That wasn’t the real him? What did that mean?
Alex failed to comprehend the situation. Since Seth had revealed his true appearance, he certainly knew that that wasn’t the real Plenilune Sect master but a fake. He did not even need a reminder.
Frostine, on the other hand, was overwrought. “This is a substitute. He’s an old monster. He’s an old monster who has been living ever since ancient times. Hurry up and go!”
A bit startled, Alex nodded lightly.
“Understood.”
If it was before he encountered Dave Quinn, he might be astonished for real. But now, he had known many secrets from the end of ancient times, so he wasn’t that surprised.
“So what if you understand?” asked Seth. “Since you found your way here, can you still leave here alive? It just happens that this scaffold lacks fresh blood. I’ll use your blood and flesh to open up the passage to the sanctuary!”
As soon as he said that…
Whoosh!
Another few people rushed over.
It was Hermione Yggdrasill, Erica Quartet, the fourth elder of the Plenilune Sect, and several sect disciples. Erica was stunned when she saw Seth. Then, she screamed in panic, “Seth Zamora, how could it be you? Is that really you? You’re the one who killed our sect master?”
Previously, Seth and Jenson, the sect master, were on intimate terms. Generally, the top echelons of the sect knew about that and recognized him. It was certainly normal that Erica recognized Seth at a glance.
Combined with Hermione’s words, Erica believed most of it. It was because this place was the Plenilune Scaffold and Seth was an outsider, so principally, he would not be able to come here.
However, he was here.
“Oh, yes. What about it?”
Seth glanced at Erica indifferently. He paid no attention to this elder of the Plenilune Sect at all. She was just like an ant.
“What about the sect master’s wife then? And also the young sect master? Did you kill them too?” Erica screamed at the top of her lungs.
Erica flew dozens of meters away and crashed into one a pillar of the Plenilune Scaffold. It was if a high-speed train had hit her. The pillar was unscathed, but Erica didn’t look so good. She abruptly spat blood and half of her chest had collapsed.
To have such lethality from a casual blow… Seth’s terror was evident.
Hermione and the others were stunned. Several sect disciples even felt their limbs trembling uncontrollably. At the same time, Alex rushed to her senior, Frostine, like lightning.
“Senior, endure it a little longer. I’ll pull the chains out.” Alex held Frostine in his arms, heartbroken.
Although he did not spend a long time with the senior, she was sincere and loved him dearly.
However, Frostine screamed horribly the moment he exerted force in his hand. It seemed Alex didn’t pull out the chain, but her life.
“Argh!”
“How could this be?”
