The Mans Decree
Chapter 4003

“Ms. Ortiz, would this be too risky? What if-”

Dario was about to argue, but Juliet interrupted him.

“All right, it’s decided. We’ll wait until Axel comes out of Reflection Cliff before we discuss this further. For these few days, pretend that you’re unaware of this matter. Don’t go and pick trouble with Harlan.”

“Understood!” At that, Dario could only obey her.

The crowd who had been gathered all dispersed.

Rohan also left.

Juliet then looked at Dario and said, “Dario, there’s something you’re unaware of. In truth, my father’s madness is gone. He is currently recuperating his spiritual sense. To avoid tipping Harlan off, I didn’t tell anyone. It was me who accidentally triggered the formation. I took Jared with me to see my father. It was to prevent Harlan from becoming suspicious that Axel decided to stay behind alone and take the blame himself. So, for the next few days, let’s steer clear of Harlan first. Once my father fully recovers and comes out, it’ll be pointless even if he manages to activate Divine Flame Mountain forcibly!”

She explained the situation to him, fearing that he wouldn’t be able to resist stopping Harlan.

“So, you went with him, Ms. Ortiz. He is truly tight-lipped. He didn’t even tell me about it. I’ll go with your plan, Ms. Ortiz,” Dario immediately relented with a nod upon learning the reason.

Since then, the entire Violet Flame Sect grew quiet. Gael’s faction acted as if they were unaware without picking trouble with Harlan and his men.

Meanwhile, Harlan patiently waited for Carlo to crack the formation plate and activate Divine Flame Mountain.

As for the elders, he didn’t care what they did so long as they didn’t cause trouble.

As long as he obtained Divine Flame Seal, he would become the true leader of Violet Flame Sect.

At that time, whoever he wanted to leave Violet Flame Sect would have to leave.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

When Jared stepped out of Reflection Cliff, he surprisingly exuded an otherworldly aura about him.

“If it weren’t for me having some other matter to attend to, I’d really love to stay a few more days at this Reflection Cliff!”

He was reluctant to leave Reflection Cliff.

Apart from being able to cultivate True Fire Spiritual body, he could also use the flames on the mountain to temper his body.

Such a golden opportunity was rare to come by.

It appeared that Reflection Cliff was meant to be the place where the founder of Violet Flame Sect imparted his cultivation techniques.

However, the disciples of Violet Flame Sect who came to Reflection Cliff were solely focused on leaving as soon as possible and had to endure great pain, so they didn’t even notice the cultivation techniques on Reflection Cliff.

Had it not been for the reminder from Vermilion Demon Lord, it would have likely been difficult for even Jared to discover the cultivation technique on Reflection Cliff.

Speaking of which, it was quite the coincidence that turned into a blessing in disguise for him.

“Axel, you’re finally out. Are you okay?”

Judd knew that Jared’s time of reflection had ended, so he especially came to fetch him.

“Yes, I’m pretty good. Judd, have you ever been to Reflection Cliff?” Jared asked.

“Of course, all deacon disciples have to undergo tempering at Reflection Cliff when promoted to deacon. How else would I know the terrifying nature of Reflection Cliff? It’s simply no place for a human to be.”

When Judd mentioned Reflection Cliff, it was clear he was extremely averse to it.

“Didn’t you notice anything special about Reflection Cliff, Judd?” Jared asked, looking at him.

“Something special? What could possibly be special about it? Did you discover something, Axel?” Judd asked in curiosity.

“No. It was just a casual question.” Jared smiled, then continued, “Judd, in the past three days I’ve been reflecting, Berthold hasn’t caused any trouble again, has he?”

“No. They aren’t in any mood to cause trouble. Now, Harlan has brought an array master from Duad Formation Sect over. They’re forcibly trying to activate Divine Flame Mountain. Berthold is personally guarding it with some men!” Judd said with a helpless expression.
