CHAPTER 2649 HELIUS MAKES AN ENTRANCE
“No one can stop me today! Listen up, my disciples! Kill them all to avenge the death of your senior!”
At this time, Ebenez had gone mad. He even resorted to ordering his own disciples to attack Ghaylen's disciples!
Bilius' demise had sent shockwaves through Ebenez, igniting an uncontrollable rage within him.
As Jared witnessed this, his aura surged forth, and the Power of Three gradually began to spread toward his surroundings.
Jared didn't want to see the disciples of Emerald Cauldron Sect fighting each other. Such infighting would only lead to mutual destruction, and that would delay the activation of the medicinal pool.
That was not what he wanted. Moreover, he had plans to take over Emerald Cauldron Sect for his own benefit. If the sect ended up ruined, it wouldn't serve his interests at all.
Thus, he decided to intervene and join Ghaylen in dealing with Ebenez. As long as they subdued the latter, the fighting would cease.
However, just as Jared was about to act against Ebenez, a terrifyingly intense aura enveloped them all. Everyone froze and looked up at the sky in astonishment.
“You ungrateful disciples! You dare to cause strife within Emerald Cauldron Sect instead of taking it to greater heights?”
A loud and enraged voice rang out in the air. Following that, a series of brilliant lights shot through the sky from the back of the sect before an elderly figure emerged from the radiance.
The old man wore a gray robe and exuded a formidable aura.
In mid-air, he gazed down at everyone standing below him with anger in his eyes.
With a wave of his hand, a shocking pressure descended upon all of them, and everyone fell to their knees instantly.
Jared tried hard to resist the terrifying force that was pressuring him to submit, but he still ended up falling to one knee on the ground.
“Eighth Level Body Fusion Realm...”
Jared felt the strength of the elderly man's cultivation level. Even though he wanted to resist, he was powerless to do so.
In fact, even if he broke through to the Body Fusion Realm, he wouldn't stand a chance against an Eighth Level expert.
“H-Helius...”
Ebenez saw the old man and trembled in fear while kneeling on the ground.
Among all the people present, only Ebenez had met Helius before, so he recognized the latter immediately.
Helius?
All the people from the Emerald Cauldron Sect were in disbelief as they stared at the figure before them with equal measures of awe and fear.
Before this moment, they had only heard rumors of Helius Taidell, the most revered elder in Emerald Cauldron Sect. He was a legendary figure who was the bedrock of the sect. However, very few had actually seen him in the flesh.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Now that Helius had appeared in person, the disciples of Emerald Cauldron Sect were both excited and terrified.
Ebenez and Ghaylen found their hearts racing with terror as they could sense that Helius' wrath was aimed at them.
“As elders of Emerald Cauldron Sect, how dare you engage in internal conflict? Are you trying to rebel against the sect's rules?”
Eyes ablaze with fury, Helius interrogated Ebenez and Ghaylen in a voice as cold as ice.
“Helius, please calm down. It was Ebenez who broke the rules and attacked others first. I was forced to defend the sect and myself!” Ghaylen hurriedly spoke up.
Hearing this, Ebenez quickly explained, “Helius, that's not the case at all. It was Ghaylen's disciple who killed my eldest disciple and cut off his head, so I had to take action.”
“That was a duel to the death. It was clearly stated before they stepped onto the arena that one of them must die. You—”
Ghaylen wanted to retort, but before he could finish his words, Helius casually waved his hand. Both Ghaylen and Ebenez were sent flying into the air before they crashed heavily to the ground.
“I don't want to hear your nonsense. As elders, if you can't set an example to others, what use are you to me?” Helius said coldly.
At these words, Ebenez and Ghaylen turned pale. They hurriedly fell to their knees again and desperately apologized to Helius.
“Helius, please calm down. We were wrong, and we won't dare to do it again. Please give us another chance...” Ebenez and Ghaylen pleaded desperately.
“In consideration of this being your first offense, I won't punish you too harshly. Each of you will receive fifty slaps to the face,” Helius ordered.
Ebenez and Ghaylen were overjoyed at this somewhat lenient punishment. They willingly began to hit themselves in the face. After all, this was much better than losing their lives.
