The Cult Master waved his sleeves as he walked toward the bed and sat beside "I'm thrilled tonight, hence I came here to find you. Haha!"
Ever since Monica married him at the island, the Cult Master had been treating her with so much love and care. he would satisfy anything she asked for as long it was not sexual, therefore the disciples treated her as if they were serving the Cult Master. Anyone caught disrespecting her might end up receiving the death penalty. However, Monica treated the Cult Master with no particular enthusiasm or coldness as she had never been truly happy ever since moving to the island.
Monica poured him a cup of tea and gently blew on it before asking "May I ask what made you so happy?"
The Cult Maser patted the empty space beside him and signaled for her to sit there before smilingly explained "Darling, I found an interesting book written by the Thirteenth Cult Master during his spare time in the library."
"The book recorded a type of ventriloquism which could change a person's voice. I find it interesting so I learned a thing or two. Let me show you!" said the Cult Master enthusiastically.
"Sure!" Monica nodded and looked at him with anticipation.
An old man's voice came out as the Cult Master opened his mouth "Dar...ling!"
The voice was different from his usual voice. It was the same 'Darling' word that came out but it sounded much older than usual.
He smiled and opened his mouth again to call out "Darling."
However, it was no longer an old voice. Instead, it sounded like a teenage boy!
Monica tried her best to smile with appreciation. "Oh my! This seems so cool! How did you do it?" Her heart was thumping uncontrollably as she said so since Darryl was right under her bed and nobody knew what would happen next!
What if he accidentally made a sound? His life would be over with if the Cult Master found out about it! Truthfully, she was not impressed by the Cult Master's ventriloquism performance but had to pretend as if she was interested in order to avoid Darryl from being found.
The Cult Master laughed and excitedly explained "I'm glad my darling find this interesting! If you like, I'm happy to teach you. It's actually quite simple, you only need to transfer the inner energy up from your energy field to your throat, then you'll be able to control your voice.
Darryl—who was hiding under the bed—seemed interested in this technique. He silently transferred his energy up to his throat which instantly caused his throat to feel different.
Ofcourse, he dared not make a sound! The Cult Master out there was no joke. If he was found out, he might immediately die.
Meanwhile, Monica's eyes wandered around, and smiled. "My dear Cult Master, you came all the way here to show this to me?"
All these years, the Cult Master had been trying all kinds of tricks and treats to entertain her. Although he did put in a lot of effort, they were mostly small tricks that Monica was not interested in.
Especially after what she had with Darryl the other night. She felt Darryl was the best man...
'Arghh!! What am I thinking?' Whenever Monica thought of Darryl, her cheeks would flush red.
Luckily, the Cult Master had not realized the change in her expression as he smiled and said with a gentle tone "Whenever I come across something interesting, you're the first person I'd like to show it to. Oh yeah, there's one more thing. The Eternal Life Palace Sect sent me a birthday gift just now."
The Eternal Life Palace Sect?
Monica frowned. "Why will they send you a birthday gift? The Heaven Cult and Eternal Life Palace Sect always had a bad relationship. They even kidnapped our Oracles not long ago. Why did they send you a gift now?"
The Cult Master nodded with a confused expression and said "You're right. Our relationship with them has always been strained." He then continued with a more hopeful tone. "However, the Six Sects' disciples had always seen both Heaven Cult and Eternal Life Palace Sect as the cults! The Six Sects had always worked closely with one another in trying to diminish our two cults! Therefore, however much we dislike one another, we shouldn't ruin each other since we're both against the Sic Sects. Perhaps this is why they sent me a gift as a gesture of friendship?"
A smile appeared on his face as he looked at Monica. "Guess what they sent me?"
"What is it?" she asked curiously.
The Cult Master said with a grin "A volume of the Supreme Mystery Scripture."
A shiver went through Darryl who was hiding under the bed as he announced the book title.
Huh?
The Supreme Mystery Scripture!?
