Chapter 1345 Looking For Someone
“Desmond, y-you’re unbelievably shameless!” Cecilia stood up furiously, wanting to give Desmond a slap.
Unfortunately, the second she stood up, her body felt weak, and even her martial energy could not be summoned.

“Stop trying to resist, Lady Jingle. Just do as you’re told. I promise to treat you well,” said Colton, a sly smile
creeping up his lips as he reached out to touch Cecilia’s face.
“Lady Jingle, run!”
Just then, the two disciples of Crimson Palace, who had been standing behind Cecilia, pulled out their swords and
aimed them at Colton.
They each took a side and charged at Colton.
Seeing that, Colton snorted, grabbed the disciples’ swords, and twisted them hard.

The swords broke, their other halves in Colton’s hand.
Immediately after that, Colton waved his hand, and a cold glint flashed.
A wound appeared on each of the disciples’ necks. It then enlarged, and blood gushed out of them.
Cecilia’s eyes widened as she witnessed the disciples’ horrifying death. Though she was too weak to move, she still
forced herself to knock Colton over.
Colton reached out and grabbed her wrist, putting her under his control.
“Let me go, you monster. I dare you to kill me!” Cecilia yelled furiously.
However, Colton seemed unbothered by her words. In fact, the more she scolded him, the happier he felt.
“Well done, Lord Cowper. I’ll order someone to bring you the enhancement pills once I get back,” Colton said to
Desmond.
“You’re being too polite, Mr. Colton. If that’s the case, I shall graciously accept your offer. Should I get someone to
send you back?” Desmond asked flatteringly.
“No, it’s okay. We can go back on our own.” With that, Colton lifted Cecilia and walked out of the precinct.
Cecilia struggled with all her might. “Let me go, you b*stard!”
Sadly, no matter how hard she struggled, she could not break free from Colton’s grip. At her wits’ end, she bit him
on the shoulder.
“Ah!” Colton shrieked in pain, immediately landing a chop on the back of Cecilia’s neck.
Just like that, Cecilia passed out. At the same time, Colton cursed under his breath, “This lady is quite feisty. I like it.”
Meanwhile, Millie instructed a few men to guard the back of the mountain at Crimson Palace. After all, the cave was

As the sky slowly got darker, Millie glanced at the time and asked, “Why isn’t Cecilia back yet? Don’t tell me
something happened to her.”
Millie kept feeling uneasy, and her eyelids kept twitching.
She went to the palace’s entrance and waited anxiously for Cecilia’s return.
Soon, the sky turned dark, with countless stars twinkling in the sky. It was way past dinnertime, yet there was no
news from Cecilia. It made Millie worry terribly.
After all, Cecilia never stayed out so late. Now that so much time had passed, her absence could only mean that

look for Cecilia. The former wanted to find out what was going on.
Just as Millie was about to walk out of Crimson Palace with a group of people, they spotted someone slowly making
his way toward them.
Seeing that, Millie frowned and ordered the others to be on guard.
