Chapter 953 Abetting Evil

The five guardians were collectively stunned by the sight of the white wolf bursting out into the open, as they had

not expected to encounter such a formidable and ferocious beast there.

“Who are you people?” demanded Rayleigh with a questioning frown.

He could sense a certain familiarity about those five individuals’ auras, but he was unable to figure out exactly who

they might be there and then. With his powers now utterly depleted after transferring them onto Josephine and

Lizbeth in their entirety, he was not able to activate his spiritual sense to process a probe either.

“Rayleigh Deragon?” one of the five suddenly blurted, and after he did, he reflexively put a hand to his mouth as

though he had misspoken.

Rayleigh’s eyes lit up as that clued him in straightaway. Hence, he said, “So, the guardians from the Deragons have

arrived. No wonder your auras seemed so familiar.”

 

Seeing that their cover had been blown, the five guardians thus made no further attempt to withhold their identities

and proceeded to unmask themselves.

Enoch, the leader of the group, met Rayleigh’s gaze. “Your aura has vanished, Rayleigh. What happened to your

powers?”

 

“Gone. As of now, I am just an ordinary man,” replied Rayleigh with a faint smile.

Rayleigh’s casual demeanor astonished the guardians, for the ease with which he approached the loss of those

skills that he had so painstakingly cultivated was not something that most would be able to muster.

“Tell us, Rayleigh. Why did you choose to betray Mr. Deragon back then? Just look at what you’ve brought upon

yourself.” Enoch regarded Rayleigh with a look of disappointment before he continued, “Where is Mr. Draco?”

The mention of Draco brought a glint of wistfulness across Rayleigh’s eyes. “Mr. Draco has passed on…” he said

with some sorrow.

“Considering that we’ve come to this, Rayleigh, it’s about time you repented. Surrender Jared Chance over to us,

and we shall beseech Mr. Deragon to spare you upon our return. Having been reduced to a petty mortal, you might

be better off finding yourself a place where you could retire to and live out the rest of your days in peace!” said

Enoch as he sought to persuade Rayleigh.

“Coming all the way out here, you must surely have realized that Jared is Ms. Beatrice’s son. How could I possibly

hand Jared over to you after how Mr. Draco has given his life for him? Don’t you know that Ryker had poisoned his

own father and usurped his position? By siding with him now, all of you are in fact, abetting evil,” said Rayleigh in

unbridled umbrage.

“Your words are wasted on him, Enoch. Let’s just get in there, grab Jared, and be done with it.”

With a resounding roar, the third guardian, Garadin, sent his own massive fist thundering toward Rayleigh.

Although there may not be too much martial energy put behind it, that punch still packed the potency to pummel

Rayleigh to a pulp should it connect, for there was no way the latter’s mortal body would be able to withstand an

impact like that.

That attack delivered was definitely a killing blow from Garadin, who came across as a callous character by showing

scant regard for the many years of service Rayleigh had contributed toward the Deragons.

Awooo!

At that crucial moment, the white wolf let out a howl and sank its fangs into the guardian’s shoulder.

“Aaaahh!”

Brought down by the pouncing white wolf, Garadin cried out in anguish. The other guardians moved swiftly in

response to intervene with a forceful retaliation.

Loosening its jaws and exerting its hind legs, the white wolf launched itself into the air in a single bound, dodging all

of the guardians’ flurry of attacks.

“Garadin, are you all right?”

Enoch promptly pulled his companion back onto his feet.

An inspection of his own mangled shoulder ignited the third guardian’s fury. His savage aura that came to an abrupt

boil promptly engulfed Rayleigh and the others within.

Josephine and Lizbeth both rushed forward to shield Rayleigh behind them, while Lyanna stayed close for Melanie’s

protection.

That would have been a sound move if not for the fact that amongst them, only Josephine and Lizbeth were

capable of handling themselves. With Lyanna’s limited abilities, she would probably be quite useless in a fight.

Up against the five Martial Arts Grandmasters, the white wolf, too, stood absolutely no chance whatsoever.

Be it so, none of them shied away, for Jared was verging on a breakthrough at that most critical juncture. Were he

to be disrupted in his endeavor, it could wreck the fruits of his cultivation to date, and his life might even be

forfeited.
