Chapter 1086: A Few Changes

Alex was called over by the leader the next day.

"You were right," he said the moment he entered the room. "We found Alchemist Han dead and buried in the corner of the garden. If we hadn't searched for it explicitly, we would have never found his corpse."

Alex gave a grim look and said nothing. This proved that someone was out there waiting to kill him, and they were going as far as they could to try and figure out more about him. 

But why?

"Sect leader Qiu messages me earlier. Senior Qiu Jianhong will be here at any moment to take you to the Sunborn Sanctuary. You are not to leave or meet with anyone until then."

Alex nodded. "I understand," he said. He was still not sure if he could trust the council members at all, but at the very least, not all of them would be trying to kill him. With their strength, he would be safe there than anywhere else.

"What about the event? Will we be canceling that?" Alex asked.
