Isaac had slapped Glenn many times without any resistance or retaliation from him. Isaac’s aura was not to be joked with. Old Yves was terrified whenever he recalled what had happened earlier.If Glenn was leaving, wouldn’t that leave him and his family vulnerable to Isaac's wrath?“Don’t worry. I’m the only one leaving. Third Elder and Fifth Elder will stay and protect you and your family.”The two elders were stunned. They were about to retort, but First Elder glared at them quickly, and they shut up.Jeremiah was relieved when he heard that the two other elders would stay behind. The weight just lifted from his shoulders. He gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t worry, First Elder; we'll do whatever we can to stall him.”“Alright. Go and tell your guards to get ready to fight. Make sure to get your hands on Evie when Isaac makes his move. She’s his weakest spot.” Glenn nodded his head in satisfaction.As soon as Jeremiah left, the two elders started showing their anxiety.Elder Ziegler
“Old man, do you know the consequences of your actions?” Isaac asked Jeremiah with a cold sneer.Aside from Jeremiah, his son Jacob, and seven powerful fighters, they also had around ten other martial arts fighters who were all in the beginning stage of the Amalgamation Phase. Jeremiah pointed at Isaac and roared, “Isaac Garten, I’m not going to let you go, even if it costs me my life!”Just before Glenn had made a run for it, he’d told Jeremiah that both Third Elder and Fifth Elder would arrive and help him hold off Isaac as soon as the fighting started. This was the reason for Jeremiah’s confidence.Isaac frowned and said, “Alright then, we’ll see what you’ve got.”He then leaped at Jeremiah and his troop at the speed of lightning.He knew that these people were just stalling him to buy Glenn more time. Although the Dusk Soldiers were brilliant fighters, they wouldn’t be able to resist Glenn for long.Isaac’s spiritual energy exploded from his body. His speed shocked Jeremiah. The o
There were broken limbs all over the ground, drenched in blood.Isaac’s face turned ice-cold when he realized that Glenn was nowhere in sight.A handful of Dusk Soldiers saw Isaac and Beefy Bob arrive, and all the color drained from their faces. Two of them hobbled forward and got down on their knees before Isaac.“We’re sorry, Drakon; we were powerless to stop the three of them from leaving! But don’t worry, the soldiers from the west are still chasing after them.”“Three people?” Isaac’s eyes narrowed into slits.“Yes, sir! Glenn Snyder and two other elderly-looking men.”“What’s the casualty?”“The death toll is 103, and there are 76 people injured,” the leader of the Dusk Soldiers answered through gritted teeth.Isaac waved his hand and said, “Tell the others to stop chasing after them. There’s no point anymore.”He knew that the death toll was high because there was too much of a power gap between Glenn and the Dusk Soldiers. He couldn’t blame them for anything.He turned around a
Colorino was a huge, vast land surrounded by thick forests that was largely occupied by the Colorinians and the Morrokans. 200 years ago, it had been the birthplace of the Deviant Cult, whose real name was Pentacle Witchcraft.Isaac had a task for Jeremiah. He had to find Joseph.In reality, Black Phoenix had always been keeping an eye on Joseph. At the moment, he was still in the Colorino area.Isaac only told Jeremiah to do it to see if he was a man of his word.Half an hour later, Jeremiah was still sitting in the living room with a solemn look on his face.His second son, Julian Yves, hurried into the room. There was a look of joy on his face. Father, the Dusk Soldiers outside have all gone! Drakon really means what he said. There isn’t a single soldier left outside!”Jeremiah nodded slowly. He appeared tired and old, as if he'd aged by at least ten more years all of a sudden.“Tell the Cadaver Guards to leave. Also, tell the others to find out Joseph’s whereabouts before midnight,
Evie was stunned for a while. Her cheeks flushed a bright red as she whined, “Since when did you start speaking like a pervert?”Even though she chided him, she still felt a warmth in her heart.At the very least, the person she got married to was someone she actually liked.Just as the two of them entered their room, Beefy Bob knocked on the door.“Isaac, Jeremiah is here, and he says he wants to see you.”“Let him in,” Isaac said with a nod.The door opened. Evie sat along the edge of the bed, while Isaac stood by the window.Jeremiah kneeled on the floor beside Isaac and said anxiously, “Drakon, we’ve found the whereabouts of Joseph Hockeny. He’s laying low in Southernham.”“Alright then, lead the way. You’re coming along with us,” Isaac said with a nod of his head.Jeremiah was shocked. He never thought that Isaac would want him to come along. He wasn’t sure if Isaac had any ulterior motives behind that.Under the night sky, a black luxury car sped toward Southernham, located in th
Joseph kept following Beefy Bob. When he saw that nobody else was around, he hurried forward with his sharp, claw-like nails outstretched, wanting to give Beefy Bob a nasty surprise.Under stressful circumstances, the human heart would pump even more blood during the fight or flight response, which meant that it would be even tastier.Just as Joseph was only a couple of feet away from Beefy Bob, the latter suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned around with a sinister grin on his face.Huh?Joseph was stunned. Shouldn't this fatso be afraid of him? Why did it look like he was smiling back at him instead?Suddenly, Joseph sensed two strong, powerful spiritual auras from the front and the back. He shuddered and hurriedly looked toward the front. Jeremiah was there, staring down at him with cold eyes.He then turned to look behind him and saw Isaac. All the hackles on his neck were raised at once.“I—Isaac?” Joseph suddenly had a very bad feeling about this.Glenn had warned him that he
"Where did she go?" Isaac asked with a frown."W—We don't know. None of us dared to stop her from leaving."Screech!The car screeched to a halt by the roadside. Isaac immediately took out his phone and dialed Evie's number."Evie, where are you?" Isaac asked in a low voice."Isaac, I'm on my way to the airport. If Glenn is really getting help from the Deviant Cult, that means my brother is in great danger. I'm going to look for him," Evie replied in an anxious voice.After Isaac left earlier, Evie couldn't help thinking about Glenn and his possible collaboration with the Deviant Cult. If Glenn was really working with the Deviant Cult, that meant he was no longer loyal. With her father gone and herself no longer under his control, his next target could only be her little brother in Neuport."Come back. It's not as simple as you think it is. Or, you can ask your brother to come to Cloud City instead," Isaac answered in a rather angry voice.Beep, beep, beep.The line on Evie's side was
Seeing the troubled look on Isaac's face, Allegra came over and slid her arms around his neck as she chuckled and said, "What's wrong? You don't look too happy to learn that your daughter was one of the best students in Southland chosen for the month-long exchange program.""Ah, it's not that. I'm happy for her, of course. Did you say she'd be gone for a whole month?" Isaac asked, snaking his arms around Allegra's waist.Allegra immediately blushed and squeaked as she tried to leave, but Isaac held on to her even tighter."You asked for it, sweetie. Can't blame me for this," Isaac said with a laugh as he lifted Allegra up and carried her up the stairs. "Let's take advantage of the situation and fully enjoy ourselves, hmm?"On the other hand, two transits later at the Lythorne International Airport, Evie finally reached Neuport.She put on some makeup in the female washrooms, put on a hat and a pair of sunglasses, and strode out of the airport dressed like a Gen Z youngster.She then to
