Chapter 238 Find The Other Half Of The Letter

"Hey, you old goat, where is the other half of the letter written in blood?" Zachary asked Herman, who was temporarily alive.

Herman's head slowly turned to Zachary like a rusty machine. To Zachary's surprise, Herman's blank eyes rotated randomly a few times. Then, HE started to speak slowly as if each word was so complicated for him to say. "In... my... pill-refining... room's..." Zachary slightly bent his head and strained his ears for he couldn't hear the last few key words clearly.

"Can you say it again and clearly? Although you are dead, it shouldn't be that hard for you to explain yourself clearly!" Zachary said helplessly and narrowed his eyes.

Herman suddenly groaned, rolled his eyes, fell to the ground and became dead again.

"The liquid was supposed to last five minutes! Master Tania cheated me," Zachary grumbled unhappily. But since he knew the letter was in Herman's pill-refining room, he would be able to find it as long as he looked for it carefully.

Therefore, he took the body of Herman and got out of the system. As soon as he reached the pill-refining room, Zachary laid Herman's corpse on the ground and rummaged through all the boxes in search of the other half of the letter. Yet, after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find it.

'Where did he hide it?' Zachary rubbed his chin, glanced at Herman's corpse. 'Herman was so cunny. The letter should be hidden in an unexpected place, but it might also be hidden at the most obvious place.'

His eyes then focused on the big furnace at the center of the room. Without any hesitation, he released a strong wave of martial energy force to bombard the furnace. With a loud bang, the lid of the furnace was opened. At the same time, a piece of bloody cloth flew out of the furnace. In the blink of an eye, it fell in Zachary's hands.

"Steward Herman, you were really something! You hid the letter written in your refining furnace. The most obvious place is sometimes the safest place to hide. No one would suspect such a hiding place!" Zachary said with a cold smile. He then dropped the corpse of Herman into the furnace, put the lid on it and lit the fire. The flames burst out as the dead body of Herman was slowly devoured by the flames.

"Since your final resting place is inside your own place, you should rest in peace!" Zachary said and then immediately left without looking back.

Later, he returned to the system and continued to heal his injuries. Besi

"The people of the Celestial College will probably deal with the matter of Zachary right away. If nothing goes wrong, he will definitely be expelled from our college!" Sara was not optimistic about the possibility.

"I will have to intervene to keep Zachary from being expelled," Katrina said in a determined tone of voice as she nodded slightly. Once a disciple, or even a figure above the Imperial Level, was expelled from the Celestial College, it would be difficult for them to get back again. Additionally, she was sure that Zachary was framed by the Zi Clan, so she could never let the Zi Clan succeed in what they wanted. However, since Zachary was still missing, she couldn't investigate the matter clearly for now. But before that, she must do something for him, lest things should become more complicated later.

"Master Katrina, if you are willing to help him, I am sure that everything will be fine," Sara said as she breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's not necessarily true. Do you think that I financially support those elders in the cabinet of warriors of Sage Level? If the members of the cabinet insist on expelling Zachary out of our college, our dean will have no choice but to follow their wishes!" Katrina shook her head when she contemplated the possibility.

"Well, at least there's a fighting chance. Master Katrina, if there is nothing else, I'm leaving now," Sara said as she bowed and left.

When Sara had left, Katrina muttered with a slight frown, "I'll find a helper. I don't believe that we together can't compete with the Zi Clan. But once the news spreads, it will create a huge storm of controversy."
