Chapter 534 Growing Suspicion
“Stop blabbering on. Bring me to the women so I can free them,” Jared said icily.
“All right.” Elijah bobbed his head in agreement. Without any further delays, he led Jared to the back of the chapel.
Shane clenched his jaw and followed suit. Similarly, Tristan helped a stricken Megan along.
Behind the chapel loomed an enormous cliff. Its towering height would cause one to feel a sense of foreboding.
Elijah walked to the cliff and rapped his knuckles against it three times. Once he finished the sequence, the cliff wall slid open to reveal a secret door.
Inside the hidden room was a large prison cell that held several young women within it. The moment the cell doors swung upon, the women instantly cowered in fear.
When Elijah stepped closer, piercing screams filled the air.
Upon seeing this, Jared grabbed Elijah by the collar and gave the latter a furious glare.
“I-It wasn’t me! Fabian made me do it,” Elijah blustered when he locked gazes with Jared.
Megan, who was still in a daze, jolted in shock when she caught sight of these women. Though they appeared similar in age to her, their clothes were in tatters, making them look like pitiful beggars.
Slowly, Megan walked over to them. Upon noticing that Megan was of the same sex, the women calmed down.
“What a bunch of animals!” Megan cursed under her breath. How could the Crescent Sect treat them this way?
With Megan’s help comforting the women, they managed to free them all. The moment they stepped foot out of their cell, the women took off in all directions, afraid that they’d be captured again if they lingered around. Before Jared and the rest could react, all of the women had vanished into the distance.
Initially, Jared wanted to enlist some help to send these women back to their homes. Nevertheless, with them all gone, he shifted his attention back to Elijah. “Bring me to your headquarters now!”
