Making Millions With The Eyes Of God by Eric Gus

Chapter 549

Darius was utterly stunned.

So were everyone else present.

Even Cedric was dumbfounded.

Already badly injured, Cedric had once again created a crater in the ground.

His state could be best described as utterly despondent.

The reason Cedric had attacked Darius was simply to gain favor with Gilmore.

It was his way of showing loyalty.

But never had he imagined that his show of loyalty would be met with Gilmore knocking him away with a blow

from behind.

The bitterness in Cedric’s heart was indescribable.

Even if Gilmore had not praised his loyalty, there was no need for such a treacherous strike.

At that moment, Cedric felt both desolate and wronged

However, there was nothing he could do about it since his life was in Gilmore's hands.

Whether it was being flung into the ground to create a crater or even being killed, it would be a death in vain for

Cedric

Darius, on the other hand, was equally shocked.

Cedric was clearly intent on killing him and showed blatant disrespect towards Gilmore.

Yet, Gilmore had unexpectedly struck Cedric away, saving Darius. This left Darius utterly baffled, wondering why

Gilmore had intervened to save him,

While this was happening, Gilmore seemed to have read Darius’s mind. A faint smile appeared on his face as he

said, “Mr. Abbott, are you wondering why | saved you?

“Frankly speaking, your loyalty and integrity are admirable.

“If you, Mr. Abbott, would consider joining me, | assure you of my utmost respect and use of your talents. You

certainly won't have to endure the likes of Cedric again.”

Only then did Darius and the others understand why Gilmore had intervened against Cedric

It turned out that Gilmore respected Darius for his loyalty and integrity.

However, when Gilmore extended his offer, Darius’s face turned cold with anger. “Gilmore, do you think 1,

Darius, would stoop so low as Cedric, shamelessly surrendering to you?

“You colluded with Leland of the Dragonspire Secret Realms, ruthlessly harmed the other three realm masters,

crippled their martial arts, and banished them from the Realms.

“Our Phoenix Sect master and the other three sect masters have already gone to confront Leland. | believe they

will return

soon.

“And you, causing trouble in our Phoenix Sect, will certainly not be spared when our sect master returns.”

Gilmore didn’t get angry but simply smiled slightly. “Mr. Abbott, it’s fine if you don’t wish to pledge loyalty to me.

Out of respect for your integrity, | won't kill you.”

He then turned his gaze to Cedric and said, “Cedric, apart from Mr. Abbott, if any other members of the Phoenix

Sect relise to surrender and pledge loyalty to me, they shall be shown no mercy.”

Cedric, having just climbed out of the pit, immediately responded, “Yes, Mr. Reed”

But he was surprised that Gilmore had spared Darius.

Clearly, Gilmore was trying to win over Darius.

Cedric thought to himself, “I must inform my father and the other sect masters once they return.

“Gilmore treats everyone from the Phoenix Sect as ruthless enemies, except for Darius,

“I must convince my father to eliminate Darius.

Although Cedric harbored thoughts of revenge against Darius, he dared not shot

show it

He then assumed his haughty demeanor as the young master of the Phoenix Sect and, with a touch of aloofness,

addressed the Phoenix Sect martialists, “From now on, we, the Phoenix Sect, will surrender and pledge loyalty to

Mr. Reed.

“Let us all pay our respects to Mr. Reed together.

After speaking, Cedric led by example. He clasped his hands together, bowed respectfully to Gilmore, and said,

“Cedric pays respects to Mr. Reed!”

Although there was a sense of disdain for Cedric, a prominent figure of the Phoenix Sect, surrendering and

pledging loyalty to Gilmore, the other martialists of the Sect couldn't ignore Cedric’s status and the fear he

commanded.

Consequently, they too clasped their hands and bowed to Gilmore, saying. “We are willing to surrender and

pledge loyalty to Mr. Reed!

Hearing this, Darius, pointing angrily at the members of the Phoenix Sect, exclaimed, “You... will be remembered

as the eternal traitors of the Phoenix Sect.”

None of the Phoenix Sect martialists dared to meet Darius’s g

gaze

They wanted to be as loyal and upright as Darius, but Gilmore had made it clear, apart from Darius, anyone who

refused t

surrender would be shown no mercy.

Naturally, these experts of the Phoenix Sect didn’t dare to cross Cedric.

If Cedric wished to kill them, it would be as easy for him as it was for Gilmore to threaten Cedric.

To save their own skins, they had no choice but to follow Cedric’s lead and surrender to Gilmore.

Of course, these martialists of the Phoenix Sect weren't genuinely eager to surrender to Gilmore.

Like Cedric, they believed that once their sect master Jordan and the other three sect masters returned, they

would surely be able to subdue Gilmore.

Darius, seeing that all members of the Phoenix Sect had surrendered to Gilmore, was consumed with a furious

indignation and stormed off.

He couldn’t stand another moment amongst these Phoenix Sect members, who, in his eyes, were cowardly and

without

honor.

He wanted to get as far away from them as possible.

After Darius left, Cedric and the other young masters of the Phoenix Sect noticed that Gilmore didn’t order

anyone to stop

him.

True to his word to Darius, Gilmore let him go.

Darius then left the summit of Phoenix Peak and started descending the mountain.

However, halfway down the mountain, Darius heard a whooshing sound from below, signaling approaching

figures.

Looking towards the base of the mountain, he saw thousands of martialists soaring upwards.

These martialists swiftly reached the midpoint where Darius was stationed.

Recognizing them. Darius realized these were the martialists from the four major sects who had gone off to

battle.

His heart swelled with joy.

Overwhelmed with happiness, Darius shouted to the approaching martialists, “You have triumphantly returned!

The Phoenix Sect is saved?”

Landing around him, many greeted him warmly, calling out, “Mr. Abbott!”

“Mr. Abbott, we've taken control of the Dragonspire Secret Realms.”

We've won”

Indeed, these were the Phoenix Sect’s martialists, many of whom were Darius’s junior apprentices.

Seeing the martialists return, Darius couldn't hide his excitement

He called out, “My junior apprentices, you're finally back! Without you, the Phoenix Sect was on the brink of

collapse.”

Hearing Darius’s words, not just the Phoenix Sect martialists but also those from the other three sects were

taken aback. Coming to their senses, someone quickly asked Darius, “Mr. Abbott, we just returned victorious

from the Dragonspire Secret Realms, how did things get so dire?”

Darius then explained how Gilmore had infiltrated the Phoenix Sect and how Cedric and the other young

masters, along with the martialists who had remained behind, had all surrendered and pledged loyalty to

Gilmore.

Everyone listened in stunned silence to Darius’s account

At that moment, as if carried by the wind, four figures appeared before Darius and the others with a swift flash of

light.

These were none other than Jordan, Elijah, Alexander, and Bentley-the four major sect masters.
