“No, there is no other way.” Diana shook her head. Her exquisite face looked helpless. “The best way now is to use the oar to put him on a small boat. When he stops breathing, we’ll have to cremate him quickly. Otherwise, if the venom were to spread, then all of us would not be able to survive as well.”
Diana had read ancient manuals about water venom. She knew that it was scary!
Gasp!
The crowd erupted into an uproar.
They did not only have to put Alan on a small boat, but they had to cremate him as well! It was too cruel!
“Diana, you—” Alan pointed his fingers at Diana; his ghostly blue face was full of resentment. “Don’t make this personal!”
There must be a way to get the antidote for the venom in him. Diana only made it sound scary because of the rivalry between them. Did she not make that personal?
At the same time, Tina quickly walked forward. She looked at Diana angrily and said, “Diana Olsen! Stop with your lies. You’re just trying to intimidate us by saying that if we don’t save him within two hours, he will be dead.”
Tina glared at Darryl and continued with hatred in her voice. “It’s fine to favor your own disciple, but how could you be so vicious to want to harm my master? You are the most heinous woman…”
The other Ryukin Gold Altar disciples also glared at Diana and chimed in.
“Yes, you’re vile!”
“You take your grudges so personally; what right do you have to be an Altar Master?”
“Terrible! From what I can see, I think our master is fine…”
They painted Diana as a villainous woman.
Under normal circumstances, the Ryukin Gold Altar disciples would not dare to say such things about Diana, as she was the Celestial Wood’s Altar Master. She was cold and arrogant and had one of the highest authority in the Holy Saint Sect.
However, when she suggested that they put their master on a small boat and cremate him upon his death, they no longer cared about her status.
The Celestial Wood Altar disciples could no longer take it as well. They entered into an argument with the Ryukin Gold Altar disciples.
“As if! Your master was poisoned. What does that have to do with our master?”
“Our master’s suggestion is for the greater good…”
“F*ck. Unappreciative b*stards!”
Russell walked forward and waved his hands. They could hear his crisp voice clearly. “Master Diana is only thinking about everyone’s safety…”
Then, Russell looked at Diana and sighed. “This is very unfortunate for Master Alan. I know that everyone is unwilling, but the water venom is too terrifying. So, let’s do according to Master Diana’s suggestion.”
He signaled to the disciples to make preparations to put Alan on a small boat.
“Don’t touch our master!”
“My master is not dead yet!”
