Chapter 6153


    A brief momentter, Adair put her palm against one side of her temple.


    “What is with this liquor? I feel so dizzy now."


    “Me too."


    Xatia replied, “It feels like someone has a hold of my soul."


    The two of them swayed a little and dropped to the floor.


    L and Rebe widened their eyes.


    They quickly threw their sses aside.


    “What did you put in our drinks?"


    Rebe fixed Cerise with a re.


    Unfortunately, she lost her bnce and fell onto the floor the next instant.


    “How dare you!"


    L merely took a step forward and crashed onto the floor as well.


    James pointed at Cerise.


    Before he could say anything, James sank onto the table.


    “I thought you might be smarter and more alert since you lot made it out of the Fodtt Land alive."


    Cerise looked at her ss and snickered, “Yet, all of you turned out to be a naive bunch of cultivators."


    Meanwhile, a wave of aura spread across the hall, seemingly trying to check those people who had


    passed out.


    As the aura disappeared a whileter, Quartney came in through a side door.


    Cerise hurried to Quartney’s side.She got down on her knees.


    “Madam Quartney, I did as you asked.My daughter and son-inw..."


    “Rx."


    Quartney slowly stepped down from the podium and looked at the guests who had lost consciousness.


    A sinister smile hung on her face.


    She stopped before James and lifted his face slightly with her hand.


    “He has a handsome face.No wonder so many beautifuldies are willing to follow him."


    Quartney continued in a steely voice, “Tie them up with the Soulbound Rope.These cultivators may be


    a threat to us."


    “Haven''t they fall under our control? Could they still be a danger to us?" Cerise asked nervously.


    Quartney rolled her eyes.


    “The Timaeus Sect''s best fighter, Elder L, is among their group.She alone could wipe out all of lustus


    Sect’s members."


    Her face broke with a smile.


    “However, we have more leverage now with these men in our hands.


    “We could negotiate with the Timaeus Sect and Yaquis Sect for more gains by using these people as


    hostages.


    “If the situation is not in favor of us, we can use these men to request for Sk''s protection.Anyhow,


    they are useful in many ways."


    Cerise smiled awkwardly.


    “Madam Quartney, what about my daughter and son-inw..."


    “They are safe for the time being."


    Quartney said monotonously, “I need to consider how I am going to use Sk’s young master first."


    Suddenly, there was the sound of someone chuckling.


    Quartney’s expression hardened.


    On the other hand, Cerise flinched and turned her gaze toward the door.


    A man’s voice echoed through the hall.


    “I thought the lustus Sect’s leader had orchestrated this n for a bigger and more ambitious purpose.


    “I even imagined that you might be doing this on someone else’s orders.Yet, I''ve overestimated you."


    Quartney nced in multiple directions and bellowed, “Who are you?! How dare you sneak into the


    lustus Sect! Come out right now!"


    “You''re so short-tempered."


    James slowly rose from his seat.


    Quartney and Cerise had looks of bewilderment on their faces.


    “Didn''t...Didn''t you faint after drinking our liquor? How are you still..."

    James scoffed.


    “That Yorsh drink? There''s no way a simple trick like that can bring all of us down.”
