Chapter 388: Despicable

“But first, I’ll have to reveal some important details for those who still don’t know.”

The Sanctuary Master looked towards a door, located right behind the platform and said: “Bring them out!”

Pah!

The door quickly opened, revealing six different figures. Four of them were female servants that worked for the Sanctuary Master. They were using their Mana Perception Realm cultivation level, to suppress the other two people, even though it was totally unnecessary to do so.

One of those two, was a dirty man that had his entire face covered with cloth. His body seemed to be devoid of any life, devoid of any movement, even though he was still alive. While observing his state and his outfit, it didn’t let any doubts that he was a prisoner. The question that surge inside everyone’s mid was actually, why were they bringing a prisoner to that place?

As that dirty prisoner was being dragged towards the platform, almost everyone calmly observed him, while trying to figure out what or who he really was. However, three different people were not able to remain as calm as the others.

Grand Elder Chuanli and his wife Dongmei, felt their hearts suddenly accelerating. There was no way they could identify that person, before the Sanctuary Master decided on taking off the cloth that was blocking his face, but somehow, they felt something was off. A deep sense of anxiety took over them and their bodies started to act as if they were in a crisis, trembling and producing excessive sweat.

.....

However, the both of them chose to believe against the odds, believe it was a person that was not related to them.

The other individual that couldn’t maintain her catatonic calmness anymore, was Meiyi. Each time she saw or recalled what was the state her father was in; she couldn’t help but feel despair and right now, she was just a few meters away from him, yet she wasn’t even able to move or talk.

Xiaosheng and another lady were holding her on each side, so they were able to directly feel her body shaking, despite the fact that they were restricting her with their Mana. Both of them were mere servants and could only obey the Sanctuary Master’s orders, even though they were unwilling to do it. They started feeling those complicated emotions, after absorbing part of Meiyi’s sadness and despair for themselves.

They brought Meiyi to the platform, where everyone was able to take a good look on her youthful, yet scared face.

While people were trying to process what was really happening and what that cute girl had to do with everything, the Sanctuary Master pulled everyone’s attention towards him.

“Our Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary youths, had been secluding themselves and sticking to this territory for way too long, locked in this territory by an iron rule; a rule set by the Illusive Ethereal Goddess herself. However, it is not something she really desired to do. But unfortunately, she had to set up that rule, so we could avoid an omen; a very dark and fear inducing omen...”

The Sanctuary Master could observe from his point of view, the countenance of the Elders changing. Apart from the oldest ones, what constituted only less than ten percent of the total of Elders, every single one of the cultivators present in that room, had a genuine curiosity about why they were locked up inside their sanctuary.

Taking advantage of the situation he had created, the Sanctuary Master continued: “But don’t worry, that rule is about to fall apart, since the omen referred as the Crimson Annihilation, had been avoided!”

Most of the people present there, didn’t really know what the Crimson Annihilation meant. But just hearing about the primordial rule falling apart, had changed their indignant and seeking-justice feelings, to happiness and hope.

His show had just begun and the Sanctuary Master had already converted ninety percent of the audience to his favor.

Grand Elder Chuanli clenched his fists till his skin went pale. He didn’t even have the chance to say anything, but he was already feeling that his appeal, was going to be a lost cause.

Suddenly, he summoned all the courage he could gather, even draining courage from his wife and stood up. His mouth opened, as he shouted: “What about the ones we lost while battling with the Glazed Lake? They won’t be able to enjoy the outside world anymore! They had lost their lives in vain! Is that fair?”

The excitement building up in everyone’s hearts suddenly died down. Chuanli had poured a bucket of cold water over their heads, making them remember the unjust fate of those poor disciples, who died like a cannon fodder.

However, even though that statement was true and it exposed the Sanctuary Master’s dirty doings and flaws on his intentions, his countenance didn’t change. He looked like someone who had already won and was just enjoying the meaningless struggles his opponents were putting.

“Hehehe... Fairness... If we talk about fairness, you’re not being fair while blaming me for what had happened. The real culprits behind that unfair outcome, is none other than those two.” The Sanctuary Master pointed towards the platform and everyone turned to look at Meiyi and the mysterious prisoner.

“Let me tell you the truth. That girl is the motive for the dark omen, an error that should not have ever happened; the result of a leakage on our bloodline! You should blame her and that man, since they are the ones responsible for the deaths of our people!” 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮

The Sanctuary Master swiftly turned the tides, shifting the blame over to the people on the elevated platform.

To further reinforce his argument, the Sanctuary Master was ready to start the “real show”, where his despicable plans were really going to play out.

“But Grand Elder Chuanli, I bet you’re curious to know who was the one bold enough to leak our sacred bloodline. No... I’m certain that not only you, but everyone wants to see who is the real identity of that daring man! Don’t worry, I will make sure to reveal it soon and bring justice to our fallen comrades! But first, I’ll use a technique to prove those two are related by blood.”
