Chapter 3753 Humiliation
“Don’t worry, Santino. I’m aware of the risks.” Instead of feeling any hesitation, Gloria was looking forward to meeting Primo.
He loves women? The Hedonistic Sword Technique? That makes him my perfect target. Without a doubt, my Charm Technique can finally be of use.
Holding that thought, she subconsciously curled her lips into a slight smile. The excited Gloria then followed Santino to where Primo lived.
After an hour’s walk, both of them arrived at a bamboo forest. Within it was a building made out of purple-colored bamboo. Due to the nourishment of the rich spiritual energy in the area, the bamboos growing in the forest were so thick that one could wrap one’s arms around them and barely touch one’s fingers.
“Primo is inside there. No matter what, be mindful of your words regardless of what you hear,” Santino reminded sternly.
The few of them responded in unison, “Understood!”
At that moment, everyone began to feel nervous.
Gloria, in particular, couldn’t hold back her excitement to meet the future sect leader of the Void Sect.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
When Santino knocked on the bamboo door, a crisp metallic sound was heard. Evidently, the door had been specially reinforced.
“Is that you, Santino? Come in quickly. I heard that you were injured.”
A magnetic voice rang out. Its devilish allure tempted anyone who heard it to feel intoxicated.
Just the sound of his voice alone was enough to disrupt one’s mental state.
He’s really powerful!
Gloria’s sense of anticipation intensified.
Just when everyone was letting their imagination run wild, the bamboo door gradually opened to reveal a figure standing at the door.
The man looked to be in his early thirties and was one hundred and ninety centimeters tall. He had a well-built figure and was extraordinarily handsome, just like a divine being.
The powerful aura he exuded caused the surroundings to be weighed down by tremendous pressure.
In fact, Gloria and her companions felt as if their bodies were about to be blown apart.
She had assumed that Primo would only be slightly stronger than Santino, so she was surprised to discover that they were on entirely different levels.
What power!
Gloria was awestruck.
The more she thought about it, the greater her urge to curry favor with Primo, for that was exactly what she desired.
Briefly stunned, Santino swiftly explained, “Primo, these people are from the mundane world.”
The amused Primo swept his gaze across their faces.
At the same time, they, too, observed his reaction.
As for Gloria, she simply lost herself while marveling at his strength.
“You seem pretty talented. If you have the time, I would be happy to give you some pointers.”
In the midst of letting her imagination run wild, Primo’s voice suddenly rang out from behind her.
“Thank you for your kind offer, Primo. I couldn’t ask for anything more.”
Gloria instinctively started to flatter him.
“Mm-hmm, you have great potential!”
Primo was captivated by Gloria’s beauty at first sight.
With Gloria knowing her way around men, she quickly got Primo to be enamored with her after a short exchange. “Good, good. I like her.”
“Santino, your trip to the mundane world wasn’t a waste at all to have found such a capable person. Other than myself, she’s indeed a cut above everyone else in the sect!”
Gloria’s flattery made Primo feel like he was on cloud nine.
Soon, she settled into the Void Sect with ease.
Even the other celibate Empyreans began to take an interest in her.
A few days later, news of Santino’s defeat had reached the ears of the vice sect leader, Geraint Earkenhait, who was infuriated by it.
Not only was his favorite disciple grievously injured by a cultivator from the mundane world, but the ancient sword he had personally handed down to Santino was also destroyed.
“This is a grave humiliation. Order Santino to go into seclusion to reflect upon his failure.”
Upon hearing the order, Santino lost his previous haughtiness and went gloomily into seclusion.
Initially, Gloria had assumed that Geraint would seek revenge on behalf of Santino. Contrary to her expectations, he ended up going into solitary training instead.
When she saw that he didn’t seem to care about Santino’s defeat and the death of a few Paladins, Gloria was filled with indignance.
