Chapter 1806: Chapter 1806: Betrayal by the Guardian
Including Ryatt Morgan, the House Master, a group of Sky-scraping Mansion’s high-ranking officials had rushed to this place upon hearing about Peace Adams’ secret rescue.
However, upon arrival, they found one person missing.
And it was precisely the person supposed to be guarding this place, watching over Peace Adams...the Heavenly Palace Master, Oliver Watson!
"House Master! House Master!"
Just as the underground chamber’s atmosphere grew tense, a hurried voice suddenly ca from outside.
"Tommy?"
Upon hearing this familiar voice, Edison Dunn and Atlas Dunn exchanged glances, seeing shock in each other’s eyes.
What was he doing here at this mont?
Soon, Tommy Dunn appeared before the Sky-scraping Mansion’s high-ranking officials, panting heavily.
"Tommy, what are you doing here? This isn’t where you should be!"
Atlas Dunn glared at Tommy Dunn and reprimanded him in a low voice.
On the previous occasion when he was on duty, Tommy’s presence here was not a problem, but today with the House Master and others present, and the atmosphere sowhat tense, he truly feared that his son’s arrival might anger the House Master.
"Tommy, be obedient and go back!"
This ti, Edison Dunn also spoke up.
"House Master!"
However, Tommy Dunn disregarded his grandfather and father, focusing his gaze on Ryatt Morgan, who was looking at him with a stern face, "Just now, I seed to see our Heavenly Palace Master, Oliver Watson, taking soone northward...a patrol elder and over a dozen patrol disciples were all injured by him."
Swish! Swish! Swish!
...
And as Tommy Dunn’s words fell, including Ryatt Morgan, all of the Sky-scraping Mansion’s high-ranking officials’ expressions changed drastically.
"Trust betrayed!"
In that mont, the phrase involuntarily surfaced in the minds of all the high-ranking officials.
Whoosh!
Like a gust of wind blowing through the underground chamber, Ryatt Morgan disappeared in front of everyone.
"Go!"
Subsequently, Protector Winty and Edison Dunn, the two Protectors of the Sky-scraping Mansion, followed in pursuit.
The rest of the Vice House Masters also followed suit.
As Atlas Dunn raised his hand, he brought Tommy Dunn along, asking while catching up, "Tommy, did you really see clearly? Oliver Watson took soone northward?"
"Father, I wouldn’t joke about such things...now, that patrol elder should also be heading this way."
Tommy Dunn said seriously, "Father, the person Oliver Watson took away...is it the Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion, ’Peace Adams’?"
"Yes."
A cold glint flashed in Atlas Dunn’s eyes, "I didn’t expect Oliver Watson to be so bold, daring to take Peace Adams...It seems he’s learned about so matters regarding that Devil Path technique from Peace Adams’ mouth! That Devil Path technique is very likely to be one of those heinous arts!"
In an instant, Atlas Dunn could piece this together.
This also left Tommy Dunn astounded, secretly wiping away a cold sweat.
On the way, led by House Master ’Ryatt Morgan’, a group of high-ranking mbers of Sky-scraping Mansion encountered a heavily injured elder of Sky-scraping Mansion heading northward.
This elder’s face was pale, clearly severely injured.
"House Master, Oliver Watson forcibly took Peace Adams away and injured us...This is the ’Jade Slip’ Oliver Watson asked
to pass on to you, House Master."
The Sky-scraping Mansion elder, upon seeing Ryatt Morgan, imdiately handed over the Jade Slip.
Ryatt Morgan received the Jade Slip with a stern face and injected his power into it.
He made the sound within the Jade Slip play out loud:
"House Master, the cultivation technique Peace Adams practiced is none other than the infamous ’Devouring Dark_Demon Art’ from many years ago in the Lower Domain...Such an appalling technique, even if obtained through soul-sear secret arts, will only gather dust in Sky-scraping Mansion!"
"Therefore, I have taken Peace Adams, because I need the ’Devouring Dark_Demon Art’! Only by cultivating the ’Devouring Dark_Demon Art’ can I wash away the sha brought upon
by ’Diffy Fenning’ from the Shadow Mountain Black Market!"
Oliver Watson’s voice reverberated at the right ti, "I originally thought that in this lifeti, I would never have the chance to take revenge against Diffy Fenning...The appearance of ’Devouring Dark_Demon Art’ gave
hope! After long deliberation, I finally decided to take Peace Adams and obtain the ’Devouring Dark_Demon Art’.
"House Master, you can rest assured, once I acquire the ’Devouring Dark_Demon Art’, I will find a way to deal with Peace Adams! After all, Peace Adams’ existence poses a significant threat to our Sky-scraping Mansion...From today onwards, I, Oliver Watson, hereby leave Sky-scraping Mansion; thereon, whatever I do will have no connection to Sky-scraping Mansion!"
"I hope that, for the sake of my past toil and contributions to Sky-scraping Mansion and the Heavenly Palace, you won’t trouble my disciples; they are innocent, and I owe them!"
At this point, Oliver Watson’s voice ceased.
’Devouring Dark_Demon Art’!
At this mont, aside from Tommy Dunn, everyone present was utterly shocked.
To them, the ’Devouring Dark_Demon Art’ was a legendary technique, with a cultivation process that was both monstrous and appalling.
In the past, the Demon Cultivator who practiced this demonic art also beca a public enemy of the nation, and the entire Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land could not tolerate him.
However, even in such a dire predicant, that Demon Cultivator, facing a group of top experts from the Lower Domain who besieged him, managed to kill several experts who were also at the peak of the Earth Saint Realm, solely relying on his own peak Earth Saint Realm cultivation!
