Fane snorted, not thinking much about it. "I think he'd still be able to return. As long as all of us diehere, no one will be able to prove what he did. He'd naturally be able to go back safely and mighteven receive a bountiful reward."
The others visibly soured at this. Even though it was hard for them to criticize the situation, withGriffin's status as well as the others from the Dual Sovereign Pavilion present, they still abhorredGriffin's actions silently.
Even scumbags would detest those who only knew how to suck up to others when challengesarose.
Isaiah gritted his teeth as he said, "He's gone too far. What he's done before is one thing, but withwhat he did this time-"
"That's enough," interjected Fane as he raised his hand, "it's not worth us wasting time talking abouthim at this point."
Fane then slowly stood up and turned to look at Graham. "Do you have any way of communicatingwith the rest?
"With them gathering up their forces against us, our best course of action is to gather every last oneof our manpower."
Graham nodded grimly, hurriedly taking out the sound
-transfer array and contacting everyone else. The Dual Sovereign Pavilion also had a way ofsharing its location, but compared to the sound transfer array, it was far simpler.
Nonetheless, it was still quite useful. After quickly contacting everyone in 15 minutes, they hadnotified everyone they could.
After about two hours, all the surviving northern clan disciples had been gathered. There were eventhose who had forced themselves to come over, despite varying injuries.
After they did a headcount, they noticed that there were only 25 of them left. When they entered theHidden Place for Resources, the northern clan had brought in a total of 90 disciples. The losseswere already more than two-thirds.
It was a massive loss. Furthermore, it was not guaranteed that all 25 of them would make it outalive. The situation was already in an incredibly serious state.
After everyone had gathered, the unsettling feeling had been somewhat quelled. Graham was busyconsoling the other disciples, while Fane had picked a secluded spot and brought Nelson over aswell.
He sat down next to Nelson and tended to Nelson's wounds, not saying a single word.
Nelson looked at Fane helplessly. "Tell me: will we survive?"
As he said that, he had an aura of despair and hopelessness about him. Fane could understandhow he felt.
After stabilizing the injuries, Fane told Nelson about Riv's death. Nelson and Riv had been quiteclose, and when Nelson finally registered the news of his demise, his morale plunged into an all-new low.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Fane shook his head. "There's no point thinking about all this now; you better focus on recovering."
At that moment, Graham's voice could be heard from a distance, "Come, Fane. Let's discuss ournext course of action."
Fane sighed in exasperation. In truth, he did not want to discuss anything with Graham. He keptfeeling like even though the guy seemed like a perfect gentleman on the surface, he was, in truth,not that righteous.
Unfortunately, at that moment, they were forced to work together, and staying as a group was themost sound choice. With that in mind, he was forced to walk toward Graham.
Graham anxiously said, "Fane, what do you think his goal is?"
Fane let out a small chuckle. "That's not hard to guess."
