Chapter 4233
When the discussion broke out, the generals' gazes moved to Gonggong as they waited for a
response from her.
Gonggong had been too proud to ask for help just a few moments ago. Since the Hidden Hero Sect
had shown up and volunteered support, surely she would not turn them down as well?
Under everyone's stares, Gonggong's exquisite features hardly moved an inch. Instead, she
continued to ponder it.
The Hidden Hero Sect had shown up out of nowhere to help them, and it was surely a surprise.
The other generals were not aware of what had happened in the Hidden Hero Sect, but Gonggong
knew all of it. Two of the Hidden Hero Sect's Sect Masters had died in a row just two months ago.
That had resulted in Debra Gable becoming their newest sect master.
Debra, like Yvette, was one of Darryl Darby's lovers. Since Yvette was helping the New World Royals
take down the North Moana royal city and Debra had shown up to volunteer to help with protecting
the royal city well, it was a suspicious situation.
However, after a few seconds of silence, Gonggong raised her hands and said, ’ Open the door to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthem, and let the Hidden Hero Sect men come and see me."
Regardless of why those people were there, it was better to look before making any decisions.
"Yes, Great Marshal," the soldier said before he strode out quickly.
The soldier returned to the palace about ten minutes later with 15 powerful warriors. They
were dressed in the same white robes and sported the Hidden Hero Sect crest on their
bodies.
A broad and stocky man, who radiated incredibly powerful energy, led the group.
His name was Robert Horne, and he was one of the spies that Lord Kenny had sent there,
pretending to be a Hidden Hero Sect member.
’You're from the Hidden Hero Sect?" Gonggong sized Robert up as she spoke in an
unbothered tone.
"Yes, I am.”
Robert bowed toward Gonggong. "My name is Robert Horne, and I'm one of the Hidden
Hero Sect's senior members with Elder Fire. You must be the great Marshal Gonggong. We
heard that the New World Royals had joined the fiend race and had called upon an attack
on the North Moana Continent and that the tension is pretty high here. My sect master
and the other elders decided to send 500 of US to support you."
Robert's face was the picture of sincerity as he spoke-he had prepared all of that
beforehand, yet he could not contain the unease in his chest.
Gonggong was an incredible force in terms of both wits and strengths. He had to convince
her successfully, or his identity would be exposed, and there was no way he would get out
of that alive.
Members under Elder Fire's tutelage?
Gonggong's eyebrows furrowed at the words, half-believing. She had met Elder Fire once
before, and he was a mighty warrior. Yet she had never seen his followers.
Robert seemed pretty convincing in his words, though.
Gonggong opened her mouth and asked, "Of course, I'd be grateful for the Hidden Hero
Sect's great generosity and willingness to help. But I do have one question."
A question?
Robert froze slightly, but he maintained a look of calmness on his face.' Ask me anything,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGreat Marshal."
Gonggong smiled. "If my facts are correct, both your previous sect masters had died at the Five
Poison Sect. Your current sect master is one of Darryl Darby's lovers, Debra Gable.
Gonggong's features hardened slightly. "Yvette Lane, who is currently helping the New World Royals
to attack US, is also one of Darryl Darby's lovers.
"One of those two women wants to attack US, and another one wants to help protect US. Do you
think I should believe you?"
Gonggong's gaze zeroed in on Robert's face as she finished her sentence, tracking his every
expression.
Everyone in the palace turned their eyes onto Robert as well, waiting for his response as they
murmured amongst themselves.
'The current Hidden Hero Sect master is Lady Debra Gable?"
'Yeah, I would not have known if the Marshal had not brought it up."
The comments increased by the second as Robert stood there, nerves growing in his heart as he
exclaimed to himself internally, impressed.
Gonggong was wise to ask such a difficult question.
However, Robert was a wise man, too, and quickly thought of a response as well. He forced a smile
and said, "You're overthinking this, Marshal."
