Averill blinked her eyes a few times and asked, That’s it? Are you sure you’re not just sit? Are you sure you’re not just frustrated and need me to comfort you?” 

Felix gave a bitter smile. 

“That’s really it. I’m hoping you can help, Averill.” 

“Alright. I get it. What a bore! If I had known it would be this dull, I wouldn’t have gone through the trouble of diverting Leslie.‘ 

Meanwhile, the atmosphere at the Great Imperial Sect was grim. After all, their Supreme Elder, who was considered the guardian of the sect, had perished. Who could possibly feel good in such a situation? 

“Mr. Cunningham! Are we just going to let this slide?” 

Days had passed since the incident. Though the elders gathered in the council hall daily, no one had much to say. 

The deputy sect leader glared angrily, sharing the same frustration as the rest, who were visibly unable to let go of their indignation. 

Jaxon glanced around and said coldly, “And what should we do? Even our Supreme Elder was struck dead by a lightning bolt. Do you really think we could kill Felix?” 

The room fell silent. 

Indeed, Felix had been expelled from Dragon Alliance, but no one was certain whether the one who summoned the lightning was someone from Dragon Alliance or Felix’s own connection. Without confirmation, who would dare make a move? 

“We should leave it to Xena. I know her well. Despite her devotion to her duties as a goddess of war, her heart is still with the Great Imperial Sect.” 

What else could they do at this point? They had no other options. 

“Mr. Cunningham!” A student suddenly rushed in, as if there was something urgent. 

Everyone present was suddenly on edge. After all, the Great Imperial Sect could not withstand 

any more shock. 

“What is it?” 

“A young man has arrived outside the gate, claiming to be Jaden Hault, an elder of Crimsor Sage Sect. He wishes to meet you. 

An elder of the Crimson Sage Sect? A young 

man?

That didn’t sound right. No elder of any sect would be young, let alone someone from Crimson Sage Sect, the third top sect in the Dragonia. Elders of such a powerful sect were all formidable and naturally older in age. How could there be a young elder? 

“Ridiculous! How dare you believe such an obvious lie? Throw him out!” one of the elders shouted, scolding the student for being useless. It was unthinkable that someone would take a con artist’s words seriously. 

The student was frightened, but he stood his ground. “But… But he has the identity token of Crimson Sage Sect. We couldn’t tell if it was fake.” 

Any martial artist knew the weight Crimson Sage Sect carried. Who would dare expel someone claiming to be from the sect? Offending them would lead to trouble on both ends. 

Suddenly, the deputy sect leader seemed to recall something. “Mr. Cunningham! Do you remember the martial arts tournament you attended with Xena eight years ago? 

“I remember you mentioned that a Supreme Elder from Crimson Sage Sect was present and caused a sensation. That elder had even talked to you.
