Chapter 3843 Staying Alive
Levi ordered the apprentices from Bluesky Sect, who were familiar with the surroundings, to lead the way to track Floyd down.
They searched the stone forest that was deep within the woods. However, they could not locate Floyd.
After that, they went to a couple of places that Floyd frequented. However, the man was still nowhere to be found.
Floyd was a shrewd man. He had left the stone forest that very same night when he was escaping from Levi. Not only that, but he also anticipated that Levi would start to investigate those close to Gloria. After all, those people had all practiced the extreme devouring technique.
Floyd knew that his action of devouring many people’s powers at Yannopolis would surely grab Levi’s attention. He did not wish to let Levi see his disheveled state.
When he was on the run, Floyd had heard the news about Eclipse Academy as well.
The vice-chancellor, Yunus Lohse, and over a dozen of other elites at the academy had been killed. This had incited an uproar from the public, and even Eclipse had sent out a number of Paladins to investigate the matter.
The council members had even given out a stern order to track down the culprit behind the massacre and bring them back to the Eclipse headquarters so that the person would suffer retribution for his horrendous act.
Eclipse Academy is the face of Eclipse, and Yunus and the others have died in vain. This culprit is essentially slapping Eclipse across their faces. It is no wonder that they’re reacting in such a way.
The culprit could really be Master. The woman from Astre Lune Sect who is following him around, Empyrean Cheriette, and Astre Lune Sect tried to snatch the dragon ley line as well. Cheriette is one of the few who have survived.
Floyd had heard speculation of an elite fighter being the culprit behind the massacre of the members of Eclipse Academy, and he had paid no heed to it. However, after he pieced all the puzzles together, only Levi came to his mind.
He knew Levi well. The fact that Levi had dared to enter Kenfort was a surefire sign that he had attained insurmountable power.
Moreover, Levi was the only person who could eradicate so many elites from Eclipse Academy without causing a ruckus.
I cannot let Master see me like this, at least not before I seek revenge on Gloria.
After making up his mind, Floyd scurried deep into the woods.
He decided he would not devour anyone’s powers for the time being.
There was an abundance of spiritual energy in the deep woods. Even though the rate at which he could use them was comparatively much slower, it was a much safer choice.
Meanwhile, Levi’s attempts at tracking down Floyd had been unsuccessful despite having searched him for days.
“We can’t find him even with so many people on board. I believe he must have found a safe place and hidden there. We can stop looking for him and head over to the headquarters of Void Sect now,” Levi said.
As a matter of fact, Levi was more at ease that he did not find Floyd.
It meant that Floyd had given up on trying to level up his cultivation for the time being and was hiding from Levi.
Judging by the way Floyd had reacted when Levi hunted him down, Levi reckoned that Floyd’s capabilities were already on a whole other league altogether. Floyd might not be able to triumph over an elite fighter, but he would be more than capable of leaving unscathed from the fight if he was ever involved in one.
“Sure, Lord Garrison,” Cheriett said.
“Mr. Garrison, what about us?” Hansel choked out.
Bluesky Sect had suffered such a catastrophic defeat that even smaller sects nearby had been keeping a watchful eye so that they could seize the chance to eradicate Bluesky Sect for good.
Levi went silent for a moment before saying, “All of you should head to the headquarters of Astre Lune Sect. I will let Quirina know that you will seek sanctuary there. But keep in mind to heed the arrangements made. Otherwise, no one else will be able to save you guys.”
“All right. Thank you, Mr. Garrison. We will definitely follow all arrangements there,” Hansel said.
Hansel was unsure why Levi was so generous. Then again, he didn’t ask questions since staying alive was more important than anything else.
