265 The Culprits
Christina and Tiana were forced to turn in the direction from which they heard the shout.
Their eyes sparkled when they gazed upon that man. This man was coincidentally one of those five Red Crown Sect disciples who had hired those troublemakers to attack Black Lake Sect's booths.
Tiana recalled that his name was Fotis.
"Perfect. We even have one of the culprits here," Tiana spoke with a grin that was hidden behind her veil.
Before the guy named Fotis could understand her words, Tiana whispered, "Ice Shards!"
Multiple Ice Shards were created in mid-air near Tiana's body. These Ice Shards were immediately launched at Fotis.
Before Fotis could move from his position, the Ice Shards stabbed his thighs, preventing him from moving any more.
While Fotis was immovable, his knees touched the ground, and he showed a terrified look. He had no idea why this woman wearing a veil had attacked him, but he didn't get a good feeling about this.
"This guy, including the 4 others whose appearances are drawn on these posters, instigated a group of troublemakers to attack the Black Lake Sect's booths. It's time for you to give us an explanation, Sir Elias," Tiana spoke with a deadly calm tone.
Elias's complexion turned ugly as he realized that he was trapped in this ice right now because of these individuals.
"These people?! I had no idea they had such plans," Elias spoke out.
Tiana didn't look convinced, though. She turned in Christina's direction and gestured towards her, "My method likely won't work here. It's time for you to do your thing, Christina."
Christina immediately grinned as she was surrounded with a reddish aura and charged towards Elias.
Elias knew she was coming to attack him. However, he found it shocking that he couldn't utilize half of his Ardor.
It was as if, along with his legs, his Ardor had been frozen as well.
He could barely raise his left arm to block that attack while reinforcing his body with his Ardor.
Once Christina struck his chest, he realized how useless his defense was.
The ice that trapped his lower body broke because of the impact of Christina's punch.
Christina then moved forward to punch Elias one more time. This time, Elias was prepared as he immediately sent Ardor in his legs and dodged her punch.
He then raised his broken arms and spoke, "Wait, wait, wait…! Give me some time. I was truly not involved in this scheme!"
At that moment, Tiana spoke out with a calm tone, "As one of the Inner Disciples of the Red Crown Sect, shouldn't you be held responsible for the actions of your Junior Brothers? Are you going to shrink from that responsibility, Elias Callides?"
Elias felt like cursing Tiana as he heard that sentence.
He knew that those words only lit up Christina's desire to hit him even more.
"…Give me half an hour! Just half an hour, and I will gather everything before presenting it to you!" Elias requested while dodging another attack from Christina.
Tiana thought for a few seconds before nodding, "Alright. You have half an hour."
Tiana spoke out, "Christina. Let's stop now. If you slug him too badly, he might fall unconscious, and we would personally need to gather information."
Christina looked slightly frustrated, but she listened to Tiana's words and stopped. She had just begun to enjoy this!
"…Okay," She spat out while staring in Elias's direction.
The two women soon walked away while Elias immediately roared at the Red Crown Sect disciples near him, "Capture these five! I want to see them immediately!"
A few disciples even called out for their physician to check up on Elias's injuries.
~~
Tiana and Christina were walking in the area nearby while waiting for Elias to gather the necessary information.
"Is the Red Crown Sect involved or not?" Christina asked Tiana with a curious gaze.
Tiana answered calmly, "It's involved. But not like you are thinking. Only the low-ranked disciples are involved."
"I know this for sure because if they really planned on going against your Black Lake Sect, they would have prepared a counter-measure for you. Currently, there is not a single expert of your level in the Red Crown Sect here. All their experts are accompanying the elders and enjoying a banquet with the organizers. If they were here, I doubt you would be able to do much."
Christina looked extremely agitated at those words, but she didn't deny them. That was the truth.
This time, the Red Crown Sect was led by the 6th Prince. And she wasn't confident in defeating him.
"I believe that it was some other sect who used gave a bunch of benefits to these Red Crown Sect disciples and asked them to instigate those troublemakers to create trouble for the Black Lake Sect."
"That sect knew that you will find out it was the Red Crown Sect disciples who instigated those troublemakers. Knowing your temper, you will immediately attack the Red Crown Sect's booths and even destroy them. However, what do you think this will accomplish?" Tiana asked Christina.
Christina remained silent as she digested Tiana's words. Before she could answer, Tiana continued, "You would have punished hundreds of innocents and let the true culprits enjoy the results."
"Once the 6th Prince returns and finds out about your actions, even if he finds out the truth, he will prioritize punishing your Black Lake Sect," Tiana finished explaining the consequences to Christina.
"Woaaah! I never thought that the situation would be so bad. So that's why my mother asks me to not do anything. I always seem to create one trouble or another for the sect, and I never knew why. So I had to think so deeply about this," Christina let out a tired sigh while revealing this bit of information to Tiana.
Tiana was instantly speechless at those words. She changed the topic by saying, "All we need to do is wait now."
"Waiting is something I despise the most!" With an irritated tone, Christina spoke.
Tiana had a sweatdrop behind her head as she didn't know what she should say to this girl.
After half an hour, a Red Crown Sect disciple came running in their direction.
"Young Miss Christina and Young Miss Tiana, Senior Brother Elias calls out for you," The Red Crown Sect's disciple spoke with a respectful tone.
He had witnessed how Christina and Tiana had dealt with Elias. It didn't even seem like a fight.
They were thrashing Elias.
And Elias could easily thrash most of the Red Crown Sect's disciples who had come here. This allowed them to understand their position in front of Christina and Tiana.
Christina and Tiana didn't focus on the emotions this disciple was experiencing. They were more interested in learning who was the true perpetrator.
Soon, they reached the location where Elias was waiting for them.
His arms had been bandaged properly, and there was a greenish glow over his arms.
They were probably healing through some sort of Talisman's effect.
Tiana stared at the five disciples who were kneeling ahead of Elias. There were also other Red Crown Sect's disciples who were gathered around him.
"…These five are the culprits who instigated those troublemakers. And they did that because they received some benefits from an Origin Sect's elder," Elias wasn't in the mood to chat about other topics, so he got right to the point.
