420 Chapter 419
Keira immediately looked toward the entrance upon hearing this.
For some reason, although the voice of the Sect Leader was a bit off and hoarse, just like last time, there was a familiar quality to it.
Especially that careless tone… It carried a hint of a playful old man’s vibe…
It reminded her of how her master often spoke.
As she pondered, she saw a familiar figure standing at the door!
Dressed in a gray training outfit, the Sect Leader had short, rugged hair and exuded a wild charm as he stood there with his hands behind his back.
Keira couldn’t make out his face because the Sect
Leader was actually standing with his back to them, his hands behind him, like a martial arts expert!
Keira twitched the corner of her mouth.
James immediately leaned in and whispered in her ear,
“The Sect Leader is showing off again.”

Keira was perplexed.
Lady Gill also saw him and immediately sneered. “Master Freeman, I’ve been here for ten minutes, and you’ve only arrived now!”
Although this was clearly a remark tinged with sarcasm, the Sect Leader seemed not to notice and
simply smiled. “Hey, even though I’m getting on in years, I do practice martial arts after all. It’s normal for me to be quicker on my feet than you all!”
Lady Gill felt like she was punching cotton, with a deep sense of powerlessness.
She took a deep breath, then pointed at Keira. “Master Freeman, what do you mean by what you just said? Are you intending to defend this Outer Sect Disciple?”
“How is that possible?”
Trevor immediately denied it. “The matters of the
Freeman Sect must follow the sect rules! How can we
bend the law for personal gain?!”
Lady Gill’s expression relaxed a bit.
But then she heard the Sect Leader say, “I’m
considering Austin’s reputation here. He’s a nominal

disciple of our fifth brother and has made quite a name for himself in Clance over the years. Everyone thinks his martial arts are very strong. If we punish this Outer Sect girl, wouldn’t it mean that his getting bullied by – an Outer Sect disciple would spread everywhere? Austin, are you sure you want to lose face like this?” These words made Austin hesitate slightly.
He cared about face more than anything in his social
circle!
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have insisted that he had slept with Mary, just to show off, right?
The fact that he was beaten hadn’t yet spread…
If everyone found out, indeed, he would lose face.
As Austin was conflicted, Lady Gill sneered. “Master Freeman, you’re truly silver-tongued! Your Outer Sect Disciple breaks the sect rules and bullies a nominal disciple, yet you want to push the blame onto the victim? Are you going to ask my son why this Keera didn’t hit anyone else but him?”
Without hesitation, the Sect Leader asked, “Right, that’s what I want to ask. Why didn’t she hit anyone

else but you? Austin, shouldn’t you reflect on yourself? Is there something about you that’s asking for a beating? Or maybe you have ‘I need a punch’ written on your face?”
Lady Gill, furious, stood up, “Trevor, you…!!”
“Oh my, don’t get angry, Lady Gill. Anger brings wrinkles so easily! Alas!”

With his customary insouciance, Trevor said, “Besides, children have their own fortune. Our sect may have this rule, but if my son were beaten, I definitely wouldn’t seek revenge for him. I’d tell him to practice his martial arts and find a chance to hit back…”
Lady Gill sneered. “That’s you, not me! Your Freeman family is a martial arts family, so everything with you is about proving through force but we, the Gill family, are merchants, so we must proceed by legal and proper means! Master Freeman, if you insist on not using the sect rules to punish this Outer Sect Disciple, then I’ll have no choice but to resort to other
measures and call the police!”
“That won’t be necessary, that won’t be necessary…”
Trevor waved his hand but still didn’t turn around.

“We’re both decent families. How about this? I can
contact Uncle Olsen and have him come to apologize to you.”
Lady Gill’s eyes lit upon hearing this, and then she
scoffed. “Don’t try to tempt me with a handsome man! Let me tell you, I have a husband, and that trick won’t
work on me!”
Trevor coughed slightly. “What handsome man? What are you talking about? Aren’t we all friends here? Uncle Olsen’s daughter hit your son, so it’s only right for him to apologize… If you don’t want him to come over for fear of making your husband jealous, just let him come here! We can all talk it over.”
Lady Gill scoffed. “Stop talking nonsense here, Trevor. From the moment you arrived you’ve turned your back on me. What’s that supposed to mean? Do you think I’m not pleasant to the eyes? Or do you think looking at my face will give you a stye?”
“How could that be?” Trevor chuckled. “Lady Gill is as beautiful as a goddess. When you were young, you were known as a great beauty of Clance. Didn’t we just meet recently? I just… well, it’s a bit inconvenient, and I’m afraid my appearance might damage the integrity

of the Freeman Sect!”
Lady Gill said angrily, “Stop making excuses! I think you’re just looking down on me because I’m a woman! That’s why you’re being so disrespectful. Trevor, you don’t plan to deal with this matter with your back turned the whole time, do you?”
“That’s impossible…” Trevor quietly sighed, “Lady Gill, you absolutely insist on me facing you, it’s not that I can’t do it…”
if
Keira had been watching Trevor closely, only uncertain of his appearance. Upon hearing this, her eyes lit up slightly.
Then she saw Trevor pause for a moment, and finally, slowly, very slowly, he turned around…
