The legendary warrior Chapter 1230 Guillermo's Betrayal

The reason behind the rift's appearance put the Desolate Sorcery tribe in a precarious situation.

Once they spotted the rift, the creatures of the Desolate Sorcery tribe wanted to pass through it to get
out. However, they found that there was a strong suppressive force on it, preventing them from passing
through.

The suppressive force was equal to a blow from a three-star lower spiritual emperor.

However, the strongest warriors of the Desolate Sorcery tribe were just two-star lower spiritual
emperors. They couldn't reach a higher realm.

It was impossible for them to pass through the rift. If they tried to force their way through, they would
have to suffer dire consequences.

Realizing what was going to happen, they chose to stop for a while.

However, several days after the rift appeared, they finally figured out why it was formed.

It was the result of the collision between their place and another Sealed Land.

After the two lands collided, the two ancient arrays which had sealed them collided and caused the two
lands to begin to merge as one.

The other Sealed Land was the place where the Devil Flood Dragon tribe stayed. This tribe belonged to
the devil race.

There were a few three-star lower spiritual emperors in the Devil Flood Dragon tribe. So, overall, the
Desolate Sorcery tribe was weaker than them, and they were no match for the former.



The devil race held deep grudge against the creatures from the continent. The Devil Flood Dragon
tribe's hatred for their sworn enemy had grown over the years after they had been sealed away. They
slaughtered the Desolate Sorcery tribe in cold blood once they crossed paths.

Facing their powerful enemies, the members of the Desolate Sorcery tribe had no other choice but to
activate the broken supreme weapon left behind by their ancestors—the Sorcerous Combat Palace.

If they wanted to get the Sorcerous Combat Palace working, it would cost the powerful members of the
Desolate Sorcery tribe their lives and blood essence.

Ten spiritual emperors of the tribe gave up their lives to activate the weapon.

All the remaining members of the Desolate Sorcery tribe entered the Sorcerous Combat Palace to hide
from the Devil Flood Dragon tribe.

However, the problem was that the Sorcerous Combat Palace's effects would wear off in twenty years.

They didn't think it was a good idea to sacrifice more spiritual emperors after twenty years to keep the
weapon continuing working.

Moreover, they didn't have so many powerful members at the Emperor Level left in their tribe.

In the end, another three elders at the Emperor Level in their tribe scarified their lives. They unleashed
their full strength and successfully pushed Mordechai through the rift.

Despite that, Mordechai had sustained severe injuries after being hit by the suppressive force of the rift.
He had almost died passing through it, and he was left weak and incapable to fend for himself. He
needed help badly. If no one had healed him, he would succumb to his injuries.

Fortunately, he had stumbled into Ashley who was in the middle of her training.



She saved him and brought him back. With her help, he joined the wood branch. He saw her as his
savior. Anything she asked, he would do for her as long as he could.

It has been sixteen years since he had left the Sealed Land.

Over the years, he had only one goal, which was to become a three-star lower spiritual emperor. Once
he accomplished that goal, he would return to the Sealed Land and rescue his people.

He was a talented warrior. He had even become a disciple of the wood branch. If he hadn't been
severely injured when he passed through that rift, it wouldn't have taken him sixteen years to become a
three-star lower spiritual emperor.

Of course, Lloyd was also a big help to him.

Fortunately, the Sorcerous Combat Palace would protect his people for twenty years. He still had time
to save them all.

"Oh, I see. I didn't expect that you have been through so much. I finally understand why you care about
nothing but cultivation. It also didn't occur to me that you are from the Desolate Sorcery tribe. No
wonder you possess such an incredibly strong body,"

Hayes said after hearing Mordechai's story. He was listening to Mordechai intently, hanging on to his
every word.

"Sixteen years is a long time. No one knows what had happened over the years. We'd better hurry up
so that we can get there earlier," Ricky said. "I hope you don't mind me asking—but why didn't you turn
to Elder Lloyd and other people for help?"

"The saints can't set foot in the Sealed Land. Additionally, there are only two beings that I trust on the
entire continent: Elder Lloyd and Ashley. I don't ask others for help because the creatures from the



continent don't like us," Mordechai replied.

"I don't want to lie to you. Elder Lloyd asked me to believe you guys and ask you for help. I hope you
will not get mad," he said, facing Ricky and Hayes.

"Mordechai, don't worry. We understand you. If we were in your shoes, we wouldn't trust others so
easily, either," Hayes responded. "The sooner we get there, the better. We need to hurry up."

"Yes!" Mordechai replied, looking at them gratefully.

He could feel gratitude bubbling in his heart.

Then, he and his companions sped up and moved at full speed.

However, a couple of hours later, five figures showed up out of nowhere and blocked their way.

They recognized one of them. It was Guillermo.

They did not know the other three men and the woman that were with him.

Ricky could sense from their auras that they were from the Red Potentate Roc tribe.

He immediately realized what was going on. 'Guillermo is upset about losing to me and Mordechai, so
he wants to take us out. He has joined hands with the Red Potentate Roc tribe. They are here to kill
us,' he thought to himself.

"Guillermo, what are you doing?" Hayes asked in a cold voice. He could tell that Guillermo was up to
no good.

"Humph! Why do you think I'm here? I've come here to kill you," Guillermo replied aggressively.



"I don't get it. Why do you want us dead? Is it because you lost to us and weren't able to become the
holy son?" Mordechai cut in. "Even though you didn't become the holy son, Elder Lloyd still thinks
highly of you, and you are still an important disciple of the wood branch. Otherwise, he wouldn't have
asked you to take this mission which you refused earlier!"

"Shut up! You are the holy son now. You've stolen my dream! You will never understand how I feel. You
have no idea how important it is to me.

Only if I became the holy son could I win Ashely's affection. Her love was all I ever wanted, and you
have ruined my chances!"

When he finished his sentence, Guillermo looked at Ashley. His eyes were full of lust and obsession.
Ashley shivered in disgust.

"Guillermo, I never look down on anyone. I never think of you differently, and I certainly don't care
whether you are the holy son or not. However, what you are doing disappoints me.

I didn't expect that you would betray us to get what you want.

I despise you now," Ashley said, frowning at Guillermo.

Suddenly, Guillermo felt fire light up inside of him. His emotions suddenly got the better of him, and the
look in his eyes suddenly became ferocious. He did not look like the Guillermo they knew. Perhaps this
was what he really was. Ashley's response just made him show his true colors.

"You can say whatever you like because I don't really care what you say about me anymore. Today,
they will die. I will imprison you, and you will become my woman.

The wood branch will also belong to me!" Guillermo proclaimed, staring at Ashley.

"Humph! Dream on!" Ricky said, sneering at him.



He didn't expect that Guillermo would be so cruel and selfish.

'Perhaps there is no absolute good or evil. We may just see him as bad because we do not share the
same stance.

He is doing all this just to get what he is after,' Ricky thought to himself at the same
time.
