The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 5382

Ho ho…

At the words, Zacho smirked as his gaze flashed icily. "You have no say in how this ends."

As the final word rang through the air, Zacho waved his right hand. The long sword flew out of his grasp, piercing Adam square in his chest.

"Ugh…"

Blood sprayed from the wound as Adam's gaze was nothing but furious. He collapsed to the floor, blocking his acupoint as he sputtered.

The cultivation method of the True Flame Sect was vastly different from that of the other sects in the wandering world. The Art of Grand Brightness, in particular, was capable of reviving oneself. The key move lay in blocking one's acupoint right before their point of death.

As he blocked his acupoint, Adam used his other hand to retrieve a firework signal and set it off.

In the blink of an eye, the firework signal went off as it exploded in a shower of sparks in the sky.

Upon doing so, Adam turned to stare mockingly at Zacho. "The True Flame Sect won't let you get away with this…"

Before he could finish speaking, Adam tilted his head to the side as his breathing stopped completely.

Mortherf*cker!

Seeing the firework signal in the sky and hearing Adam's last words, Zacho's expression flashed uncomfortably. "What a piece of sh*t! Refusing to let go even at death's bay."

As he spoke, Zacho walked forward and kicked Adam. Upon making sure that his breathing had stopped, he squatted down to search his body.

Ha ha…

A few seconds later, Zacho took out a scroll. Upon seeing that the words 'Art of Grand Brightness' was carved on it, he let out a bellowing laugh towards the heavens.

"I've got it, the True Flame Sect's Art of Grand Brightness. I've finally got it."

Upon laughing, Zacho put away the scroll before returning to the cave ruins in search of Sam's body.

Just then, Zacho was unable to hide his grief. "My beloved pupil, I've killed Adam Bedford, and avenged you as well as gotten the scroll. You can rest in peace now."

All the officials sat gathered with heavy expressions. Next to them stood Rachelle in a long dress, unable to hide the panic and worry on her face.

The atmosphere in the room was unspeakably heavy.

The True Flame Sect had spent a whole day and night searching for Adam, but could not find anything.

Rachelle cast a glance around her, unable to hide her fury. "All of you… Are the lot of you useless? How could so many of you fail at finding one person?"

As she roared, Rachelle was riddled with panic. The True Flame Sect had been second-class for too long until a prodigy like Adam appeared, and he was the sect's only hope at growing successful. If anything happened to him, that hope would be destroyed.

In the face of Rachelle's roars, all the officials lowered their heads in shame, none of them daring to respond.

At last, one of the officials stepped forward to say in a careful tone, "Honorable Holy Nun, the Sect Master's gone missing. You should step up as temporary Sect Master for now."

As he spoke, one of the pupils rushed in at top speed with an overwhelmed expression.

"Holy Nun, there's a signal… Northwest, we just saw a True Flame Sect firework signal."
