"You-"
Everyone there had an ugly look on their faces when they heard Zephyr's warning. They looked at each other.
Zephyr was part of Elysium Gate! He held a very high position in the Elysium Gate
Sect; he was second only to the Sect Master!
There was complete silence for more than ten seconds.
The Wanderer’s Sect Master, Naomi Grand, stepped forward and said to Zephyr, "That traitor, Darryl, had already taken refuge with the New World army! Please forgive us, but we cannot allow the traitor's parents go!"
Master Leonard also stepped forward; he
said righteously, "Yes, Darryl, who is a part of the World Universe, has surrendered to the rebels and helped the foreigners to attack his compatriots. That is an unforgivable act. How can we let his parents go?"
"Yes! If that was how they raised their useless son, why should we let them go?"
The others were agitated; they shouted in anger.
When he heard the slanderous claims against Darryl, Zephyr's expression turned gloomy. He smiled; he did not show any anger. He looked around and said, "You keep saying that Darryl has taken refuge in the New World camp. However, did anyone see him harm anyone from the World Universe?
"You claim to be righteous, but when there's an issue, you did not try to find out the truth! Instead, you claimed to be just and made arrogant conclusions about other people! You imprisoned an innocent couple for what you believed to be the truth without any investigation. You called that righteousness?"
Zephyr was resonant, powerful, and loud!
The sect masters stared at Zephyr in silence. They were unable to defend themselves!
Zephyr took a deep breath. His patience was all but gone. "I'll repeat it—let them go!"
"Zephyr, stop this nonsense." The Abbess' expression was cold as her long sword appeared in her hands. "As long as we are here, you’ll never take the wicked animal’s parents away!" "Well, well, well!"
"If you want to take the scumbag’s parents, then do it over our dead bodies!"
The other sect masters chanted angry remarks too. They had also stirred their internal energy, drew their weapons and aimed them at Zephyr!
