Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 4332

"Diego!"

Jedidiah's expression was ashen as he asked Diego, "What happened here? What are you doing here so late at night? Who wounded you this badly? Also, where is Khloris?"

The other sect members' gazes landed intently on Diego. They seemed to be waiting for an answer from him too.

Diego took a deep breath, speaking weakly, "I was out making rounds tonight when I heard a noise from the water dungeon, so I came to see about it. I saw Olive trying to help Khloris escape when I got here!"

Diego's expression was utterly solemn as he spoke, but his chest throbbed with uncertainty.

He could not tell them that he broke into the water dungeon and tried to take advantage of Khloris. He could only lie about it.

"Olive came back?"

Jedidiah frowned lightly. "And she took Khloris with her?"

"Exactly!"

Diego nodded, putting on an expression of shame and anger. "I tried to stop her, but Olive seems to have learned sword skills from somewhere else. She was a nightmare. I was no match for her, and she stabbed me."

What?

Jedidiah's expression shifted as he exclaimed in shock internally.

Olive's skills were not even good enough to be considered average in the Sword Sect. Yet she had just maimed his most skilled follower.

Just as Jedidiah was pondering that, he said, "Master, I think Olive learned her sword skills from that Dart fellow."

That man again.

Jedidiah clenched his fists, trying to hold back the anger in his chest. "Send out orders to hunt for Khloris and Olive. See that they are captured and brought back to me no matter what."

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Sensing Jedidiah's rage, the sect members scrambled to acknowledge the command and hurried out of the water dungeon.

Kendall was clad in a deep red dress; she oozed charm and beauty. Yet she did not look to be in her best state as her skin looked a little pale. She was also in a horrible mood.

Ever since they had set up camp in the manor, Kendall had begun interrogating Skylar on how to incorporate the fiend soul energy. She had asked a good number of times, but Skylar had responded to nothing. He refused to say a single word.

That angered Kendall to no end.

It had been three days, and Kendall could feel the fiend Soul energy had begun to mess her body up slightly. If she did not take care of things once and for all, she might be plagued with endless problems.

A little more than ten elite cultivators stood before Kendall. They bowed their heads nervously.

"Sect Master!"

One of the cultivators stepped forward, bowing to Kendall. "Skylar Blanc refuses to say anything. I don't think we should waste any more time on him."

"I heard that there are many skilled doctors here in the Great East. I could catch a few of them for you. They might be able to help you out."
