Chapter 560

Cedric, upon seeing Leland and Darius, didn’t show much surprise.

He had recognized Leland and Darius earlier when he heard the coughs emanating from the forest.

Little did he expect that these two were secretly tailing him.

They were the ones Gilmore trusted the most..

So the discovery of being tailed by Leland and Darius left Cedric visibly shaken.

However, he was no naive individual, and he quickly regained his composure.

He gazed at the two of them in front of the cabin and inquired. “Mr. Gardper and Mr. Abbott, I didn’t expect that you all came here too,

“What brings you here in the dead of night to the rear mountainside?”

Leland grinned and retorted. “That’s a question you should be asking yourself, Mr. Lopez.”

Cedric maintained a nonchalant expression and replied, “Me! I came to my birdcage to check on my pigeons,

“Let me be frank with you, Vice Sect Masters. I don’t have many hobbies, but raising pigeons happens to be one of my greatest pleasures.”

Leland wore a mocking expression and said, “Raising pigeons? How come it seems like someone wants to release carrier pigeons to send secret messages to certain individuals!”

Cedric’s face feigned surprise as he responded, “Sending secret messages to certain individuals? Mr. Gardner, what exactly are you insinuating?”

Darius, unable to tolerate this charade any longer, cut in. “Mr. Lopez, you needn’t pretend to be oblivious.

“You just released dozens of carrier pigeons. Wasn’t it to send secret messages to the Dragonspire Mountains major sects”

Cedric immediately protested. “Mr. Abbott, you’ve got it all wrong.

“I was genuinely releasing my pigeons. These pigeons I raise come from exotic lands, very different from the usual carrier pigeons in Eldoria.

“They are known as night pigeons, creatures of the night. I just released them to hunt for food.

“Vice Sect Masters, I never thought you would both mistakenly believe I was sending secret messages to the Dragonspire Mountains‘ major sects.”

Leland and Darius remained unfazed by his explanation.

Night pigeons?

Creatures of the night?

Just released them to hunt for food?

Deland and Darius weren’t toddlers, so how would they fall for Cedric’s nonsense?

Leland responded coldly, “Cedric, you claim you’re not sending secret messages to the Dragonspire Mountains‘ major sects, right? Very well, you can explain that to Mr. Reed when we meet him.”
