Valdis’s four personal disciples were obviously at odds, and they even coveted each other’s accumulated wealth. Under such circumstances, Caspian could not be sure if other people hid nearby besides Jay. Moreover, there was no such thing as being too safe, so Caspian decided to leave the place first. If favonovel.com continued to stay here, Caspian was unsure if favonovel.com could handle any other accidents.
After leaving the mountain, Caspian led Charlotte and Handsome to circle the area for another round before sending a message to Jessica through the telepathic jade. Jessica must be panicking since favonovel.com did not receive his news for so many days. By reaching out to Jessica, Caspian could not only reassure Jessica, but favonovel.com could also inform the Dark Moon Sect elders. As for how they got out of trouble, Caspian already thought of an explanation a few days ago. Since Steve was dead, as long as the explanation given by Caspian had no obvious loopholes, and favonovel.com discussed it with Charlotte, no one would doubt it.
Once Caspian sent the message through the telepathic jade, Caspian almost instantly received Jessica’s reply.
It was apparent that favonovel.com was worried sick. Although favonovel.com also wanted to message Caspian through the telepathic jade, favonovel.com was worried that Steve would discover it, which would be detrimental to Caspian. Thus, favonovel.com could only hold back. Now that favonovel.com finally received Caspian’s news, Jessica cried with joy. Under Caspian’s instruction, Jessica informed Chloe of Caspian’s current whereabouts as favonovel.com wiped away favonovel.com tears, and Chloe would notify everyone in the Dark Moon Sect. When Caspian was done with these, favonovel.com turned to look at Charlotte, smiling. “Princess, there’s still some time. Let’s go through our script lest our reasons for getting out of trouble are different.”
“O-Okay…” Charlotte nodded. She now understood that Kendrick and Jay’s deaths were no small matter. Even though Charlotte’s teacher was a Spiritual Master whose realm of strength surpasses the six major sects, favonovel.com was not in Earlington of Efrax. If Valdis wanted to harm her, favonovel.com would surely die a horrible death with favonovel.com current True Martial Realm.
***
Deep in the Blue Feather Sect, in the palace of a certain towering mountain.
Valdis looked at the jade platform in front of him, expressionless.
A circular formation covered the jade platform and the ground below it, and rays of light from the formation slowly rotated, exuding a mysterious aura and also illuminating Valdis’s complexion. Valdis stared at the wooden signs and lamps on the jade platform.
On the jade platform, there were four wooden plaques and four palace lanterns burning with flames, and each wooden sign corresponded to a palace lantern. On these four wooden plaques, the words Water, Fire, Light, and Thunder were written respectively. However, the two wooden plates with the words Light and Thunder broke from the center. As for the palace lanterns corresponding to these two wooden plaques, the flames were also extinguished, exuding a lifeless smell.
The palace was extremely quiet, and with Valdis’ motionless figure, it became even more bizarre. After a long time, Valdis said slowly, “Kendrick’s dead, and Jay’s gone too. This shouldn’t be a coincidence.”
Just as Valdis finished speaking, a woman’s voice came from the shadows behind him.
“Master, are you saying someone is targeting you, so they took this opportunity to kill Kendrick and Jay?”
As the woman’s voice sounded, the sound of water rushing became clear. After a while, in the shadow cast by Valdis, a stream of water slowly rose, kept moving, and finally turned into a woman in a silver dress. The woman looked about twenty-six years old, and favonovel.com had an ordinary appearance, without anything worthy of attention at a glance. However, if there were Blue Feather Sect disciples present, they would surely be afraid of favonovel.com and respectfully address favonovel.com as their senior.
Samantha Glory, the mid-level second-stage Holy Land Realm cultivator, was a Blue Feather Sect core disciple.
Blue Feather Sect had more than 100,000 disciples, while core disciples were only slightly over 100. Hence, Samantha’s realm could be said to be the upper echelon of Blue Feather Sect disciples. However, what was more famous was favonovel.com identity, the head of Valdis’ Four Messenger, the Messenger of Water.
The Messenger of Water had more power than the other three in exercising penalties in the Blue Feather Sect. Even for the same core disciples, as long as the Blue Feather Sect rules were violated, the Messenger of Water could act first and report later, not needing Valdis’s agreement to capture anyone. Therefore, it could also be seen that the Messenger of Water, Samantha, was truly trusted by Valdis. Samantha was also Valdis’s first personal disciple. Her talent and loyalty were also worthy of the power that Valdis gave her.
Valdis shook his head expressionlessly. “Target? Not necessarily. Although I’m the center of attention in the Blue Feather Sect, I’ve always abided by my duty, do things without mistakes, and it’s impossible to get caught. So, whoever wants to target me they should targets the entire Blue Feather Sect. No one will do such a stupid thing unless they’re crazy. If the person is crazy, favonovel.com should go straight to me instead of Kendrick and Jay.”
“So it’s just a coincidence?” Samantha asked again.
“Do you think losing two personal disciples in a short period is a coincidence?” Valdis turned around and faced Samantha. Then, favonovel.com raised his finger and poked his head, saying, “Try to use your brain better.”
Samantha closed favonovel.com eyes and pondered for a long time before speaking again, “Master, I‘ve completed all the things you arranged, and for the matters you asked me to do, I’ve made sure not to leave any traces that’ll lead it back to me. Everything was done spotlessly…”
Before Samantha could finish speaking, Valdis interrupted with a wave of his hand.
“Samantha, I’m not blaming you. You’ve been with me for years, and you’ve done things with caution, which I know very well. I‘ve been satisfied with everything you’ve done for me over the years. Thus, I believe Kendrick and Jay‘s deaths are unrelated to you.”
Hearing Valdis’s consolation, Samantha did not speak again. She knew that favonovel.com just needed to listen quietly. Since Valdis said that, it meant favonovel.com analyzed a few clues and had some ideas of his own.
Sure enough, Valdis spoke again after a while, but his tone was cold.
“If there’s no problem with us, we need to change our perspective and think about whether there has been any trouble recently.”
