Chapter 3684 Disguised As Levi
Each of them had blood dripping from the corners of their mouths. It was clear they had all sustained rather severe internal injuries.
“All of you, listen up. If anyone dares to talk about this nonsense to Master before I complete my investigation into the matter, don’t blame me for killing that person. If Gloria is indeed the lord of the Glorian Order, I’ll atone for my sins with my life.”
Snorting coldly, he turned and left, eager to meet with Gloria. I swear I’m going to disprove all these rumors.
Azure Dragon and the others clenched their jaws angrily as they watched Floyd leave, but there was nothing they could do.
Floyd’s strength completely outstripped their expectations. In fact, it was at a level where he could take them all down easily.
Floyd tried contacting Gloria through various methods as soon as he left the base. However, he did not receive any response at first, which worried him to no end.
After about half an hour, she finally gave him detailed coordinates on where to meet, and the delighted Floyd immediately rushed to the location at top speed.
After hurrying all the way there, he was about to reach where Gloria was supposed to be when he sensed a sudden aura shift and heard the sounds of a fight.
Thinking that Gloria was getting attacked by an elite, he was so shocked that the color drained from his face at once. He increased his speed and dashed forward.
When he finally arrived at the location, he saw Gloria sprawled on the ground and a swiftly-departing figure.
However, from behind, the figure looked extremely familiar.
“Master?”
Floyd was utterly dumbfounded, and his first thought was that Phoenix and the others had relayed those rumors to Levi.
“Gloria! Are you okay?”
Rushing to her side, he saw that her face was deathly pale. Blood was also oozing from the corner of her mouth, and her aura was very weak. Clearly, she was gravely injured.
“I… I’m fine, Floyd. Why are you… here?” Gloria asked pitifully.
Ignoring her question, he demanded, “Was it Master who injured you?”
“No… How could it be him? It was probably an elite from the Glorian Order.”
She deliberately avoided looking him in the eye as she spoke, the upset expression on her face seemingly indicating that she could not tell the truth for one reason or another.
Floyd instantly became worried and said in a low voice, “Gloria, why are you still lying to me? That was clearly him. You’re my woman. Before we get to the bottom of things, even he’s not allowed to bully you.”
She let out a long sigh. Looking helpless, she said, “Don’t blame Master. Perhaps his misunderstanding of me runs too deep. The Ecclesiastic Order continues to release more information, clearly trying to drag my reputation through the mud. I’ve no idea how a nobody like me even attracted the Glorian Order’s attention. Is it just because our names are similar?”
As she spoke, she gradually sounded more wronged and angry.
Meanwhile, Floyd was seething with rage as a deep resentment toward Levi started building within him.
“Master, why do you only believe Phoenix and the others but are never willing to believe me? If Gloria was indeed the mysterious lord of the Glorian Order, would it have been that easy to injure her? You’re the one who acted unjust first, so don’t blame me for being disloyal!”
Seeing how angry he looked and the darkness in his eyes, Gloria could not help feeling secretly gleeful.
Well, it appears that the Demon Incantation has worked its magic. My plans have panned out perfectly.
In truth, that person from earlier who looked like Levi was actually Xylas in disguise.
Gloria had waited half an hour to contact Floyd because she had to time it correctly and ensure they acted the scene well.
“Don’t blame Master, Floyd. You’d be better off advancing your cultivation. When you’re stronger, more people will believe what you have to say,” Gloria urged, continuing to manipulate Floyd.
Although there were no longer any super-spiritual ley lines for Gloria to devour energy from, some small ley lines were more than sufficient for Floyd.
Wanting to increase his influence, Floyd began cultivating at a frenzied pace, boosting his capabilities rapidly.
