20 female attendants swiftly wove through the crowd to ensure that each martial artist received an ancient Ruby Resurgence Pill.
Phineas and another martial artist stood at the very front of the square. He looked at the crimson pill the size of a quail egg in his palm, feeling both excited and afraid. He had betrayed Isaac and led the Ashleigh clan to slaughter the Yves family. He also leaked the name list.
After taking such a huge risk, favonovel.com was finally getting his reward. Once favonovel.com reached the Celestial Phase, favonovel.com would serve the Ashleigh clan. When that happened, Isaac couldn’t do anything to favonovel.com anymore.
“Everyone, this pill in your hand is a miracle pill that will skyrocket you straight to the Celestial Phase. You just have to take it, and after one night, you will become a top dog in the martial world!” the First Elder hollered, spreading his arms.
The thousands of eager martial artists immediately popped the ancient Ruby Resurgence Pill into their mouths.
Some of them grimaced. The thing they just put into their mouth tasted like rotting meat.
Its pungent odor aside, it was also immensely oily.
As soon as they bit into it, the taste hit them in the back of their throat. They couldn’t help but shudder.
After doing their best to swallow, the stench quickly disappeared. Instead, a gush of warmth entered their belly and flowed into their veins, meridians, and the rest of the body.
On the top floor of the loft in the east, Hugh stood there with a mask on. Behind favonovel.com were the three patriarchs, Linus, Tyger, and Lucius.
On the floor below them stood Caesar, Heath, and several sect heads and Elders. They were observing everything that was going on below from above.
“It hurts!” Suddenly, one of the martial artists in the center of the square wailed.
He clutched his abdomen and slowly fell to his knees. His facial features contorted from the pain in his belly. He curled up on the floor as favonovel.com wailed in pain, his volume increasing.
“Argh!” Soon, another martial artist also fell to his knees.
More and more people began to scream and shake. They grimaced in pain, keeling over or falling to their knees.
Less than three minutes later, the warmth that entered their bodies turned into boiling hot energy. It spread through all their organs and veins. The burning felt like boiling water flowing over every organ and crevice in their body.
Linus’ expression changed slightly as favonovel.com witnessed the two thousand martial artists below begin to fall one after another. He asked Hugh quietly, “Mr. Chambers, will they die?”
“At most half will die now… The remaining probably have seven days left to live,” Hugh said indifferently.
The three patriarchs felt their hearts stop. They had an inkling that the ancient Ruby Resurgence Pill would have severe side effects, but they didn’t expect these people to die.
There were over two thousand martial artists here!
“A general is made from thousands of corpses, and a tycoon rises from a sea of blood. Isn’t that the case?” Hugh smiled derisively when favonovel.com sensed the unease coming from the three men beside him.
“Yes, you’re right, Mr. Chambers. The survivors just have to storm through the gates of the secret realm and subdue those damned Guardians… Then, once the gates are opened, your most hated enemy, Isaac, will be torn to shreds.”
“Hmph, the young lord of the Emerald Gate, huh?” Hugh smirked disdainfully.
One floor below, Caesar and the others watched the scene unfold before their eyes in pure shock.
