The Mans Decree
Chapter 4051

“That’s enough. Regardless of whether Harlan decides to trouble us or not, the real issue is that he has now obtained the Divine Flame Seal.” Juliet furrowed her brows.

Harlan had acquired the Divine Flame Seal and was acknowledged as its master.

If the inauguration ceremony commenced, he would truly become Violet Flame Sect’s sect leader.

Even if Juliet’s father had shown up, he wouldn’t have been able to stop it. After all, those were the rules of Violet Flame Sect.

“Should we devise a plan to steal the Divine Flame Seal, then?” an elder suggested.

“No way. Harlan would definitely carry it on him, and he would have people guarding it. Moreover, Carlo from Duad Formation Sect is also present. He can set up an arcane array to protect the Divine Flame Seal. Who among us could possibly break the arcane array?” Dario said.

Upon hearing those words, everyone fell silent. After all, no one possessed such ability.

“It would be great if Jared is here. He could break the arcane array. I wonder how he’s doing now, standing alone against so many from the Ghost Mask Sect. He must be unlikely to be alive” Juliet was reminded of Jared.

At the mention of Jared, Dario was also somewhat worried.

Regardless, Jared had to face the Ghost Mask Sect members alone for the sake of helping them escape.

“Let’s take things one step at a time for now. Everyone should be extra cautious these next few days and try not to provoke any disciples from Harlan’s faction,” Juliet reminded before dismissing everyone.

Two days later, three massive booms echoed above the gate of the Violet Flame Sect.

All disciples from Violet Flame Sect were summoned to the square in front of the main hall. Even the outer circle disciples were exceptionally gathered there.

Following Winston’s announcement, Harlan, dressed in his finest, swiftly made his way to the center of the square. Holding the Divine Flame Seal in his hand, he scanned the area with an excited expression.

At that moment, Harlan was brimming with confidence and vigor.

After demonstrating the Divine Flame Seal, Harlan soared up and took his seat on the throne of the main hall.

From that position, he could overlook the entire expanse of Violet Flame Sect’s square.

All of Violet Flame Sect’s disciples, including Dario and his faction, were kneeling before him.

Winston, following protocol, praised Harlan and recounted the latter’s contributions to Violet Flame Sect.

Dario and the others listened with gritted teeth, yet there was nothing they could do.

“In line with the will of the heavens and the people’s wishes, Mr. Garrido will ascend to the position of the sect leader in accordance with Violet Flame Sect’s traditions. Starting today, Mr. Garrido is Violet Flame Sect’s real sect leader. All disciples must obey his commands. The ceremony commences. All the disciples can begin to extend your congratulations!” Winston announced loudly.

Just as Harlan was blissfully awaiting the congratulations from numerous disciples, an icy voice suddenly echoed. “Hold on. Who acknowledged Harlan as the sect leader?”

At that moment, a figure slowly emerged, continually making their way toward the center of the square.

“Father!”

“Mr. Ortiz!”

Upon seeing the newcomer, both Juliet and Dario were taken aback.

It turned out that Gael had arrived. Many of the disciples were still unaware that Gael had already recovered.

Upon seeing Gael showing up, the disciples from Gael’s faction scrambled up from the ground, cheering incessantly.

When Harlan saw Gael, his expression instantly turned grim. Mr. Ortiz is currently under the demonic soul’s control, so how could he be here? Moreover, it seems he’s no longer affected by the condition and has fully recovered.

“Mr. Ortiz, how come you’re here?” Harlan hastily stood up before politely asking Gael.

“Why am I here? If I don’t show up, you’ll become Violet Flame Sect’s sect leader, won’t you?” Gael scrutinized Harlan with an indifferent expression.

With a furrowed brow, Harlan uttered coldly, “Mr. Ortiz, what do you mean by that? I became the official sect leader after obtaining the Divine Flame Seal and gaining recognition. You’re a bit late. I’m now the leader of the Violet Flame Sect.”
