The King Class Warrior hurriedly answered, “I was a witness of the scene, and I speak only the truth.”
Jaime fell silent.
After a long while, Jaime finally asked, “Did the Supreme Leader send anyone to stop him?”
The King Class Warrior answered, “No. However, it seems like the Supreme Leader has called Zeke. After the call, Zeke had attacked even more vigorously.”
Jaime was confused. “What? Is he disobeying the Supreme Leader’s orders?”
With that, he took out his phone, planning to personally ask the Supreme Leader about the situation.
However, the call went unanswered.
Jaime laughed silently.
It was then that he realized that Zeke had not disobeyed the Supreme Leader’s order; the Supreme Leader was supporting Zeke’s actions in going against the Four Hidden Sects.
“D*** it! D*** it!” In his rage, Jaime threw his phone onto the ground. “Eurasia is worsening. Aren’t they afraid that the Four Hidden Sects will come out of their reclusive state, turning the world upside down?”
The King Class Warrior carefully asked, “Sir, shall we declare war on Eurasia?”
Jaime sighed, “No. Not for now at least. We have a hundred-year plan that’s about to come to an end. If anything goes wrong, our one hundred years of efforts will go to waste.”
The King Class Warrior froze.
It was then that he realized that the Four Hidden Sects were not true hermits.
They had been plotting a hundred-year plan.
Jaime answered, “Leave first. I’ll head out personally.”
“Yes, Sir!”
The King Class Warrior left with a tinge of disappointment in his heart.
At the end of the day, the head of the Carter sect still revealed himself; the Carter sect conceded, to Great Marshal’s wishes.
The Great Marshal, indeed, lived up to his title.
At the doorway of the Carter sect, everyone was increasingly tensed, with every ticking second.
There was not much time left for the Carter sect.
Finally, five minutes had gone by.
Zeke waved his hands and ordered, “Time is up. Blow up...”
“Wait!”
A thunderous voice cried out into everyone’s ears.
In the next second, a figure descended from the sky.
Slowly, he landed on the walls that had surrounded the Carter sect’s grounds.
He was dressed in a black cape, and it was billowing in the cold wind. His grand appearance caught the attention of everyone present.
Who else could it be but the head of the Carter sect, Jaime?
Jaime swept his gaze across the mess with an unchanging expression. However, anger was boiling within him.
Zeke sighed inwardly.
Jaime has great willpower.
His expression didn’t change, even after seeing the scene for himself.
Zeke coldly muttered, “Jaime Carter, you’ve finally come out. If you’d arrived earlier, the innocent people of the Carter sect could have been spared. It seems like the Carters’ lives are worth nothing to you.”
Jaime scoffed, “Great Marshal, you don’t need to try to sow discord among us. Why are you here?”
“Okay,” Zeke replied, “Mason of the Carter sect had impersonated Sole Wolf, my subordinate, and infiltrated the imperial mausoleum, killed my men, and stole Eurasia’s Spirit Stones. What punishment do you think he should have?”
Jaime questioned the King Class Warrior, “Is this true?”
He was the head of the Carter sect, and the actions of his outer sect’s disciples were not worth his time.
Hence, he knew nothing about this incident.
The King Class Warrior nodded. “It’s true.”
Jaime scoffed, “Hmph! Useless. The Carter sect has numerous treasures of its own. Why do we need to steal the Spirit Stones?”