As for the other experts who were killed, they were even more nurous and countless!
That battle could truly be called the ’Epic Battle’ of the Lower Domain!
Yet, even so, that Demon Cultivator who practiced the Devouring Dark_Demon Art was not killed; he escaped to the ’Upper Domain’ of the Martial Dao Sacred Land at the cost of severe injuries.
However, from that mont on, that Demon Cultivator beca a ’legend’ in the Lower Domain of the Martial Dao Sacred Land.
Of course, this legendary figure left only infamy for posterity, for he did not know how many young won he hard to practice the Devouring Dark_Demon Art at the ti.
One by one, living young won, their Essence Blood Energy was completely devoured by him, drained into mummies by him!
His cris had reached a point where both humans and deities were outraged!
Precisely because of the commotion that Demon Cultivator caused back then, the demonic cultivation art he practiced, the Devouring Dark_Demon Art, also beca known to all, and everyone at the ti regarded it as a monstrous threat.
Even after many years have passed, the reputation of this Devil Path cultivation thod, the Devouring Dark_Demon Art, has still been passed down.
The high-level mbers of the Mysterious Void Mansion have naturally also heard of this cultivation thod.
And it was precisely because of this that when they learned the cultivation thod practiced by Peace Adams was actually the Devouring Dark_Demon Art, they showed such an astonished expression.
"Foolish! Senior Brother Watson is foolish!"
Finally, it was Hall Master Lachlan Jinez of the Yellow Palace who first reacted, his face changing dramatically, "Even if he obtains the Devouring Dark_Demon Art, he will inevitably beco the public enemy of the entire Lower Domain, and even the entire Martial Dao Sacred Land in the future... Is it worth it just for a trivial conflict with that Vice Leader Diffy Fenning of the Shadow Mountain black market?"
"The conflict between Senior Brother Watson and Diffy Fenning, in Diffy Fenning’s eyes, even in our eyes, is just a small conflict... But if one puts themselves in his shoes, if I were Senior Brother Watson, faced with such humiliation from Diffy Fenning, I would definitely find it hard to live with even in death!"
The Palace Master of the Earth Palace said in a deep voice, "So, while Senior Brother Watson’s choice is surprising, it’s understandable."
"For a single Diffy Fenning, against the entire world... Is it really worth it?"
The Palace Master of the Mystic Palace sighed.
"House Master, Oliver Watson abducted Peace Adams and took the Devouring Dark_Demon Art; his cri is imnse. After capturing him, he should be executed!"
Protector Edison Dunn looked at Ryatt Morgan, a flash of cold light in his eyes as he said.
"Hall Master Watson announced his departure from the Mysterious Void Mansion, actually because he was worried that the news of him practicing the Devouring Dark_Demon Art would implicate the Mysterious Void Mansion... Although his approach is sowhat extre, it cannot be denied that even until the last mont, he was still thinking of the Mysterious Void Mansion. So, I believe that capturing Hall Master Watson and stopping him from practicing the Devouring Dark_Demon Art is sufficient, he does not deserve to die."
Another Protector, Winty Landon, expressed his opinion.
The two Protectors both spoke up, but their expressed opinions were completely different.
Just as Edison Dunn’s face darkened and he angrily glared at Winty Landon, wanting to say sothing, the high-level mbers of the Mysterious Void Mansion present voiced their opinions one after another:
"I support Protector Landon’s opinion!"
"I also support Protector Landon!"
"I support Protector Landon!"
...
Among the high-level mbers of the Mysterious Void Mansion present, nearly nine out of ten supported Winty Landon’s opinion, leaving Edison Dunn no choice but to swallow back the words on the tip of his tongue.
Though stifled, he was helpless.
Moreover, not only was Winty Landon’s strength not inferior to his, but his status in the Mysterious Void Mansion was also no lower than his. Just the scene of so many people supporting Winty Landon made it impossible for him to have the final say.
After all, he was only a Protector, not the House Master!
"I believe that if the cultivation thod Peace Adams practiced were not the Devouring Dark_Demon Art, but a relatively normal Devil Path art, Hall Master Watson would never have taken such reckless actions... Given the statent left by Hall Master Watson and his expressed stance, he can be spared from death! But though the death penalty can be waived, living punishnt is inevitable... The two Protectors, you both, should take action and bring Hall Master Watson back."
Under the gaze of everyone, Ryatt Morgan, the House Master of the Mysterious Void Mansion, also expressed his stance.
Though he did not explicitly state his agreent with Winty Landon’s opinion, his words undoubtedly aligned with Winty Landon’s views.
"Yes, House Master."
In the Mysterious Void Mansion, Ryatt Morgan was not only the sovereign of the mansion but also the foremost expert, even surpassing Protectors Winty Landon and Edison Dunn in strength.
Hence, facing his command, neither Winty Landon nor Edison Dunn dared to be negligent.
After responding, Winty Landon and Edison Dunn left imdiately, heading straight north.
"The events of today must not be spread to outsiders... Whoever violates this, spare none!"
After Winty Landon and Edison Dunn left, Ryatt Morgan’s gaze swept through those present, speaking in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Facing Ryatt Morgan’s command, the faces of everyone present turned serious as they nodded, for they also knew that if today’s events were leaked, it would only bring trouble to the Mysterious Void Mansion.
As people of the Mysterious Void Mansion, they naturally did not wish for the Mysterious Void Mansion to encounter trouble.
"With the old man from the Landon Family and my grandfather personally taking action... Can Hall Master Watson escape?"
Tommy Dunn, standing beside Atlas Dunn, looked towards the northern direction, secretly worried.
