Chapter 4016 Laid Siege
Levi sat at the main table without hesitation while Larissa and Cheriette sat on either side
of him. “A banquet isn’t complete without some entertainment. Get Pristine here to play
the harp for us,” Sylvan said to his subordinate.
The latter promptly left the main hall, and it didn’t take long before a young woman in a
white dress entered with a harp.
“Greetings, Mr. Garrison and Mr. Webber. My name is Pristine,” she said, her voice so
sweet and gentle that it brought a smile to everyone’s faces.
“Mr. Garrison, Pristine is Prime Association’s top musician, and she’s excellent at playing
the harp. I hope you’ll enjoy her performance,” Sylvan remarked, still grinning from ear to
ear. Levi merely nodded and snuck a glance at the harpist.
Wow. Pristine is indeed gorgeous. Cheriette and Larissa are undoubtedly stunning
beauties, but not even they can measure up to her. Could Sylvan be planning to have her
seduce me?
After a while, Pristine began playing the harp, filling the hall with hauntingly beautiful
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmusic. Not only was it melodious, but it also had a calming effect on everyone’s moods.
Needless to say, the group enjoyed their meal thoroughly, and Sylvan had also made it a
point to avoid bringing up the topic of the Cordierite Association.
As it turned out, Sylvan had invited Levi to Immortal Manor on the order of Prime
Association’s headquarters.
When they first learned about Cordierite Association’s army, Prime Association
immediately buckled down and discussed the best countermeasures.
In the end, they all decided that they should secretly protect Levi.
However, Sylvan was aware of temperament and knew there was no way he could share
the plan with the latter directly.
Thus, a better alternative would be to lure him away with an invitation to Immortal Manor.
Besides, as long as Sylvan sounded sincere enough, the plan wouldn’t arouse suspicions.
In reality, Immortal Manor was a secret base built by Prime Association’s headquarters and
used primarily by members who desperately needed a hiding place.
Therefore, Sylvan wasn’t lying when he said Levi was the first person in thirty years to be
invited.
On top of that, the real purpose of Immortal Manor’s Energy Gathering Array was to cut off
all contact with the outside world.
Even if powerful cultivators were to arrive in Lightspring, both parties wouldn’t be able to
sense each other’s energy fluctuations.
“You guys can stay here and cultivate for the time being, Mr. Garrison. After all, you have
to be in your best condition for the battle,” Sylvan suggested. “As for myself, I have to get
Prime Association’s fighters to set up a defensive formation, so I’m afraid I won’t be able
to accompany you for the next few days.”
Levi nodded. Yes. That’s how Sylvan should be reacting to the upcoming battle! In any
case, Immortal Manor does have plenty of spiritual energy, which makes it the perfect
place to cultivate. There’s no reason for me to turn his offer down.
Realizing that Levi still hadn’t suspected a thing, Sylvan quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
He continued chatting with the former for a while before finally taking his leave.
Just like that, Levi, Larissa, Cheriette, and Thunder Qilin remained in Immortal Manor.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe happiest one of them all was none other than Thunder Qilin. It had made itself at
home and was having the time of its life flying and prancing about.
As soon as Sylvan left Immortal Manor, he began preparing for the battle.
Although it had already been decided that they’d initiate negotiations with Cordierite
Association, it was still necessary to prepare for the worst. After all, if the talks fell
through, Prime Association would have no choice but to take the alliance on.
Well, our plan’s off to a good start. I’ve completed my first mission, and Prime
Association’s fighters are currently on their way to Lightspring. Since Levi has been
appeased, I can rest easy knowing that he wouldn’t be able to leave Immortal Manor
unless I activate the switch.
Meanwhile, everyone in Astre Lune Sect had fallen into a state of panic.
Levi and the others had left the headquarters, so only a handful of Prime Association’s
fighters stepped forward to assist with their defense.
With Cordierite Association once again assembling such a formidable army, Astre Lune
Sect knew they wouldn’t stand a chance if they got attacked.
Unsurprisingly, the stress got to Quirina, and she could neither eat nor sleep well. What
terrified her the most, however, was how she hadn’t gotten a response from Levi. She had
sent him several texts, so why hadn’t he replied?
