Hanes nodded and followed Zander and Mayze. After leaving the Henningsen residence, Hanes asked, “Where is the telepathic beast?”
“Master, I have something to tell you…”
Mayze grabbed Hanes and led him to a secluded spot. She detailed everything they had encountered in the Spirit Beast Valley to Hanes.
Upon hearing that his disciple had unexpectedly encountered Jared, Hanes was shocked, especially when he heard that Jared had let them all go.
“Master, I lied to you earlier to help you escape. If Mr. Cabeza found out that we didn’t manage to capture the telepathic beast, he would surely blame us. There’s a chance we won’t even be able to leave this place,” Mayze explained softly.
“Master, let’s leave the Demon Seal Alliance. These people have never treated us as equals.”
At that moment, Zander also spoke up.
“Indeed, let’s leave the alliance. Without the telepathic beast, we simply can’t find Elder Fabrizio. Once the three days are over, Mr. Cabeza will certainly make a move against us.”
“Moreover, it was Mr. Cabeza who accompanied Xavion. After Xavion’s death, Mr. Cabeza didn’t dare to report the matter to Mr. Lefterov. He wanted Soulless Hall to take the blame instead. As for whether Elder Fabrizio truly defected, who knows what the truth is,” Mayze shared her analysis with Hanes.
Hanes’s brows furrowed slightly, reflecting the dilemma he was in.
Without the telepathic beast, we might not even find Elder Fabrizio in three months, let alone three days. Moreover, we don’t even know whether Xanthus is alive or dead at the moment. If Mr. Cabeza deliberately said so, intending to make us, the Soulless Hall, take the blame, what could we possibly do?
After much consideration, Hanes finally nodded and said, “Alright, inform all disciples of Soulless Hall to leave Henningsen City. We’ll just wait and see what happens!”
The siblings nodded in agreement and immediately went to deliver the news.
Back in Blood Spirit Valley, Igor proceeded to thoroughly clean the place after burying his deceased disciples.
Montane Daemon stayed by Igor’s side, constantly fearing that Igor would collapse under the weight of the emotional burden.
After all, Blood Spirit Valley had existed for thousands of years but now teetered on the brink of annihilation in Igor’s hands. This left Igor utterly humiliated, unable to face his predecessors.
Montane Daemon gently patted Igor’s shoulder and said, “Igor, as long as you’re still around, Blood Spirit Valley continues to exist, so don’t be too hard on yourself.”
