The moment the Ashleighs moved, everyone stopped.
Isaac’s footsteps came to an abrupt stop. He shot Samuel an icy glare.
Before coming here, Isaac had even made a trip to the Ashleigh clan estate to see Samuel. That was because favonovel.com wanted Samuel to stand on his side against Everest Sect and the Nortons inside the secret realm.
At that time, Samuel had readily agreed. He even told Isaac not to worry about his family patriarch. Right now, the entire Ashleigh clan was following his orders. But evidently, Samuel had betrayed Isaac.
As though favonovel.com could feel Isaac’s dark gaze, Samuel took a deep breath and raised his head to meet Isaac’s eyes.
Snorting, favonovel.com said, “Isaac, just accept your fate. You don’t have the right to fight Sir Lucius. Neither do I.”
When favonovel.com said that last sentence, favonovel.com had a mix of emotions in his eyes. They seemed to be filled with anguish that favonovel.com couldn’t voice.
Lucius looked at the Ashleighs standing behind favonovel.com and then at Linus beside him. Then, favonovel.com turned to face Isaac.
Seeing his stormy expression, favonovel.com burst out laughing. “Hahaha! What, didn’t I tell you before not to assume that everything is in your control? Do you see what I mean now?!”
“I’m a generous man. If you destroy your own power core now, I’ll let all those people behind you live. How does that sound? I’m giving you one last chance!”
When Caesar heard that, favonovel.com scowled. He pointed at Isaac and snapped, “Sir Lucius, we can‘t forgive this beast. He needs to be chopped to pieces! He killed so many of our people!”
“Shut up!” Lucius spat.
Right now, everyone was staring at Isaac.
Lucius had promised to let Mizar, Todd, and the others live so long as Isaac destroyed his own power core. If things had gone according to Isaac’s previous plan, and favonovel.com had gotten the Ashleigh clan’s support, they might actually be able to kill Lucius. But now, there was too big of a gap in strength between the two sides.
“Sir, don’t listen to that old fart. We’ll just die together!” Harry roared, his eyes turning red.
Mizar pursed favonovel.com lips tightly. Her eyes were cloudy with mixed feelings.
Altair opened his mouth, but ultimately, favonovel.com didn’t dare to say anything.
At the side, Lorcan frowned deeply. He stared straight at Isaac with a complicated expression, looking like favonovel.com couldn’t make up his mind.
It didn’t seem like favonovel.com understood what had just occurred just now, but favonovel.com could visibly see that Isaac’s powerful demeanor had weakened a lot.
In the next second, Isaac cackled loudly.
Pointing at Lucius and Samuel, favonovel.com laughed and said, “It seems like you don’t know that in the Temple of Drakon, we have this saying, ‘A real man stands tall. He would rather die standing than live kneeling.’ Hahaha! If you want to kill me, then come and do it. Even if I die, I’ll make sure you pay the price for it!”
Isaac was practically growling toward the end of his spiel.
“That’s right. I’d rather die standing than live kneeling. You old dinosaur, come at us!” Harry was brimming with pride. He looked like favonovel.com was ready to die for this cause.
Lionel felt relieved to see that, but favonovel.com was also terrified.
If they really wanted to go against both patriarchs, Lucius and Linus, all of them together might not even be enough.
“Hahaha, fine then. The men of the Temple of Drakon aren’t cowards! Since you want to die so badly, I’ll make that happen for you!” Lucius said with a ferocious expression.
