The Exalted Warrior novel Chapter 2099

“There’s no need for that. Just say whatever you need to say.”

Dudley’s face turned a little purple. He did not care about anything anymore. “I beg you. Please spare me. I will definitely take you out and keep our mouths shut as long as you let us go.”

Fane nodded. They were his best shot. Fane and the others should be safe as long as they kept watch over the two brothers to ensure that they could not send any message to the other disciples of the Corpse Pavilion.

However, Fane keenly perceived the different meanings of what Dudley had just said. He turned around and stared at him with cold eyes. “How many days has it been since the trap array was set up?”

After calculating in his mind, Fane realized that it had been more than ten days since he stepped foot into the mountain. He did not feel any obstruction coming in here, that was to say, the trap array had not been set up at that time.

“Around nine or ten days,” said Dudley after mentally calculating it.

“And not one Thousand Leaves Pavilion people came here during that time?” asked Fane.

Dudley shook his head and replied very sincerely, “Not that I’ve heard of. The trap array we set up has never been attacked. Several cultivators who escaped our line of sight attacked the trap array from within the trap array.”

“Jed, bury the bodies and tidy up the surroundings. We will set off to the mountain border once all that is done,” said Fane.

Hearing this, Jed became baffled. He pointed at the bodies on the ground and asked, “Why do I have to be the only one to do the cleaning up?”

Fane chuckled and gazed at him softly, “Because I find you displeasing. You don’t have to do what I say. I just won’t bring you out with me.”

They were strangers, to begin with, and though Fane found Jed to be friendly at first, he soon proved him otherwise. Besides, Fane not only provided them with a place to heal their wounds but also took them out of their predicament. Without him, they would have been long dead.
