The sky had turned dark. The sunny weather had turned into rapturous thunder and lightning, and it started to rain
heavily. It was a reflection of Darryl’s mood then.
A few minutes later, the soldiers pushed Megan into the huge pit and buried her.
However, Ambrose did not stop there. Instead, he instructed them coldly, “Watch the pit for two hours. Make sure
she does not escape from it, and only then shall you leave.”
Even though Ambrose had buried Megan alive, his anger was still not relieved. He had to make sure that Megan did
not survive the burial; he would only be satisfied then.
“Yes, Your Highness!”
The soldiers quickly responded and surrounded the pit in a circle and guard it silently.
What?
Darryl shuddered; he was almost in tears.
Ambrose was too cruel; he would only let things go when he was sure that Megan was dead.
Ambrose did not bother to say anything else. Instead, he turned and walked into the main hall. He sat on the throne
and waited in silence. He did not even look at Darryl and the other Emei disciples, who were in the heavy rain.
Sloan and Eira followed him into the main hall. Their expressions were complicated.
Eira wanted to plead with her brother to bring Darryl into the main hall to get shelter. After all, her father was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtinjured. If he caught a cold, would that not be worse for him? However, she did not dare to open her mouth when
she saw Ambrose’s indifference.
Pitter-patter!
The cold raindrops hit Darryl’s face outside the main hall—it was as chilly as his mood.
Darryl bore through the cold as he looked at the covered-up pit closely—he looked hopeful. He also prayed in his
heart.
‘Megan, even though you killed Adina ten years ago, you have decided to turn over a new leaf. I hope that you can
get through this.’
However, he knew that it was impossible. Megan had been buried alive, and soldiers continued to guard the pit. She
could not escape her fate even if she could escape her fate.
Even if she were alive at that moment, she would have to hold her breath for almost two hours. Even if she had
exceptional skills, she would not be able to hold on for so long. She would have suffocated to death!
One minute…
Two minutes…
Soon, the two hours were up, and the covered pit had no movements. It was apparent that Megan could not have
survived it.
“Master…”
“Woo, woo…”
The Emei disciples sobbed again. Every one of them looked gloomy; they were in despair.
Even though Megan was vicious and had a strong character, she developed and helped Emei grow stronger over
the years. At that moment, there was no suitable successor after her death. The Emei Sect would surely fall.
“Your highness!”
A soldier quickly walked into the main hall and said respectfully, “Two hours have passed, and there is no movement
in the pit. Megan should have suffocated to death by now.”
Hmm!
Ambrose smiled; he nodded and stood up.
“Good, good! Since this evil woman has died, let’s make preparations to go home. Take those Emei disciples with us
to the Royal City to be judged and punished.”
Megan had done so many evil deeds all those years, but she did not do it alone—her Emei disciples were her
accomplices. Therefore, even if she had died, the rest of the disciples would not be able to escape their
wrongdoings either.
“Yes, Your Highness.” The soldiers immediately gathered all the Emei Sect’s disciples and were about to lead them
down the mountain.
“One more thing!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAmbrose turned to look at Debra, who stood nearby, and said coldly, “Take this woman too.”
Woola!
A few soldiers walked forward and tied Debra up.
Debra was still disappointed that Donoghue had left her behind. She could barely react in time. Soon, her limbs
were bound.
“What are you doing? Let me go.” Debra shuddered. Her exquisite face was full of rage and surprise.
She had nothing to do with the Emei Sect; why was she captured?
“Ambrose?”
Darryl’s expressions changed as well. He yelled hoarsely, “She had nothing to do with Megan; don’t harm the
innocent.”
Darryl’s face looked extremely anxious.
He understood that Ambrose wanted to deal with Megan, but he should not hurt Debra.
“Innocent?”
Ambrose sneered as he looked at Darryl. He said, “Darryl, I know she is Debra Gable, and I also know that he is
your woman.”
Then, Ambrose’s tone turned icy-cold. “She is also the Artemis Sect’s Sect Master. She is not any ordinary person,
soI cannot let her go so easily.”
“You—”
Darryl’s expression was bitter. He opened his mouth to speak, but he had no words.
