At 12:30 am, Heath arrived in front of the Ashleigh clan’s gate.
Dressed in a dark blue cloak, Caesar personally came to greet him.
With a look of distress, Heath hurried over to Caesar and fell to his knees.
“Sir Caesar, I am useless. That bastard Isaac found me out,” favonovel.com wailed into the ground.
“Alright, now. For you to come back safely is good enough…”
Caesar frowned and sighed. “The Everest Sect has lost its glory now.”
But soon, a wicked smile bloomed on his face. “However, this damned Isaac will die soon.”
“Sir Caesar, is that true?” Heath looked up at Caesar.
“Haha! Of course. You’ll know soon enough.” Caesar walked off with his hands behind his back.
If this was the Everest Sect, the sect leader would never have greeted favonovel.com personally. But now, the Ashleigh clan called the shots.
Using his status as an Elder of the Everest Sect, Heath quickly integrated into the alliance led by Linus.
At 1:00 am, the square was filled with two thousand martial artists from all sects. However, the excitement and anticipation from before had now changed into a feeling of unease. Ever since they stepped into the Ashleigh clan estate, nearly ten hours had passed, but they never had a sip to drink nor a bite to eat.
The entire square was also guarded by guards with swords. Even if one of them wanted to use the bathroom, a guard had to follow them. They felt like prisoners.
Suddenly, several figures appeared before them.
Several Elders from the Ashleigh clan slowly walked on stage in extravagant cloaks.
The First Elder looked down at the two thousand people below and smiled amicably. “Everyone, thanks for making the journey over… Tonight must be the most exciting night in your life since you became a martial artist. That’s because all of you here will improve extraordinarily and attain the Celestial Phase instantly.”
He spread his arms, and a powerful shockwave of spiritual energy spread through the air.
The countless martial artists below didn’t even have time to react before they felt a terrifying blast of spiritual energy greet them.
After a momentary panic, everyone looked up in admiration.
“That’s right! Just like me. This is an opportunity given to you by the Ashleigh clan, one of the True Martial Families!” the First Elder continued in a booming voice.
Several martial artists below tried to suck up by exclaiming, “Long live the Ashleigh clan!”
“Long live the Ashleigh clan!”
More and more people began to shout with their arms raised. After all, every martial artist craved power. Power meant honor, wealth, and status!
The First Elder saw that it was nearly time. He waved his hand and said, “Alright, all of you need to take this red spiritual pill. Then, you’ll be able to cast off your old shell and transform into a new version of yourself.”
As soon as favonovel.com finished speaking, favonovel.com looked toward a loft to the east of the square.
On the balcony of the highest floor, Hugh stood at the very front with a mask covering his face. He gave the First Elder a slight nod.
Soon, several female attendants quickly entered the square with trays. In each tray were a hundred red pills the size of quail eggs arranged neatly in rows.
