James did not know what to do.
He did not expect Xuri to come so soon. Saachi had just arrived, and here was Xuri, almost right on her tail. Moreover, Xuri brought the powerhouses of the Yhala Sect and Daemonium Sect with her. She was not afraid of the Verde Academy at all.
In the Apex Main Hall of the Verde Academy, several heads of the houses gathered. There were also a few elders and thousands of powerhouses.
“Who’s Salinese?” Lothar, who was in the main seat, asked.
The living beings in the main hall shook their heads. None of them knew who Salinese was.
At once, Lothar glanced at the powerhouses in the main hall and asked, “I’ll give you three days to search the disciples in your sect. Find out if there’s someone named Salinese. Check if any disciples brought outsiders into the academy.”
“Yes, Sir.”
After receiving the order, the powerhouses of the academy left.
James and Wael also left the main hall.
They returned to the apex of the Tempris House.
When they arrived at the apex, Saachi appeared.
Her face was still pale. Looking at James and Wael, who appeared worried, she said, “Xuri has come for me. I don’t want to trouble the Verde Academy and the Tempris House. I will leave now. I have enough strength to make it out alive.”
Upon hearing that, James looked at her and said, “No need to rush.”
In between words, he turned to look at Wael. He begged, “Sir Wael, please think of something. Saachi and I share a deep connection.”
James no longer wanted to see Saachi get hunted down.
“What do you want me to do?” Wael felt helpless as he said, “That’s Yhala. She’s been a powerhouse since countless epochs ago. Besides, she brought so many powerhouses with her. I can’t stop her at all unless we can ask the other houses to ally with us. If we all attack them, we can defeat them.”
Wael was confident in the ability of the Five Houses of the Verde Academy.
Nonetheless, it would be impossible for the five houses to work together because the Tempris House was the one hiding Saachi.
