Chapter 368

The unexpected answer left everyone frozen for several seconds, some unable to fathom why the former Council President Crawford Shim would be mixed up with the Ming King of the Mingfuzhi Sect.

"Can't you tell?"

At this moment, Makarov stepped forward with a heavy expression and said.

"That fellow Crawford Shim has most likely already defected to the Mingfuzhi Sect."

Upon learning of the deaths of the other council members, the Magic Pingyi Society had long ago issued orders commanding all people within the town to evacuate completely.

For someone to appear at this moment, combined with the other party's identity, Makarov could think of no answer other than having joined the Mingfuzhi Sect.

He could not believe that a being as powerful as Ming King Ma Erduojier would seize Crawford Shim as a hostage—such a thoroughly foolish act.

Moreover, this time Ming King Ma Erduojier's objective was to slaughter the council members.

To activate the ultimate weapon, Feis, the three council members who hold the 'Keys' must be killed; the possibility of the 'Keys' rotating means there is inherent uncertainty.

Even the council members themselves cannot determine whether they hold a 'Key,' which is why the Mingfuzhi Sect slaughters all council members.

For this reason, Ming King Ma Erduojier would be even less likely to let Crawford Shim go.

Then the answer is very simple.

Hearing this, everyone—especially the mages of the Magic Pingyi Society—had looks of shock flooding their eyes.

The former Council President has defected to the Mingfuzhi Sect?

Setting aside that the previous-previous Magic Pingyi Society already produced two traitors, Jellal and Ultear.
