Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown

Hearing about Zachary's condition, all of the onlookers were utterly shocked. They didn't expect that he would be this seriously injured that he was almost about to die.

"No! That's impossible. We can't just let him die!" Katrina was stuck in agony as she learned of Zachary's current dire status.

"What are you saying? The death of this traitor isn't worth pitying!"

"That's right! Maybe he deserved to suffer from this!"

"Before he dies, we should make him hand over the Five-God Compass. That's more important!"

Except for Katrina, Elva, Queenie, and Zachary's other friends who supported him, most of the members of the Celestial College immediately turned against him and treated him as a mere traitor.

"Dean Barney, we don't have much time. If he is really about to die, we have to get the Five-God Compass from him. We need it at all costs," the elder in blue urged as he looked at Barney.

"What do you think you're trying to do? Have you no shame? I won't allow you to hurt Zachary further!" Katrina shouted angrily as she heard what the elders of the college were discussing.

"I'm here too. I won't let you do anything to Zachary! He tried to stand against the enemies by himself, but this is what he would gain from it?!" Sophie screamed in exasperation.

"Katrina, don't be so stubborn. Don't forget that you're also a member of the Celestial College! You must put the welfare of the college first," one of the elders reminded Katrina.

"And Sophie,

iancee is a disciple of this powerful guy named Dominic, and he wanted to take her back. Because Zachary was unwilling to do so, they engaged in a fierce battle and he ended up like this?" Hearing everything that Tania said, Anne was in utter disbelief. Most of what she learned was very unexpected. She never once heard that Zachary's fiancee had such a powerful master.

"Logically speaking, Zachary should have asked your help when he encountered all these powerful enemies, but he didn't. When I arrived there, he was already like this. Well, thanks to his friends and some of the people from the Celestial College, who tried to protect him until the last moment, he barely managed to survive. Otherwise, he might have been just a cold body when I saw him," Tania said in a gloomy tone.

"Damn it! It's my entire fault. This might not have happened if I didn't quarrel with him. While I was cultivating in seclusion, he was being beaten to death by his enemies!" Anne took it hard and blamed herself. Although she had always been tough, tears welled up in her eyes and fell on her reddish cheeks as she couldn't contain the surge of her emotions.

"Don't blame yourself anymore. There's no way to undo everything that already happened. Besides, nobody wanted this, and no one expected that this would happen to him. Right now, the most important thing is to urgently find a way to save him," Tania comforted her and reminded her of what their priority should be from here on.
