Chapter 178: Vice Sect Leader

The Vice Sect Leader was standing directly next to John, staring at the distant Elder Thame. She was a head shorter than John, but exuded an aura that made no one dare to look down on her. John was unable to tell what her cultivation was, since it was drawn inwards and hidden, but he could tell it was far beyond Elder Thame's peak Meridian Forging cultivation.

Elder Thame struggled to his feet and hurriedly dashed over to the Vice Sect Leader.

"Vice Sect Leader, I apologize for not consulting you first, but I did not want to disturb your cultivation," Elder Thame spoke out in a reserved tone.

John was slightly surprised. Even the brash and vicious looking Elder Thame, who exuded a battle aura of a veteran, was cowed by the Vice Sect Leader.

The Vice Sect Leader looked at Elder Thame with a cold expression and said nothing. The silence caused Elder Thame to panic even more.
