The Timaeus Sect's members walked out of the main hall soon.
Once they were left alone, Xachary fixed his gaze on Rebella. “You have done well by capturing
Nando. However, how could you let that man from the Dark World get away?!"
Rebella flinched and got down on her knees. "Master, I didn't let that man get away. We've trapped him
on the second level of Forladtt Land."
Xachary knitted his brows. "Without you there, would your subordinates be able to keep him detained
in that place?"
"He's sustained serious injuries." Rebella's face was pale. "The Forladtt Teleportation Formation would
probably be closed by the time he had healed his injuries."
Xachary lifted his arm and slapped Rebella across the face forcefully. The lady dropped to the floor.
"What did Lyla tell you before she left?" Xachary hissed, "Keeping the man from the Dark World
trapped is as equally important as our war against the other Genesis Worlds.
"Yet, you came back just because you captured Nando Brown?!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBlood oozed from the corner of Rebella's mouth. She straightened herself a little.
"Master, I didn't return just to bring Nando here..."
"What is it then?" Xachary fumed.
"It's the priestess!" Rebella raised her head. "She had somehow managed to master the Heavenly Path
Power already!"
The frown on Xachary's forehead grew deeper. "How is that possible?"
Rebella drew a long breath. "It's true. I had the chance to kill that man back in the Forladtt Land's
second level. However, the Priestess unleashed the Heavenly Path Power and trapped me
momentarily. The man from the Dark World used the opportunity to sneak away."
Xachary grabbed at the collar of Rebella's dress. "Did the girl run away with that man?"
"No." Rebella shook her head.
"Her powers and cultivation were below mine. I managed to break free from the Heavenly Path Power
holding me down, and the Priestess was affected by the powers that were deflected.
"She is unconscious, and I've brought her back to our headquarters."
"This is somewhat good news for us." Xachary turned around and placed his hands on his back.
"Someone, relay my message right now!"
A man rushed into the hall the next instant.
“Head to the front lines immediately." Xachary began once the man stopped before him, “Tell Mr.
Gladwin and Ms. Lyla to halt all battle operations and return to the headquarters. I have important
missions for them."
The man bowed and hurried out of the hall.
Rebella stood up and walked over to Xachary. “Master, is the mission about the Priestess' having
mastered the Heavenly Path Power?"
“That's none of your business." Xachary cast her a stony gaze. “You should return to the Forladtt Land
and make sure to keep the man from the Dark World trapped there."
Rebella had a look of confusion on her face. “Master, it would be dangerous in the Forladtt Land once
the teleportation formation closes. I might even be killed by the blustery winds created..."
“You're worried that you'll lose your life due to the winds." Xachary said monotonously, “Aren't you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmworried that I may decide to end you myself?"
Rebella's eyes bulged with shock.
She did not expect that Xachary would readily choose to sacrifice her just because he wanted the man
from the Dark World dead.
Rebella closed her eyes briefly and inhaled deeply. “There's a Yuraeceon Daelm Rank's Ninth
Tribulation cultivator on the third level."
“I'm telling you to go, not that person." Xachary said in a low voice, “Are you going or not?"
Rebella's heart sank as she could detect Xachary's murderous intent. She let out a sigh and nodded.
“I'll go now."
She started walking toward the door.
Xachary warned, “Don't try to wiggle your way out of this, or you can consider yourself banished from
the Timaeus Sect."
“Yes," Rebella answered quietly before she walked out of the hall.
