Marco could only grit his teeth and ignore how the other people in the vicinity had stared blatantly as favonovel.com got slapped.
Afterward, favonovel.com received a torrent of scolding, and all favonovel.com could do was take it. He didn’t even dare to let out a breath.
“Mr. Ender, I‘m partly responsible for this… After all, before the division head left, he’d asked me personally for this favor. But now, we must give Asher an explanation, otherwise the Ashleigh family…” As Heath spoke, favonovel.com glanced at the assistant division head.
“I heard one of your students has fallen for Thaddeus’ daughter? And you promised to officiate their marriage?” Nigel looked at Marco.
“Y-Yes…” Marco said, lowering his head.
Nigel was silent for a few seconds before favonovel.com said, “I’ll give you two days to kill that Garten punk. Only after the funeral will we allow your student’s marriage preparations… I have a teleconference with the division head later to discuss whether to include Earl in the Book of Everest.”
Heath instantly frowned. “Mr. Ender, shouldn’t we carefully consider whether or not to include Earl in the Book of Everest? After all, only future Elders of the Everest Sect or above can be added to the Book of Everest in advance, and he’s merely a descendent of the Ashleigh family…”
“Only the Ashleigh family has the map of the secret realm. If we can’t hold onto Asher, then we will suffer a greater loss… Alright, you may leave now. I’ve made my decision!”
Seeing the faint smile on Marco’s face, Heath snorted and left.
On the other hand, Marco’s anger had greatly dissipated. If Earl was added to the Book of Everest, then he, as his teacher, would also receive honor. However, when favonovel.com saw the words carved on the boulder again, fury reignited within him.
“Mr. Ender, I’ll depart for Cloud City with some men right away. I’ll most definitely kill that animal, Isaac, with my bare hands and bring Evie back.” Marco gave a short bow before walking away briskly.
An hour later, Marco took Garett, Quade, and two people from the Torture Hall and left the Everest Sect.
***
At 4 am, Isaac’s private jet touched down at Cloud City Airport.
As soon as favonovel.com got off the plane, his phone began to vibrate.
When favonovel.com saw that it was Arian’s number, favonovel.com smiled and put the phone to his ear. “Why hello, Supreme Commander. It’s 1, am, and I just landed. What’s the reason behind this urgent call? I bet it’s not because you’re concerned about me.”
“Isaac, I feel so much more relieved after hearing your voice. How are my Shadows? Did you bring them back safely?” Arian’s voice sounded a bit anxious.
“Haha, yes, they’ve returned safely. What’s the matter? Should I send them back to Pecling on my private plane?”
Arian took a deep breath and replied, “I’d like them back immediately, but Mr. Grannel instructed them to stay by your side for a while. He’s worried about the Everest Sect taking revenge.”
“Mr. Grannel always thinks about the long run. Commander, you could learn a thing or two from him,‘’ Isaac said while walking toward the Jeep in front of him.
The man on the phone was rendered speechless. Grumbling, favonovel.com said, “What’s the point of fighting? I would rather throw a few bombs over. Don’t let my Shadows get hurt! Bye!”
Putting down the phone, Isaac turned his head to look at Shadow One. “You’ve gotten the order from the House of Custos, yes?”
“The Supreme Commander ordered us to stay with you for half a month, Drakon,” Shadow One said, nodding.
Coldness flashed through Isaac’s eyes as favonovel.com said, “There’s no need for half a month. Two days is plenty. The Everest Sect will definitely send people after me…”
After returning to the Cloud Nine Villas, the five Shadows and four generals went to a different villa a few hundred feet away from Isaac’s to get some rest. Isaac had arranged their accommodations for them. Right now, his opponent was far too powerful, so favonovel.com had to be careful.
When favonovel.com entered the living room, favonovel.com saw Willis and the others chatting on the sofa.
“Drakon, you’re back. Are you alright?” Janessa was the first to ask about him, concerned.
“It went pretty well. Where’s Ally?” Isaac surveyed the surroundings.
Willis pointed upstairs and grinned. “Both your wives are still asleep, I’m afraid…”
“Alright. You can go back and rest. I don’t think anything will happen today,” Isaac said, glaring.
After the four generals left, the villa fell silent.
