After hanging up, Leroy glanced at the elder beside favonovel.com and said, “Tell every final-stage Celestial Phase fighter to follow me to Cloud City at once!”
Less than half an hour later, more than 200 powerful fighters left Gayton and headed for Cloud City.
The sun was starting to rise.
Channing and Heath were still sleeping in the mansion next to Isaac’s. After all, they’d rushed to Cloud City overnight and needed rest.
Loud footsteps were heard from the outside.
A man dressed in a long robe walked up to the couch and greeted them respectfully. “Sir Channing, we’ve found five of Isaac’s close connections in Southland… They are his parents-in-law, brother-in-law, and a father-and-son duo in Layton. These people have very close relationships with Isaac. We’re still investigating the others. What should we do about them, sir?”
“Capture them all and bring them here,” Channing answered at once with a wave of his hand.
Next to him, Heath frowned deeply. He’d also overheard everything Leroy told Channing in their call earlier. It seemed as if Isaac would be facing three groups alone. Isaac probably wouldn’t be able to get out of it alive this time.
***
In a controlled airspace above the Eastern Sea, Isaac’s private plane was hovering steadily above the clouds as it was being refueled by an air tanker.
The plane had been flying for more than ten hours. Evie stayed in favonovel.com luxurious seat on the plane, unable to sleep a wink.
“Ms. Lopez, you haven’t slept at all, have you?” Harry asked, appearing with a mug.
He passed it to favonovel.com and said, “Here, have some chamomile tea. It’ll help you fall asleep. I’m sure nothing bad will happen.”
“Have Isabella and Erica recovered from the poison yet?” Evie asked, taking the mug of tea from Harry.
Harry nodded and said, “Isabella’s fallen asleep after taking the antidote. Erica will be taking hers very soon. There shouldn’ t be a problem there.”
“I’ll go over with you and check on her. The poor little thing,” Evie said with a long sigh. Sometimes, favonovel.com would see favonovel.com past self in Erica’s shoes. Lonely and helpless.
There were two private bedrooms on the plane. Isabella was sleeping in the bedroom farther back after taking the antidote. Meanwhile, Erica was in the first bedroom playing games on favonovel.com tablet.
Harry brought in a thick, gooey drink in a mug. The drink was made from the thousand-year-old rhizome. It looked vile, but there was a strangely warming scent coming from it. Anyone who smelled the scent would feel energized at once.
“Erica, come here and drink this while it’s hot.” Harry didn’t know how to speak Rippanese, so favonovel.com just gestured to favonovel.com with his hands.
Erica put down favonovel.com tablet and asked, “Is this the antidote sir risked his life for?”
Harry stared at Evie, who was staring back at him. They couldn’t understand what favonovel.com was saying.
“This drink is good for you. It’ll make you feel better and more active,” Harry said again loudly, exaggerating his movements.
Erica nodded and took the mug from him. She then drank every last drop of liquid inside it.
“Oh, it’s hot! And very spicy!” Erica looked like favonovel.com was in distress and stuck favonovel.com tongue out. She kept fanning favonovel.com tongue to cool off.
“M-My stomach, it’s burning!” Erica was starting to look even worse. She fell back onto the couch.
Harry was stunned when favonovel.com saw this.
Isabella has shown no such reaction when favonovel.com drank it just now. She has just fallen asleep right after…
Why is Erica showing signs of pain instead?
“Quick, get one of the flight crews here. We need a translator!”
