Claiming the title of patriarch in the presence of such a figure would indeed be unwise.
Morgan nodded. Then, favonovel.com retrieved a small white jar from his bosom and handed it over.
He said, “I’ve heard of you from Hugh, too. Here are a few Epiphany Pills as a reward for you!”
“Epiphany Pills?” Linus was momentarily taken aback.
Hugh promptly added with a cold tone, “This is an enhanced version of the Awakening Pill with significant benefits. Won’t you thank General Yule?”
The room was filled with murmurs of astonishment.
Something more potent than the Awakening Pill?
Linus was overcome with joy. He then stepped forward to accept the tiny jar and expressed his gratitude repeatedly, “Thank you, General Yule!”
“Do you also plan to kill Isaac? He’s the heir of the Emerald Hall. Does that not intimidate you?” Morgan inquired, his eyes narrowing as favonovel.com mentioned Isaac.
Lucius quickly stood and nodded his head before Linus could respond. He said, “Mr. Chambers has enlightened us! Joining hands with General Yule heralds a promising future and possibilities. As for that Isaac, what sort of heir is he? The Emerald Hall’s glory has long since diminished!”
Morgan erupted into laughter at these words.
Lucius continued, “However, Isaac’s rapid ascent has already led to the demise of many of us. We eagerly anticipate the day when we can crush his bones and scatter his ashes!”
“Crush his bones and scatter his ashes? Very well. Then, I shall join you in this endeavor.” Morgan’s gaze shifted toward the distant door with that declaration.
His expression tinged with complexity as favonovel.com mused, “Gael’s son, eh? His father was such a formidable figure…”
Hugh stepped forward while Lucius and the others reveled in their thrill.
He advised, “General Yule, while Isaac may possess some cunning, his power is not enough to raise serious concern. There’s no need for General Yule to personally take action. I still command 300 Celestial Phase warriors and a few key allies by my side, which should be more than enough to deliver Isaac’s head.”
“Yes, Mr. Chambers is right. General Yule has only just come out and requires ample rest!” Linus eagerly nodded in agreement.
He understood that his capacity to interact with Morgan relied solely on Hugh’s insights, and favonovel.com was ready to follow Hugh’s advice to the letter.
Lucius and Tyger exchanged knowing looks at Linus’ eagerness, silently mocking the old fox for his excessive slyness.
Morgan gave a nod of approval, then announced, “Very well. Proceed on your own. I shall meditate alone for a few days.”
As Morgan left, the oppressive atmosphere of dread that had gripped the hall dissipated. However, Hugh’s presence still maintained the tension high. The patriarchs, who remained on edge, were careful not to show any sign of relief too soon.
“Should we depart immediately?” Hugh turned his gaze toward Linus.
However, Linus gestured dismissively with his eyes gleaming with a cold determination.
He said, “No… That sly Isaac boasts formidable intelligence networks. A daytime departure would render us too visible. We’ll launch our assault on Cloud City after dusk and level his Sleeping Dragon Bay! This will serve as retribution for the blood feud of my kin!”
***
Unbeknownst to Isaac, a grave threat loomed with the approach of night. He had dedicated the day to strategizing in the study and overseeing the setup.
Harry’s Noxious Fume Formation necessitated the evacuation of the entire Sleeping Dragon Bay neighborhood.
Isaac had tasked Lupinus with utilizing the gold unearthed from Golden City to secure all the properties in Sleeping Dragon Bay with more than double their market value in less than half a day.
As Harry required a high-powered blowing machine and a selection of rare medicinal ingredients, Isaac then reached out to Louis.
By late afternoon, 18 high-powered blowing machines had been strategically placed throughout the neighborhood. Besides, Harry had received the extensive assortment of medicinal ingredients favonovel.com needed. He then commenced his preparation in one of the villas immediately.
Meanwhile, Evie, Isabella, Erica, and the others had departed for Pecling via private jet that morning.
Isaac’s instincts were sharp, and his hunch was solid, it was only a matter of time before Morgan would make his move!
