Chapter 459
Phoche fell into deep thought after listening to Raylan
After that she suggested. “Since we’re not sure, let’s go to Templum Cirrus to probe around afterward.
“Mr. Falke isn’t that formidable, so the guy who wanted to take your body is either Ximenez Quade or Joel Gomez.
“I also suspect that one of them killed my master. Forall. know, maybe both of them were involved”
Raylan also wanted to know who had set a trap to ftral his holy at Oriar. “Okay. Then are we still going to
to the ancient tomb Or are we putting that
“I don’t mind either way, but I think you still care about the safety of those ordinary people near the ancient tomb” Indeed, Raylan had lived for so many years and had seen so many people depart that he was practically munch in such matters neme
Phoebe could not help but laugh. “I seems like you know me quite well. We’d better ake a look. Those people mean business and will never joke
about such things.
“There is definitely an ancient tomb involved, and one that’s emiting uncontrollable evil energy too. After all, they have to put up a convincing act
Phoebe couldn’t let those innocent people die because of her “Besides, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Let’s go and watch their act. If we join hands, I think we can sull try to take them down“:
Phoebe feltar was too risky for her to fight them alone.
However with Raylan’s help, they could even fight a Carlum Peritum who had perfected the Ascendance Realm
At the very least, they could keep themselves alive.
Besides, she had a backup plan. She had to go there because today was a very special day,
She had to face this tribulation before she could break free and truly embark on a new life.
Raylan smiled. Then let’s go. I’ll risk my life to accompany you today.”
Perhaps it was because of this trait in Phoebe’s personality that he admired and made him want to protect her.
The no of them drove to the ancient tough following the CPS directions
As soon as thary neared the destination, they detected wisps of evil energy spreading out in all directions.
Phoebe poked the small flying snake coiled around her wrist.
The small flying snake was anooring, but it soon starred and its vertical pupils widened. It opened its mouth languidly and began to absorb the surmanding evil energy
If in owner ludn’t poked it to make it work, it wouldn’t have bothered with this tiny bit of evil energy
Phoebe and Baylan got out of the car and went up the mountain.

Chapter 459
After walking for another ten minutes, they arrived at the final resting place of the tomb owner.
When the two walked into the burial chamber, they saw several people lying on the ground. They couldn’t tell whether these guys were dead or alive, but they looked like grave robbers:
Xunenez Quade and three other people were sitting cross–legged on the ground. They were each holding a magical artifact to counter the evil energy that was constantly issuing from the casket.
The condition of the four was not good. They seemed to have been seriously corroded by the evil energy
Xamenez’s face lit up when he saw the two of them. “Hallowed Ancestor, Piorbe, you have arrived”
Raylan nodded vaguely at him. “Yes, wer
were here.
Phoebe went closer to the casket for a look
The line flying make on her wrist was furiously gobbling downs the evil energy that wanted to enter her body.
Ximenez watched as Phoebe paced back and forth near the casket. From time to time, l’hoebe would walk to different positions and stare at him.
He could not help but frown. “Phoebe, come and help us. What are you looking at!”
Phoebe
Phoebe leaned casually against the casket as if she was immune to the evil energy. I want to see how realistic your acting props are
Ximenez was taken aback “What acting props Have you turned stupid because of the evil energy?”
Phoebe gazed at him with an ambiguous expression. The fact that I can show up here unscathed means that your beloved follower’s plan did not succeed
“Since we have already seen through your ruse, why bother to continue with your act?”
She continued, “Besides, I’m an expert in this field. You guys are still somewhat lacking in experience.
“Take, for example, these evil energy orbs in this casket. They looked like quite aged, rare items.
“In order to plot against my senior, it seemed that you guys are willing to spend a lot of money!”
Phoebe had more experience so the moment she entered, she realized that something was wrong with the evil energy
It didn’t feel like evil energy issuing from some old crypt. Instead, the energy seemed to have been gathered from various sources before being released here. Hence, she could guess at once what was inside.
Phoebe couldn’t be bothered to play along with these people, so she exposed their plot outright.
Ximenez was surprised that Phoebe had seen through his scheme as soon as she arrived:
He gazed at her, incredulous yet quizzical
t
It wasn’t that long since they last met. Yet now, he could not read Phoebe’s mind at all.
Raylan walked to Phoebe’s side and looked icily at Ximenez. “Tim already outside Oriar. I am no longer bound by your Authority Token. Therefore, qust acting and just do whatever you want.”
Raylan had met Ximenez nuny times, but he never realized that this guy was such a despicable fellow. To think that Ximenez had schemed againu him for so many years.
Now that both Phoebe and Haydan had spoken, Ximenez suddenly stood up and smiled. “Then I won’t act anymore.
Since he could not deceive the two of them, if he continued. ng, he would only make himself look toolish.
her so much!”
He looked at Raylan and said, “Hallowed Ancestor, how long have you known Phoebe Jenkins! Why do you trust her son
Haylan sud. “Who should I trust if not hert You expect me to trust you guys?”
He then went straight to the point and asked, “Which one of you want my body, you or Joel Gomez?”
Ximenez gave a scontul or “Of course it’s ine.
Jod Gomez has been holed up in Templum Cirrus all darse years and doesn’t dare to interfere in anything. He doesn’t have the guts to plot aganist
He looked at Raylan with greed in his eyes. “Hallowell Ancestor, you’ve already lived for so many years. Surely you have had your fill by now
now! Why don’t you fulfill my wish and let me live a few name years!!
