There was a sickening crunch as the Sage Lake Sect apprentice's hand started to ice up, his skin soon freezing into a driedblackness.

It was a sight of sheer horror, and the other Sage Lake Sect apprentices promptly backed away in fear.

"Urgh." Dahok groaned as he stirred, pushing himself up to his seat in the shrine.

"Ingrate!!!" he finally snapped after mumbling the word repeatedly before coughing another mouthful of black blood.This time, everyone stayed well away, having learned their lesson.

Dahok wheezed even as the black blood iced up on the floor, finally able to speak again.

"Gol" he bellowed. "Take down that bastard Maron and bring him to me!"

Quinn and Frank traded glances, and both strode up.

"No, absolutely not!" Frank barked, holding up a hand.

"What. Why?" Dahok wheezed through shallow breaths but forced a smile nonetheless. "| haven't met you, sir, but I'm gratefulthat you saved my life. However, | shall have that treacherous boy. Today."

“Are you sure the elders of your sect still serve you?" Frank asked quietly.

Dahok froze in silence, though he turned to Quinn after a while. "Quinn, your phone please. Call Jorg Zayas and have him return.And your father too. We need him back right now."

Quinn shook her head. "Sir. My father is dead.""Bocek's dead?!" Dahok's eyes widened in shock. "Was it that bastard Maron.?""No." Quinn sighed miserably. "It was the Salazars."

Dahok hacked violently for a while, his eyes flashing viciously when he looked up again. "We shall make the Salazars pay whenwe're done here. Go—call Jorg Zayas right now."

Not quite familiar with Jorg, Frank glanced at Quinn quizzically while she borrowed a phone from one of the Sage Lake Sectapprentices.

"Jorg Zayas is the leader of our sect's cutthroat guild," she explained. "Don't worry—the sect shall serve the chief's will until theend."novelbin

"The cutthroat guild?" Frank's heart skipped a beat and suddenly grabbed Quinn's wrist."W-What?" Quinn looked up in confusion.

Frank did not answer. Instead, heturned toward Dahok and saidsolemnly, "Master Ocean, your sonhad the cutthroat guild hold myfriends hostage and had been forcingme to do his bidding. Could youspeak with them personally and askthem to ensure my friends’ safety?"The content is on noveldrama.org!Read the latest chapter there!

Seeing that Dahok was hesitant,Frank nodded to assure him. "As longas the cutthroat guild ensures theirsafety, I'll stop the coup plaguingyour sect. | can assure you that youwon't be disappointed!" The contentis on noveldrama.org! Read the latestchapter there!

Despite Frank's solemn request,Dahok was left in a dilemma becausehe needed the cutthroat guild toreturn and restore peace to his guild.The content is on noveldrama.org!Read the latest chapter there!

If he asked the cutthroat guild to defend Frank's friends instead, his only allies would be beyond reach.

And worst of all, he was now a defenseless cripple—he would lose to Maron when challenged!
