Chapter 1555


    Birk was in a meeting with several elders when he suddenly detected a faint trace of mental


    energy sweeping across their sect before disappearing. He was able to sense it even though the


    fluctuation was quite weak and hard to detect.


    “Is that so? I didn’t feel anything?” A middle–aged man frowned, appearing somewhat puzzled.


    An elder who was an alchemy master chimed in with a solemn expression, “I felt it too. The


    person retracted their mental energy in just a moment, but there’s no doubt that someone was


    observing our sect using their mental energy.”


    The great elder clenched his fist in anger and eximed, “This is outrageous! Who would dare to


    do such a thing? Don’t they realize that we’re a secluded sect? How could they just sense our


    location on a whim with their mental energy? It’s a tant act of disrespect!” The great elder


    continued with a request, “Please allow me to teach this intruder a lesson. They shall be made to


    understand that mental energy should never be used for indiscriminate acts.”


    “This is a direct provocation to our sect! We are a formidable sect, and the intruder ought to have.


    known that to begin with. Given our reputation, I am inclined to believe that they were courting


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    danger when they ventured so far as to try and gather information on our sect,” the second elder


    added, clearly agitated.


    “This intruder’s mental energy is very strong, perhaps the both of you should go there together to


    give the person a stern warning. Avoid escting things further if they realize their mistake. After all,


    this isn’t a particrly terrible offense,” Birk suggested after pondering over the


    situation.


    The great elder and the second elder exchanged nces. After nodding in agreement, they swiftly.


    took flight. Not longter, the two elders spotted a group of people on a flying sword up ahead.


    “I am quite certain that the glimmer on that flying sword is a sign that it is a spiritual weapon, and a very


    strong one at that,” the great eldermented with a hint of coveting even though he had


    not identified the individuals yet.


    The second elder wore a mischievous smile as he said, “We should teach them a lesson and have


    them offer the flying sword as an apology gift. They’ll hand it over if they fear for their lives.”


    “Wait a minute… That pretty girl looks familiar. It looks like our hall master’s daughter!” He


    eximed with eyes wide open.

    “I… I think you’re right,” the second elder said.


    The great elder was left speechless. The hall master’s daughter had returned with her friends, and


    given the circumstances, it would be entirely inappropriate for them to snatch the flying sword


    away.


    “Great Elder! Second Elder! Did you twoe out and fetch me after knowing that I’d be returning?


    Sofia’s eyes lit up, and she called out to them.


    The great elder and the second elder exchanged a nce and found themselves somewhat at a loss.


    In the end, the great elder chuckled awkwardly and replied, “Hehe, yes! Your father sensed the


    presence of several people outside and realized that you had returned. He’s currently in a meeting, so


    he sent us toe and wee you.”


    Sofia then began to introduce the elders to Severin and the others I suppose a bit of introduction. is in


    order. This is our great elder, Jeanluc, and this is our second elder, Wyatt. They hold a prominent


    position in our sect and were among the founders when the sect was first established ”


    “And who might this young man be?” Jeanluc asked.
