Chapter 3604 Bloodbath At West Pavilion
The other four hurriedly protested.
“Phoenix, don’t you think it’s inappropriate to tell Boss?”
“After all, we don’t have any conclusive evidence. If Gloria is wrongly accused, it will affect the relationship between Boss and Floyd.”
“Floyd is such an intense person. If he ends up despising Boss because of this, there will be endless trouble!”
“Let’s dig deeper into the Glorian Order. We can report to Boss once we have solid evidence.”
Phoenix carefully considered the words of her comrades.
It was a delicate situation. There was no room for mistakes.
It would be too late for regrets if any irreversible consequences were to happen due to them keeping silent.
Besides, they could just notify Levi about the existence of Gloria and the Glorian Order while not mentioning anything about whether she was the leader. It would be up to Levi himself to draw the connections.
However, as long as they revealed this matter, Floyd would take offense, no matter what Levi did next.
To be fair, Floyd had no other flaw aside from his unhealthy obsession with Gloria.
He was Levi’s favorite disciple and was an excellent assistant.
If their relationship were to sour, it would be very difficult to resolve.
“What a dilemma!”
Phoenix was deeply conflicted.
“Are you all right, Phoenix?” Azure Dragon asked in concern.
Phoenix wore an indecipherable expression.
“It’s fine. I’ve made a decision.”
Phoenix paused and continued, “Remember, this has nothing to do with any of you. It’s all on me. I’ll bear all the consequences.”
After Phoenix had turned and left, Azure Dragon and the others shared looks of confusion.
However, Phoenix’s vague statement slowly began to make sense.
She intends to inform Boss about the Glorian Order!
After an intense debate in her mind, Phoenix finally decided to report the matter to Levi.
There would be no turning back. Since Phoenix had made the decision, she alone would bear the consequences.
It did not take long for Phoenix to locate Levi.
“Boss, I—”
Levi interrupted her before she could complete her sentence. “Phoenix, I have more important matters to attend to now. Let’s talk later.”
Phoenix was caught off guard. When she finally came back to her senses, Levi had already walked away.
“Boss seems to be in such a hurry. I wonder what’s going on…”
Phoenix felt rather disappointed. She had rehearsed her speech in her head over and over. However, she had not even gotten the chance to speak.
She did not know that, at that moment, Levi’s head was filled with thoughts of the three super-spiritual ley lines.
He was thinking of ways to ensure the well-being of his loved ones.
Then, he would be able to relax and use the super-spiritual ley line without any worries.
Meanwhile, Gloria was also thinking of ways to improve her cultivation.
The limitations of her devouring annoyed her.
Although Gloria had chosen the Esoteric Guild, she did not want too many people to know of her decision.
In particular, Gloria suspected that Levi knew that she had reached her limit.
Thus, gaining control over the Esoteric Guild could only be done in secret.
The less people who knew, the better.
If Levi or the Ecclesiastic Order found out about her plan, they would surely cause trouble for her.
The Esoteric Guild was immensely powerful, so if one wanted to gain full control of it in secret, it required some time and effort to strategize a fool-proof plan.
It was not something that could be done quickly.
Gloria had also noticed that there were several new spies around the West Pavilion.
She knew that those spies had been sent by Levi’s men.
Floyd might not have outright told them that she was returning to the West Pavilion, but since they already had their suspicions about her, they would surely use the opportunity to investigate further.
Those insignificant insects are really bold. If it weren’t because I needed to hide for the time being, the lot of you would have been sent to the gates of hell.
“No, these people are nothing but trouble. Perhaps I should come up with an escape plan…”
Gloria’s lips lifted in a smirk. She already had a plan in mind.
“Let’s cause a diversion!”
Gloria’s eyes glazed over as her mind began spinning with ideas.
She murmured aloud, “For example, a bloodbath at the West Pavilion would certainly cause chaos. It would be easier for me to work while everyone’s distracted.”
