Chapter 716 Teleportation Formation
716 Teleportation Formation
"What the fu*k was that?" Evan asked in a baffled voice after coming back to his senses. His breathing was rough and he was still feeling a headache because of the last thing that he just saw in the memory.
'Just what was the thing that he took out from his shadow storage that nearly destroyed my mind because I tried to take a look at it?' Evan asked himself, thinking about the thing that the man used to obliterate the entire Universal Tree.
Just when Evan was lost in his thoughts, he felt two gazes fixed on himself.
He lifted his head and looked in front of him. When he looked in front of him, Evan saw Ashley and an old man with a hunched back and wrinkled face staring at him.
Ashley was still looking at him warily and her gaze was ice cold, but the way the old man was looking at him made him feel puzzled.
'Why do I feel like this old man is afraid of me?' Evan thought inwardly, looking at Sylvan whose face was still a little pale.
"What did you do?" Ashley suddenly asked Evan, thinking that Sylvan was acting strange because of him.
Evan raised an eyebrow when he heard Ashley.
"What are you talking about?" He asked with a confused look on his face, not understanding what she was talking about.
"You_" Seeing Evan's confused face, Ashley's face turned red from anger, thinking that he was just acting.
"Looks like you are not_"
"That's enough, Ashley."
Ashley was thinking about intimidating Evan so that he would tell her what he just did, but before she could finish her sentence, she was stopped by Sylvan.
Ashley looked at Sylvan with a questioning look on her face, not understanding why he stopped her.
"Can you leave us alone for a moment?" Sylvan didn't explain anything and asked her in a calm voice. His pale face already returned to normal and even the trembling of his body stopped.
"Grandpa..." Although Sylvan asked her if she could leave them alone, Ashley knew that it was more of an order for her to leave the cave. Even though she knew Sylvan was asking her to leave, Ashley shook her head.
"I am not going anywhere."
After seeing the way Sylvan behaved earlier, she knew that something was up and she was worried about him.
Hearing Ashley's firm voice, Sylvan sighed as he already knew what she was thinking.
'I shouldn't have lost control over my emotions earlier' He thought inwardly, looking at Evan who was watching them with a weird look on his face. 'Still... I can't allow her to hear the things that I want to confirm with this guy.'
Sylvan took a deep breath and looked at Ashley with a calm smile on his face.
"You don't have to worry about me. I just want to talk to him alone."
"But..." Although Sylvan was more powerful than her, Ashley was still worried about him and didn't want to leave him alone after seeing his earlier behaviour.
"You still need to finish the teleportation formation, right?
Hearing Sylvan, Ashley's expression changed a little.
"We just have three months left. Instead of wasting your time here, you should focus on completing the teleportation formation."
Evan frowned in confusion when he heard the conversation between Sylvan and Ashley.
'What kind of teleportation formation they are talking about?'
"I have already finished the most difficult part. I can easily complete the formation in less than a month," Ashley said in a low voice and once again refused to leave.
Hearing Ashley, a smile appeared on Sylvan's face and he nodded his head in satisfaction.
"I know you have already finished the most difficult part, but we can't take any chances regarding this formation. Once the formation is finished, our people will be able to enter the Tomb Of The Ancient without anyone noticing so instead of wasting your time here, you should go ahead and finish the formation first."
"There are still three months left before the Tomb Of The Ancient opens. I can finish it after we deal with this guy."
Sylvan shook his head hearing Ashley and waved his hand as if he was shooing her away.
"I know you just want to laze around, but you should complete the formation first. If you waste your time like this, you will not be able to fix the formation in time, if we find any problem after its completion."
"I..." Ashley wanted to refuse what Sylvan said but she knew that he was right. It was the first time she was going to create a special teleportation formation so she knew there would definitely be some problems after its completion.
"Alright.." In the end, Ashley sighed and nodded her head with a reluctant look on her face. "... I am going to leave, but call me immediately if you find anything strange about this guy," She said, glancing at Evan who was lost in his own thoughts after hearing what Sylvan and Ashley said earlier.
"Don't worry, I will immediately call you if I find anything strange."
Ashley hesitated for a moment after hearing Sylvan but finally left the cave.
Evan looked at Ashley who was leaving the cave and thought about what he had just heard.
'Tomb Of The Ancient huh...' Evan said inwardly, thinking about all the things that he knew about it.
Once Ashley left, the calm smile on Sylvan's face disappeared and he looked at Evan with a serious look on his face.
'What is wrong with this old man?' Evan frowned a bit, seeing the way Sylvan was looking at him.
He could tell that the old man in front of him was even more powerful than Ashley, but for some reason, he felt as if the old man was afraid of him.
"Um... Thanks for helping me ou_" Evan wanted to thank the old man for stopping Ashely earlier, but his words got stuck inside his mouth because the old man suddenly asked him something that he did not expect.
"What is your relationship with the Shadow Monarch?"
