Charleuse looked at the silent Lankesh and sighed. "Lankesh, this time it is really your fault. Skyle is a glimmer of hope for the Chinese. If she makes a breakthrough, it will be good for our whole clan, but you..."
These words seemed to have pushed Lankesh's buttons. He suddenly whipped his head up, his eyes scarlet, and shouted excitedly, "Is Skyle the only glimmer of hope for the Chinese? In the past, I was also the hope of the clan. Why didn't they support me back then? I was just one step away from breaking through and entering the vital fetus..."
Charleuse's face froze, then he sighed and shook his head.
Thasheel's face was riddled with mockery as he said with disdain, "My, Lankesh, you really know how to flatter yourself! Which part of you can be compared to Skyle?"
"Back then, you barely managed to reach the ninth stage of the Soul Refine Realm in your eighties. There wasn't much hope for you to make a breakthrough in the first place. It was the First Elder who pleaded for you at that time and gave you the resources to allow you to break through to the Fetus Refine Realm.”
"After you failed twice in a row, he gave you some of his resources and went to the former governor. He gave you another chance - it was the third chance, mind you. In the end, you still failed."
"I thought you had some self-awareness, but I didn't expect that you would still be so ridiculous after so many years."
"What? This..." Lankesh gave a start and then shook his head desperately. He said through his gritted teeth, "This-this is impossible. This is absolutely impossible. I am a genius. If I had enough resources, I definitely would not lose to Skyle. I..."
Looking at the hysterical Lankesh, Charleuse let out a long sigh and said slowly, "Just in time. Skyle has come out of seclusion. Let's go and meet her together!"
Immediately, a group of people restrained Lankesh and brought him out.
Charleuse finally said to Fade, "Mr. Chen, come with us!"
Nodding yes, Fade followed them.
Amid the howling night wind, the group of people came to the backyard of the governor's mansion, opened the entrance of the cellar, and walked in.
About ten meters deep underground, they finally came to a stone room.
On both sides of the stone room, there was an entrance.
Red light and hot air surged out from the left entrance. A stone gate was closed at the right entrance.
Charleuse looked at the entrance to the right, ran his positive energy, and shouted, "Skyle, we're here!"
The stone door opened and a thin, fairskinned woman walked out.
The woman's facial features were round, and her hair was tied into two buns on her head.
Her big and round black eyes were radiating shrewdness.
In general, she looked like a 14 or 15-year-old girl, unlike a thirty-year-old at all.
However, on second thought, according to the age system of the Earth Yuan World in Sun-Moon City, she was indeed about the same age as 14 or 15 years old on Earth.
The woman glanced around and cupped her hands to salute everyone. "Greetings, Elders!"
"Let's dispense with the formality, Skyle!" Charleuse nodded gently and then added, "How is your cultivation?"
Upon hearing this, Skyle immediately circulated her positive energy and spread them out in all directions.
Feeling this positive energy, the elders couldn't help but smile and nod their heads.
"The ninth stage of the Soul Refine Realm. Skyle, you're stronger than us already
"This aura is much stronger than what I had back then!"
"If she was placed in the Great Hsia Domain, or anywhere else in Earth Yuan World, she wouldn't even be worth mentioning."
As he spoke, he looked at Charleuse and the other elders and said animatedly, "So what if you've seen through my plan? Mr. Chai has already received the news. When he brings his men over, how can you block them? Even if you reach the Fetus Refine Realm, the result will only be death."
"I have nothing to lose if the entire Chinese clan dies alongside me!"
At the end of his words, Lankesh gave an unbridled laugh.
The faces of Charleuse and the other elders turned nasty.
They had to admit that the situation was not good. The matter of Skyle had been exposed, and the official force of the Great Hsia Domain, represented by Evorald, would definitely come.
At that time, Skyle's breakthrough plan, which had been prepared for more than ten years, would be ruined.
For a moment, the entire stone chamber was silent. No one made a sound. Only Lankesh's presumptuous laughter sounded extremely ear-piercing.
At this moment, a voice sounded.
"Just kill that Evorald if he dares to come!"
Everyone was stunned. They turned to look at Fade, who was speaking, with different expressions.
Lankesh gave a mocking laugh. "Who do you think you are to kill Evorald? He's an expert at the fifth stage of the Fetus Refine Realm who can crush you with a single finger. Do you really think you're somebody? You're funny if you ask me!"
"Charleuse, are you going to rely on this kind
of guy? Man, this is making me laugh!"
