After speaking to Lilian, Gilmore answered Maria’s call.
Hello, Maria. Did you call because you’re in trouble?” Gilmore asked as he picked up the phone.
Silence greeted him from the other end.
Anyone else might’ve thought the call got disconnected.
But Gilmore knew that wasn’t the case.
“Maria Gilmore prodded gently, “tell me, what happened?”
After a moment, Maria’s voice, tinged with a hint of tears, and said. “Mr. Reed, I’m indeed in danger.
“Actually, the whole of Secret Sect is facing a grave threat.”
Gilmore calmly said, “Well, tell me about the crisis you and your Secret Sect are in.”
“Mr. Reed, holy sect master of ce sent ten Guardians to lead three thousand cultivation
martialists to attack the Secret Sect two days after you left.”
Through the phone, Maria rted the events.
It turned out that less than two days after Gilmore and the others left the Snowenian Secret Sect,
the holy sect master had sent out the ten Guardians and three thousand cultivation martialists to
wipe out the Secret Sect.
Kean and thousands of Secret Sect martialists stood no chance against these cultivation
martialists.
During the attack, hundreds of Secret Sect masters perished. Kean, Maria, and the remaining
survivors of Secret Sect were taken prisoner by the ten Guardians and were transported back to
ce’s Holy Realm.
Maria whispered into the phone, “Mr. Reed, I didn’t call to ask you to save me.
I wanted to say thank you onest time. You saved my life once, and I’ll never forget that. If I can’t
repay you in this life. TIL make sure to do so in the next?
Maria’s voice broke, revealing her despair. “Mr. Reed, you need to leave ce immediately. If you
don’t, you might get caught. The holy sect masters are looking for you.
Gilmore understood what she was implying. Maria had called to warn him, having made peace with
her imminent fate
Before she died, she called Gilmore and asked him to escape from ce as soon as possible so
that he would not fall into the hands of the holy sect master and be in danger.
Gilmore was touched
Who would have thought Gilmore used. That saving Maria and her father back in Snowenia would
lead to her being so intent on repaying his kindness
Exeath the face of danger, her first thought was to urge Gilmore to escape the perilous ce.
Speaking on the phone, Calore told her, Maria, do you remember what I told you back then?
*If you ever find yoursell in danger, just give me a call. Even if it personallye to your rescue. I’ll

“No. Mr. Reed. You can’te. The influence of the holy sect master is too terrifying. In Holy
Realm, there are hundreds of thousands of cultivators, all of whom are loyal and obeying the holy
sect master.
On the phone. Maria anxiously tried to dissuade Gilmore.
“If youe to the Holy Realm, you will die!”
Gilmore said calmly over the phone, “Maria, I can save you even if there were tens of millions of
people in the Holy Realm, let alone hundreds of thousands.
Maria was speechless.
There was a moment of stunned silence from Maria. Finally, she hesitantly asked, “Mr. Reed, can
you truly defeat the thousands of cultivation martialists under the holy sect master’smand?”
“Absolutely Gilmore said.
Curiosity colored Maria’s voice as she said, “Mr. Reed, how do you n to extract us from these
countless cultivation martialists under the holy sect mastermand?”
Gilmore simply said. Tll march right into the Holy Realm and defeat all the cultivators who tries to
stop me.” Maria was speechless.
If it were anyone else making such ims, she might’ve dismissed them as mere boasting.
But Maria had witnessed Gilmore’s abilities firsthand.
She didn’t doubt Gilmore’s capabilities;
Moreover, Gilmore was not the kind of person who liked to brag
“I’ll wait for you to save me then,” Maria finally said, her voice gentle yet slightly shy.
Gilmore could sense the joy in Maria’s heart at the mere thought of himing to her rescue.
“Don’t worry.” Gilmore said soothingly into the phone. “You, your father, and all the other Secret
Sect martialists, will be safe. 1 promise to get all of you out.”
“Mr. Reed, Im held in a suite within the selection pce, but my father and the others from the
Secret Sect are elsewhere. Can I get word to them”
Maria said awkwardly.
Thats alright, once I’m in the Holy Realm. I’ll rescue your father and everyone from Secret Sect.”
One more thing. Mr. Reed, Maria said suddenly
“What is it?” Gilmore asked
“Alter I was captured and brought to the Holy Realm, the holy se master announced he would marry
with ten other women from Snowenta Tin to be his thurich wite

When Maria had called, he had employed his God’s Eye to see all that was happening to Maria and
the others from the
Secret Sert
He also knew that after she and the people of the Secret Sect had been captured in Holy Realm,
the Holy Sect Master wanted to marry her as one of the madams.
Determination filled his voice as Gilmore said, “As long as I’m here, the holy sect master won’t be
marrying you
A heavy silence ensued on the other end.
Though quiet, Gilmore could sense a shift in Maria’s emotions.
Instead of sorrow, it seemed she was deeply touched and momentarily at a loss for words.
Sure enough, after a while, Maria’s sweet voice came from the other end of the phone. “Thank you,
Mr. Reed. I’ll hang up
first.
Gilmore nodded and said, “Yes”
Maria ended the call quickly.
Gilmore also hung up the phone.
As Gilmore hung up, he noticed Lilian, ire, who had taken a seat nearby, Christine, and the
others, all looking at him expectantly.
Lilian asked, “Gilmore, what’s happened to Ms. Gould?”
From Gilmore’s conversation, Lilian had pieced together some details but sought confirmation.
Gilmore then recounted everything that had transpired with Maria and the Secret Sect to Lilian and
thepanions. After hearing those words, they were also very surprised.
They hadn’t expected such a disaster to befall the Snowenian Secret Sect within a few days of their
departure from the Snowenia
It was really hard to believe.
ire looked at Gilmore and asked, “Then, Gilmore, how are we going to save Ms. Gould and the
people of the Secret Sect?” Gilmore, ever calm, replied, “ire, rest assured, I’ll get them ou”
