The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 473

One should know that Cloudnine Sect was a titan that none of Riverton could afford the challenge—even Sage Lake Sect was no more than an ant to them.

They had plenty of elites who had reached the pinnacle of Birthright rank, and some were even said to be Ascension rank individuals. Rumor even has it that their chief reached godhood three years ago!

The top ten of Skyrank were all affiliated among the South Sea Four, and they could not care less about Riverton.

And yet, Frank was so pompous that he did not worry about them?

At that moment, Burt's curiosity toward Frank beat his fear of the man.

What on earth happened at the Battle of the South Sea three years ago? Why would this apprentice of Mystic Sky Sect end up here in little Riverton?

Still, he did not pry since he was still at Frank's mercy.

Suddenly inspired despite the threat of death, Burt kowtowed, pressing his face into the blood all over the floor as he said, "Mr. Lawrence, you heard what Quinn Ocean said before—I'm never escaping Sage Lake Sect. This is too serious, and they will blame it on me even if you let me live. And since Quinn is so eager to pass such an unfair judgment on me, I'd rather rid myself of them and swear fealty to Mystic Sky Sect!"

He slammed his forehead heavily on the floor before Frank's feet once more, knowing that his head would roll if Frank did not agree to his request.

But like he said, if the Sage Lake Sect investigated the issue and the Salazars talked, he would definitely be implicated.

He would definitely be made scapegoat, be it with the death of a Sage Lake Sect elder or the daughter of an elder.

That was why he decided to just burn bridges and join Frank instead. If anything, he was sick of the Sage Lake Sect always treating him around like their lapdog anyway.

As he knelt, holding his breath from being too loud, he felt like he must have stayed in that position for a year, even though it was barely a minute.
