She would figure out a way to get up there herself.

Skadi turned around and was startled.

Her hands were pressed against the stone block, and her face was

directly facing Cillian’s belly button.

As she slowly looked up, her eyes met a cold, handsome face.

Cillian…

Skadi’s scalp tingled as she hurriedly sank to the bottom of the water

again.

However, when she sank beneath the water, she saw Cillian’s bare

legs.

As well as…

Oh my god!

Skadi shut her eyes. Her heart was racing.

An unknown period of time later, Skadi floated to the top of the water.

She had gone unconscious from holding her breath for so long…

Cillian operated his energy center and expelled a breath of cold air

from his mouth.

He waved a hand and summoned the clothes hanging from a nearby

tree to him.

After he put on his clothes, he took Skadi out of the water and jumped toward the mountain peak.

Skadi was woken up by the sound of wind whooshing past her ears.

She realized she was lying in Cillian’s arms.

Cillian scaled the mountain quickly.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the top of the mountain.

Skadi closed her eyes, pretending she was still unconscious.

She thought to herself, ‘Cillian will probably begin giving me CPR now, right?

Cillian placed Skadi on a flat rock.

Skadi’s heart raced. However, even after waiting for a long while,

Cillian did not give her CPR.

She sneakily opened an eye. Cillian had vanished.

Lloyd took the young Path practitioner to Quiet Winds Church ain

halls.

There, he bumped into Caine speaking to several other practi

while having tea.

Lloyd roared, “Who deactivated the Mountain Shield Formation?”

Caine said calmly, “I did!”

The other switch was in a terrible state of decay, and he had spe the whole day repairing it.

Thankfully, the energy stone inside the formation had not shattered

yet. Otherwise, the Mountain Shield Formation could never be

activated ever again.

He felt like he had done Quiet Winds Church a massive favor.

Lloyd pointed a finger at Caine and yelled, “You bastard! How dare

you go against the church’s orders?! How are you going to make up

for this?”

Caine said loftily, “You and Cillian activated the Mountain Shield

Formation without getting our consent and wasted Quiet Wind Church’s resources. We aren’t even holding you and Cillian

accountable for that, but here you are interrogating us?”

Lloyd sneered. “I’ll have someone replace you as the third elder once

they’re qualified to do so, Caine Twilight!”

Caine took a sip of tea before he chuckled and said, “That’ll be

entirely dependent on your skills…”

He had four other elders on his side, and most of the practitioners at

Quiet Winds Church obeyed him. Why should he be afraid of Lloyd

and Cillian when they did not have as much power?

Lloyd turned to the other elders and asked coolly, “So, looks like

you’re all on the third elder’s side?”

“Quiet Winds Church’s earnings have taken a nosedive after Cillian

assumed his position, Lloyd. That makes it difficult to convince the

masses!”

“Ever since Cillian took charge, he first abolished all ticketing charges

and then made all services free. Then, he created a TikTok account

Chapter 829

and donated all the money he got from posting there to charity!”

“You might be famous now, but have you ever thought about how we and the one thousand disciples at Quiet Winds Church are going to feed and clothe ourselves?”

The fifth elder spoke up. He always became huffy whenever he brought up this topic with the third elder and the others.

The sixth elder sighed and added, “We grew up together, Lloyd. When have we ever gone against Cillian since he assumed his position? Aren’t we sacrificing our lives for the sake of Quiet Winds Church’s honor by protecting the warden?”

Lloyd sneered. “So, you don’t think Cillian deserves to be the principal?”

The seventh elder spoke up, “Cillian’s character is not sufficiently collected. Quiet Winds Church will collapse under his leadership!”

Lloyd scoffed angrily. “I know.what you mean. You’re just trying to get Caine to become the principal instead. Let me make this clear, though. As long as I’m alive, Caine can continue dreaming about becoming the principal…”

Thunder crashed loudly outside as Lloyd completed his senten

It was as if even God was on his side.
