Chapter 1732 It's You

Eric's lips curved into a smile. "I've been waiting to hear from you. Is it finally time?"

The voice replied, "With the pandemic halted, the Heaven's Resentment Formation remains unactivated. We need to push forward with the plan. Before that, I'll have someone to get rid of that Quinnell girl."

"That sounds good to me. No one will know that the late Mr. Quinell Senior was..." Eric burst into laughter, cutting his own words short. He then hung up the call and headed to his car.

Meanwhile, Wynter was about to leave the café on her superbike when she heard someone clamoring from behind.

"That's her, Mr. Stavius! She's the one claiming that Mt. Dragon is ruined!"

Kaspar looked straight ahead but failed to recognize Wynter with her back to him. "Who are you? Which sect do you belong to? Why did you slander Mt. Dragon?" he demanded.

As Wynter slowly turned around, the words died on his lips.

"W-Wynter Quinnell? You brat! Have you confused her with someone else?" Kaspar slapped Cornelius sharply before hopping toward Wynter, eager to hear why she was in Colifernia. Wynter answered, "I'm here on business. What about you?"

"This brat told me that Mt. Dragon was being slandered for our poor courtesy and that we'd be gone soon. So, I rushed here to deal with it," Kaspar stated as he beckoned Cornelius over.

Upon seeing Kaspar's friendly demeanor toward Wynter, Cornelius was left confused and unsettled. "I must be mistaken, Mr. Stavius. She's not the one. Let's go find the real slanderer."

Yet, Wynter fixed him with a piercing glance and a dangerous smirk. "Did you tell Mr. Stavius that someone has slandered Mt. Dragon? It seems like your mouth only runs with nonsense. You've let the praises in Colifernia go to your head. Well, let me teach you a lesson on Mr. Stavius' behalf."

She moved in a flash as the silver needle shot out. Kaspar watched by the side, as if it was of no concern to him.

In truth, Wynter had no intention of seriously harming Cornelius. She could tell he had potential but had squandered it. After being hailed as the Colifernia Chamber of Commerce's esteemed guest, he had grown arrogant and viewed others with disdain.

It was the perfect timing-she had free time, and he showed up right when she needed to let off some steam.

"Save me, Mr. Stavius! A disciple of your lineage is about to die!" Cornelius cried.

Kaspar replied coolly, "Oh, don't worry about that. Even without you, I have plenty more disciples in my lineage."

Hearing that, Cornelius could only cover his head as he struggled to dodge Wynter's deadly strikes.

Kaspar silently chastised Cornelius for provoking her. After all, he had once nearly sought her mentorship.

Suddenly, Kaspar recalled his dissipating energy, and his gentle gaze turned into a vicious glare. "Don't tell me you were the one who offended her, causing half of Mt. Dragon's heavenly energy to be lost and our signboard to tilt! You foolish disciple!"

With that, Kaspar joined the fray. With nowhere to escape, Cornelius was kicked from all sides as though he were a soccer ball.

After some time, Wynter and Kaspar were exhausted from the skirmish and took a seat on a nearby bench, leaving Cornelius sprawled on the ground. Wynter took a sip of her water before inquiring about Kaspar's purpose for being in Colifernia.

"I was on my way to Hawford when I sensed half of the heavenly energy from Mt. Dragon had vanished. I traced the cause to Colifernia, so I hurried over. However, I was soon informed that Mr. Winston Senior had appeared in the city," Kaspar stated sternly.
