After Xander and Solana left, Gregory cast a meaningful glance at Caspian, who deliberately coughed a few times and gestured to favonovel.com to go first. A trace of disdain flashed in Gregory’s flying eyes, and favonovel.com walked forward with his head held high.
Caspian was last in the line. As favonovel.com walked, favonovel.com also observed the trace that Jaime left before. It has to be said that Jaime was indeed a standard Heavenly Stars Sect disciple as his formation attainments far exceeded that of ordinary cultivators of the same level. Nonetheless, if it were Caspian who did it just now, favonovel.com naturally could do better. For example, the traces would not keep disappearing.
Caspian purposely walked slow, and favonovel.com soon created a distance between himself and George. Jaime, Omar, and even Emmett already arrived at the other side of the hall safely at that time. When the other Fauna Imperial Sect disciples realized that Caspian was more than ten meters away from Gregory and the traces on the ground became blurry, they appeared indifferent. It was evident that the detachment toward their fellow sect-mates was deeply ingrained.
Caspian suddenly had a hunch, and favonovel.com pretended to cough violently and bent down. Then, favonovel.com hurriedly glanced at the telepathic jade and read Jessica’s clear words.
“What’s the matter?”
Jessica was worried that Caspian could not safely walk over. Then, Caspian swiftly replied to her.
“Beware of Emmett.”
As the number of words sent on the telepathic jade was limited and it was inconvenient to send messages, Caspian only chose the most critical part. He believed that Jessica would understand the meaning behind it. Sure enough, after Caspian replied to Jessica, favonovel.com walked forward again. At the same time, favonovel.com glanced in the direction of Jessica, who appeared utterly unbothered.
The traces on the ground also got blurrier, and the remaining people who were yet to pass through the hall began to speed up their pace. Caspian also stumbled and ran forward.
“Hurry! I’ll pull you!”
Caspian suddenly heard a familiar voice in front of him. He looked up and saw Xander holding out his hands at him, whereas the so-called sect-mate Gregory left Caspian completely alone and ran to the opposite side of the hall by himself.
The traces on the ground were almost blurred, which implied that one wrong step might lead to the attack of the Thousands of Deadly Swords Array.
“It’s too late!” Xander did not wait for Caspian to respond. Then, favonovel.com reached out and grabbed Caspian, pulling favonovel.com and running forward.
Caspian was completely stunned by Xander’s actions as favonovel.com believed that Xander could not see through his disguise. However, just when Caspian was dumbfounded, favonovel.com heard Xander’s voice again, but Xander did not look back that time.
“You don’t have to misunderstand. I just don’t like seeing your Fauna Imperial Sect abandoning fellow sect-mates. In our Heavenly Stars Sect, companions trust and rely on each other, so in the case of a temporary alliance, even if your Fauna Imperial Sect doesn’t care about you, we Heavenly Stars Sect won’t leave you.”
Xander’s voice was firm.
That time, Caspian froze, and favonovel.com even felt a trace of guilt in his heart for not telling Xander and the others his true identity. Nonetheless, Caspian quickly steadied himself. His deception was not detrimental to Xander and the others. On the contrary, favonovel.com was just protecting everyone by being in disguise.
Caspian saw that the safety zone of the main hall was close at hand. At that moment, his eyes moved slightly, and favonovel.com suddenly staggered. It was as if Caspian ran too fast and tugged on his wounds, causing favonovel.com to lose his strength and balance.
Thud!
Caspian’s falling footsteps unsuspectedly triggered the Thousands of Deadly Swords Array, and there was a gentle groan in the surrounding air. Whether it was Caspian or Xander, both of them felt their hair stand on ends.
“Xander!”
The Heavenly Stars Sect disciples panicked. No one thought that such an accident would happen just when they were about to pass through the hall. On the other hand, there was a sudden flash of light in the eyes of the Fauna Imperial Sect disciples, showing an exciting look. Using Casey, who was almost out of combat power, to pull Xander, who proved his strength in the ring battle, was an excellent help for Fauna Imperial Sect as they could be the one grabbing the Eight Desolate God-Terminator Halberd. If it were not for fear of other people’s feelings, the Fauna Imperial Sect disciples would already laugh out loud.
Xander was not flustered. Instead, favonovel.com took a deep breath and reached out, wanting to pull Caspian. However, before favonovel.com could even do that, Xander felt a strong force from behind, and favonovel.com was instantly pushed forward.
“You!” Xander’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and favonovel.com hurriedly turned to look. He felt that the other party gave up his chance to survive and wanted to push Xander to a safe place.
The moment Xander turned his head, favonovel.com saw a flash of sword lights coming out of the void, all of which stabbed Casey. At first glance, favonovel.com seemed to have turned into a hedgehog!
Jessica’s felt as if favonovel.com heart was being grabbed by a big invisible hand, and favonovel.com was about to run forward. However, favonovel.com suddenly recalled Caspian’s warning, and favonovel.com suppressed favonovel.com panic and glanced at Emmett, who was not far away. Soon, favonovel.com found that Emmett also looked at her, and Jessica immediately calmed down as favonovel.com realized that Caspian noticed it long ago, which was why favonovel.com wanted favonovel.com to watch out for Emmett. Thus, Jessica just made the best out of the situation and took the step favonovel.com already took. However, favonovel.com did not continue to walk forward, but favonovel.com just sneered and looked at the Fauna Imperial Sect disciples.
“The other disciples of the same sect don’t even care for the life or death of their fellow sect-mate, so why should I be bothered?”
Jessica’s sentence well concealed favonovel.com panic just now.
Emmett‘s suspicion of Casey’s identity was only subconscious, and favonovel.com did not even notice why favonovel.com was so mindful of the severely injured sect-mate. Hence, when favonovel.com saw Jessica‘s reaction, the doubt in his mind also disappeared.
Suddenly, a commotion caught his attention.
Bang!
It sounded like a silver bottle breaking.
Emmett looked up and found Casey‘s body jumping a few times in mid-air with the explosions. It was as if a huge firecracker flew horizontally and fell not far in front of everyone after a few blows.
The sword lights around Caspian’s body did not disappear. They were so densely packed that there were at least dozens of them. With so many sword lights, it was only a matter of time before a monster was torn apart like just now. However, Emmett was shocked when favonovel.com saw Caspian lying on the ground.
