Zander started slapping himself repeatedly.

Beside him, Zeke couldn't help but sigh.

Zander might be an undefeatable man, but his daughter broke through his defenses easily.

Zeke was a father, so he could understand Zander's crazy actions.

After Zander vented his frustrations, Zeke declared, “Oh, it's a pity. Carina waited for years, and Gracie has yet to meet her father, but you will never be able to reunite with them. You wanted to die, right? I'll grant your wish right now.”

“No! Don't do that!!” Zander got to his knees and groveled without hesitation, “Great Marshal, please spare my life! Have mercy on me! I don't want to die. I want to see my daughter. Please let me see my daughter!”

Zeke shook his head. “It's useless to ask me to spare your life. You're the only one who can save yourself now.”

Zander instantly understood what he meant. “Great Marshal, if I agree to obey your orders, you will spare me, right? I can do anything as long as you agree to let me meet my daughter.”

Right this moment, he was no longer a worshipper of Theos.

All he could think about was his daughter, Gracie.

Zeke announced, “Years ago, you made a mistake to protect Carina. It was in self-defense, so it was an understandable mistake to make. If you agree to submit to me and help me wipe out Theos Sect, you can atone for your crime by meritorious actions. How does that sound?”

“What?” Zander raised his head and stared at Zeke in shock. “Great Marshal, your goal is to wipe out the entire Theos Sect?”

“What's wrong with that?” Zeke responded.

Zander took a deep breath. “That's quite hard to achieve. Theos is so much stronger than you can imagine.”

Zeke told him, “When there is a will, there is a way. The soldiers of the North can do anything they want.”

Zander nodded. “Even if I'm not capable enough, I shall help you for the sake of my daughter.”

“Mm. I have a question for you. You were locked up in the military prison back then. How did you manage to escape?” Zeke asked.

The security at the military prison was so tight that even a fly wouldn't be able to fly in and out without getting caught. However, Zander had disappeared without a trace despite being locked up in the prison cell for his crimes. It was the most significant unsolved case back then.

Until now, no one had the answer.

Zander revealed, “Great Marshal, the South Envoy of Theos Sect used a talisman of space to save me from the military prison. When I was locked up and lost all hope, the South Envoy suddenly appeared in my cell. He said I could regain freedom if I became Theos' follower. I had a momentary lapse of judgment and agreed to do so. I ended up making a huge mistake and joined them. There was no turning back then.”

Zeke hummed in revelation.

Back when he first found out that such a thing as a talisman of space existed, he guessed that Zander most probably used one to escape from the military prison.
