Chapter 1022 - 1021: Taking a Risk
Given the grave matters of life and death, Rafael Case did not dare to take it lightly, nor did he dare to joke around, so he immediately took out the Message Jade Disc to send a message to his favored Elder Fang.
If it had been any other time, he would never have contacted Elder Fang on his own, but under the current exceptional circumstances, in case those people knew it was them who did it, and were waiting for them right there, then they’d better run as far away as possible, as fast as possible.
Of course, he wasn’t foolish enough to ask directly. Instead, he started with, "Can you receive this?"
"Received, Rafael, where are you?" came the immediate reply, just as tender and affectionate as always.
"My junior master and I just crawled out from underground, but we heard that you all went to some divine site. Where is that site? We want to go take a look too," Rafael Case, though a typically unserious man, still had his wits about him and knew how to be circumspect!
"Do not go there, do not go there at all. Right now, we all are in the southwest direction, and there’s a valley here. Delilah Ferguson of your Alchemy College has been killed, and her father is an Immortal Emperor. He ordered us to investigate the cause of Delilah Ferguson’s death, and we are here waiting for the return of that Great Emperor. You and Zayden Newton should not wander around outside. Hurry back to the group, to prevent others from being suspicious and mistrustful!"
"Ah? Okay, okay, we’ll be back right away." Rafael Case sent this and then plopped down onto the ground.
Yusuf Zuck snatched the Jade Dishware to carefully read it over. After reading it, however, he was dumbstruck — damn it, Delilah Ferguson was the daughter of an Immortal Emperor?
This was truly a disaster.
"What to do, what to do, what do you say we do? It’s over, we’re done for — an Immortal Emperor, oh my god!" Rafael Case was completely flabbergasted. Damn, they had accidentally offended an Immortal Emperor!
