Only until Lady Os’ head had been burned down to the bone did the trio decide to leave.
Shortly after Isaac and the others left the cave entrance, a purple moon began its slow ascent in the sky.
Within the entrance Isaac had forced open, a fox with fur emitting a ghostly blue glow leaped out from the cave. The blue fox was considerably large. It was over three feet long, with an additional six feet for its tail.
It looked up at the purple moon through the branches and moved lightly to the cave entrance. Then, it paused next to Lady Os’ skull.
With eyes glowing a ghostly blue, it cast a mocking gaze at the skull. Then, it dashed toward Requiemous Temple with a powerful leap.
Even Emily hadn’t anticipated that another demon had been hiding in the cave where Lady Os had sought refuge.
After Isaac emerged from the dense forest, his first action was to call Emily. Learning that Harry had awakened, Isaac let out a sigh of relief.
As the trio approached the helicopter, a short figure suddenly appeared in front of Isaac.
Isaac halted, stared coldly at Theron, and said, “Great barkers are no biters.”
Theron was furious after hearing this, but remembering that favonovel.com had come to seek peace, favonovel.com managed to contain his fury. He then said with a smile, “Man of the Ninja Lord, Mr. Garten, I formally invite you and the Ninja Lord to assist us in defending Requiemous Temple…”
“If you do, I will be deeply grateful, and your kind act will be remembered forever. No… The people of Rippan will remember it forever.”
Looking at Theron’s earnest expression, Isaac scoffed and said, “But I don’t need the people of Rippan’s remembrance! Move aside. I wouldn‘t want to step on you!”
With that, Isaac strode past, forcing Theron to move aside.
Watching Isaac and the others board the helicopter and take off swiftly, Theron clenched his teeth in frustration. He gazed up at the increasingly bright purple moon, his sense of ominous premonition intensifying.
At that moment, footsteps approached from behind. Ezra and Tyson approached one after the other.
“Master Theron, with your esteemed status, there was no need to humble yourself before a barbaric and crude Cynean martial arts practitioner,” Ezra said, his gaze angrily following the helicopter lights twinkling in the night sky.
Theron turned around and suddenly slapped Ezra across the face.
This was the second time Ezra had been slapped because of Isaac.
“How did a smart man like your father end up with a pigheaded thing like you?!” Theron glanced sideways at Ezra with disdain.
Did favonovel.com naively think that the mediums and Violet Ninjas could withstand the attacks of ancient evil spirits and demons and hold out for three days?
Dream on!
“Lord Tyson, let me give you a sincere piece of advice. If we can’t get the Ninja Lord and those few from earlier to help us, the chances of us successfully defending Requiemous Temple might be less than 30%. And that‘s the best outcome, assuming we all get wiped out!” Theron said coldly to the two in front of him.
Hearing this, Tyson’s face turned extremely grim. He hadn’t anticipated the situation to be this serious, nor had favonovel.com expected Theron to place such importance on Isaac and the others.
“What should I do, then?” Tyson asked in a low voice.
Theron pointed at Ezra and said coldly, “Take this fool with you and go to Mt. Soulin immediately to seek their forgiveness, especially Isaac’s. The Ninja Lord listens to Isaac, and they’re inseparable.”
