Chapter 1549: Chapter 1549: The Protective Trevor Baillie
"Sect Leader, I understand your predicant—it’s simply because he is a ’three-star Saint Markings Master’... Sect Leader, rest assured, as long as he can prove that he had nothing to do with Abu Dunn’s death, I am willing to let go of my pride and apologize to him."
The elder said in a deep voice.
At this point, Remy Mitchell knew he could no longer veto the elder, and even if he wanted to, he couldn’t.
The elder’s determination was sothing he could not interfere with.
"Uncle Master Jinez, since you’ve made up your mind, I’ll accompany you on this trip."
Remy Mitchell said.
The elder said nothing more, allowing Remy Mitchell to follow him.
Soon, the two of them arrived together at Trevor Baillie’s residence.
When Trevor Baillie was inford that the Sect Leader had arrived, he wasn’t surprised... He was already aware of the rumors spreading outside.
But it had nothing to do with him, so he was not worried at all.
However, although he was not worried, his mood was sowhat heavy.
If that rumor was true, wouldn’t it also an that Abu Dunn once wanted to kill his junior brother?
He previously thought that only Evander Mullins wanted to kill his junior brother, and he had overlooked Abu Dunn, "Luckily, nothing happened to my junior brother... Otherwise, how would I face our master!"
Thinking of this, Trevor Baillie felt a lingering fear.
However, upon reaching the main hall, Trevor Baillie was quite surprised.
Because it wasn’t just Sect Leader Remy Mitchell who had co to his residence, but also a familiar face, one of the Saint Realm experts of the Moon Radiance Sect.
It was none other than Quinton Jinez, the senior elder of the Moon Radiance Sect.
"Greetings, Sect Leader, Elder Jinez."
Although Trevor Baillie was a three-star Saint Markings Master and had a special status in the Moon Radiance Sect, he dared not be arrogant in the face of Remy Mitchell and Quinton Jinez.
"Elder Baillie."
Remy Mitchell responded to Trevor Baillie with a smile.
Under normal circumstances, Quinton Jinez would also smile back at Trevor Baillie, but now he spoke directly and frankly: "Elder Baillie, I ca here today because of Abu Dunn."
"It’s said that Elder Jinez and Elder Dunn once had a ntor-disciple relationship, and although it’s unclear why Elder Dunn never formally apprenticed under Elder Jinez... in this situation, Elder Jinez’s concern for Elder Dunn is truly admirable."
Although shocked that Quinton Jinez had co for Abu Dunn’s matter, Trevor Baillie responded with a smile.
He had also heard about the relationship between Quinton Jinez and Abu Dunn.
He always wondered why Quinton Jinez didn’t take Abu Dunn as his disciple.
"Although I greatly trust Elder Baillie’s character, I still hope to get a clear answer from you on this matter... Is Abu Dunn’s death related to you?!"
Quinton Jinez stared intently at Trevor Baillie as if trying to detect any subtle changes in his expression.
"It has nothing to do with ."
Trevor Baillie maintained his smile but shook his head.
"Do you dare to take a Thunder Punishnt oath, swearing that Abu Dunn’s death has nothing to do with you?"
Quinton Jinez continued to ask.
Upon hearing this, Trevor Baillie’s smile completely froze, and he asked in a deep voice, "Does Elder Jinez not trust ?"
"It’s not a matter of distrust, just confirmation! Elder Baillie, if you are willing to take a Thunder Punishnt oath swearing that Abu Dunn’s death has nothing to do with you... I, Quinton Jinez, will bow and apologize to you!"
Quinton Jinez spoke again, firmly and shockingly.
Quinton Jinez’s words naturally shocked Trevor Baillie.
Would Quinton Jinez really bow and apologize to him for Abu Dunn?
Did he hear correctly?
For a mont, Trevor Baillie couldn’t help but glance at Sect Leader Remy Mitchell, who had been silent all along, seemingly wanting to find out from him why Quinton Jinez cared so much about Abu Dunn.
Unfortunately, although Remy Mitchell knew the "inside story," he couldn’t reveal it.
"Elder Baillie, the relationship between Elder Dunn and Elder Jinez was like that of a father and son."
Remy Mitchell could only say this.
"Like father and son?"
Upon hearing this, Trevor Baillie scoffed; if it were truly like father and son, why hadn’t Quinton Jinez taken Abu Dunn as a disciple back then?
"Elder Jinez, asking
to take a Thunder Punishnt oath is tantamount to questioning my character... My entire life, Trevor Baillie has never been one to lie! But since you insist I take a Thunder Punishnt oath, I shall comply."
Trevor Baillie looked at Quinton Jinez, speaking with a composed face.
After saying this, he proceeded to take a Thunder Punishnt oath in front of Quinton Jinez and Remy Mitchell.
The oath was that Abu Dunn’s death was not related to him, Trevor Baillie!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
...
Amidst nine thunderous roars, the Thunder Punishnt oath ca into effect, and no thunder descended from the sky, confirming that Trevor Baillie wasn’t lying.
For a mont, Remy Mitchell sighed in relief.
He was truly worried that this matter would be related to Trevor Baillie, which would put him in a difficult position.
Quinton Jinez was like a Guardian Deity to the Moon Radiance Sect.
Trevor Baillie was the only three-star Saint Markings Master of the Moon Radiance Sect.
Both of them are very important to the Moon Radiance Sect, and he does not want to lose either of them.
