Chapter 1285 - Chapter 1285 706 Chapter Bell_2

Chapter 1285: 706 Chapter: Bell_2 Chapter 1285: 706 Chapter: Bell_2 “No, I escaped from the barrier,” Logan slowly began, his voice carrying a hint of fatigue, “Inside that barrier, dangers lurked on every side. Although I was lucky to escape, I have not yet regained my peak strength. Thus, I sustained some injuries and need some time to recover. Do you all understand?”

His words caused a tension among the Demon Race members present, but soon they felt reassured. They knew Lord Logan always acted cautiously, and it was only logical for him to seclude himself to heal from his injuries. Consequently, they nodded their heads, indicating their understanding.

“Understood! My lord, we won’t let anyone disturb your rest,” said a Demon Race member respectfully, his eyes filled with admiration and trust for Logan.

However, at that moment outside the castle, several representatives of the Great Sects, whom Logan had expelled, gathered together, their faces marked with indignation and confusion.

“What? Didn’t Logan say he would take us to the Spirit World? Why did he go back on his word and even expel us?” one Sect representative said angrily, his voice filled with discontent.

“Yes, what exactly is he scheming inside his gourd?” another Sect representative added, his eyes sparkling with puzzled light, “We took the risk to stand against the Righteous Forces for him. Now he treats us like this; it’s truly disheartening.”

“Hmph, perhaps he has his difficulties,” a relatively calm Sect representative spoke, “Lord Logan has always been mysterious in his actions, but he has always led us out of predicaments. Perhaps he has some special plan this time.”

Although his words attempted to soothe everyone, it was clear that the effect was minimal. The Sect representatives still discussed heatedly, expressing their confusion and anger at Logan’s actions.

Meanwhile, in the Secret Room, Logan was seemingly oblivious to all this. He closed his eyes and focused on healing his injuries. He knew how crucial this period of seclusion was for him. Only by fully recovering his strength could he lead the Demon Race toward a more glorious future.

As days went by, Logan’s injuries gradually healed. Although the Great Sect representatives outside the castle still harbored doubts and dissatisfaction, they began to gradually accept the fact. They understood that whatever plans Logan had, they needed to patiently wait and trust that he would provide a reasonable explanation.

Finally, on a dark and stormy night, Logan emerged from the Secret Room. His face was radiant once more, and his Demonic Qi had grown even denser. He knew he had regained his peak strength and it was time to start implementing his plan.

And when he walked out of the castle to face those long-awaiting Great Sect representatives, he smiled slightly and slowly began, “Everyone, thank you for your patience. Now, I can share my plan with you…”

Inside the spacious Council Hall of the Demon Clan Castle, the Demon Race members sat in a circle, the atmosphere tense and heated. They eagerly spoke one after another, attempting to voice their opinions and concerns, their voices rising and falling like a surging tide. Elder Talon Skyler sat among them, his brows furrowed, his eyes flickering with contemplative light. The more he heard, the more he felt something was amiss; the scene was rather abnormal.

“Yesterday I observed Logan,” Elder Talon Skyler suddenly said, his voice steady but with a barely perceptible note of worry, “Logan seemed quite different from usual, unnaturally quiet.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the Council Hall fell silent, all eyes focusing on him. They knew Elder Talon Skyler had a unique insight; his judgments were often spot-on.

“Are you saying that something might be wrong with Logan?” a Demon Race member asked cautiously, his tone filled with uncertainty.

Elder Talon Skyler nodded and then shook his head, his expression complex. “I can’t be sure, but I feel that something is off. Logan is usually decisive, but now he’s suddenly become so quiet; it doesn’t fit his character.”

Just then, Sheron Perri hurriedly entered the Council Hall, his face filled with anxiety and helplessness. “Everyone, do you know? Logan still hasn’t returned, leaving such a mess for me. Those Sect people are not easy to fool, what should I do?”

His words made the atmosphere in the Council Hall even more tense. Everyone exchanged glances, filled with doubt and unease. They knew that Logan’s disappearance was undoubtedly a huge blow to the Demon Clan, and Sheron Perri, as the person in charge of the Demon Clan Castle, was under unimaginable pressure at that moment.

“If everyone is so anxious, why don’t I go and ask Logan on behalf of us all?” Sheron Perri was pacing anxiously in the room when suddenly a flash of Spirit Light struck him, and he blurted out, “I believe Logan would definitely not deceive us! He must have some special reason for not returning.”

However, his words did not completely reassure everyone. They knew that Logan’s disappearance was not a simple matter, and it must be hiding some secret unknown to others.

Just as Sheron Perri was frantic and at a loss, a sudden urgent knock sounded from outside. This sound, in the silent Council Hall, was especially jarring, making everyone’s nerves tense.

Sheron Perri was startled and quickly walked to the door, shouting to the person outside, “Who is it? What’s the matter?”

The person outside seemed not to hear his question, and the knocking remained urgent and forceful. Sheron Perri frowned, a bad premonition rising in his heart. He took a deep breath and fiercely opened the door.

Standing outside was a Demon Soldier, his face covered in sweat and his expression panicked. “Lord Sheron Perri, it’s bad! Outside… Outside, a group of Righteous Forces has arrived, they want to see Lord Logan, and they threatened if Lord Logan doesn’t appear, they will force their way in!”

Hearing this, Sheron Perri was greatly alarmed. He knew that this must be the Sects that Logan had driven out, now allied with the Righteous Forces seeking revenge. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. “You hold them off first, I will immediately go find Lord Logan.”

After speaking, he turned back into the Council Hall and briefed everyone on the situation. On hearing this, everyone’s expression drastically changed. They knew this crisis was undoubtedly a tremendous trial for the Demon Clan. And Logan’s disappearance only exacerbated this crisis.

“What should we do now?” a Demon Clan member asked anxiously.

Elder Talon Skyler pondered for a moment then slowly spoke, “It seems that we can only try to stall these Righteous Forces for now and continue searching for Logan’s whereabouts. Only by finding Logan can we completely resolve this crisis.”

Deep within the Demon Clan Castle, in an ancient and mysterious tower, Elder Talon Skyler was sitting by a round table made of Thousand-year-old Cold Iron, toying with a Jade Pendant that emitted a faint glow, his gaze deep, seemingly pondering some significant issue. Suddenly, a firm and urgent knock interrupted this tranquility.

“Who’s there?” Elder Talon Skyler’s voice slowly spread, carrying a subtle air of authority and curiosity.

Outside, the figure of Sheron Perri appeared rather anxious. He clasped his fists, pacing back and forth, evidently harboring unspeakable troubles. “It’s me, Sheron Perri. I wish to see Logan and discuss the matter of the Space-Time Corridor thoroughly. Hasn’t everyone already agreed to set off immediately? Why keep delaying so long!” His tone carried hints of dissatisfaction and confusion, clearly puzzled by Logan’s continued absence.

Upon hearing this, Elder Talon Skyler’s brow furrowed slightly, ripples also rising in his heart.
