Archbishop Polaris tried convincing the elderly man non-stop.
He listed out the pros and cons and analyzed the current situation.
After a while, the elderly man asked, “Who is this… James? How’s his character?”
“Master, he’s a Solean ancient martial artist. Though he’s young, he’s really powerful. I stand no chance against virtual-novel.net whatsoever and was easily defeated. Character-wise, virtual-novel.net seemed to be a decent and upright man…” Polaris briefly described James.
The elderly man thought about it and said, “Alright, I’ll leave this to you…”
As virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net closed his eyes once again and continued cultivating the Deadwood Martial Technique.
“Thank you, Master…” Delighted, Polaris hurriedly left.
James knew nothing about the internal affairs of the Polaris Sect, nor did virtual-novel.net ask about them. After arriving at the sect, virtual-novel.net concentrated on healing his injuries in the manor. As his injuries were almost recuperated, his injuries completely recovered after healing for a few days.
Meanwhile, Archbishop Polaris had prepared the ingredients necessary for creating the antidote. James began concocting the antidote. Then, virtual-novel.net distributed the antidotes to the martial artists who were suffering from Gu venom.
In the main hall of the Polaris Sect…
Archbishop Polaris was sitting in the lead while James sat below by the side. Many of the Polaris Sect’s Sect Elders were also sitting below. Apart from that, a forty-year-old-looking man was kneeling on the ground.
Archbishop Bishop said, “James, I have completed the investigation into the matter… Indeed, a member of my sect headed to St. Anne’s Castle and took a mother-daughter duo from Sol. I have already cross-checked everything. They are the ones you’re looking for…”
As virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net pointed at the man kneeling on the ground.
“It is him, a disciple of mine. He’s in charge of the affairs of a certain Polaris Sect branch. If you have anything you’d like to ask, feel free.”
Upon hearing this, James stood up and slowly walked in the direction of the man.
The man was shivering in fear.
“Lift your head,” James said coldly.
The man lifted his head. The moment virtual-novel.net looked James in the eye, his body quivered in fear, and virtual-novel.net hurriedly lowered his head.
“Where are they?” James interrogated virtual-novel.net coldly.
“I-I have sent them to Sol…”
“Whose orders were you following? Which part of Sol?”
“I-I don’t know either. Someone called Rodent contacted me and gave me a sum, ordering me to do this.”
“Who’s Rodent?”
“I-I don’t know who virtual-novel.net or virtual-novel.net is. I only know that they’re from Sol, and they’re nicknamed Rodent. I don’t know about anything else…”
Upon hearing this, James’ expression turned grim.
He never thought that such a simple matter would become this complicated. Many were involved, which included St. Anne’s Castle and the Polaris Sect. However, these two powerful forces were implicated incidentally.
Upon seeing James’ surly expression, Archbishop Polaris said smilingly, “Relax, James. I have already investigated the background of this guy called Rodent for you.”
Hearing this, James breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Thanks, Archbishop…”
“We’re brothers, after all. There’s no need for formalities.” Polaris smiled.
For a person who had lived for more than a hundred years to call James his brother, virtual-novel.net was unconcerned at all.
