Xayden answered the phone, and the yells coming from the receiver shocked him. “I’d called you more than five times! Why didn’t you answer?! The nerves! Or were you sleeping like a log?”
“G-Grandpa, I… I was training and didn’t hear the phone ringing. How would I ever miss your calls on purpose?” Xayden endured the pain on his cheek, blood streaming down his face as favonovel.com spoke.
“Bring your men and return to Esteria, now!”
“Huh? Grandpa, what about the incident with the Divine Fists School?”
“The Council of Elders will look into it. You have to get back at once, do you hear me?! And you’re not allowed to return to Southland after that! Otherwise, get ready to receive your punishment!”
Xayden shuddered and hung up the call meekly. He didn’t understand why his grandfather demanded that favonovel.com return.
Cyrus was part of the council, and they decided to send Xayden on this investigation.
Didn’t favonovel.com explain it clearly in the report favonovel.com submitted?
Xayden could not comprehend any of this, but favonovel.com would never disobey his grandfather. Although his father was the current head of the Neal family, everyone took Cyrus’ words seriously, it was all because of Cyrus’ incredible powers and his identity as one of the council’s elders.
“Isaac, you jerk! In three days, let’s have a duel on Mt. Equest, where only one of us will survive. If I don’t see you, then your family will be in danger!” Xayden’s eyes glinted as favonovel.com shouted at Isaac.
Without waiting for a response, Xayden waved and scurried away with his subordinates.
“Just like that?” Isaac smiled. He overheard the conversation between Xayden and his grandfather.
Perhaps the Council of Elders saw through his identity.
How troublesome!
Evie looked at Xayden’s fleeing silhouette thoughtfully. She frowned and sighed.
“Evie, why don’t you stay for the night? It’s late,” Isaac suddenly suggested.
Evie covered favonovel.com mouth as favonovel.com laughed. “Where will I sleep, then? What should I say to your wife when favonovel.com sees me tomorrow?”
Ugh…
Isaac never thought about this.
Harry’s body trembled as favonovel.com held back his laugh when favonovel.com saw Isaac’s troubled face.
“I’ll be fine… I can go back on my own. But Isaac, don’t go to Mt. Equest three days from now.” Evie looked stern.
Isaac sighed and chuckled. “They’ll still come after me even if I don’t turn up, won’t they? Then, I’ll just show my face and let those geezers know there are many besides Astraeus whom they shouldn’t be messing with.”
Seeing Isaac had made up his mind, Evie lowered favonovel.com voice and said, “If so, you should watch out for yourself.”
With that, favonovel.com left.
“Beefy Bob, see favonovel.com off,” Isaac called out before entering the house.
Harry immediately caught up with Isaac and stretched out his hand, taking out a bottle smaller than his palm. He passed the bottle to Isaac, saying, “Boss, here’s something good for you…”
“What’s this? It can’t be aphrodisiac pills, can it?” Isaac glanced at Harry suspiciously.
Harry’s mouth twitched. He whispered to Isaac, and Isaac’s face changed.
Isaac laughed and said, “You’re really something. Alright, I’ll be your test subject for once!”
Harry rubbed his hands in glee. “Boss, if it works, my name will ring far and wide throughout the martial world.”
“Go and take a nap. The Crowe family is still causing a ruckus, have you been frequenting the Red Moon Clubhouse too much lately?” Isaac looked at favonovel.com out of the corners of his eyes.
Harry jolted and immediately waved in disagreement. “You’re doing me wrong, boss. I’ve been busy investigating the Crowe family in secret. They still think they succeeded in cutting off my herb supply. Don’t worry. They won’t be making much noise after this.”

She wasn’t the only one. Eugene was lying awake on the ground floor too.
