Chapter 5389
A smile formed on the man's face. Then, he said, "Of course, I have a lot of information
about them. However, can you afford to pay for it?"
James immediately summoned a few rare treasures and pushed them to the man without
hesitation.
"Is this enough?" asked James.
"A Celestial Averile?!" the man exclaimed, evidently intrigued by one of the materials. His
carefree attitude immediately vanished, and he said respectfully, Tm Xoel Marblemaw, the
person in charge of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion in the Flammaes' territory. May I ask for
your names?"
James replied, "I'm Forty-nine. This is my senior, Qiya.”
"Oh, so you're Forty-nine?" Xoel scanned James and said," You're the person who won
countless cultivation resources from the Yefteros' arena some time ago, right? It's a
pleasure to meet you in person."
As the person in charge of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion in the Flammaes’ territory, it was
only natural that Xoel had heard about Forty-nine. He also knew Forty-nine was from the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCentral Plane and was an elder at the Dieux Academy.
"Yeah." James nodded lightly.
Xoel said with a smile, 'You're trying to gain information
about the Flammaes because of the Taeytons, right?"
James looked at him and asked, "Do the two have some kind of grudge against each
other?"
"Hold on. I’ll go retrieve the information."
After speaking, Xoel left the hall. A few moments later, he returned with an ancient scroll.
He rolled the scroll open and said, "Many years ago, before Latrusse became the Taeytons
' leader, he had gone on an adventure. While wandering the wild, he met with the
Flammae's Saintess. The two fell in love and became partners.
"Unfortunately, their relationship was discovered by the Flammae, and she was forcibly
brought back. The Flammae have a rule that their Saintess must remain a virgin.
However, she broke the rule and was detained in their forbidden area."
Xoel briefly explained the series of events.
"After the Flammae's Saintess was detained, Lactrusse worked hard to become the
Taeytons' Leader. He visited the Flammae many times, wanting to save his lover. However,
his request was always met with rejection.
"Eventually, the Flammae made a condition for him to take their Saintess. They agreed to
stop interfering with their relationship if he can break into their holy site and leave with
her."
"I see," James replied.
Xoel continued, saying, "The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion knows Latrusse had been
searching the Glacies' ruins to find the Ice Sword, which can suppress the Flammae. His
whereabouts have been unknown after he appeared with you at the Yefteros' territory."
He told him everything the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion knew about Latrusse. Then, he
looked at James and asked, "What else do you want to know?"
James replied, "I want to know about the Flammae's situation. Has Latrusse shown up in
the Flammaes' territory yet?"
Xoel replied, "There’s not much movement in the Flammae’s territory right now, so he
probably hasn’t come yet. Speaking of which..."
Suddenly, Xoel asked, "You were with Latrusse, right? Did he get the Ice Sword yet? From
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmour intel, we know the Ice Sword is with the Glacies’ princess. However, the princess’s
whereabouts are unknown. We learned she had appeared in the Glaciem Holy Land very
recently.
"She was accompanied by a man who claimed to be a disciple of Theognostos. He fought
with a few of the powerhouses of the Four Ancient Race, including the Yefteros' Saint.
"Some time ago, you had two powerhouses at the Holy Celestial Rank accompanying you,
right? Was Latrusse one of them? Did you have anything to do with the incident at the
Glaciem Holy Land?"
Xoel looked at James, waiting for his answer.
The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion's intelligence network was indeed terrifying. With just a few
clues, they managed to connect the dots. They suspected the incident at the Glaciem Holy
Land was related to James because Latrusse was trying to find the Ice Sword. On top of
that, James had two powerhouses at the Holy Celestial Rank accompanying him. After
putting two and two together, they hit the nail right on the head.
If the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion could have made such a guess, it was only natural the
Yefteros had the same suspicion. However, nobody could be sure.
James replied calmly, 'What does it have to do with me? I parted with them a long time
ago."
