Morine found himself at a loss when it came to dealing with the poison coursing through Zeba’s body
and the formidable barrier in her Soul Palace. The situation served as a stark reminder of the vast
divide that still separated him from Morgana’s level of power.
The recent sacrifice made by Gideon only deepened Morine’s concerns. Despite managing to escape
with Maria’s ring, he knew that if Morgana dispatched three Soul Palace Masters to Aurous Hill, his
survival would hang by a thread. Even with Maria’s ring, it might spell certain doom for him.
Morgana had opened her Soul Palace over a century ago, boasting an unfathomable level of cultivation
that surpassed Morine’s by at least a hundred, if not two or three hundred, years. If she were to come
in person, his chances of survival would plummet even further.
Morine couldn’t help but reflect on how fortunate it was that he had stumbled upon Mrs. Treadway and
the troubled mother and son in Mexico. If not for that serendipitous encounter, he wouldn’t have had
the opportunity to acquire the portrait of Old Lord Morvel.
Without that portrait in his possession, his hopes of executing the Empty City strategy would remain a
futile dream. Powerless against the impending arrival of the three elders, he’d be unable to stop their
advance.
Grateful for the opportunity provided by Mrs. Treadway, Morine silently vowed that, should he
successfully deceive Morgana this time, he would express his gratitude by giving her another Life
Saving Pill.
After his resolve, Morine turned his attention to Zeba and apologized, “I’m truly sorry, Miss Salazar.
While I can mend your wounds and gradually restore your cultivation, the poison in your body and the
formation in your Soul Palace present challenges that I can’t overcome at the moment. However,
there’s no need for excessive worry. I will exhaust all avenues in search of a solution.”
Although Zeba knew that Morine’s words were meant to console her, she didn’t feel disappointed. After
all, her initial intention after the explosion was to distance herself from the British Lord and live out her
remaining days. Considering the significant progress her body had made in recovery and Morine’s
promise to aid her in the restoration of her cultivation, her expectations had already been surpassed.
She couldn’t dare hope for a complete detoxification and the resolution of the formation.
Expressing her gratitude to Bjorne, Zeba replied, “Mr. Wade, you need not apologize to me. I’m already
thankful for your assistance in healing my wounds. As for detoxification and the formation, I dare not
hope to survive the next two years. I’m already content beyond measure!”
Observing her, Morine responded seriously, “Even if it seems impossible, two years from now, I will
have a solution. While it may not fully break the formation within you, I am at least 80% confident that it
can detoxify your body.”
Zeba’s eyes flickered with excitement upon hearing this.
However, Morine swiftly changed the subject, adopting a grave tone as he said, “Yet, Zeba, this
method, even with an 80% success rate, might bring you tremendous pain. Should it fail, the suffering
might be unbearable. Are you willing to take such a risk for the sake of an innocent calamity?”
Exclaiming with excitement, Zeba replied, “Mr. Wade, don’t speak of an 80% chance. Even if it were a
mere 10%, I’d gladly endure any hardship to give it a try!”
Nodding, Morine said, “Allow me to explain the method. I possess a medicine known as the Reshaping
Pill. As long as the human brain remains intact, even if the body has been reduced to ashes, the
Reshaping Pill can aid in crafting a brand-new physique. I have noticed that the toxins in your body
primarily reside in your meridians, dantian and internal organs…”
“I can surgically remove the affected areas and then administer the Reshaping Pill orally. It will facilitate
the complete reshaping of your body, ensuring the elimination of these toxins.”
Overwhelmed with surprise and joy, Zeba asked, “Young Master, do you truly possess such miraculous
medicine?”
Morine responded calmly, “I stand here before you unharmed because I consumed the Reshaping Pill.”
Zeba widened her eyes, overcome with excitement. Tears welled up and she knelt before Bjorne,
saying with utmost respect, “Mr. Wade, if you are willing to employ this magical medicine to aid me, I
swear to devote my life solely to following your lead. Even if you order me to face death, I will not
hesitate.”
