My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 1727

Eliana immediately waved her sleeves and sent June flying several dozen miles out. "June..."

Gerbind immediately raced over.

"You old hag, you're messing with a government official!" Benedict roared in fury.

He had gotten to know Gerbind and June since his days training at the Divine Strategy Squadron. The three used to be inseparable.

It was because he had spent the past couple of years practicing his cultivation in solitude that they had been less in touch.

So what if this woman had achieved the Profound Oriental Realm?

When the Limitless Sword Sect angered Nash previously, he immediately ordered a bombing of them.

The Misty Templar Court was so much weaker than the Limitless Sword Sect, so where did Eliana get the courage to challenge the Divine Strategy Squadron? "How dare you shoot your mouth? You deserve a beating for that!" Eliana waved her arms once again.

An illusory palm flew toward Benedict's face at an alarming speed.

Suddenly, the pendant Benedict wore around his neck unleashed a massive force and crushed the illusory palm Eliana had produced into pieces.

"A Profound Oriental Realm crystal talisman?"

Eliana furrowed her eyebrows together slightly. "Which sect do you belong to?"

A Profound Oriental Realm crystal talisman was extremely difficult to produce. It required the alchemist to first transform a high-quality gemstone into a crystal talisman and then a Profound Oriental Realm expert to infuse the talisman with their powers. Benedict recovered from his fright.

He had never imagined the members of the Misty Templar Court to go this far.

Despite being an elder who had achieved the Profound Oriental Realm, Eliana had decided to strike out against a youngster when things were not going her way.

If it had not been for the protective talisman his great-grandfather had gifted him, that old hag would probably have already sent him flying.

He brought a hand up to the protective talisman resting on his chest and touched the cracks that had formed on the crystal.

His great-grandfather had once said this crystal could withstand three attacks from someone who had achieved the Profound Oriental Realm.

"I don't belong to any sect. I'm a part of the Divine Strategy Squadron!"

"Despite being a revered elder of a secular sect, you decided to attack without first distinguishing what is right and what is wrong. Do you really think no one can wield control over you?" Benedict had a solemn look on his face as he questioned her. If Nash dared to bomb the Limitless Sword Sect, then Benedict would muster the confidence to ask his great-grandfather to order a bombing on the Misty Templar Court.

"The Divine Strategy Squadron!"

"That means you're a descendent of Anton Varhess!"

Eliana had a scornful look on her face. "Even your grandfather would have to treat me with respect if we ever crossed paths. You're merely a descendant of his, so who do you think you are?"

The Misty Templar Court was headed by three Profound Oriental Realm experts.

Anton had once paid a visit to the Misty Templar Court with lavish gifts in tow.

In her opinion, the Divine Strategy Squadron would only think of ways of establishing friendly relations with the secular sects instead of offending them over and over again. "How dare you ask me who I think I am? Why don't you take a good look at who you are?

"The Divine Strategy Squadron is in charge of protecting the country and its citizens, and all members are well-decorated. Yet, the Misty Templar Court not only acts as an accomplice to their poorly behaved disciples but also assaults government officials!

"What's the matter? Thinking of betraying the country?

"Is the Misty Templar Court considering challenging Drakonia's Ministry of Defense?"

Benedict gazed long and hard into Eliana's eyes as he spoke. A majestic aura emanated from him as he spoke.

Dallas stood nearby them, a proud smile on his face.

This young man's demeanor resembled his great-grandfather's greatly Benedict would be able to shoulder the responsibility of being the next commander of the Divine Strategy Squadron.

Eliana's face turned various shades of red after hearing those accusations.

Betraying the country?

She might be a Profound Oriental Realm expert, but there was no way she would be able to withstand the consequences of that accusation.

"Hmph, how arrogant!"

A low voice rang out from the skies.

Elistan and Conrad hurriedly clasped their hands together as they greeted, "Welcome, Great Elder!"

A middle-aged man dressed in gray-colored robes descended from the skies.

He was Barrett Waters, the Great Elder of the Zen Heart Sect. He looked to be in his 40s but had actually been alive for over 300 years. He was one of the founders of the Zen Heart Sect. "Greetings, Elder!"

"Barrett!"
