Chapter 548

Hundreds of martialists of the Phoenix Sect hurried to the courtyard in front of the attic.

They were first shocked to see three presbyters lying unconscious and severely injured in the courtyard, then they spotted Cedric, whose face was bruised and swollen, along with Wyatt, Isaac, and Theodore–the four young masters.

Their mouths were tinged with blood, clearly indicating they had been hurt.

The swollen bruises on their faces were particularly telling.

This sight greatly astonished all the Phoenix Sect martialists who had rushed to the courtyard.

They had never seen anyone dare to beat Cedric and his companions to such a state.

The only suspects were undoubtedly Gilmore, Emma, Christine, Yolanda, and Daphne, as they were the only outsiders present.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

In an instart, many skilled fighters formed a semi–circle around Gilmore and his companions, ready to confront them.

After all, seeing their young master beaten, the Phoenix Sect’s martialists were naturally not going to let the assailant, Gilmore, off easily.

However, Cedric, seeing his men surrounding Gilmore, shouted angrily at them, “What are you doing? Stand down, all of your

Hearing Cedric’s stern command, the faces of the Phoenix Sect martialists, both those surrounding Gilmore and those who were not, registered surprise.

Could they have heard that right?

Was their young master, Cedric, asking them to back off?

But Gilmore and his companions were clearly the prime suspects in causing the injuries to Cedric and the others.

Knowing Cedric’s usual temperament, if someone crossed him even slightly, he would retaliate tenfold.

Now, the young master, Cedric, was actually ordering his men to stand down.

It clearly seemed as though he didn’t dare to provoke Gilmore.

To the martialists of the Phoenix Sect, this was unbelievable.

But when the young master commanded, the Phoenix Sect martialists dared not disobey.

They acknowledged the order and promptly stepped aside.
