Slightly Too Late

Meanwhile, Levi was searching high and low for the spiritual ley lines of the two deviant clans.

He had no clue where they were. Therefore, the process felt like he was looking for a needle in ahaystack.

Though a refined man, Levi was panic-stricken.

Needless to say, the others were dead worried too.

As time passed, a bad premonition washed over him.

He had a gut feeling that the mysterious woman would soon achieve success in her devouring, and hehad to intervene before it was all too late.

Levi was so anxious that his right eye kept twitching, indicating a bad omen.

Luckily, the Ecclesiastic Order and the deviant clan were archenemies who knew each other well.

Although there were not any records about the deviant clan’s spiritual ley line in the ancient scriptures,the Holy Guild was able to track it down based on a general idea about it.

They quickly informed Levi of the good news.

“Mr. Garrison, we’ve managed to locate the Orthus’ spiritual ley line.”

Levi was delighted to hear that.novelbin

Immediately, he made his way to the location provided by the Holy Guild.

Upon arrival, he saw that the Orthus was surrounded by people from the Ecclesiastic Order.

In their midst, was the temporarily appointed Acting Minister, Nigel.

When he saw Levi, he hurriedly walked over to greet him politely. “Mr. Garrison, the spiritual ley line isfound in the valley right in front of us. I’ve had our men guarding each and every nearby exit. It’simpossible for that woman to escape if she’s inside.”

Levi furrowed his brows.

According to that mysterious woman’s caliber, she must have noticed the huge ruckus raised by theEcclesiastic Order. With her remaining passive, it could only come down to two possibilities.

First, the woman is fearless, so much so that she doesn’t think of everyone present as a threat, andthat includes me.

Second, she has long devoured the energy of the spiritual ley line, leaving an empty shell inside.

Levi assumed the latter.

Though he had not had any face-to-face interaction with Gloria, he could tell that she was a sensitiveand meticulous person.

It did not matter that she was confident about her combat prowess and capabilities, she would stillchoose to test the water before taking any action.

“Let’s enter the valley.”

Levi led the way, whereas the others followed suit behind him.

The Ecclesiastic Order did not barge in earlier because they were fearful of what the mysteriouswoman could do to them.

Now that Levi was watching over them, they marched forward with absolute confidence.

“There are some remains of energy in this place. It’s probably set up by the deviant clan in order tomislead the others about the exact location of the spiritual ley line,” Levi said in a low voice.

The members of the Ecclesiastic Order agreed in unison and instantly had their guard up to get readyfor any ambush.

Levi might seem very calm and composed. However, behind each quickened step, was greattrepidation.

After walking for half an hour, Levi stopped in his tracks and declared solemnly, “We’re too late.”

The surrounding had hardly any light. Yet, it did not affect their vision.

The meandering mountain extended all the way into the deep valleys. Within it, was where the spiritualley line existed.

One could only imagine the horrifying power and immense energy that was once found inside it.

Now, it was merely an empty shell with only pathetic remains of energy.

“We’re still one step behind…”

Nigel heaved a long sigh.

Despair was written all over their faces.

That mysterious woman had successfully devoured the Orthus’ spiritual ley line. I wonder how powerfulshe might be now. Perhaps Xylas was no longer her match?

The crowd shifted their gaze to Levi, knowing very clearly that Levi was their last strand of hope tokeep the Ecclesiastic Order protected.

“We must locate that mysterious woman before she completes the devouring process. Otherwise, theconsequences are not what you and I could bear,” Levi said in a deep voice.

Instantly, everyone’s heart sank because they were well aware that Levi was not exaggerating.

The incident where Xylas showed off his strengths at the base spoke volumes.
