Chapter 4081
“The Divine Flame Seal is in Jared’s hands and has accepted him as its master. Does this mean Jared is now the sect leader?” Juliet asked.
“Jared was never a disciple of the Violet Flame Sect, and the Divine Flame Seal shouldn’t have ended up in his hands. As disciples of the Violet Flame Sect, it’s our duty to ensure that the Divine Flame Seal doesn’t fall into outsiders’ hands.”
Harlan began to incite the disciples of the Violet Flame Sect.
The disciples viewed the Divine Flame Seal with utmost significance. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be mandatory for the sect leader to be acknowledged by the Divine Flame Seal.
Since Jared’s identity had been revealed, it was clear he wasn’t a disciple of the Violet Flame Sect. Therefore, it was inappropriate for him to possess the Divine Flame Seal. Even if he was its designated master, Jared shouldn’t be allowed to take the Divine Flame Seal away.
Harlan was adamant about that particular point, hence his determination to oppose it at all costs. If he could regain the Divine Flame Seal, he would’ve succeeded.
“Who said Jared isn’t a disciple of the Violet Flame Sect?” Gael retorted.
“He’s not, of course, we all know what kind of person Mr. Barclay is. He must have taken Jared’s bribe to accept him. Moreover, given Mr. Barclay’s limited skills, there’s no way he’s Jared’s master,” Harlan exclaimed.
“Indeed, Mr. Barclay isn’t Jared’s master, but I can certainly become Jared’s father-in-law. Jared already has intimate contact with my daughter, making him my son-in-law. His status is even more significant than that of a disciple of the Violet Flame Sect, so why can’t he possess the Divine Flame Seal?” Gael huffed coldly.
Jared was somewhat taken aback at Gael’s words. When did I have intimate contact with Juliet? I just saw her bathing! That’s it! The Ethereal Realm is so open-minded. Don’t tell me we have to get married just because we saw each other bathing.
Unbeknownst to Jared, he had unexpectedly become Gael’s son-in-law.
Juliet’s face turned red when she heard her father reveal something so private in public. However, it was clear that she was quite delighted.
The other disciples of the Violet Flame Sect were all envious, jealous, and resentful of Jared
After all, Juliet was considered a goddess by many of the male disciples. A mere glance from her was enough to send shivers down their spines.
Yet, Jared had intimate contact with their goddess!
Just thinking about it made them green with envy.
“Jared, when did you have intimate contact with Juliet?”
Judd was quite puzzled. He had been with Jared all the time but hadn’t noticed Jared having the opportunity to do so.
Jared could only respond with a resigned smile without answering Judd. Harlan was taken aback at Gael’s declaration. He hadn’t expected Jared to actually be with Juliet.
Reflecting back, his son had merely flirted a little with Juliet, and yet he was expelled from the Violet Flame Sect.
However, Jared was fine despite having slept with Juliet.
“Hmph, that’s just your side of the story. Regardless, the Divine Flame Seal absolutely can’t be in Jared’s possession.”
After Harlan finished speaking, he lunged at Jared, attempting to snatch the Divine Flame Seal from Jared’s hand.
He wanted to snatch the Divine Flame Seal back.
“You’re overestimate yourself!” Jared scorned at Harlan.
An overwhelming flame aura exploded from the Divine Flame Seal, crashing down upon Harlan with great force.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
A jolt shot through Harlan’s body, feeling as if he was being crushed under immense pressure, and in an instant, he found himself sprawled on the ground.
The aura was so overpowering that Harlan couldn’t muster the strength to rise.
Harlan, an Ultimate Realm cultivator, was sprawled out like a dead bug.
Harlan struggled desperately, but the more he fought, the harder it became to breathe. In the end, Harlan ceased struggling. Despite the resentment in his eyes, he was utterly powerless.
Gael looked at Harlan and sighed lightly.
“Harlan, you’ve been a part of the Violet Flame Sect for many years, and your son has passed away. Today, I won’t take your life, but you’re hereby banished from the Violet Flame Sect, never to set foot within its boundaries again!”
As soon as Gael finished speaking, Jared withdrew his flame aura.
