Chapter 926 One Blow

As soon as she heard her name fall on Sophie's lips, Annie was just as surprised. She asked, "Are you a disciple of the Living-dead Tomb?"

"Are you really Master Annie?" Sophie asked once again. When she heard Annie mention the Living-dead Tomb, her body trembled. She never had the pleasure of meeting Anne personally, but she had snippets of idea of who she was―she had seen her portrait. Sophie had heard before that Annie was her master's master. However, Anne was supposedly dead two hundred years ago. But much to her confusion and astonishment, Annie was right before her eyes in the flesh.

"I can't believe Sophie is a disciple of the Living-dead Tomb! Does this mean we are from the same sect?" Zachary excitedly questioned.

"Your master is Master Anne?!" Sophie asked Zachary as she came back to her sense, putting two and two together.

"Ha-ha! That's right. If Anne is your master's master, while I am Anne's disciple, then I am senior that you. You should show me respect as much as you give her," Zachary joked. 'What a small world! I can't believe that Sophie is also a disciple of the Living-dead Tomb,' he thought, terribly amused.

"That is not gonna happen! Don't ever think about that!" Sophie fired back as he shot Zachary an angry glance. It really annoyed her to the extreme that Zachary was actually a senior according the hierarchy of the Living-dead Tomb.

"Stop it. Let's talk about it after we terminate this beast," Annie urged the two of them. Her time was limited. Soon enough, she would have to go back to where she should be. Moreover, the Supreme Cloud Lion was not easy to deal with.

Zachary and Sophie stopped arguing and began to prepare for the battle.

"We're crunched on time, and it's impossible to produce the sealing tool to seal the Supreme Cloud Lion now. So I have no choice but to distract it with my spiritual soul. Zachary, you must try your best to tame it. If we fail to do so, we would have to destroy its beast soul," Anne ordered, her brows furrowed in concentration.

"Seriously? Do you really think he can tame this elite beast?" Sophie asked, her mouth agape in surprise. She was always cocky and overbearing, but she was obedient in front of Anne. Although she was at the Holy Level, she couldn't be on par with Anne in terms of strength.

"I like this idea." Zachary nodded excitedly as he gave the creature a calculating glan

sbelief.

Without even waiting for its next words, Zachary took out the Soul-gathering Bell and showed it to the Supreme Cloud Lion.

"Do you know what this is?" he taunted. His smile was wicked; he knew that he had the upper hand in this situation. "I-It's the Soul-gathering Bell," the Supreme Cloud Lion stammered. It was clever, and it obviously knew about the Soul-gathering Bell. The scared look in its eyes was a clue.

"So you know it. Then, this will make things easier for us," Zachary mocked further.

"So what? You are too weak. There is no way you can use it to absorb my beast soul," the Supreme Cloud Lion confidently answered.

"Are you sure?" Zachary smiled at it and then said, "Master Andrew, I bet you like this beast soul. It's at the Holy Level!"

"Ha-ha! Brat, once I absorb this beast soul, my spiritual will return to its peak." Then, a beam of blue light came out of Zachary's Holy Bone Bracer. It emanated the aura of Holy Level.

"It's a spiritual soul of Holy Level! How did you coexist with this soul?" The Supreme Cloud Lion couldn't contain its surprise. 'This human is just at the primary stage of Sage Level, but he managed to live in peace with a spiritual soul of Holy Level. That doesn't make any sense,' it thought to itself.

Even Sophie, who was watching the whole scene unfold, was too shocked to utter a word. 'Zachary has so many secrets Katrina and I didn't know. Who would have thought that his master is Master Annie? He even keeps a spiritual soul of Holy Level in his Holy Bone Bracer,' she thought, staring at Zachary in sheer amazement.
