Chapter 2501 Mission

Chapter 2501 MissionSeeing the elderly man, everyone was shocked, completely unprepared to discover that Tanner, the
leader of the formidable Evil Heart Sect, possessed a benevolent and gentle countenance.
Even Malphas, who had faithfully followed Tanner for years, was caught off guard, his eyes widening as
he beheld Tanner's face for the first time.
“Mr. Sanders, w-what is going on?”
Jared could barely hide his shock. It looks like Mr. Sanders knows Lord Tanner of the Evil Heart Sect.
He could even call out his name. Mr. Sanders also mentioned that the Spiritual Energy Restoration
Formation is nothing but a scam. What is going on?
“Don't you understand? Is it not clear by now who set up the Spiritual Energy Restoration Formation?”
Arthur asked.
“Divine Quest Sect set it up,” came Jared's answer.
“Divine Quest Sect may have established the formation, but isn't it peculiar that Lord Tanner of Evil
Heart Sect possesses the ability to activate it?” Arthur queried.
Jared was thrown into confusion, finding his brain muddled.
Soon, he seemed to realize something as he gazed at Rudy in shock. “I-Is he the sect leader of Divine
Quest Sect?”
He recalled how he used the Wordless Tome to witness the events within the secret realm of DivineQuest Sect.
Initially, the sect had appeared tranquil and undisturbed. However, in the blink of an eye, the people
vanished, replaced by an eerie congregation of stone statues, alongside the supposed Spiritual Energy
Restoration Formation.
Instead of answering Jared's question, Arthur turned to Rudy. “Is it worth it to sacrifice everyone in the
sect to set up this formation and scheme for years in Evil Heart Sect?”
“Of course. You don't understand, but this is my mission,” Rudy replied.
“Mission?” Arthur frowned as a scowl crept up his face. “Did you seriously sacrifice that many people
for your mission to save someone who deserved to die? Do you know how many people you've killed?”
Arthur glanced at the dead bodies on the ground, courtesy of Rudy.
“Cease your attempts to sway my decision. I will not waver,” Rudy declared resolutely. “Certain matters
lack definitive truths, and there are forces that cannot be halted indefinitely!”
Following his proclamation, the radiant sunshine faded, giving way to an ominous darkness.
novelbinFrom within the abyss, a sinister black mist materialized, coalescing into an enormous face. Its piercing
eyes glowed with an otherworldly brilliance.
As the ominous face materialized, an overwhelming sense of foreboding enveloped everyone present.
The face's mouth widened, giving passage to a bronze coffin that soared forth. Upon the arrival of thecoffin, the motionless stone statues scattered across the ground began to quiver.
Eight radiant glows of various hues burst forth from the statues, converging in mid-air and enveloping
the bronze coffin.
The kaleidoscope of colors blanketed the metallic casket, suspending it weightlessly in the atmosphere.
The eight stone statues slowly disappeared as Josephine and the rest came tumbling out of the
statues.
“Josephine!”
Jared hurriedly approached Josephine and the others; his concern etched across his face as he
carefully assessed their condition.
Though their auras appeared feeble, indicating their depleted strength, he was relieved to find no
immediate danger befalling them.
“Mr. Sanders, what is going on?” Jared was utterly baffled.
He wasn't the only one, for the others at the scene were equally perplexed, particularly those from Evil
Heart Sect, such as Quindon and his comrades.
They had blindly followed Tanner, believing him to be their esteemed leader solely for the sake of the
Spiritual Energy Restoration Formation.
Little did they know that Tanner was none other than Rudy, the sect leader of Divine Quest Sect. This
revelation left them feeling betrayed and deceived. Malphas, who had closely interacted with Tanner, felt a profound sense of realization as the truth finally
dawned upon him. He recognized that he had been naively trusting Tanner's words, unaware of the lies
woven by the enigmatic figure.
