As a Grand Emperor, Benedict’s retaliation would be catastrophic even though his Path Seal was broken. Concerned that this region could be utterly destroyed, Silvester sealed his strength away.
Benedict collapsed to the ground. There were cracks all over his body. His face was pale, and there was blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. His face was solemn as he asked coldly, “Why?”
“Hmph!”
Silvester sat down and looked at Benedict who was lying on the ground before saying coldly, “Surely you know the reason.”
“A-Aren’t you injured?” Benedict’s face was pale.
He never thought that he would be ambushed and that Silvester’s strength had recovered.
Helvius stood up and walked toward Benedict. Glancing downward, he said coldly, “Benedict Oscar, we have never mistreated you. Why did you defect to the Sanctuary?”
Benedict’s face was dark. He knew that his identity was exposed. As such, he remained silent and simply glared at them.
“Didn’t expect this, did you?” Helvius said, “You never expected we’d make a move on you before the Elixir Gathering commences.”
“Indeed.”
Benedict said coldly, “However, do you think you stand a chance against the Sanctuary just because you have subdued me? No way. The Sanctuary’s might is beyond your comprehension.”
James said coldly, “If the Sanctuary is as mighty as you say, they wouldn’t have tried taking the Old Master out of the equation.”
Then, he uttered word by word, “That’s because they fear the Old Master.”
