My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1927

“Twenty years of not keeping up with the world and focusing on your cultivation, that's both a good and a bad thing.”

“It’s good because your intentions are just as pure and poised as they always were. The bad thing, however, is that you're too much of an open book, to the point where you're too easy to read. It’s extremely difficult for you to break out of that habit given your current position.

"I understand how you feel. Nash's nearly alien-like rapid growth is causing you to feel insecure, haha. You two are on completely different ends of the spectrum.

"He’s also experiencing feelings of helplessness after meeting you. I’m not forcing you to do anything, but this is a choice you have to make. If you collapse now, I'll disable the array. If you wish to continue, you may lose your life.

Zaafea clapped Clint on his shoulder.

A foul expression appeared on Clint’s face as he collapsed. Soon, the array was removed.

Just then, a burly man wearing a flowery jacket walked over.

“What are you doing in the Southern Territory?” Zaafea asked as he gazed at the burly man.

“Gosh, the lady at home is just too kind, and she wanted me to pass on a message.”

“Oh? Tell me what you have.”

Zaafea’s interest was piqued.

“The Endless Horizon Sect has collapsed.”

“What happened?”

“One of the disciples went mad and killed all the other disciples and elders. The sect master was only able to stop him temporarily after using all the skills he had mastered.”

“Gone mad? What does that have to do with me?”

“It has nothing to do with you, but it’s related to Mr. Clint Melton.”

“Oh, you can talk to him, then. I’m going to get something to eat.”

“No, wait! The patriarch specifically requested that I share the news with you first.”

“I see. Looks like his tribulation has begun as well.”
