The Altar Master explained in detail, "I am just speculating. Princess Heather's last known location was somewhere near Donghai City. She then simply vanished without a trace. I believe people from the Sea Dragon Palace have kidnapped her."
What? Ambrose felt as if his heart had stopped beating. "Then did you send anyone to check in the camp of the Sea Dragon Palace?" he asked, standing up immediately and feeling anxious and nervous.
The Altar Master lowered his head, embarrassed. "I tried. Their camps, however, were on high alert. My men were unable to enter the camps at all. So—"
Before he could finish the sentence, Ambrose interrupted him. "Stop. Deploy defense for the headquarters. I'm going to Donghai City."
"Sect Master!" The Altar Master was stunned, and he immediately tried to persuade Ambrose anxiously. "You should not risk yourself."
Ambrose was a powerful man, but the young leader of the Sea Dragon Palace was even more so. Ambrose going to Donghai City alone would be the same as surrendering to the enemy.
Ambrose was adamant. "I have to leave. If anything were to happen to Heather, I would be devastated for the rest of my life. You don't have to persuade me further."
Then he got ready to leave the main hall. Right then, a few men were intruding on Elysium Gate and were already outside the main entrance. They were wearing the same yellow robe. They were the elite members of the Shaolin Sect, and they seemed very strong.
Instead, the group's leader was dressed in a red cassock. He held a staff in his hand. There was an aura of unfathomable nobility and majesty surrounding him. It was Sect Master Endless.
"Sect Master Endless?" Ambrose was stunned when he saw Sect Master Endless visiting the Elysium Gate. He said politely, "I didn't know that you were coming. Welcome. I hope you won't mind that I didn't prepare ahead."
He said, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Ambrose was curious. Elysium Gate and Shaolin Sect were not close. There was hardly any interaction between both sects. No one would blame Ambrose for overthinking the sudden visit from Sect Master Endless.
