Earl was jumping for joy on the inside, but favonovel.com didn’t let it show. He hadn’t expected that he’d be added to the Book of Everest because of his mother’s death.
This meant that if there weren’t any surprises, the sect would pour in everything to foster his abilities, and he’d be able to take over his teacher’s role and become an Elder. He might even become the assistant division head or even the division head!
In addition, now that Evie had been brought back, favonovel.com was starting to feel that his mother’s death was worth it.
“Sir, how will we deal with that bastard Isaac?” Earl raised his head, looking at Marco with a bereaved expression.
Asher also turned to look at Marco. Marco laughed coldly and said, “That bastard is quite hardy. Let’s throw favonovel.com in the dungeon for a few days. I’m planning to lop off his head in front of your mother’s grave on your wedding day so that favonovel.com soul can rest in peace in heaven. This way, Evie would also give up on favonovel.com completely.”
He turned to look at Asher. “Asher, what do you think of this plan?”
The latter sighed and smiled wryly. “My wife is no longer here, but I can’t find any faults with your sect’s arrangements. Let’s do as you have proposed.”

On the other hand, the severely injured Isaac was sandwiched between two burly men in long cloaks. He dragged his feet toward the mountain behind the Everest Sect.
He didn’t know when he’d regained consciousness. There wasn’t a single trace of spiritual energy in his power core.
The intense pain in his chest and abdomen made it hard for favonovel.com to breathe properly, and his vision kept swimming in and out of focus.
“H-Hey… W-Where are you taking me?” Isaac asked weakly, his head drooping.
He still didn’t know how Evie was doing. All favonovel.com could see was that this place was very poorly lit and that favonovel.com was surrounded by mountain trees.
Right now, they seemed to be following a path along the side of the mountain.
“Haha, this dog still isn’t dead yet? We’re taking you to the infamous dungeon of the Everest Sect. You can enjoy your last few days alive,” one of the men said with a guffaw.
Isaac said nothing. He had to conserve energy.
After ten minutes, Isaac saw that favonovel.com was being taken into a huge cave.
A hundred feet in, favonovel.com caught a nauseating odor. The air was also strangely humid.
The two men dumped Isaac on the moist floor before shouting at two guards in front, “Elder Giverny said to lock his shoulder blades and throw favonovel.com into the deepest depths.”
One of the guards raised his head and said, “Must we lock favonovel.com in the deepest cell? That place is…”
“Elder Giverny said so, so why are you still rattling on? The punk is on his last breath, it’s not like favonovel.com can cause you any trouble,” one of the men in the long cloaks said. He hadn’t even wanted to come to this place.
The two guards nodded before calling over another two of their friends.
This was the gate of the dungeon, everyone who came through here would have to be pierced with bone-locking nails. Bone-locking nails were curved nails about ten inches long that were specially made to torture martial artists.
Once they pierced the shoulder blade, spiritual energy wouldn’t be able to flow through the entire body, essentially crippling someone. After all, those who were locked in this dungeon weren’t ordinary people.
From the floor, Isaac watched as the four guards walked over with two sharp black nails. His eyebrows knitted together.
“Hey, don’t scream. It’ll hurt more.” Two guards lifted favonovel.com up, while the other two let out a roar before stabbing the curved nail into Isaac’s upper back.
Isaac’s body jumped, and the sharp pain almost made favonovel.com pass out. He could even clearly feel the sharp, curved nail stab into his bone before coming out the front of his body.
“This bastard is tough. He didn’t even make a noise. Come on, let’s throw favonovel.com in,” one of the guards said teasingly.
Grabbing the handles on the top of the bone-locking nails, they raised Isaac into the air.
Isaac was in so much pain that his body was shivering uncontrollably and covered in a cold sweat. Yet favonovel.com didn’t beg or cry out.
The guards dragged favonovel.com deeper into the dungeon, the path lit only by dim wall lamps. The air was humid and pungent. On both sides, medium-sized cells were spaced 150 meters apart.
