Chapter 4463 Suspine Pearson
Meanwhile, Judith cautiously made her way up Mount Gonagles, her focus unwavering as she searched for the
elusive Myocyte Grass.
It was the only remedy capable of healing Kai's scarred face, a burn that had marred him deeply.
Like many, Judith held a soft spot for beauty, and her determination reflected her care for Kai.
Suddenly, the stillness of the mountain was disrupted by the sound of approaching figures.
Alerted, Judith’s expression tightened, her senses sharp. She immediately drew her magic sword, her grip firm as
she prepared for whatever threat might emerge.
The tension eased slightly as the figures cinto view. Judith’s anxiety melted into surprise, then delight.
“Suspine?” she called out, recognizing the middle-aged man leading the group.

Judith quickly sheathed her sword. These weren't strangers but members of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect. At
their helm was Suspine Pearson, her senior.
The figures approached her.
“Who are you?” Suspine asked, his gaze narrowing as if struggling to place her.
“Suspine, it's me,” Judith replied eagerly, removing the mask that had concealed her identity.
Despite the scar on her face, her features were still unmistakable.
“Judith?” he murmured.
Suspine’s reaction was not the warmth she expected. His face showed surprise, and behind his eyes, a flicker of
something less reassuring—panic.
Judith, undeterred by his lackluster reception, pressed forward. “Suspine, | can’t believe you're still alive. |
thought the Ten Thousand Sword Sect was gone. How's Master? Does this mean he survived too?”
At her questions, Suspine shook his head solemnly. “Master passed in battle long ago. Only a few of us remain
from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.”
“How did you escape? And what happened to your face?” he added, his voice laced with concern.
“Master entrustedwith the secret scroll documentation device of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and helped
Sea, but... | was gravely injured in the process. That's how | ended up like this.”
At the mention of the documentation device, Suspine’s expression subtly shifted. “The secret scroll
documentation device?” he echoed, his voice dropping to a whisper. “No wonder | couldn't find it at the sect.”
“What was that?” Judith asked, catching his muttered words.
“Nothing,” Suspine quickly replied with a forced smile. “Judith, do you still have it with you? If you do, it’s vital for
reviving the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.”

Judith frowned slightly. “Suspine, you know as well as | do that the secret scroll documentation device is not to
be shown to anyone. That's a law of our sect.”
“Of course, | know that,” Suspine said hastily, his tone conciliatory. “I was only asking to make sure it’s safe. As
long as it’s secure, we can rebuild the sect together.”
Though his words were placating, Judith couldn’t ignore the unease stirring within her. Something about
Suspine’s demeanor set her on edge.
“How did you and the others escape?” she asked pointedly.
“We slipped away during the chaos and found a place to hide,” Suspine replied smoothly. “That's how we
avoided the fate that befell the others.”
“And what brings you to Mount Gonagles?” Judith pressed further.
“The strange phenomenon here caught our attention. We thought we'd try our luck in finding resources or
magical items. The sect is in dire straits, and we need to do whatever we can to survive,” Suspine explained.
“But what about you, junior sister? This place is far from Castenada Town. Why are you here?”