Now, at least, the outco is satisfactory.
"Elder Baillie, I apologize for my abruptness."
Quinton Jinez is indeed a man of his word. After Trevor Baillie made an oath under Thunder Punishnt, he truly bowed and apologized to him,
Though not entirely sincere, he at least lowered his proud head.
"Elder Jinez, if there’s nothing else, please forgive
for not seeing you off."
Trevor Baillie said indifferently, clearly indicating that he was dismissing him.
He considered himself a person with a good temper, but today’s actions by Quinton Jinez had nevertheless ignited his anger.
"Uncle Master Jinez, let’s go."
Remy Mitchell naturally empathized with Trevor Baillie’s mood and even tried to persuade Quinton Jinez to leave together.
"No rush."
However, Quinton Jinez shook his head and turned to Trevor Baillie, saying: "Elder Baillie, please call out your junior Wyatt Barnes."
"Elder Jinez, what do you an by this?"
Trevor Baillie’s expression changed dramatically, and he asked in a harsh tone.
"Elder Baillie, I believe that Abu Dunn’s death has nothing to do with you... However, I cannot confirm whether this matter relates to your junior Wyatt Barnes! So, please call your junior out and let
verify."
Quinton Jinez stated.
"What? Is Elder Jinez planning to make my junior take an oath under Thunder Punishnt, swearing that Elder Abu Dunn’s death is unrelated to him?"
Trevor Baillie mocked.
"Correct."
Quinton Jinez nodded as if it was a matter of course.
"Elder Jinez, I just took the oath under Thunder Punishnt not only because I respect you but also because I don’t want to put the Sect Leader in difficulty... Otherwise, with my temper, I would never have taken such an oath under Thunder Punishnt! To , it is an insult to my character!"
Trevor Baillie said with a cold face, words firm and resolute.
"Elder Baillie, I have already apologized to you."
Quinton Jinez said in a deep voice.
"Apologized?"
Trevor Baillie laughed, a brilliant smile on his face, "Elder Jinez, if that’s what you say, I want to ask... If I apologize to you after, would you be willing to take an oath under Thunder Punishnt according to my request?"
"Why not?"
Quinton Jinez said casually.
"Very well. Then please, Elder Jinez, take an oath under Thunder Punishnt, saying you’ve never engaged in an indecent act with your mother... How about it? Even though I trust Elder Jinez’s character, I still hope to verify it through the oath under Thunder Punishnt."
Trevor Baillie said in a cold tone, ignoring Quinton Jinez’s imdiately changed expression.
The words were undeniably venomous!
Even Remy Mitchell couldn’t help but change colors, True Energy surging throughout his body, fearing that Quinton Jinez might act against Trevor Baillie in wrath. He was ready to protect Trevor Baillie.
His heart was filled with bitterness and helplessness. How had he failed to notice the venomousness of Elder Baillie’s tongue earlier?
Even if Quinton Jinez dared take such an oath, it would be impossible to do so.
Because this would be a great insult to him!
Not only an insult to him but also to his mother!
"Trevor Baillie, it’s been years, and you’re the first to make
feel the urge to kill!"
Quinton Jinez coldly stared at Trevor Baillie, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.
If not for Remy Mitchell standing by with strength equal to his, or because today he was the first to insult Trevor Baillie’s integrity, he would have already acted.
"Elder Jinez, I just wanted to tell you that so oaths under Thunder Punishnt cannot be made simply because you haven’t done the deed."
Trevor Baillie said calmly, unafraid of Quinton Jinez.
After speaking, he didn’t wait for Quinton Jinez to respond and turned to Remy Mitchell, "Sect Leader, I’m sure you’ve already investigated my junior’s background and origin... Do you think he could have hard Elder Abu Dunn without my intervention?"
"My earlier oath under Thunder Punishnt has clearly stated that Elder Abu Dunn’s death is not only unrelated to
but also to my junior!"
Trevor Baillie said seriously, "Today, Elder Jinez has already insulted my character; I cannot allow him to insult my junior’s character again!"
"If Trevor Baillie cannot even protect his junior, then what dignity do I have to continue living in this world?"
Trevor Baillie beca very agitated as he spoke.
"Elder Baillie, calm your anger, this matter is also my fault for not clarifying to Uncle Master Jinez earlier."
Seeing Trevor Baillie so agitated, Remy Mitchell hurriedly said, simultaneously turning to Quinton Jinez: "Uncle Master Jinez, since Elder Baillie has sworn under Thunder Punishnt that Elder Abu Dunn’s death is unrelated to him, it must indeed be unrelated to his junior Wyatt Barnes."
"I’ve investigated his junior Wyatt Barnes before. He cos from Hill Mountain City, one of the eighteen cities under our Moon Radiance Sect... Furthermore, he is from the mortal continent and has no other background."
"Based on his strength alone, he could not have killed Elder Baillie... Given his background, it’s impossible for him to enlist the help of soone stronger than Elder Abu Dunn."
Remy Mitchell quickly finished his words, mainly to dispel Quinton Jinez’s doubts, truly worrying he’d clash again with Trevor Baillie.
After hearing Remy Mitchell’s words, Quinton Jinez’s expression eased sowhat, but his gaze toward Trevor Baillie was still filled with murder.
Trevor Baillie stared back without fear, as if unconcerned he might act.
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, Quinton Jinez transford into a gust of wind and left.
