Chapter 677 He Has Departed

It’s truly bewildering! These people are strange, to say the least. Judging by their behavior, it’s as if this bald man is of monumental importance. But what could his identity be?

Sylvia, with her delicately arched brows resembling willow branches, was lost in contemplation when suddenly, Gary interrupted her thoughts with an apologetic tone, “I’m terribly sorry for the interruption, but there’s something you need to understand.

“Well, you see… Gary hesitated, gathering his thoughts before explaining, “Perhaps you’re not fully aware of Abel’s revered status within our Crimson Sun Sect. He’s the tower guard of the Crimson Sun Tower, a figure whose authority surpasses even that of our sect leader.”

“He was the sole mentor to Emrys, making Emrys his only direct disciple.
