Chapter 784: Side Story 10: Divine Selection of Two Realms 5_2

Elder Wells glared at Emperor Chloe with an ugly expression.

Although all the candidates had no faction issues, some people would still secretly try to win them over. After all, if you treated a candidate well and they were really selected in the end, the hidden master behind the scenes would also benefit!

Without any interrogation, Elder Wells sternly ordered, "Take her away!"

Emperor Chloe’s tense body suddenly moved.

"On what grounds are you taking me away? I haven’t committed any crime. What does Harold Xander’s incident have to do with me?"

In the instant of retreating, Chloe’s cold gaze fell upon the crowd in front of her.

Giselle Rock was among them, but she just watched the scene coldly.

Instead, it was Dilbert Jones who stood forward, stopping everyone, "Elder Wells, Emperor Chloe has done nothing wrong."

"She’s done nothing? Then how did Harold Xander die?" At the same time, those candidates from the same place instantly pulled Dilbert Jones back and quickly suppressed him.

"Let me go! Giselle Rock, Emperor Chloe didn’t do anything..." Dilbert was restrained.

Even if he had abilities, he wouldn’t be able to resist the crowd that rushed towards him.

Giselle Rock remained silent and showed no intention of rescuing Emperor Chloe.

No matter how Harold Xander died, the blame would only fall on Chloe.

It was just like before, even if she had nothing to do with these incidents, she would still be forcefully implicated.

Who could blame her for having such an unrestrained personality and no abilities?

The rule of the strong was simple: if they said you were guilty, then you were guilty.

Austin Godfrey returned home and was immediately trapped by his family.

By the time he regained his senses, he couldn’t leave anymore.

As soon as he received the news from the Elder Council, he was locked up. The situation for Emperor Chloe now must be very dire.

"Austin, don’t bother struggling. It’s someone else’s issue, so don’t always try to get involved. That Emperor Chloe is not worth your effort." Austin’s uncle was also a member of the Elder Council. As an elder, he was well aware of the relationship between Austin and Emperor Chloe.

"She’s my friend. I must save her. If not me, then who else can save her?" Austin pushed the specially crafted cage, but a force backlash struck him, causing his eyes to emit light and his internal organs to churn non-stop.

"Don’t waste your energy," sighed uncle Louis Hughes, "With so many talented women, why are you obsessed with her? Austin, she has already been taken away by Lucas Wells. You must know some of the torturing methods used in the Shadow Council Chamber. Once she enters, she won’t come out again."

Austin’s face contorted with rage, "She didn’t commit any crime, why are they treating her like this? If possible, please help Emperor Chloe’s family..."

Uncle Louis shook his head at Austin, "Do you really think they care about Emperor Chloe’s life or death?"

"But Emperor Chloe is their child, so why..."

"Emperor Chloe’s parents are not sentimental people. All they care about is pure power." Louis Hughes added another layer of restrictions outside the cage, then left without looking back, no matter how Austin called out to him.

Emperor Chloe struggled to open her eyelids.

In just less than half an hour after entering, she was almost completely disabled.

Chloe bit down on her bloody teeth and laughed, her laughter carrying a hint of madness, "If you don’t kill me today, I will bathe you all in blood someday!"

The executioner was one of Lucas Wells’ men.

After inflicting excruciating pain on Emperor Chloe, the other party was still so arrogant. The executioner frowned and then used even more brutal methods to create wounds on Chloe’s body.

"Tell us, how did Harold Xander die? What was the reason for his condition? Were there other people involved? Was it someone from the Divine Light Realm?" Lucas Wells’ cold voice came from the front. Chloe, who was hung up, slowly lifted her eyelids. Even in so much pain, she didn’t let out a single scream, only giving Lucas Wells a sinister smile.

Lucas Wells furrowed his brow, "Hurry up, we must find out the truth."

Harold Xander’s death was too bizarre. Although it was a normal death for ordinary people, Harold Xander was a cultivator!

As long as one was a cultivator, their death couldn’t possibly be like that.

Even if they used special means to preserve the body, there would be traces. But Harold Xander’s body contained no protection marks, meaning he died like ordinary people would.

Lucas Wells had no choice but to have the people under him find a way to pry open Emperor Chloe’s mouth.

Emperor Chloe was stubborn, so after that, she closed her eyes and ignored everyone. No matter what they did, they couldn’t get her to open her eyes or mouth.

In this situation, Lucas Wells was extremely irritated.

He couldn’t kill her. He could only carry out his sentence within limits.

If he went too far, she would be gone in a blink of an eye.

So, for now, Emperor Chloe wouldn’t be tortured to death.

"Why aren’t you saving her?"

Dilbert Jones questioned his own family.

As cultivators themselves, their reproduction capacity was limited, so the family ties were not very extensive. Because strength was a cultivator’s primary concern, the relationship between family members was also weak.

Dilbert had decent talents, so his weight within the family was considerable, but it was only because of his talent, not any so-called affection.

The family relationships in the Shadow Domain were particularly cold-blooded.

However, most people still value the situation.

Emperor Chloe’s family happened to be one of the cold-blooded families. That’s why Chloe had been unfortunate since childhood.

"Dilbert, do you really want us to go against the Elder Council just to save a useless person?" The elder coldly spoke heartlessly, "It’s her own fault. It’s better if she dies. That way, we won’t have to clean up the mess for her in the future."

Dilbert clenched his fists, hating that he was born in such a family. If Emperor Chloe had been born in another family, she would have been much better off.

Giselle Rock said, "Dilbert, I know you care about Emperor Chloe, but no one can save her this time. Harold Xander is a candidate and was Elder Wells’ beloved disciple, but Chloe killed him in this manner. Moreover, her method of killing raised alarm in the Elder Council, so they’re probably worried someone else from another place is involved. Even though the two realms’ relationship isn’t that bad, there are still boundaries. This time, she must have done something to provoke the Shadow Domain. If we try to save her, we’ll only drag ourselves down, too."

"Harold Xander always bullied Emperor Chloe when he had the chance, so even if Chloe killed him in self-defense, it’s still their fault..." Dilbert objected, but as he continued, he swallowed his words. No matter what he said, the others remained unmoved, so what use would it be?
