A Man Like None Other

On the other hand, Harlan, holding the Divine Flame Seal, wore a smug expression.

“I’m holding the Divine Flame Seal in my hand, yet you dare to act recklessly. How ignorant!” Harlan sneered.

Dario and Juliet were infuriated beyond measure in his heart, yet there was nothing they could do.

At that moment, an elder under Harlan’s faction bellowed at Juliet and her group, “Mr. Garrido has issued an order, yet you’re not on your knees. Are you planning to get expelled from Violet Flame Sect?”

Left with no choice, Dario and Juliet exchanged a glance before kneeling, too.

After the two of them knelt, the other disciples followed suit.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Now that Harlan had obtained the Divine Flame Seal and was recognized as its master, that signified Harlan was no longer the acting sect leader but the real sect leader.

If Dario and Juliet hadn’t knelt, Harlan had every right to expel them all from the sect according to the Violet Flame Sect’s rules.

Upon seeing Dario and Juliet submit, Harlan immediately burst into exhilarated laughter.

“Hahaha! Let’s return to the Violet Flame Sect and prepare for the official inauguration!” With a hearty laugh, Harlan, holding the Divine Flame Seal, strolled leisurely past the kneeling crowd.

Subsequently, Dario and the others began their journey back to Violet Flame Sect.

However, the disciples of Gael’s faction felt heavy-hearted. Now that Harlan had obtained the Divine Flame Seal and became the genuine sect leader, they were certain their days of peace were over.

However, after returning to the Violet Flame Sect, Harlan did not seek out Dario and the others for trouble. It was unclear if he was too preoccupied with affairs of the inauguration, leaving him no time to bother with them.

“Alas. We’re done for now. I wonder how Jared is doing.” Carla had been worried about Jared for several days, with no news or updates about the latter.

“I reckon Jared is unlikely to be alive. Your Ghost Mask Sect is too powerful. With so many people targeting him, he won’t be able to get away.” Judd had long believed that Jared was already dead.

After all, even though Jared was formidable, there was no way he could escape when faced with so many people from Ghost Mask Sect.

“Judd, how could you possibly curse Jared? I believe he’s definitely going to be fine.” Upon hearing Judd’s words, Carla was somewhat displeased.

Many other disciples were also discussing Jared, uncertain if he was still alive.

Inside the room, Dario gathered several other

elders in Gael’s faction to discuss strategies with Juliet.

Now, Harlan had obtained the Divine Flame Seal, holding immense power. Certainly, those of them from Gael’s faction would face retaliation and suppression.

“Alas. Now that Harlan is in power and has obtained the Divine Flame Seal, I’m afraid we won’t have any good days ahead.” An elder sighed heavily as he spoke.

“If this Harlan dares to retaliate against us, we’ll fight to the bitter end.” Dario clenched his teeth, speaking in a tone filled with resentment.

He would rather die than ever yield to Harlan.

Dario was known for his avarice, yet he was still reliable in matters of great importance.

“Let’s not be too impulsive, everyone. For now, Harlan hasn’t shown any unusual actions toward us. Let’s sit back and watch how things unfold,” Juliet said to the others.

Now that Harlan had obtained the Divine Fire Command, his power had significantly increased. They were simply no match for members from Harlan’s faction.

“I notice Harlan has been busy preparing for the inauguration. I suspect he might make a move against us during the event,” Dario said.

He never dared to hope that Harlan would let them off the hook as if nothing had ever happened.

“Perhaps Harlan places the importance of Violet Flame Sect first and chooses to hold back. After all, there are quite a number of us,” an elder suggested.

“Hmph! He would place the masses first? He dared to collaborate with Ghost Mask Sect, so what’s with this talk about placing the importance of Violet Flame Sect first?” Dario scoffed.

He didn’t believe for a second that Harlan would consider Violet Flame Sect’s greater good.
