The Man's Decree novel Chapter 2579

Chapter 2579 Lies

Meanwhile, in Emerald Cauldron Sect, Francois was standing before his master, Hosen Holt. The former was feeling guilty, so his legs were trembling slightly.

“Are you saying that Brutus has Grus Divina, and he'll come back with it in two days' time?” Hosen asked.

“Yes, Master. You asked to see me urgently, so I didn't get to meet up with Brutus. However, Brutus told me he was coming back with Grus Divina within the next three days!” Francois told a lie because he didn't dare to tell his master that someone else had gotten Grus Divina. If I tell Master the truth, he'll punish me!

While looking at his disciple, Hosen suddenly laughed out loud. A sense of foreboding rose within Francois when he saw Hosen laughing.

Slap!

The smile on Hosen's face vanished in the next second, and it was replaced by a grim look when he delivered a tight slap across Francois' face.

“How dare you lie to me? Isn't it true that someone else has taken Grus Divina?” Hosen thundered.

Francois froze momentarily and asked in bewilderment, “Master, h-how did you know?”

“How? I saw it with my own eyes! In fact, Grus Divina was made into a pill before my eyes! The two of you are utter idiots! You couldn't even get your hands on Grus Divina! What a bunch of trash! You're worthless to me!” Hosen fumed, and he wanted to kill Francois there and then. I wouldn't have lost the bet if Jared hadn't harvested Grus Divina. I even had to kneel before him!

“Master... I-It was my fault... I-I'm sorry...” Francois knelt before Hosen and assured, “Don't worry, Master. We've already located the man who harvested the mystical herb. Once he returns to the village, Brutus will capture him. He shouldn't have snatched with Emerald Cauldron Sect! Death awaits that man!”

Francois thought Brutus was more than capable of defeating Jared.
