The puppets turned to ashes under the intense heat of the flames, never to be restored again.
“How did you know the weakness of my puppets?”
Alef couldn't believe his eyes as he stared at Jared.
He had put a lot of effort into cultivating these puppets, and now they were all destroyed.
“What's so hard about that? I even know how you made these puppets now,” Jared replied with a cold smile. “So, it's hardly surprising that I know their weakness.”
“You're talking nonsense! Puppet Mastery Spell is passed down from generation to generation in my sect, so how could you possibly know anything about it? You've probably just stumbled upon the truth by accident! But you destroyed my puppets, so I won't let you go! Just wait and see!”
After Alef finished speaking, he leaped to one side, clearly trying to escape.
“Hmph, anyone who hurt people from my Deragon Sect can't just walk away like that!”
With a cold snort, Jared jumped into the air, too, reaching for Alef with his right hand.
With powerful suction, he grabbed Alef firmly and unyieldingly in his hand, and the latter couldn't break free.
“I think you've misunderstood me. I haven't killed anyone from your Deragon Sect. Yosef is the one who killed your people. If you want revenge, find him. I just came to help him.”
Alef began to plead for mercy after being caught by Jared.
Jared was taken aback. “Yosef?”
“Yes, Yosef is the abbot of this Kusch Monastery. I just came here to help around. I have no grievances or grudges against you, so please let me go!” Alef continued to plead.
Jared turned to Pascal and his son for confirmation. “Is he telling the truth?”
Feeling the sharpness in his eyes piercing through them, Pascal could only nod and say, “Yes!”
“See, there are no grudges between us. I haven't killed anyone from your Deragon Sect. Please let me go! Otherwise, if you kill me, my mentor won't spare you. We pass our skills from generation to generation, so if you kill me, you'll end the future of our Puppet Monastery!”
Alef even began to threaten Jared.
