Fane was not a person who muddled along. If he let things go when Warren spent so much effort to go against him, what was the difference between him and a useless person?
He had to make Warren pay dearly since Warren dared to take action against him in such an unscrupulous manner. Just as Fane was thinking of how he could get back at Warren, there was an abrupt knock on his door.
Fane quickly asked Nash to enter the Mustard Seed before tidying his clothes and opening the door. Standing outside was, in fact, Ambrose.
As the Dual Sovereign Pavilion’s deacon, Ambrose was normally burdened by odd errands. He would not come to Fane if nothing had happened. On top of that, Ambrose had a smile on his face and seemed to be in quite a good mood.
Before Fane was able to ask about it, Ambrose started, "You don’t need to invite me in; I'm just here to inform you about some things. Just now, Elder Lee personally investigated the grudge between you and Zeph. Zeph is currently detained in the elder council, awaiting his sentencing.”
Fane relaxed when he heard this. Although Ambrose did not tell him the findings of their investigation, he knew that they had a thorough investigation regarding what happened between them and did not wrong him.
Ambrose then continued, "I had never imagined that Zeph would be such a shallow person. He was bought over with just five hundred spirited crystals. This matter had touched the bottom line of the pavilion. It’s a big issue for a person to misuse their position to fulfill their personal desire. Elder Lee had personally ordered for him to be relieved of his position today."
In fact, there were one or two similar cases in every pavilion with regards to what Zeph did. If Fane was just a usual participant in the assessment, it was not a big issue for somebody to misuse their position and power. Most of the time, the pavilion would turn a blind eye from this. However, this was not a simple matter.
Fane could be considered a genius with his talents. If Zeph managed to pull off what he did, it would mean that the Dual Sovereign Pavilion had lost a genius.
If they considered the matter from this point of view, this was no small matter, and it was enough to get the attention of those with a higher position. Ambrose was naturally happy that Zeph could not cause any more issues.
After all, the two of them did not like one another and had caused trouble for each other. Ambrose wished for Zeph to be hung tomorrow. That was why Ambrose had gotten happier when he looked at Fane, wanting to call him his brother so badly.
On top of that, Fane would definitely get an important position in the Dual Sovereign Pavilion with his talents.
"This issue happened because of a problem that happened with the Dual Sovereign Pavilion’s management team. I’m sorry that you have to suffer such grievance. Hence, Elder Lee purposely gave you those five hundred spirited crystals to compensate for the inconvenience." Ambrose took out a box that contained 500 lower-grade spirited crystals after he reached into the space ring.
"I have something else to attend to now. I'm just here to tell you this, apart from sending you the spirited crystals. Well, that is all. I'll be leaving now." It seems like Ambrose truly had taken some time off to do this. In fact, he could have ordered his subordinate to do this errand of telling Fane some news and delivering the spirited crystals. However, Ambrose was delighted to share this news with Fane, which was why he personally delivered the crystals.
Fane nodded and thanked Ambrose before he placed the spirited crystals into his Mustard Seed. The Mustard Seed was not only a means of transportation, but it was also a large storage unit. It was several times bigger than usual space rings.
At this moment, many of the informal disciples who joined the pavilion were standing outside. These disciples had just joined the pavilion, and they, of course, did not want to remain in the pavilion all the time. They came out to enjoy some fresh air and conversations about how they should train later.
The Dual Sovereign Pavilion had a free range policy when it came to training their disciples. They were allowed to do anything they wanted as long as they had sufficient contribution points. It did not matter if they visited the Martial Art Techniques and Martial Skills Hall to choose martial art techniques or martial skills. They could also visit the Wooden Spirit Hall or other places!
With this, they overheard Ambrose and
Fane's conversation. Many of these people looked at Fane enviously, but Fane merely ignored them, not wanting to entertain them.
