Chapter 3396 The Head Of The Cetus
The fact that elites from everywhere tried to kill him only made Levi even surer that he was right about there being a mastermind behind it all.
He did not find it strange that the elites of the Ecclesiastic Order worked together to get him.
However, when Zarain-supporting Yartran, the Cetus, and all kinds of rogue cultivators and assassins tried to murder him one after another, he knew something was wrong.
Levi refused to believe it was all just a coincidence because the different parties could not have staged such an attack without someone coordinating the assault.
The cascade of attackers came at him like they had trained countless times together as a team.
However, that was not the case since Black Hawk told him that Yartran operated on their own and without consulting Shield.
If Yartran really wanted to seize the opportunity to kill Levi, they would have gone to Shield first because the organization knew him well.
Since Yartran did not do that, it was obvious that someone recruited them for the operation.
That alone was enough to convince Levi that a mysterious someone was working against him behind the scenes. It all makes sense now. That person must be the one who stole my God Crusher and exposed the location of our base to the Cetus. They must’ve learned that piece of information after capturing and questioning Sonja and the others. What exactly am I dealing with here? Whoever they are, they seem to be familiar with the Ecclesiastic Order, the Cetus, the outside world, and even me!
“They’re wrong if they think they can mess with me and get away with it!” Levi narrowed his eyes sternly as he vowed to get to the bottom of it. Now that the Ecclesiastic Order sees me as nothing but their enemy, I don’t think they’ll be of much help. As for Yartran, I might be able to work something out with them since we’re on friendly terms. I should arrange to go there myself.
“That’s enough discussion. If they want to come to us, let them. Just be extra careful and try not to go out too much,” reminded Levi, who was not afraid to take the Ecclesiastic Order head-on. What concerned him was their scheming and the safety of those around him.
After the public heard how Levi slaughtered the Top Ten and took the cornerstone divine tools for himself, they were enraged.
However, none dared to challenge someone so powerful. All they could do was fear the man.
Gloria, the one pulling the strings, smiled deviously when everything went according to her plan.
At that moment, leaders of the Cetus stood in a pavilion somewhere deep in the mountains, and standing before them was an elegant middle-aged man.
Slap! Slap! Slap!
The man gave the leaders each a hard smack on the face, but none dared to say a word of defiance.
If those of the Ecclesiastic Order were to see that scene, they would have been greatly surprised, for they were convinced that the Cetus was the strongest of the deviant clans.
They would want to know who it was that could disrespect the heads of the Cetus like that and still have the leaders submit like dogs.
“Did I or did I not tell you to leave Levi alone?” questioned the middle-aged man coldly.
Still, the leaders continued to keep their heads lowered in silence.
“Are you all deaf? Or do you actually believe that you’re powerful enough to take on Levi?” continued the man.
“We… We didn’t think he’d be that strong. Please forgive us, Master,” pleaded the leaders apologetically.
“Of course, he’s that strong! I’ve already told you that, haven’t I?”
“I want you lot to stay out of sight from now on. Nobody is to see you anywhere! Do you understand?” ordered the man.
The leaders all nodded in response, and that was the last time anyone saw them.
Looking into the distance, the middle-aged man sneered, “Anyhow, Levi must die!”
