Chapter 959 The Voice.

959 The Voice. "Willow died."

In a dark room, a man, whose face was hidden in darkness spoke in a solemn tone.

"What were the results?"

Another voice was heard. There was no 'source' of this voice, it just echoed throughout the room.

"Not satisfactory." The man who replied, however, didn't seem to find it strange. It was as if he was already used to it.

"Report." The voice ordered.

"Prima and 7 Saints from the Skythorn Falcon City died, the rest of them surprised since they gave into Oberon Feline's conditions and the contract was signed. The Skythorn Falcon City is deeply damaged, however, there is nothing we can get out of that.

Feline Cat City, on the other hand, didn't lose anyone other than Willow's subordinates who were captured. Later, they were all executed by Rune Feline, with the only exception being Aragorn. He seemed to have disappeared somewhere."

The man reported.

"How did she fail this miserably?" The voice questioned. From its tone, it was not amused.

The man's body trembled in fear. He knew that the voice did not like what he reported. He feared that even though it was not his fault, the voice would take its frustration out on him.

He needed to tread carefully and watch what he says from now on, one wrong sentence and his head could be sliced away,

"It was because of Rune Feline.

The Assassination Hall they decided to use turned out to be Rune's, she learned about their plans and started looking around. She then faked her own death and as Felix continued to blame her in the Feline Cat City Hall, she appeared and destroyed all his plans.

Felix and the others were captured, then Felix was used to lure Prima, Willow, and other Falconkins, into trap and Oberon finished the rest."

The man reported.

"And it was done by that girl named Rune Feline?" The voice questioned. It seemed surprised.

"Yes, that is correct." The man nodded.

"Why was she not eliminated if she was this capable?"

"Willow tried to eliminate her, however, Felix's resistance was stronger than she expected, in the end, she had no choice but to give in." The man replied.

However, he couldn't fool the Voice.

"Were you the one who suggested that to Willow?"

*Gulp*

The man gulped. He could feel his entire life playing out to write in front of his eyes.

"P-P-Please spare me! We needed Felix to rule the Feline Cat City later, if Willow had pressed further, Felix would have doubted her intentions and that could have been used to break Felix's trust in Willow!" The man tried to defend himself.

"But Felix still turned against her mother even after she followed your suggestion, did he not?"

"…" The man turned silent, his heart started beating quickly. He might die! He might die soon! He was panicking and his entire body was trembling in absolute fear!

Many thoughts rushed into his mind.

He cursed Willow who failed to implement her plans after flaunting how no one was better than her and always looking down on others.

He also cursed Rune, Oberon, and everyone that was responsible for this.

He blamed them for his death and, in the end, he just closed his eyes.

Yes, he didn't even try to resist. Pleading or begging for mercy, trying to run away, he didn't bother doing anything like that and just gave in.

The voice was ruthless and cruel, there was no point in pleading for mercy. Neither could he try to run away since the Voice was just too strong, even he, a Divine Stage Cultivator who many people feared, was nothing but an ant the voice could squash anytime in his eyes.I think you should take a look at

Rather than resisting, the man knew it was much better to simply accept his death, at the very least, he would end up like the others who tried doing these things before.

"Rune alone could not have done it."

Suddenly, the voice spoke.

"H-Huh?"

The man, who was prepared for his death was shocked.

He survived!

Soon, however, he quickly came back to his senses. It wasn't time to celebrate, he needed to collect himself and answer.

"Y-Yes, I had the same thought, she could not have done this alone, I am trying to look into it, I have looking into her past actions, her potential allies who could have helped her, I am also looking into that Assassination Hall that she leads.

It was something that Willow didn't know about since it was the only thing Rune didn't share with her husband.

Willow was careless, so I need to look into that Assassination Hall and its allies. I am sure I will find something or someone who helped her.

Please give me some time, I will definitely come up with a satisfactory explanation."

The man replied, from his voice, it was clear how desperate he sounded.

Honestly, someone of his status acting like that was quite embarrassing, however, the man didn't care.

Status his ass! His life was at stake here!

He needed to do everything he could to save his life.

Investigating this incident and analyzing how Willow failed? That was what it takes for him to save his life? Then he will use all the resources he had and look into it.

"Stop investigating this case."

The voice, however, had different thoughts.

"W-What? L-Lord, please give me some time, I will defi-"

"I said stop looking into this case anymore." The voice repeated itself and the man's body froze.

"A-As you command."

"And remove all your traces related to this incident and connections with Willow." The voice ordered.

"A Divine Stage Cultivator has died, no matter how weak he was, the Order would still look into this incident. Be careful, I will not go against the Order just to protect you."

The voice spoke.

"Y-Yes, I will do as you command!"

The man replied, overjoyed.

He knew he was safe now.

"…"

The voice didn't say anything. The man got his cue, he knelt on the ground, then with his forehead on the floor, he spoke.

"I will be taking my leave now."

Then, the man disappeared.
