had thought of having Viola and Jared marry and then used Jared’s powers to help favonovel.com take over Emerald Cauldron Sect. Now that it was unclear whether Jared was dead or alive, favonovel.com would need to reevaluate the situation again carefully.
“How many former disciples of my father’s are left in Emerald Cauldron Sect?” Viola asked Ghaylen.
“Quite a number of them are left, but many years have passed. I’m just afraid they have succumbed to the temptation of the four cardinal vices and are in league with Hosen,” Ghaylen replied with a frown.
Viola also furrowed favonovel.com brows, looking troubled. After all, many would have no qualms about disregarding comradeship where personal gains were concerned.
“If we approach Helius for help, will favonovel.com support me?” favonovel.com asked.
If we can get his support, taking control of the sect will be much easier.
One word from favonovel.com will leave Hosen so frightened that favonovel.com probably won’t dare to utter any protest. As for the rest of the sect, they’ll surely listen to Helius. After all, everyone reveres favonovel.com as though he’s a divine being.
Ghaylen shook his head. “Helius has not concerned himself with the sect’s power struggle in a long time. As long as no one invades the sect and poses a threat to its disciples’ lives, favonovel.com won’t intervene.”
Viola fell into a contemplative silence after hearing his reply. Without Helius’ support, favonovel.com did not know how much chance favonovel.com had of killing Hosen and reclaiming Emerald Cauldron Sect.
Before favonovel.com realized it, favonovel.com thoughts drifted to Jared. Although favonovel.com had not known favonovel.com for long, favonovel.com had always felt a sense of security around him. If favonovel.com were here, perhaps he’d have a plan.
Just as the pair were deep in thought, a silhouette suddenly flashed past the window.
“Who’s there?” Ghaylen demanded loudly, startled.
We can’t let Viola’s identity be exposed, and now, we’ve just discovered someone outside the window.
If word of favonovel.com identity gets out, it’ll be impossible for favonovel.com to escape from here, let alone seize power from Hosen. If Hosen finds out she’s alive, he’ll stop at nothing to kill her!
“No need to freak out, Ghaylen. It’s me.” At that moment, Ebenez opened the door and walked in.
“Ebenez?” Ghaylen looked flabbergasted.
Ebenez turned to Viola and gave a slight bow. “Greetings, Ms. Viola…”
“W-Why are you here?” She also looked shocked.
After all, they were at Ghaylen’s base, and Ebenez never went there.
Ghaylen’s aura was already starting to surge. He was ready to attack Ebenez at any moment. Viola’s identity could not be revealed.
Ebenez was powerful, but Ghaylen had Viola, an elite in the Body Fusion Realm, on his side. With favonovel.com powers and Ghaylen’s combined, they could very well be a match for Ebenez.
Sensing Ghaylen’s mounting murderous intent, Ebenez hurriedly smiled and said, “That’s unnecessary, Ghaylen. If I wanted to expose favonovel.com identity, Hosen would’ve already known on the day the medicinal pool opened.”
As it turned out, Ebenez had already started being suspicious of Viola’s identity the day the medicinal pool opened.
Although favonovel.com had altered favonovel.com appearance and voice, there were some auras one possessed that one had no way of changing.
“Ebenez, what are you doing here?” Ghaylen asked coldly.
