Chapter 3511
Lion Archon roared in fury, his aura bursting forth as he prepared to strike at any moment. Tension flared between the two sides, and they were on the verge of coming to blows.
“Lion Archon, please don’t act impulsively!”
Thousand-Faced Demon Archon remained rational. He knew that engaging in a fight would put them at a disadvantage. If things went wrong, all four of them might meet their end right there.
Thus, he stopped Lion Archon from acting impulsively.
“Mr. Delacroix, let’s calmly discuss this. We will go with you…” Thousand-Faced Demon Archon hastily spoke.
Seeing the situation, Lauden turned to Heinrik and said, “Mr. Darkmore, since they are willing to come with us, there’s no need for violence.”
Heinrik snorted coldly before retracting his aura.
Although Lion Archon was unwilling, he had no choice. After all, he couldn’t defeat the people from the Five Great Sects. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Let’s go, Thousand-Faced Demon Archon,” Lauden said.
Thousand-Faced Demon Archon and his three companions had no choice but to follow Lauden to the headquarters of the Five Great Sects.
The headquarters of the Five Great Sects was located in a depression south of Demonia Mountain. To reach there from Demonia Mountain, one had to pass through Forlisle, which was under the control of the Summers family.
Originally, the area where the headquarters of the Five Great Sects was located was a barren wasteland.
Later on, the Five Great Sects established their sects here, and this place began to flourish.
The five sects were situated according to the positions of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams. They were not far from each other, providing mutual support.
Moreover, right in the center stood a tall tower built of stone. This was the central hub of the Five Great Sects, where the leaders of these sects would often convene for meetings.
Thousand-Faced Demon Archon and his companions were led into the towering building, where they were subsequently watched with intense scrutiny by the leaders of the Five Great Sects.
“Mr. Delacroix, we are now in your territory. Isn’t it time you told us why we were brought here?” Thousand-Faced Demon Archon asked Lauden in a displeased tone.
Before Lauden could speak, Heinrik interjected, “Stop pretending. Don’t you know why you were brought here? Aren’t you aware of what you’ve done on the Celestial Battlefield?”
Heinrik’s words left Thousand-Faced Demon Archon and his companions confused.
“Mr. Darkmore, what exactly did we do in the Celestial Battlefield?” Thousand-Faced Demon Archon asked in confusion.
“Just keep pretending! I want to see how long you can keep up this charade,” Heinrik scoffed coldly.
“Darkmore, if you have something to say, just say it. If not, just kill us. You have the numbers and the power, so we admit defeat. However, if you cannot provide a reason and choose to arbitrarily humiliate us, believe it or not, we will fight with all our might and cause a beast outbreak. This will ensure our mutual destruction!” Lion Archon thundered while glaring at Heinrik.
When Heinrik saw the defiant look on Lion Archon’s face, he was about to speak but was stopped by Lauden, who said, “Thousand-Faced Demon Archon, you are familiar with the Five Elites of our sects, aren’t you?”
“Of course I know them! The Five Elites were chosen by your five sects as the most promising disciples. How could I not know them!” Thousand-Faced Demon Archon answered.
“Good. Since you are aware of them, it’s easier to explain. The Five Elites entered the Celestial Battlefield and met their end there,” Lauden said.
Furrowing his brow, Thousand-Faced Demon Archon questioned, “What do their deaths have to do with us? Are you suspecting that we killed the Five Elites?”
“It’s not a suspicion; it’s a certainty. You helped Jared Chance murder them. Jared alone couldn’t possibly have been a match for our Five Elites. Therefore, it must have been some of you among the three kings and four archons who aided him,” Heinrik growled.
“Darkmore, you’re making baseless accusations. What evidence do you have to claim that we assisted Jared in killing your Five Elites?” Lion Archon retorted.
This matter was gravely serious, so it was crucial to get to the bottom of it. Lion Archon was also aware of the status the Five Elites held within the Five Great Sects.
