Rean nodded in response. “True. However, we also made the storage in a way it would be safe from other Formation Masters. Without authorization, no one can listen to the messages there, even if they have access to the formation itself. You can think of it as a password, but with Divine Energy.”
Yet, Rean didn’t see it necessary. “Well, I’m not going to block his access either way.”
Marcela and Roan didn’t understand, simultaneously asking in response, “Why?”
Rean then looked at Havek before explaining, “Roan should know it better than anyone else. Havek wouldn’t go back on his word even if it costs his life.” He then smiled as he asked Havek, “Havek, can you promise you won’t listen to the recordings there anymore unless it’s necessary?”
Havek wanted nothing more than to pretend he didn’t hear anything. Rean was right. Havek was so proud that he believed his words were worth more than his life. A good example of it was back in the Upside Down World. Rean told him he could bring Havek out safely but not the others. In the end, Havek refused simply because he promised to help his sect members escape. “Do I really have to?”
Rean shrugged his shoulders, saying, “Would you prefer me to block your access to the system’s components and information? I truly don’t want a stupid reason like that to block our cooperation in the projects we work on in the future. It would feel like we couldn’t trust each other, and you know this kind of issue could escalate in the future as tension increases.”
Havek obviously didn’t want anything to stop his work on formations. “Fine! I won’t listen to anything unless we need to. Man, you’re seriously no fun.” However, Havek was quite satisfied deep down. If Rean really blocked his access to the communication system, that would definitely affect their relationship.
The somewhat disappointed Marcela sighed after that. “Even though I think it’s the right decision, I have to admit I’m curious about what others said about me.”
Havek immediately answered that. “Oh! That I can help with. I won’t listen to the stored conversations anymore, but I didn’t say anything about the ones I heard already. You were definitely part of a few of them. So, do you want to know what I heard?”
Rean and Roan decided to leave the two idiots aside for now. Havek had a good sense. He definitely wouldn’t say anything that could create problems in the sect… or so they thought.
Suddenly, Marcela became enraged. “Those fuckers! Just let them come back to the sect. Their punishment will be painful, very painful!”
Rean shook his head in the end and pretended he didn’t hear anything. “Roan, won’t our members create some trouble in Glinyer?”
Roan nodded, saying, “Most likely, some will get into trouble. Did you forget? We recruited a lot of cunning, evil, and opportunistic people. Other than the loyalty to the sect, they don’t have any other restraints.”
”Is that okay?” Rean found it weird that Roan wasn’t worried about that.
Roan didn’t seem to care that much. “Why wouldn’t it be? They can’t say anything about the sect or the things related to it. The Soul Binding Contract will kill them before they try. Since that’s the case, let them bear the consequences of their actions.”
Rean was surprised by his response. “Could it be that you already expected them to break the city’s laws?”
Roan nodded in response. “If they didn’t, that would be a miracle. Well, not many would be caught anyway.”
Sure enough, Rean received some information a few days later of several members of their sect being captured or even killed. Most of them got involved in issues with other cultivators with big backings in the city. They might have the sect’s cultivation techniques and training. However, their cultivations were still low, with only some being in the Soul Transformation Realm. Naturally, they couldn’t do anything against cultivators at the Saint Realm and above. The only reason they even tried to cause trouble in the city was that they got ahead of themselves. They thought they were much stronger now, which most of them weren’t used to. In the end, they paid the price.
Rean wasn’t an idiot. He understood that other than letting people have some free time in Glinyer, Roan was also expecting to get rid of unworthy members. Sure, Roan invited a lot of ‘bad’ people so that the sect wouldn’t become a greenhouse. However, if these people couldn’t even understand how to restrain themselves now that they got power, then there wasn’t much need for them in the sect. Roan absolutely wouldn’t take revenge for the dead or try to free none of the captured ones.
Of course, although the majority of these cases were the faults of the System Sect’s cultivators, there were a few cases where it wasn’t. For those specific cases where the sect members didn’t do anything wrong, Rean and Roan at least tried to check what happened. Well, not really Rean and Roan, but the other sect members like the elders. It wasn’t like Rean and Roan would come out for every single time a sect member was wronged, after all. They weren’t that free.
Instead, Roan went back to cultivate after giving Luan a few more tests. As for Rean, he spent most of his time working on formations with Havek.
Last but not least, there were the sect members who also didn’t care about going out. Hage, for example, preferred to stay in the sect, taking care of the kids. Marcela, too, stayed behind and simply cultivated.
A week later, the people of the System Sect gathered at the beacon outside the city. Rean and Roan were expecting the sect members’ numbers to be down a hundred or two. However, they were surprised by what they saw.
”How come 4598 came out, but over 5200 came back?”
