Chapter 2702 In A Dilemma

Chapter 2702 In A Dilemma“No, I can't accept this,” Ebenez roared. “I can't accept this!”
novelbinEven if he could not accept it, he was powerless to change the outcome.
“Whether you can accept it or not, you're doomed,” Jared said, raising his sword, ready to strike down
Ebenez.
“Hold on, Jared!” Viola stopped him.
Jared turned to her and asked, “What's the matter?”
“That guy killed my father, so I must kill him myself,” Viola said, glaring at Ebenez.
Upon hearing that, Jared calmly sheathed the Dragonslayer Sword.
Ebenez let out a cold snort. “Viola Warwick, I may be injured, but there's no way you can defeat me!”
Although Viola had reached the Body Fusion Realm, there was still a significant gap between their
cultivation levels. It would be impossible for her to take him down.
“What if I join her?” Ghaylen stepped forward, standing beside Viola.
Without hesitation, they launched an attack on Ebenez.
After a fierce battle, Viola decapitated Ebenez with a single sword stroke. Seeing his lifeless body lying on the ground, Viola burst into tears.
“Father, I've finally avenged you...” Viola fell to her knees.
Witnessing that scene, the disciples of Emerald Cauldron Sect also knelt to pledge their loyalty to Viola.
Ghaylen was the only elder who survived the battle, and more than half of the disciples were either
dead or injured. Although Emerald Cauldron Sect suffered heavy losses, they successfully drove away
Hosen and eliminated Ebenez. Finally, Viola realized her dream of becoming the lord of the sect.
Viola slowly stood up and looked at Jared, knowing that she owed her victory to him.
Ghaylen, as well as Zebediah and others, also looked at Jared with gratitude.
At this moment, only Sigurd's face displayed a myriad of emotions. He had been Hosen's principal
disciple, but with Jared holding his bodily spirit in captivity, he had no option but to comply with Jared's
every order.
With Hosen gone, Ebenez dead, and Viola now the lord of the sect, Sigurd found himself uncertain of
his fate.
Jared glanced at Sigurd, understanding what was running through his mind. He smiled faintly and, with
a wave of his hand, instantly restored Sigurd's bodily spirit back into his body.
Sigurd looked at Jared in surprise. He had not expected Jared to be so generous and return him his
bodily spirit. At that moment, Viola also turned her gaze toward Sigurd and said, “Sigurd, I know you did not
participate in their wrongdoings. Since you helped us in eliminating the traitors, I now appoint you as an
elder of Emerald Cauldron Sect. Take over your master's position.”
Sigurd froze for a moment before dropping to his knees.
“Thank you, Ms. Viola.” Sigurd was thrilled.
Not only did Viola not blame him, but she even appointed him as an elder of the sect.
With his bodily spirit restored and now an elder of the sect, Sigurd could not help but contemplate how
he might have met a grim fate if he had continued down Hosen's path. He was deeply grateful to Jared
for giving him a chance to start anew.
Following that, Viola instructed her subordinates to clean up the scene and repair the buildings of
Emerald Cauldron Sect. Meanwhile, they relocated to Ghaylen's territory, where some relatively intact
houses could still provide a place for them to rest.
As the evening approached, fatigue weighed on everyone, and they retired to rest early.
However, Jared's room remained illuminated. He was still awake because he found himself in a
dilemma.
Jared knew he could now freely access the medicinal pool in Emerald Cauldron Sect and absorb its
spiritual energy to enhance his cultivation.
However, if he were to absorb the spiritual energy without restraint, the medicinal pool of EmeraldCauldron Sect would undoubtedly be depleted.
When Hosen was the sect leader, Jared had not considered the consequences of depleting the
medicinal pool.
However, now that Viola had become the lord of the sect, it would be rather embarrassing for him to
continue taking advantage of the medicinal pool.
After all, the disciples of Emerald Cauldron Sect would still have to rely on the spiritual energy in the
medicinal pool to experience breakthroughs in their cultivation.
