The Heiress’ Return: Six Brothers at Her Beck and Call



Chapter 1823 The Mastermind Shows Himself

As soon as Jervis finished speaking, the four of them fell silent, their eyes instinctively darting toward the back. The question was awkward, to say the least.

But Jervis didn't seem to notice. "What's wrong? Why is no one speaking? Don't feel burdened. The sages already know how dangerous Granville Village is. The fact that you made it out alive is impressive enough."

Feradach was speechless. What burden? This wasn't about burden. They were just feeling awkward, not knowing how they were supposed to answer this. Should they just say that Carlton had gone mad or that Mt. Lunther's disciples abandoned their comrades and stabbed them in the back?

Just as the four were about to gather their thoughts and respond, Wynter finally emerged from the teleportation formation.

She wanted to keep an eye on Isidore as soon as possible. After all, according to her reasoning, he would lose his source of nourishment and worship once the formation in Granville Village was broken. He would desperately need a suitable vessel to transfer its decaying soul.

Of course, Granville Village wasn't his only means of survival. He must have had other ways to gather power. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to hide in plain sight on Mt. Lunther without being detected by any of the sects.

To ensure Raleigh's safety, Wynter had stayed close to him the entire time, which was why she was late. Raleigh was dragging his so-called genius seniors, Carlton and Jaylene, along with him.

Carlton looked utterly disheveled, his hair a mess and his sword broken. He kept muttering, "This can't be. This can't be happening."

In contrast, Wynter appeared calm and composed, her demeanor sharp and unshaken. She walked forward as if she hadn't heard the murmurs behind her. Gasps began to ripple through the crowd, and everyone's eyes were filled with disbelief.
