Chapter 2688 ChaosSuddenly, one of the disciples stepped forward and asked in disbelief, “Mr. Holt, did you kill our
previous lord?”
“I did. He was weak and useless. That was why Emerald Cauldron Sect was struggling all those years.
Don't you see how mighty Emerald Cauldron Sect has become after I took reign?” Hosen admitted to
the allegation rather casually.
Many of the disciples were stunned by those words, but they kept silent.
Hosen's quick admission of guilt caught Viola by surprise.
novelbinThere and then, Ghaylen raised his sword and yelled, “Fellow disciples, since Hosen has already
admitted his crime, let's unite and kill this betrayer! We must avenge our previous lord!”
“Kill the betrayer! Avenge our previous lord!” Ghaylen's disciples shouted.
However, the rest of the disciples kept mum.
Seeing that, Ghaylen looked at Ebenez and asked, “Ebenez, our previous lord treated you well. Are
you not uniting with us to take down Hosen?”
Deep down, Ghaylen knew the answer to that question, but he wanted to hear it from Ebenez himself.
“Ghaylen, I never like fighting. Therefore, I'm sitting out. To me, Hosen is a worthy lord.” Ebenez smiled
and took a few steps backward to show his reluctance to interfere. Although Ghaylen had seen that coming, he was still livid.
“You're a despicable man! I shouldn't have trusted you back then! You'll face consequences for your
actions!”
“Ghaylen, perhaps you should worry about yourself. I wonder if you and your disciples will live to see
another day,” Ebenez responded with a smug look on his face.
“Fellow disciples, join me and kill the betrayer! We must avenge our previous lord!” Ghaylen waved his
arm and dashed toward Hosen. If we want to live, we have no choice but to fight with all we have!
“Fellow disciples, join me in the fight to kill Hosen! He betrayed us! We must rebuild Emerald Cauldron
Sect's reputation!” Viola roared and joined Ghaylen.
Zebediah led the rest of Ghaylen's disciples and charged forward as well.
At that point, a lot of disciples were still hesitating, and most of them were waiting to see if Ebenez
would change his mind. His decision would determine the winner of the battle.
Unfortunately, Ebenez retreated to the side and sat down. It was obvious he wanted to sit out the battle
and enjoy the show.
“Ms. Viola, are you guys really willing to risk your lives today? If you surrender now, I'll spare your
disciples! Do you want to watch your disciples die to fulfill your selfish desires?” Hosen sneered.
“Hosen, we're all ready to die. None of my disciples is a coward!” Ghaylen shouted and launched his
attacks on Hosen. Right then, chaos ensued in the main hall of Emerald Cauldron Sect as Ghaylen's disciples also started
fighting Hosen's disciples.
At that moment, Sigurd, Hosen's principal disciple, wasn't fighting. Instead, he fled and hid outside the
main hall. If I'm alive, unlike what everyone thinks, Jared is definitely still alive! If Jared dies, my bodily
spirit will vanish instantly. Without my bodily spirit, I'll be dead. Since Jared is alive, I shouldn't take part
in the battle. If I join the battle, I'll be in hot water no matter which party emerges victorious!
