Edda deliberately ran in the direction Caspian left as favonovel.com mentioned that a few people looked for favonovel.com just now. Moreover, Edda was sure that the direction Caspian went must not be the direction favonovel.com came from. Hence, favonovel.com was confident favonovel.com could avoid the disciples looking for favonovel.com if favonovel.com followed Caspian. Nonetheless, there was another selfish reason for doing that.
Edda could not exactly explain why, but Caspian left an indelible impression on their brief exchange just now. Thus, favonovel.com wanted to see why Caspian was determined to look for Asher.
As an outer disciple, Edda also heard about Asher issuing a reward order. If a bounty was put on them, ordinary people would probably have avoided the person. No one would directly look for the other party like Caspian. Therefore, Edda was somewhat excited.
Caspian did not know that Edda followed him, and even if favonovel.com knew, favonovel.com would not care. He set his goal before entering Elenion, the City of Ruins, which was to find Asher and snatch away his jade plate. Caspian determined from the very beginning that Asher would possess one of the nine jade plates. Whether it was a buyout or some other method, Asher would have it.
The direction and scope that Edda pointed out before were extensive, and many things could happen in four hours. Then, Caspian recalled the position of each light beam the last time they lit up. One of them was very close to the direction Edda pointed, but it was a little farther than the distance between Edda and that position. However, that was also why Caspian was confident the light beam was where Asher was located. The reason was straightforward, judging from Edda’s state, favonovel.com must have been running and avoiding, so favonovel.com walked further than Asher. As for why Asher did not need to flee so miserably, the answer was simple. Caspian believed that when favonovel.com found Asher, there must be more than one person by his side.
‘According to the rules of the game, at the twenty-fourth hour, the jade plates will emit light for the last time. Then, everyone will be teleported back ten minutes later. In other words, the ten minutes after the beams of light appear will be the final decisive battle.’ Caspian smiled.
Caspian did not know about the others, but favonovel.com must be one of the nine people!
Time continued to pass by, and the atmosphere before the decisive battle got stronger and stronger in Elenion. Most outer disciples understood that the one who laughed the longest was not necessarily the one who laughed last. After all, only those who get the jade plates at the last minute would be eligible to represent the Heavenly Stars Sect in the nation’s official religion election.
The previous forbearance was also limited. At that time, except for a tiny number of jade plates, the rest were already in the hands of the other powerful outer disciples. Hence, it was not so easy for others to snatch them.
When the beams of light lit up for the last time, Caspian found Asher with precise calculations. When Caspian found Asher, the other party was surrounded by a group of subordinates, appearing triumphant with his hands on his hips as favonovel.com spoke loudly.
There was still a long way to go, but Caspian could hear the other side’s intermittent voice carried by the wind.
“This time… I must… Nobody can dream of taking it away…”
“Since you help me, I won’t mistreat you…”
“As for Casper… Break his limbs… Let favonovel.com cry… Hahaha!”
As the distance got closer, Asher’s loud voice became clearer and clearer.
“If that guy can show up now, I’ll shave my hair. Hahahaha. I really want to see his miserable look now. Hahahaha!” Asher laughed triumphantly, raising his head with his arms akimbo, and his upper body shook.
The few outer disciples around favonovel.com did not know if they should please favonovel.com or what, but they also laughed along awkwardly.
At that time, Caspian appeared on a stone not far behind Asher.
“Oh? You’ll shave your hair?”
Asher’s laughter came to an abrupt end, and the atmosphere in the surroundings seemed to have frozen too. As if favonovel.com could not believe his ears, Asher still kept his arms akimbo, slowly turning toward Caspian with his mouth wide open. Then, Asher’s expression instantly froze when favonovel.com saw Caspian sneering at him. It was as if Asher saw a ghost in broad daylight, and his complexion kept changing between pale, green, and red. Not only that, but the outer disciples around favonovel.com were also dumbfounded. No one would have thought that when the trial was about to end, they would actually meet Caspian.
Caspian looked at Asher, but favonovel.com spoke to the several other outer disciples, “This is a personal grudge. I’ll treat it as if today’s events never happened if you leave now.”
These outer disciples appeared to be in a dilemma. Although Caspian just stood there alone, the outer disciples felt pressured, making them breathless. However, they knew Asher’s background and were aware that favonovel.com had an extremely talented younger brother. If they offended Asher, their days to come would be unbearable because of his petty character. After gritting their teeth and hesitating, these outer disciples still chose to stand on Asher’s side with a pale face.
When Caspian saw the scene, his eyes flashed with a harsh light as that was just as what favonovel.com anticipated. In the past, no matter how big of a commotion favonovel.com caused, Caspian was just an apprentice. On the other hand, Asher rid the roughshod over the outer disciples relying on his realm and Adrian’s prestige.
These outer disciples did not seem willing to support Asher, and they were just forced. Nonetheless, Asher could not care less about that. Originally, when favonovel.com saw Caspian appear, his calf shook a little. Yet, favonovel.com suddenly became brazen when favonovel.com saw none of these outer disciples leave.
“Casper, I can’t believe you took the initiative to find me…”
Before favonovel.com finished speaking, Asher’s vision suddenly went blurry, and favonovel.com felt a gust of wind blowing on his face. He did not have time to react at all and heard a deafening slap in his ear. Half of his face was numb in an instant, and his mind buzzed as if countless bees flew around. Soon, Asher lost control of his body, and favonovel.com knelt on the ground with a loud bang.
Caspian stood in front of Asher with his hand raised, looking at Asher with a contemptuous smile.
Not only the outer disciples around Asher were shocked, but the Heavenly Stars Sect elders who watched Caspian’s performance in the projection were also amazed.
