Isaac lit a cigarette. He thought for a moment before taking another one and handing it to Thaddaeus.
Thaddaeus waved his hand. Then, favonovel.com wheeled himself to the floor-to-ceiling windows.
“At this point, I can’t ask you to do anything else. I just hope you’ll treat my daughter better.” Thaddaeus’ voice was very calm. He sounded like a wise elder educating the young ones.
Isaac breathed out a smoke ring and replied, “Don’t worry. Of course I won’t hurt my woman. Is there anything else you want to say to me?”
At that instance, Thaddaeus wheeled back over. He gazed seriously at Isaac and said, “Right now, you can’t be too flashy. If you can avoid the Everest Sect, then avoid them.”
“What if I can’t?” Isaac frowned.
Most of the time, it wasn’t even favonovel.com who provoked them. On the contrary, they were constantly hunting favonovel.com down.
“The True Martial Families are extremely powerful. Yet, do you know why they all listen to the Everest Sect to some extent?” Thaddaeus asked seriously.
Isaac was taken aback. He’d never given this much thought before. “Do explain…”
“I don’t really know the details, but I heard that the Everest Sect possesses the most resources inside the Emerald Realm. What’s inside the realm can drive the True Martial Families crazy.”
Sh*t! Not the Emerald Realm again…
“Just what is the Emerald Realm?” Isaac asked Thaddaeus.
Thaddaeus smiled wryly. He shrugged and said, “I’m just like you. I quit Astraeus to join the Everest Sect in order to enter the mythical Emerald Realm… Unfortunately…”
Seeing Thaddaeus’ dejected face, Isaac chuckled. “Don’t worry, Apothecary is still treating you.”
Evie quickly reentered the room not long after favonovel.com left, even though the two men still had much to talk about.
When Isaac went downstairs, favonovel.com gazed at Heath’s room. He pondered something briefly. He waved his arm at Holly, who was in the middle of mopping the floor.
“Holly, when Heath comes out, tell favonovel.com that I’m setting up the villa next door. Tell favonovel.com to let Thaddaeus sleep in his room first,” favonovel.com said softly.
“Thaddaeus? But Ms. Lopez…”
Isaac nodded, and Holly immediately got it.
***
In the assembly hall of the Everest Sect, Caesar was sitting at the head’s seat.
Below him, there were several chairs lined up to his left and right.
Channing of the Norton family, Altair of the Jensen family, Samuel of the Ashleigh clan, and Mizar of the Stoner family were in attendance.
“Congratulations on succeeding the throne of the Ashleigh clan, Sir Samuel. As I’ve been busy lately, I haven’t had the time to congratulate you personally. Sorry for that…”
When favonovel.com saw Samuel, Caesar just remembered that the leader of the Intelligence Hall had told favonovel.com that the Ashleigh clan had a new leader. After Leroy’s death, Samuel passed the Ashleighs’ patriarch’s test and became the leader.
When Leroy was in power, he’d drawn a lot of attention. Thus, his brother, Samuel, had never caught Caesar’s eye. He only remembered this now.
Samuel laughed. “Thank you, sir. I was simply given a mission at a critical time. I hope to receive help and support from the other leaders here.”
“Samuel, there’s no need to mention that. When your brother was still around, favonovel.com was very friendly with our family. We only have one goal, and that is to kill Isaac and avenge our families,” Channing yelled through gritted teeth.
When Caesar heard that, favonovel.com laughed.
At the side, Mizar and Altair exchanged glances. Both of them frowned.
“Of course, killing Isaac is our shared goal.” Samuel’s expression was painful and full of hatred.
Caesar burst out in laughter. “It seems like you’ve inherited your brother’s unfulfilled wish, Sir Samuel. That’s good. Everyone, to tell you the truth, this is the reason why I’ve summoned you here today!”
