Lightning Is the Only Way

The Sect Master looked at Gravis with a solemn look.

"Did you expect for me to appear?" she asked calmly.

"Yes," Gravis answered with the Law of Honesty. "I expected for you to arrive."

"And you don't fear me?" she asked.

"No," Gravis answered with the Law of Honesty. "I am not nearly as powerful as you, but I am confident in my ability to escape."

The Sect Master felt Gravis' Law of Honesty. Obviously, he wasn't lying.

Even more, the Sect Master's Will-Aura suppressed Gravis' Will-Aura by a ridiculous degree, which meant that she knew for a fact that he had used the Law of Honesty, and not the Law of Deceit or Lies.

After looking at Gravis for a bit more, she suddenly turned around.

BANG!

The Sect Master slapped the Vice-Sect Master with incredible power, and the Vice-Sect Master shot into the distance, heavily injured.

The other two looked with shock at what had transpired.

BANG!

Then, the Elder was slapped into the distance, also severely injured.

The guard immediately felt a feeling of terror as he looked at what had happened to the other two.

He would be next!

The Sect Master couldn't afford to kill an Elder or a Vice-Sect Master over something like this, but he was only a guard.

The Sect Master looked at the guard. "If you are uncertain about a decision, call your superior before you decide to act for yourself. You will not be awarded any Contribution Points for the next 10,000 years."

The guard became shocked.

She wouldn't attack him?

He would survive?

The guard immediately bowed politely. "I thank the Sect Master for her teachings."
