The sound of metal nging just a moment ago had to be a fight between the Dragonyer Sword and
the other spiritual swords in the tomb of swords.
At that thought, Jared decided to visit the tomb of swords after saving Anne.
Keeping the Dragonyer Sword in its sheath, Jared asked Andrew to lead the way. The men began
traveling down the path in a straight line.
Before long, the path cleared into a spacious ce. Jared and the rest found themselves in a brightly
illuminated ce with many men in ck walking around.
Yet, no one paid any attention to their unexpected guests.
An altar made out of crystals stood proudly in the center, glowing with a bright light. A person was tied to
the pole in the middle of the altar. The person was none other than Anne herself.
Right above the altar was a round hole facing the sky. The soft beams of the moon in the night sky shone
into the hole and onto Anne''s body like a spotlight.
“Princess Anne is up there,” Andrew informed Jared.
Murderous intent rose within Jared as heid eyes on Anne''s bound body.
The murderous intent instantly engulfed the ancient ruins.
Sensing the presence of intruders, Alex hurried to the entrance.
When he saw that Andrew had brought in intruders with Omar tailing behind them, his wrath was
aroused.
“Andrew, how dare you bring people in here? Do you still value the lives of your wife and child?” Alex
thundered.
Remaining silent, Andrew merely responded by lowering his head.
Upon seeing that Andrew did not n to speak, Alex turned his attention to Omar. “Omar, I asked you to
stop them outside. How did they get in here?”
“Mr. Alex, my strength was futile against them. It was impossible for me to stand in their way,” Omar
answered truthfully.
“Hmph! You did it on purpose, didn''t you? You''re telling me you can''t even fight a blind man?”
In Alex''s eyes, Joel was the strongest among all, but even Joel was no match for Omar.
Alex did not even consider the significance of Jared and his team.
“You traitor! How dare you build the altar without permission to release the demons? Today, I shall
cleanse ming Sect of traitors like you!”
As Joel spoke, his aura began to rise as the bronze handbell in his hand started shaking non-stop.
Upon seeing that, Alex merely scoffed. “You? A blind man? Trying to kill me? In your dreams!”
Alex took out a long sword and swung it skillfully. Countless beams of light shot toward Joel.
Instead of dodging, Joel shook the bronze handbell with as much might as he could muster. Sound wave
after sound wave collided with the beams of light.
The ground of the ancient ruins shook.

The two forces collided continuously before the energy spread across the entire area.
Joel felt himself losing his footing amidst the impact and stumbled backward. A metallic taste filled his
throat as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Joel had been ambushed and was already injured before they arrived at the altar. It was no surprise that
he was at a disadvantage.
“Hmph! Look at how powerless you are! Looks like it''s time for someone else to take over your role as
the leader! Since you guys are here, I might as well use your fresh blood as a sacrifice to the demons!”
With a cold sneer, Alex motioned for his subordinates to take action. “Surround them and keep an eye on
them. No one is to escape!”
Dozens of men in ck immediately surrounded Jared and the others, but no oneid a hand on them.
Alex, on the other hand, had turned his attention to the altar. As he lifted his eyes, he saw that the moon
was already hovering directly above the round hole.
The entire altar basked in the moon''s soft glow and began to shine. Beams of light weaved around the
altar, making it seem as though the moon was charging the altar.
“It''s time!”
A look of exhration sparkled in Alex''s eyes as he sprinted toward the altar.
“Stop him! We can''t let him seed. If the demons are summoned, everyone will die!” Joel screamed in
desperation, hoping that Jared and his team could stop Alex.
