Chapter 2681 Who Is There
Over at Ghaylen's base at Emerald Cauldron Sect, there had been no news about Jared even after twodays had passed since the medicinal pool closed, thus making it appear that Jared had most likely methis end.
Ghaylen had thought of having Viola and Jared marry and then used Jared's powers to help her takeover Emerald Cauldron Sect. Now that it was unclear whether Jared was dead or alive, he would needto reevaluate the situation again carefully.
“How many former disciples of my father's are left in Emerald Cauldron Sect?” Viola asked Ghaylen.
“Quite a number of them are left, but many years have passed. I'm just afraid they have succumbed tothe temptation of the four cardinal vices and are in league with Hosen,” Ghaylen replied with a frown.
Viola also furrowed her brows, looking troubled. After all, many would have no qualms aboutdisregarding comradeship where personal gains were concerned.
“If we approach Helius for help, will he support me?” she asked. If we can get his support, takingcontrol of the sect will be much easier. One word from him will leave Hosen so frightened that heprobably won't dare to utter any protest. As for the rest of the sect, they'll surely listen to Helius. Afterall, everyone reveres him as though he's a divine being.
Ghaylen shook his head. “Helius has not concerned himself with the sect's power struggle in a longtime. As long as no one invades the sect and poses a threat to its disciples' lives, he won't intervene.”
Viola fell into a contemplative silence after hearing his reply. Without Helius' support, she did not knowhow much chance she had of killing Hosen and reclaiming Emerald Cauldron Sect.
Before she realized it, her thoughts drifted to Jared. Although she had not known him for long, she hadalways felt a sense of security around him. If he were here, perhaps he'd have a plan.
Just as the pair were deep in thought, a silhouette suddenly flashed past the window.
“Who's there?” Ghaylen demanded loudly, startled. We can't let Viola's identity be exposed, and now,we've just discovered someone outside the window. If word of her identity gets out, it'll be impossiblefor her to escape from here, let alone seize power from Hosen. If Hosen finds out she's alive, he'll stopat nothing to kill her!
“No need to freak out, Ghaylen. It's me.” At that moment, Ebenez opened the door and walked in.

“No need to freok out, Ghoylen. It's me.” At thot moment, Ebenez opened the door ond wolked in.
“Ebenez?” Ghaylen looked flabbergasted.
Ebenez turned to Viola and gave a slight bow. “Greetings, Ms. Viola.”
“W-Why are you here?” She also looked shocked. After all, they were at Ghaylen's base, and Ebeneznever went there.
Ghaylen's aura was already starting to surge. He was ready to attack Ebenez at any moment. Viola'sidentity could not be revealed.
Ebenez was powerful, but Ghaylen had Viola, an elite in the Body Fusion Realm, on his side. With herpowers and Ghaylen's combined, they could very well be a match for Ebenez.
Sensing Ghaylen's mounting murderous intent, Ebenez hurriedly smiled and said, “That's unnecessary,Ghaylen. If I wanted to expose her identity, Hosen would've already known on the day the medicinalpool opened.”
As it turned out, Ebenez had already started being suspicious of Viola's identity the day the medicinalpool opened.
Although she had altered her appearance and voice, there were some auras one possessed that onehad no way of changing.
“Ebenez, what are you doing here?” Ghaylen asked coldly.
