    Chapter 4016 Laid Siege


    Levi sat at the main table without hesitation while Larissa and Cheriette sat on either side of him. “A


    banquet isn’tplete without some entertainment. Get Pristine here to y the harp for us,” Sylvan


    said to his subordinate.


    Thetter promptly left the main hall, and it didn’t take long before a young woman in a white dress


    entered with a harp.


    “Greetings, Mr. Garrison and Mr. Webber. My name is Pristine,” she said, her voice so sweet and


    gentle that it brought a smile to everyone’s faces.


    “Mr. Garrison, Pristine is Prime Association’s top musician, and she’s excellent at ying the harp. I


    hope you’ll enjoy her performance,” Sylvan remarked, still grinning from ear to ear. Levi merely nodded


    and snuck a nce at the harpist.


    Wow. Pristine is indeed gorgeous. Cheriette and Larissa are undoubtedly stunning beauties, but not


    even they can measure up to her. Could Sylvan be nning to have her seduce me?


    After a while, Pristine began ying the harp, filling the hall with hauntingly beautiful music. Not only


    was it melodious, but it also had a calming effect on everyone’s moods.


    Needless to say, the group enjoyed their meal thoroughly, and Sylvan had also made it a point to avoid


    bringing up the topic of the Cordierite Association.


    As it turned out, Sylvan had invited Levi to Immortal Manor on the order of Prime Association’s


    headquarters.


    When they first learned about Cordierite Association’s army, Prime Association immediately buckled


    down and discussed the best countermeasures.


    In the end, they all decided that they should secretly protect Levi.


    However, Sylvan was aware of temperament and knew there was no way he could share the n with


    thetter directly.


    Thus, a better alternative would be to lure him away with an invitation to Immortal Manor. Besides, as


    long as Sylvan sounded sincere enough, the n wouldn’t arouse suspicions.


    In reality, Immortal Manor was a secret base built by Prime Association’s headquarters and used


    primarily by members who desperately needed a hiding ce.


    Therefore, Sylvan wasn’t lying when he said Levi was the first person in thirty years to be invited.


    On top of that, the real purpose of Immortal Manor’s Energy Gathering Array was to cut off all contact


    with the outside world.


    Even if powerful cultivators were to arrive in Lightspring, both parties wouldn’t be able to sense each


    other’s energy fluctuations.


    “You guys can stay here and cultivate for the time being, Mr. Garrison. After all, you have to be in your


    best condition for the battle,” Sylvan suggested. “As for myself, I have to get Prime Association’s


    fighters to set up a defensive formation, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to apany you for the next few


    days.”


    Levi nodded. Yes. That’s how Sylvan should be reacting to the uing battle! In any case, Immortal


    Manor does have plenty of spiritual energy, which makes it the perfect ce to cultivate. There’s no


    reason for me to turn his offer down.


    Realizing that Levi still hadn’t suspected a thing, Sylvan quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He continued


    chatting with the former for a while before finally taking his leave.


    Just like that, Levi, Larissa, Cheriette, and Thunder Qilin remained in Immortal Manor.


    The happiest one of them all was none other than Thunder Qilin. It had made itself at home and was


    having the time of its life flying and prancing about.


    As soon as Sylvan left Immortal Manor, he began preparing for the battle.


    Although it had already been decided that they’d initiate negotiations with Cordierite Association, it was


    still necessary to prepare for the worst. After all, if the talks fell through, Prime Association would have


    no choice but to take the alliance on.


    Well, our n’s off to a good start. I’vepleted my first mission, and Prime Association’s fighters are


    currently on their way to Lightspring. Since Levi has been appeased, I can rest easy knowing that he


    wouldn’t be able to leave Immortal Manor unless I activate the switch.


    Meanwhile, everyone in Astre Lune Sect had fallen into a state of panic.


    Levi and the others had left the headquarters, so only a handful of Prime Association’s fighters stepped


    forward to assist with their defense.


    With Cordierite Association once again assembling such a formidable army, Astre Lune Sect knew they


    wouldn’t stand a chance if they got attacked.


    Unsurprisingly, the stress got to Quirina, and she could neither eat nor sleep well. What terrified her the


    most, however, was how she hadn’t gotten a response from Levi. She had sent him several texts, so


    why hadn’t he replied?Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
