Chapter 583: Chapter 367 Master_1
“I am holding a letter in my hand, it will reveal all upon the Lord’s perusal.”
Cain Scarlet nodded. Such a matter certainly wouldn’t allow for any corner-cutting. If it weren’t for the urgency of the situation, he would have continued to hide within the Demonic Sky Gate instead of fleeing to deliver the message.
Deputy Lord Amilia Scarlet, who had been doubtful, looked at the calm demeanor of Tanner Scarlet, and concluded that what he had said might indeed be true. The stakes were too high, affecting powers within millions of miles of the territory. There might be an imminent major war brewing.
He reached out a hand and said, “Give it to me, let me have a look,” but Tanner Scarlet shook his head, baffling Amilia Scarlet. Why did he refuse to show him the letter?
“Only the Lord can read it.” Tanner Scarlet said sternly, “This is not something I’ve worked on alone, but a blood-spattered letter written collaboratively by spies from three major Lords, including more than a dozen Sects. This is the only copy, hence it must be opened by the Lord himself.”
During his hasty escape, the other Sect spies had repeatedly instructed him to hand the letter to the Lords, without allowing any room for error. If the letter was destroyed, he wouldn’t be able to face the already sacrificed spies.
“So, you don’t trust me?” Amilia Scarlet’s frown deepened. He held a high moral standing in the Scarlet Clan and served the Clan and the Lord with a single heart. There was no room for any dual allegiance.
Tanner Scarlet persisted, “I’m sorry, but I can only give it to the Lord. While I trust the Vice Lord’s character, I have a promise and responsibility to fulfill.”
“I must see it today.” Maintaining his temper under continuous refusals from Tanner Scarlet, Amilia Scarlet began to get angry. What difference did it make between him and the Lord? Even the Lord addressed him as uncle, yet an insignificant spy dared to disregard him?
“Considering the threat to the Lords, there’s no room for delays. I need to understand the situation to prepare for the next steps, isn’t it? There’s no saying when the Lord will return, it may even take a whole day. Do you think there’s enough time?”
“If anything goes wrong, it’s entirely on me,” replied Tanner Scarlet, fearlessly. He wasn’t the type to curry favor. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken on the mission of letter delivery, surviving numerous near-death situations. His belief was strong.
Only the Lords ardently sought the security of their territories, and he couldn’t trust anyone else. There were some who would rejoice at the actions of the Demonic Sky Gate, seeing it as an opportunity to seize resources and put the blame on others. Tanner Scarlet wasn’t sure if Amilia Scarlet had changed after not seeing him for ten years.
Amilia Scarlet stared at Tanner Scarlet for a long time, his knife ready: “You’ve got guts. It seems I have to kill you and take the letter by force.”
At this moment, Bart Cloud became anxious but was stopped by Logan, which puzzled him greatly. Was he not going to save Tanner Scarlet?
Logan gave a faint smile, using Divine Consciousness Transmission: “Don’t rush. Even though Amilia Scarlet has activated his spiritual power, there’s no killing intent in him.”
“I have no other choice but to fight!” Tanner Scarlet was not intimidated. Instead, he pulled out his weapon. Despite just possessing the strength of the Transcending realm, he was facing the Vice Lord of the Scarlet Clan. The most crucial point was that he had to personally deliver the letter to the Lord.
The atmosphere grew tense. Amilia Scarlet suddenly laughed heartily, his cold demeanor vanished: “Good, that’s the spirit of our young generation of the Scarlet Clan.”
“I will not look at the letter. Let the Lord see.” Amilia Scarlet patted Tanner Scarlet’s shoulder: “I was testing you earlier. After all, you are a spy and one must always be cautious. Now, I believe you are absolutely loyal to the Scarlet Clan. These ten years have been hard on you.”
“It’s nothing. It’s my duty to the Scarlet Clan.” Tanner Scarlet abrupted got emotional. Just now, he was prepared to fight with Amilia Scarlet, risking his life. The road he took was filled with hardships and life-threatening experiences, the moment his fellow members recognized him for those ordeals, he felt it was worth it.
Amilia Scarlet sighed deeply: “The Scarlet Clan will never fail you. Stay with us in the future. I promise, in the name of the Vice Lord, at the very least, to assign you a Steward post to assist the Lord in managing this massive city.”
“The issue with the Demonic Sky Gate is indeed urgent. I have already sent a Divine Consciousness Transmission. The Lord is on his way back. The situation between the major Lords recently has been very tense, and the Lord has been rushing around.”
Next, Amilia Scarlet walked to Logan, “You have done a great favor to the Scarlet Clan by saving our person, I will give you a million Spirit Stones as a reward.”
“A million?” Logan chuckled: “On the journey to protecting Tanner Scarlet, the enemies I faced were all above Dominators, even some of the Half-step Saint Seat.”
“Indeed, I have failed to give it due thought. A million Spirit Stones is too shabby, but our Scarlet Clan is not as rich as other Lords. Over half of the Spirit Stones we receive are given to support the poor. Hence, the Scarlet Clan owes you a favor.”
Amilia Scarlet didn’t get angry but responded earnestly, yet Logan shook his head. The other party had misunderstood him. frёewebnoѵēl.com
“I don’t want a reward. Demonic Sky Gate’s plot is targeting all the Lords, which will inevitably lead to the common people being thrust into dire conditions. As one of them, I should do my part.”
Hearing Logan’s words, Amilia Scarlet felt ashamed: “It’s right that I shouldn’t trade righteousness for Spirit Stones. If the Demonic Sky Gate really plans to wage a war, the Scarlet Clan will definitely join hands with the other Lords to disrupt their plot, no matter the cost.”