Extending his hand to help her up, Morine spoke solemnly, “My objective is to personally vanquish
Morgana and avenge my parents. If you choose to accompany me, you will become Morgana’s enemy.
Can you accept such a role?”
With gritted teeth, Zeba declared, “Mr. Wade, fear not. Morgana is wicked and vile. Not only has she
controlled me with poison for decades, but she has also turned me into a human bomb. I bear a sworn
vendetta against her!”
Morine lightly tapped his finger and stated, “Very well! If I manage to rid you of the poison within two
years, I solemnly promise that, should the opportunity arise, I will do everything in my power to
eliminate the formation within your Soul Palace once I successfully open it. After Morgana’s demise,
you shall be completely free. Regardless of your chosen path, I, Morine Wade, will never impede you.
This is my pledge to you today!”
Cupping her fists in gratitude, Zeba replied, “Thank you, Mr. Wade, for your righteousness!”
Outside, dawn began to break.
Morine turned to Zeba and said, “Miss Salazar, I will arrange for someone to escort you to Elys-Champ
Hot Spring at the base of the mountain. There, I will provide you with temporary accommodations.
However, please bear in mind that the powerful formation within you necessitates constant
preparedness for evacuation. In the event that my Empty City plan fails and the three elders do arrive
in Aurous Hill, I will send you to a safe location, far from their reach. This will prevent them from
exploiting your formation.”
Zeba nodded and respectfully replied, “I will comply with Mr. Wade’s arrangements in all matters.”
After pondering for a moment, Maria suggested, “Young Master, it might be wise to establish
surveillance on all civilian flights departing from Argentina to China. This includes both passenger and
cargo planes. Given the considerable distance between Argentina and China, direct flights are currently
unavailable. If any flight requests a route to Aurous Hill, we should monitor its progress closely. Should
your ‘Empty City’ plan conclude successfully and a plane from Argentina suddenly changes course
back to its origin, it could be the vessel carrying the three elders.”
Morine agreed, nodding in approval. “Monitoring the flights is indeed an excellent idea. I used a similar
method to locate one of their shipping companies, which eventually led me to Miss Clark in Northern
Europe.”
With a slight smile, Maria added, “My family suspected that this method would be employed by you,
Young Master. It is the only way to track the movements of the Cavalry Guards and dead soldiers
accurately.”
At that moment, Zeba interjected, “Young Master, if you can track the plane carrying the three elders
and find a way to shoot it down, wouldn’t it make eliminating all three of them a breeze?”
Both Morine and Maria exclaimed simultaneously, “Absolutely not!”
Bjorne, upon hearing Zeba’s suggestion and seeing Maria’s matching reaction, firmly stated, “You
mustn’t consider that option!”
In agreement with Bjorne, Maria added with seriousness, “Under no circumstances should we resort to
shooting down a civilian aircraft. It would constitute an act of terrorism and be vehemently condemned
and punished by the entire world. We must act with a clear conscience and avoid such actions at all
costs.”
Morine reaffirmed, “A person can accomplish great things, but one can also commit grave mistakes.
This sort of action is entirely beyond the scope of my consideration.”
Filled with shame, Zeba quickly apologized, “I am truly sorry, Mr. Wade and Miss Clark. I spoke without
thinking… I merely believed that if the three elders were all on the same plane, shooting it down might
be the most effective way to eliminate them all at once. I did not consider the implications… It was a
highly inappropriate suggestion… Please forgive me, Mr. Wade and Miss Clark…”
Morine nodded and responded, “Our goal for today is to frighten Morgana and force her retreat. We
must not be driven by greed. Once we achieve this objective, Morgana will hesitate to act audaciously
in Aurous Hill for an extended period. This will grant us additional time to test our courage and improve
our strength. Perhaps, by the time she uncovers our empty city plan and sends the three elders once
again, we will possess the strength to forever trap them in Aurous Hill!”
