âHeâs Elder Quint?â The sect master was stunned, completely dumbfounded, and unclear.
âYes.â
Hermione Yggdrasil was Elder Quintâs disciple, and she was still familiar with her own master. She had
quickly determined that the incomplete corpse in front of her was her master.
Hermione did not harbor much sadness when faced with the death of her master. She had also
watched with her own eyes how the
Yggdrasil family had been struck to death by lightning just now, including her grandfather, her parents,
and her sister, among others. If she were an ordinary person, she would have probably been bawling
her eyes out bitterly. However, Hermione didnât shed a single drop of tear. It was as though those
relatives of hers meant nothing.
In actuality, that was likely true.
Hermione had been very talented since she was a child. From a young age, she had relied on a
rubbish method of cultivation and cultivated to heights the ordinary couldnât reach. That was why she
had caught the eyes of the people from the Plenilune Sect, which took her into their walls.
Since then, Hermioneâs personality also began to change.
She started to feel good about herself and placed herself above others. She even felt bored with her
family because they were not of a high-status origin, and there were no outstanding people from them
as well. It embarrassed her deeply, and she couldnât hold her head up high in front of many rich and
powerful disciples.
Then, during this time, she coincidentally got her hands on the mantle of the goddess.
This changed her personality even more, and she became completely defiant to the point even the sect
master wanted to please her. Wasnât he the highest-ranking person in the Plenilune Sect then?
The Yggdrasil family was even more unworthy of her circle.
âIf heâs dead, then heâs dead! But, for daring to destroy my Yggdrasil family, I will settle this debt sooner
or later!â
At this moment, Plenilune Sectâs sect master lowered himself to the ground in an unimaginable manner
and started rummaging around Elder Quintâs corpse. He was looking for the Extreme Heavenâs Gourd
and the storage ring.
Especially the storage ring.
He had just learned from Hermione that the goddess had given her a jade medal when she imparted
her inheritance to Hermione. The jade medal was related to the huge secret of an ancient sect.
However, when Hermione sealed off the place, she handed the jade medal to her master for temporary
safekeeping.
Now, Elder Quint died suddenly.
Jenson Springer and Hermione were naturally anxious to find those items. However, there was nothing.
Nothingâ¦
Even if they dug to the bottom of the hundreds meter deep pit and searched, they wouldnât find any
signs of it.
Jenson looked at the grand elder, Yngwie Foust, with unkind eyes. âGrand Elder, you had better not lie.
The ring in Elder Quintâs hands is of great importance to the prosperity of our Plenilune Sect. If you
bring it out now, I will pretend it never happened. But if you hid it away for your private gain, you know
the consequences!â
The grand elderâs eyelid jumped. What did that mean?
Did the sect master suspect that he had hidden it for his own private gain?
âSect Master, the heavens can be my witness. I havenât kept Elder Quintâs ring or weapon for my
private gain. I am willing to swear on my life.â
The sect master looked at him.
The grand elder grumbled in his heart. He felt that the master had been behaving very weirdly recently,
and he had changed a lot from how he was before. The master had become even more unpredictable
and mysterious, and Yngwie couldnât tell what Jenson was thinking.
At this moment, he had no choice but to make a vicious oath in public.
With that, the sect masterâs eyes eased, and he said, âThen, think about it properly. If there was anyone
who could have taken Elder Quintâs ring and weapon, who would it most likely be?â
âWho?â
The grand elder could immediately name one person. It was Alex, whom he had previously crossed
paths with.
Three minutes later, the sect master gave an order. âGo right away, head into the Misty Swamp. Dead
or alive, you must find that brat for me.â
