Chester and the Carter family were stunned.
A Soul-devouring Bloodworm?
At the same time, Elder Fire and the Hidden Hero Sect members were filled with righteous indignation and began to curse.
"Skylar is such a despicable man!"
"He not only killed our former Sect Master but also hurt our current Sect Master."
"He's a scum!"
Elder Fire was even more furious than the rest. He said to Veron, "In that case, there is nothing to be afraid of. The whole Hidden Hero Sect will fight Skylar. Even if we all die in the battle, we can't let him go."
The other people around him nodded in agreement.
Veron's delicate face was full of hesitation as she bit her lips. "Elder Fire, don't be impulsive. I'm not afraid of death at this point. I wish I could rip off Skylar's tendons and skin him alive, but I can't take the risk with the whole Hidden Hero Sect."
Veron looked at the people standing in front of her and said slowly, "I came here to tell the truth and to give the Carter family and Darryl justice."
"Master Wilson, Sect Master Dax, please forgive me for offending you in the past."
After the last sentence, Veron bowed toward the crowd. Her beautiful face was full of remorse.
Elder Fire was very embarrassed seeing that scene, but he quickly reacted and bowed to Chester and the Carter family with Elder Wind.
Even though Skylar stirred the pot, the Hidden Hero Sect did bring a lot of trouble to the Carter family. An apology was still needed.
"You're forgiven!"
Chester smiled and said, "Since the truth is out, we should let bygones be bygones."
Veron smiled and said, "Thank you for your forgiveness, Master Wilson!"
Elder Fire asked, "Sect Master, what are you going to do next?"
Elder Fire looked at Veron with deep sympathy in his eyes. He had watched her grow up, and at that moment, she was the Sect Master. She was in her prime, but she was poisoned by the Soul-devouring Bloodworm.
It was so unfair.
