“Hmph, as everyone knows, the protection array can only be activated

three times. It has already been activated twice. Cillian activated it

the final time without our consent and without discussing it with us.

“Clearly, he doesn’t regard us or the thousands of Path takers in Quiet

Winds Church with any importance!” Cain said coldly.

“Senior Trey is right. If Quiet Winds Church has to face a strong

enemy again without the protection array, the lives of the

practitioners will be at risk. Cillian doesn’t care about them at all and

is not worthy of being the head!” another elder from the Cain Sect

immediately chimed in.

“Cillian is not worthy? Then do you think you’re worthy?” Lloyd arrived

just then with his hands behind his back.

“Senior!” everyone greeted him.

Lloyd looked at Cain and the elder who spoke earlier with disda the head, Cillian holds the highest authority in Quiet Winds Cl His decisions represent the entire sect. What are you gossiping a

behind his back?”

Cain’s expression darkened. “We only have three uses with the

protection array. It’s already been used twice, and this is the last!”

Lloyd looked at Cain as if he were an idiot and said, “You think I need

you to tell me that?”

“I need an explanation from you!” Cain demanded.

Chappy-111

He had already won the hearts of a small number of Quiet Winds Church practitioners. All he needed to do was give the order and he could lead the group away. However, his goal was not to divide Quiet Winds Church but to reclaim it in its entirety.

“An explanation?”

Lloyd’s eyes turned cold. With a wave of his sleeve, vast true energy instantly sent Trey flying. “You have no power but constantly scheme for the leading position. Take a look at yourself before talking

nonsense!”

At that, the third-generation practitioners and several of the elders exchanged glances. They were unable to believe their ears when they heard such vulgar language coming from Lloyd’s mouth when he was known for his teachings.

Lloyd had disliked Cain for a long time. The man harbored envy and hatred. He was always plotting to overthrow Cillian. Lloyd even suspected that Cain might have been behind the poisoning incident when his junior was young.

Cain was a stage five great-grandmaster, but his strength worth mentioning in front of Lloyd, who was at stage nine.

Clutching his chest, Cain sternly said, “Lloyd, you’ve gone too far!

Lloyd straightened his flowing white eyebrows and sneered, “I’m grand elder of Quiet Winds Church. Is there a problem with me disciplining you when you are only the third elder?”

Cain’s eyes burned with fury, and the veins on his neck bulged.

Seeing him silent, Lloyd turned to the few elders standing with Cain.

CHUOD NET

What do you think? Is there a problem with me disciplining the third

elder?”

“N-No problem!”

“No problem at all!”

They shook their heads repeatedly.

Lloyd held a position in Quiet Winds Church that was just below the head. Sometimes, his influence even surpassed that of the head.

It was a hard task for them to shake Cillian when Lloyd was by his

side.

“Disperse, everyone. For the next three days, no one is allowed to

enter or leave Quiet Winds Church!” Lloyd withdrew his gaze and left

leisurely with his hands behind his back.

Cain stared at Lloyd’s departing figure, his eyes flickering with cold

killing intent. After a while, he returned to his room with his people.

The six elders, abandoning their previous submissive attitu

expressed their grievances, “Lloyd has indeed gone too far

to replace a way to suppress his arrogance!”

The seventh elder echoed, “Exactly They just want to monopoli

church’s power. We elders can only trail behind. We don’t even ha

say!”

The rules state that important decisions concerning the Quiet Winds Church should be jointly discussed by the eight elders. However, Cillian and Lloyd had clearly disregarded them and made decisions

on their own.

This matter would surely spread tomorrow, and by then, they would undoubtedly lose their reputation.

At this moment, the eighth elder suddenly opened his mouth and said, “I recall that there’s a way to deactivate the array. We should do it

now before the power is completely out.”
