Meanwhile, at Violet Cloud Palace, Brad and Claus were sitting in the hall with Santiago and his wife. Hundreds of Waxing Crescent Castle disciples had surrounded the entire Violet Cloud Palace outside. At the moment, Brad had a purple robe on, and his aura continued to intensify, clearly overshadowing Santiago’s.
“Santiago, why isn’t your daughter here yet? As long as she marries my son, we will be a family. By then, you can join me to wait for the resurgence of spiritual energy together. Then, we’ll ascend to Ethereal Realm. How nice would that be,” Brad said to Santiago.
Santiago wore a grimace and responded somewhat sarcastically, “Brad, you’re the master of Waxing Crescent Castle. How can you be content with serving Evil Heart Sect as a lowly follower? Why would you want that?” “Hahaha.” Brad suddenly guffawed, completely unfazed by Santiago’s remark about him being a lowly follower.
“Let me tell you. I was already a member of Evil Heart Sect decades ago because I knew if we didn’t join Evil Heart Sect, we’d forever be trapped in this secret realm and have no hopes of ascending to the Ethereal Realm. Our goal of cultivating all our lives is to become immortal, isn’t it?
However, without the resurgence of spiritual energy, when can we attain immortality in this restrictive secret realm? But things are different now. Spiritual energy will recover soon. By then, this world will be ours, and becoming immortal can be achievable. effortlessly.” Brad attempted to talk some sense into Santiago.
Santiago grasped his chair with both hands. He was infuriated, listening to Brad’s speech. He couldn’t believe he had established such a good rapport with Brad, not knowing the latter had joined Evil Heart Sect decades ago.
Santiago gritted his teeth and was about to attack Brad, figuring Hailey should’ve escaped far away by then, so he no longer had anything to worry about.
However, Roanna gently tugged at Santiago and said to Brad with a smile, “Brad, why don’t we do this instead? We’ll preen Hailey and send her to Waxing Crescent Castle tomorrow. As for the matter of Violet Cloud Palace joining forces with you, I’ll have to persuade Santiago about it today. You’re also aware of how stubborn he can be, so please give us another day.”
Brad stared lecherously at Roanna’s elegant. demeanor. “Since you’ve spoken, I’ll grant you one more day. However, you can give up on the idea of escaping because this entire Gate of Thunder’s secret realm is already under my control. If you’re still obstinate tomorrow, you’ll leave me with no choice but to commit a massacre. Nevertheless, you don’t have to worry, Roanna, because I won’t kill you. I’ve long wanted to lay my hands on your voluptuous figure.”
Brad blatantly harassed Roanna in front of Santiago. Roanna could only smile along, knowing full well that she couldn’t provoke Brad at that moment. On the other hand, Santiago’s face flushed from anger. An urge to swallow Brad whole. overwhelmed him.
Following Brad’s departure, Santiago bellowed, “Why did you lower yourself to beg him? What’s the difference between clashing with him today and tomorrow? Are you really thinking about getting together with Brad?”
Slap! Roanna abruptly smacked Santiago across his face, rendering him silent instantaneously. Santiago was a henpecked man. He had only dared to snap at Roanna earlier because he was too overwrought.
“Hailey and Autumn couldn’t have gone far at this time. If we fall out with Brad now, do you think Hailey can leave this secret realm?” Roanna questioned Santiago wrathfully. Santiago lowered his head, not daring to make a sound. He realized his wife was trying to buy time so Hailey could get out of the secret. realm.
A hush descended over the hall as the entire Violet Cloud Palace was engulfed in panic. Right then, Hailey and Autumn arrived at Violet Cloud Palace with Jared and the others.
