The Man’s Decree

“There's no way such a simple arcane array can stop me,” Zsolt Kinsley sneered.

He continued chanting his spell, and runes began to ascend into the air from his body. As they floated in the air, they fired off rays of light that relentlessly struck the Mountain Defense Formation.

Boom!

The Mountain Defense Formation began to tremble uncontrollably together with the entire base of Emerald Cauldron Sect. From the looks of it, the Mountain Defense Formation wasn't going to last much longer.

At that moment, the atmosphere of the main hall of Emerald Cauldron Sect was gloomy.

Sitting on the throne, Viola wore a solemn expression with her brows tightly knitted.

“Ms. Warwick, I'm afraid the Mountain Defense Formation won't last much longer. You should flee through the secret passageway, while we stay back and fend off Hosen,” Ghaylen persuaded Viola.

They knew that once Hosen had breached the sect compound with the men from Norwal City, they would stand no chance against him, especially given the fact that he had a cultivator at Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm by his side.

Once the Mountain Defense Formation was destroyed, a massacre would be the only fate that awaited them. Viola, as the lord of the sect, had to be kept alive.

As long as she still lived, Emerald Cauldron Sect would continue to exist.

“Mr. Samoll, I've already contacted Jared. I'm sure he's already on his way here. As lord of the sect, there's no way I can flee in the face of danger. Even in death, Emerald Cauldron Sect will be my burial ground!” Viola said with conviction.

“Ms. Warwick, even if Mr. Chance is on his way here, it will be some time before he arrives. The Mountain Defense Formation will crumble by then. You should take Mr. Samoll's advice. As long as you're still alive, the sect will continue to exist! Don't worry. We will not submit to Hosen. Even though he was our master before this, we won't betray you.”

Sigurd, too, tried to convince Viola.

Everyone hoped that she would escape from the secret passageway.

“Enough. Stop trying to get me to leave. I definitely won't do it. Worse comes to worst, I'll just die here. Our priority right now is to think of a way to buy more time.”

Viola waved her hand for them to stop convincing her to leave.

“Ms. Warwick, even if Mr. Chance arrives, I'm afraid he isn't powerful enough to take on a cultivator at Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm. He has, after all, only achieved Body Fusion Realm recently. Even though he can fight against a cultivator at Third Level Body Fusion Realm, that is likely his limit. No one can defeat an enemy with such a big gulf in strength. Therefore, it's advisable for you to leave at once and not place your hopes on Mr. Chance!”

Ghaylen didn't think that Jared was capable of taking out a cultivator at Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm.

After all, Jared had just achieved Body Fusion Realm. Even though he had easily defeated Faiyar and controlled Ebenez, both of them were only cultivators at Third Level Body Fusion Realm.
