After a few seconds, Forsythe and the others were far away when the blue-colored poisonous fog dispersed and vanished.
Sect Master Endless bore a solemn expression on his face, speechless and enraged. 'That man had murdered many of our disciples, and I had failed to apprehend him. What will others think of us if word gets out?'
Meanwhile, he was perplexed as well. Shaolin Sect had been going about its business for over a thousand years. They never participated in, interfered with, or offended the other sects. Why would someone suddenly appear looking for trouble?
"Master!" A disciple discovered something just as Sect Master Endless was thinking. He strode over and took the jade slip that Forsythe had left in the bush. "Something is going on here. I believe they dropped it by accident while fleeing."
Then he passed the jade slip over. Sect Master Endless quickly took the jade slip to have a look, and he was stunned. "This belong to Elysium Gate?"
The jade slip was made of high-quality, rare white jade and had a smooth texture all over. The front had a dragon pattern engraved on it, and the back had the words Elysium Gate engraved on it. Nobody knew about the jade slip except for Sect Master Endless.
When Darryl founded the Elysium Gate, he also named the Four Warlords and the Ten Heaven Masters. He made a jade slip for each of them to signify their status. When the New World tried to conquer them, all the sects cooperated in fighting the war. In the end, they won. All of them had dinner together to celebrate the victory. Then Sect Master Endless saw the jade slip from the Elysium Gate's Ten Heaven Masters. Even though he only saw it once, it was unforgettable.
The sect burst into an uproar. Everyone was astonished.
"An emblem from Elysium Gate?"
"So, that masked guy is one of the Ten Heaven Masters from Elysium Gate? Why do they attack us?"
"Yeah…we don't have any conflict with them."
When everyone was puzzled, a disciple suddenly thought of something. He said, "I heard a rumor in the world of cultivators. The current sect master, Ambrose, is in a relationship with the leader of the pirate organization. They have a child together. Because of that, the princess from the Sea Mackie Clan broke up with him, and they went their separate ways. If that's true, then the Elysium Gate and the pirate organization may have conspired to go after other sects."
