My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash and Hera) novel Chapter 1758

"Second Elder, look toward the west!" Maggie suddenly exclaimed.

Citrine followed Maggie's gaze to the west. A colorful beam of light connecting the sky and earth had appeared at some point. When she saw this, her expression changed. "It’s a sign. There must be an immortal treasure somewhere!"

Hearing this, Maggie excitedly asked, "Should we go and check it out?"

With Laverne and Ethel gone, she now felt the need to defer to Citrine. Normally, her two seniors would have taken her along without hesitation.

Citrine shook her head. "That's the Divine Strategy Squadron’s territory. We'd better not go there.”

Maggie's eyes dimmed. "Second Elder, don't you plan to avenge the Great Elder?"

Citrine was silent momentarily before snapping coldly, "We will, but now is not the time.”

To exact revenge, one had to have the power to do so. Nash's strength has surpassed the Profound Oriental Realm, and even their leader might be helpless against him now. What could Citrine do? Use her words?

Maggie sighed to herself and then turned her gaze to Bristol. Since she was unable to rely on Citrine, she decided to seek help from Bristol. The elder and her two seniors from the Unfettered Sect had cherished her like family despite the lack of blood relations.

"Elder McGee, when do you plan to deal with Nash?"

Bristol confidently said, "Rest assured, young lady. I guarantee they won't be leaving this secret realm alive!"

Hearing this, Maggie finally smiled, her canine teeth peeking out.

…

On the observation deck of the Temple of Frey, the Western cultivators were staring at the colorful beam of light that connected the sky and earth.

Hand on his staff, Maidee’s eyes narrowed as he muttered, "A divine weapon has probably emerged in that area. We must find a way to get it.”

"Our vice president is severely injured and unable to travel," Maidee replied and then smiled faintly. "Mr. Bobbit, are you afraid?"

Bobbit chuckled. "The Great Eagle Guild doesn't use weapons, so I'm not interested in that divine weapon!"

He knew Maidee was trying to set him up. With Alto severely injured, Maidee needed to ensure he had the upper hand, and that required weakening Bobbit as well.

Seeing that Bobbit was not taking the bait, Maidee merely smiled slightly before turning to the other guild members. "Does anyone else want to seize this opportunity?"

The crowd shook their heads, no one daring to step forward.

At that moment, a sorrowful sigh echoed from within the temple. Shock assaulted their expressions. It clearly did not come from Alto, so who was it?

Both Maidee and Bobbit looked toward the main hall.
