The Man's Decree novel Chapter 2660

Chapter 2660 Reflection

“Mr. Samoll has arrived!” informed one of the disciples stationed outside the door.

Swiftly, Ghaylen strode into the main hall with Jared at his side.

When Jared and Hosen locked eyes, the latter's expression darkened, resembling the night itself.

The moment Hosen glanced at Jared, memories of having to kneel before him at Imperial Beast City flooded back into his mind.

Despite the surge of emotions, Hosen knew he couldn't afford to lose his temper at that moment. He couldn't possibly reveal to others that he had kneeled before Jared as doing so would tarnish his reputation as the leader of the sect.

“Hosen,” Ghaylen greeted respectfully with a bow.

“Ghaylen, I've heard that you've taken in a new disciple, and he seems quite powerful, doesn't he? Not only did he destroy several residences in the sect, but he even killed Bilius. It appears your disciples have quite a promising future. They've been causing trouble while I was away. It seems they have little regard for me, the leader of the sect. Nevertheless, I'm back now, and I won't let this slide. Tell me, what is the punishment for disciples who defy their seniors and create chaos in the sect?”

Hosen was quick to assert his dominance, reminding Ghaylen of his position as the leader of the sect.

However, Ghaylen remained composed and unruffled. He calmly explained, “You might not be aware, but it was Bilius who first destroyed my house and harmed my disciples. Jared only acted in retaliation. Besides, Bilius' death happened at the arena. They were in a fight to their deaths, so it's not entirely surprising that one of them met such an end. Moreover, the ultimate demon beast from the Octo Ruler that Bilius released nearly wreaked havoc on the entire sect. The news of his actions even reached Helius' ears.”

Right as Ghaylen uttered those words, Hosen shuddered and leaped to his feet, his surprise evident on his face. “What? The news of that reached Helius?”

“Indeed. He even ordered you to reflect on your actions at the mountain for three days, starting from the moment of your return,” Ghaylen affirmed with a nod.

Hosen's shock was so immense that he almost fell to the ground, and his face turned as pale as death.

Then, Hosen swiftly turned his head toward Ebenez, his voice sharp and demanding. “Ebenez, is Ghaylen speaking the truth?”

“H-H-Helius did say that,” Ebenez managed to stammer.
