Chapter 1516 ()

Meanwhile, Silas had taken charge of the Mystic Vessel Sect since Jacob and the others had left. It was his first experience in a position of authority, and anxiety gnawed at him.

"Mr. Brandt, there's a young woman outside the sect asking to see Mr. Sullen," one of the disciples reported.

"A young woman?" Silas furrowed his brows and quickly stood up, eager to meet her. He didn't want to keep someone waiting, especially if she was a friend of Jacob's.

As he stepped outside, Silas was struck by the sight of the young woman. Her clothes were shabby, her face pale, and her body bore several wounds.

"Who are you? Why are you looking for Mr. Sullen?" Silas asked, concern creeping into his voice.

"I am Luna, the princess of Supreme Beast Citadel. A group of people is pursuing me," she replied weakly.
