Maisie could conclude that someone else ordered Peter to deal with Caspian! With Peter's current position in the Heavenly Stars Sect, he could not get the Killer Waves and Earthquakes Mine unless someone else gave it to him.

Besides that, using the Killer Waves and Earthquakes Mine in the place was unnecessary!

The phrase, using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, could not even describe how exaggerated it was to use the Killer Waves and Earthquakes Mine here.

It was as if inviting a Heavenly Stars Sect's elder over just to kill a mosquito.

It simply did not make sense.

Hence, the only explanation was Peter wanted to kill Caspian immediately.

Moreover, Peter must make sure Caspian was dead and had no chance to escape.

“Peter, who asked you to do this.” Maisie took a step forward, and the light in her eyes condensed. In Peter's eyes, it was like a knife pressed against his throat, and his heart was beating so wildly that it was about to shatter his chest.

“It's...” Peter was about to say the name, but someone suddenly let out a soft cough, which only Peter could hear.

In that instant, Peter quivered, and he hurriedly replied, “No one asked me to do this.

Every word I said is true, and I did it all because that was a devil cultivator!”

After recovering his senses, Peter insisted that he thought the person was a devil cultivator. Moreover, a devil cultivator's strength was much stronger than ordinary cultivators, and he only did that as he was worried for everyone's safety.

The reason why Peter used the Killer Waves and Earthquakes Mine was even more convenient.

He was afraid that the devil cultivator did not die immediately.

Maisie felt something was up as she looked at how confident Peter spoke, and she glanced at the crowd.

However, the disciples in front of her were either lowering their heads or were still in a panic or at a loss.

At that moment, Maisie could not find any clues.

Nonetheless, Maisie understood that there was no point in forcing Peter to answer her.

Not only that, the person behind Peter must have thought of the countermeasures, and they would have fabricated the reason behind how Peter got the Killer Waves and Earthquakes Mine

However, Maisie would never let the matter go.

Then, she glared at Peter, warning him, “Peter, you better watch your back!”

Peter was so scared that he almost wet his pants when Maisie said that.

Peter understood that his journey in Heavenly Stars Sect would not be so smooth anymore, but if he continued to ride on the influential person's coattail, there might be hope for him.

Nevertheless, Peter could only forcibly nod his head.

After calming herself down, Maisie glanced at the dense dissipating smoke below their spirit boat, and she ordered, “Go and check if there's any clue!”

Maisie knew that under the Killer Waves and Earthquakes Mine's explosion, those prepared for the attack could hardly escape alive, let alone Caspian, who was caught off guard. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Even if the person were fortunate and managed to flee, he would also be crushed and severely wounded, and he would die soon.

Since the explosion happened, Maisie hoped that Caspian was immediately blown to death.

That way, he would not need to suffer much.

After all, she did not dare to expect Caspian’s chance of survival as she was aware of the Killer Waves and Earthquakes Mine's force.

Not long after, the disciples that went to investigate return, and the news they brought over shocked Maisie.

“What did you say? You didn't find the corpse?” Maisie widened her eyes, and she was almost shouting.

The disciples in front of her were stunned by her reaction.

Usually, Maisie was acting differently than how she usually was.

After being dumbfounded for a moment, one of the disciples repeated what he just said, and he added, “Not only his corpse, but we've checked the remains on the ground, and all of them belonged to the monsters.

There were no traces of a cultivator.

We also saw the person holding a long spear before, but even if the person exploded, the spear should remain.

However, we couldn't even find his long spear, but even the fragments of the spear were not there.” A possibility that never existed before suddenly surged in Maisie’s heart when she heard the disciple’s words, and it raised non-stop.

Suddenly, Maisie felt difficult to breathe.

Then, Maisie immediately ignored everyone and carefully investigated the scene in person.

Even though she did not specialize in searching a place, Maisie could still tell from the area that there were no traces of a cultivator at the scene.

“Perhaps... Casper managed to escape? But... But where did he go?” Maisie was confused.

Later, Masie looked at Peter, who stood at the back of the crowd.

She noticed that Peter's complexion was as white as a sheet, and his eyes flashed with disbelief and panic.

“That's right.

Caspers surely alright.

However, he might be injured, so he’ s hiding somewhere else,” Maisie pondered for a moment and ordered, “Everyone, search the place again, and don't walk out of my line of sight.

Maisie had her reasons for doing it.

Finally, she was sure that someone was ordering Peter to get rid of Caspian, and that person was willing to use a powerful fatal weapon

Nonetheless, Maisie could not guarantee that no one else in the group was being ordered to do the same, and it was just that they did not show up yet.

If Caspian was severely injured and hiding quietly to heal his wounds far away from them, the person might once again attack Caspian if they searched and found him.

If that happened, it would be too unfair for Caspian as he might have avoided the fatal weapon, but he could not dodge the evildoer.

Maisie understood Caspian'’s situation well.

Her beloved junior not only had astonishing vitality, but his body was also comparable to cultivators of her realm, and his self-healing ability was even more terrifying.

Hence, as long as Caspian did not die, he would reveal himself in the end.

Additionally, Maisie also planned that once they left the place, she would send out someone she trusted to investigate the site again to check whether they could find traces of Caspian.

As for Peter and the person ordering him, Maisie would never be so gentle on them anymore even if she had a good temper as the matter involved Caspian.

She would surely make them pay the price for the incident!

Ill never let you get away with this, regardless of whether Casper is fine or not,” Maisie thought.

At that moment, Caspian only felt as if his body was burnt by fire.

The immense pain was like his internal organs were scorched and crushed, and his bones were pulled apart and ground into powder.

He opened his eyes in a daze, and he noticed that he seemed to be floating on snow.

Soon, he smelled a sweet fragrance.

However, Caspian’s mind buzzed as if countless crazy bees were in them, and he could not think straight.

"What's happening...” Then, Caspian'’s eyes felt heavy, and he was about to pass out again.

Next, Caspian felt as if he touched something smooth and full of elasticity.

"Hey! You jerk! You still have such a thought at this time? You didn't change at all!”

Caspian seemed to faintly hear a female's voice, and it sounded familiar, but he could not recall where he heard it before.

"How dare you bully me?! I'm going to beat you up.”

With a loud thud, Caspian was ruthlessly hit on the head, and he immediately fainted.
