Chapter 2637Chapter 2637 A Fight To The Death
“What is there to investigate, Sigurd? If you favor Jared and refuse to have him detained, I'll make a
move myself. I'll personally speak to Hosen when he returns.”
As Ebenez spoke, his aura burst forth once again.
At that, a slight frown marred Sigurd's countenance. He hastily uttered, “Mr. Erdell, I checked the
warehouse earlier and found an Elementum Totum Pill missing. I assume it was consumed by your
eldest disciple? The warehouse is guarded by your men. Now that such an important high-level pill is
gone, does this count as embezzlement?”
He wanted to change the subject and turn everyone's attention to Ebenez taking a pill without
authorization.
“Indeed, I was the one who took the Elementum Totum Pill. What's the big deal about it? I'll inform your
master about it when he returns. But for now, we're discussing Jared's actions of beating his fellow
disciples and destroying residences. Let's not change the topic. Give the order to detain him
immediately, or I'll take matters into my own hands!” Ebenez asserted firmly.
The fact that Ebenez brazenly admitted to the matter was beyond Sigurd's expectations.
“It was your eldest disciple who initiated the violence against Mr. Samoll's disciples and destroyed their
houses, Mr. Erdell. If we're discussing violations of the rules, your eldest disciple shouldn't be exempt
from scrutiny either, right?” Sigurd drawled. “Fine! Detain him first!” Ebenez responded, and then he turned to Bilius and questioned, “Have you
realized your mistake now?”
“Yes, Master. I'm willing to accept the sect's punishment.” Bilius gave a dip of his head.
“So, will you seize Jared now?” Ebenez demanded, swinging his gaze to Sigurd.
Following that, Sigurd was wholly stumped. Unsure of what else to do, he could only look at Jared
helplessly.
All of them are aware that Ebenez would free Bilius shortly after the latter had been imprisoned in the
water dungeon. But when it came to Jared, no one would release him. Ghaylen had no power in the
inner court. Thus, nobody would care about Jared.
Anyhow, Jared himself would never allow himself to be taken captive. If that truly happened, Hosen
would definitely take revenge on him madly upon returning.
“It's just a fight between kids, Ebenez. Why are you mad for real? Wouldn't others then take you for a
petty man?”
At that precise moment, Ghaylen had finally rushed over after being informed of the matter.
He happened to see Ebenez making an attempt to seize Jared, so he hurriedly spoke up.
“This disciple of yours is a bit too arrogant, Ghaylen. He beat my disciples up and destroyed my
residence. Shouldn't he be taught a lesson?” Ebenez enunciated with a chilly expression on his face. “If so, Ebenez, should I teach your eldest disciple a lesson since he first went to my residence and did
those very same things? I reckon all this must be your eldest disciple's own actions, and he was not
acting on your orders?” Ghaylen retorted, regarding the man calmly.
Ebenez's lips parted, but he did not quite know what to say for a moment. Ultimately, they were in the
wrong as they were the ones who made the first move.
At that turn of events, Bilius suggested at the side, “Since the matter has come to this, Master, why
don't I have a duel with Jared at the arena? Whoever loses shall go on his knees to apologize and
prostrate himself before the winner. Then, this matter is considered over.”
“I have no objections.” Ebenez nodded before shifting his gaze to Ghaylen and asking, “What do you
think, Ghaylen?”
Ghaylen turned to Jared, unsure of how to respond to that when Bilius' current capabilities were that of
the Body Fusion Realm, significantly higher than Jared's cultivation level.
Meanwhile, Jared declared with a sneer, “I agree to a duel at the arena, but I want it to be a fight to the
death. The loser doesn't have to go on his knees and apologize. Isn't it better for him to forfeit his life?”
The instant his words rang out, shock inundated the crowd. Everyone swung their gazes at him in
surprise.
