As Rose and Isaac approached with eyes red from fury, two Elders from the Ashleigh clan looked up. Their eyes were filled with tears as if pleading for mercy.
“Please, spare us. We were forced out of our will. Morgan forced us to come here!”
“It doesn’t matter if you were forced or not. Since you‘ve come here with intentions of killing my grandson and even targeting my great-grandson, you deserve death,” Rose reprimanded them sharply.
Before Isaac could interject, Rose waved favonovel.com hand dismissively and commanded coldly, “Take these people out and behead them!”
The bystanders, including Altair, Mizar, and several generals, were visibly shaken by favonovel.com order.
“No, please! M-Mr. Garten! Drakon, I’m on your side! I never dared to betray you,” Bon pleaded with Isaac immediately, seeking mercy upon hearing the sentence.
Linus trembled, turning to look at Bon and the others with a mixture of fear and disbelief.
Rose glanced at Isaac, waiting for his decision.
By this time, Isaac had regained his composure. He gestured with his hand, saying, “Keep the ones from the Norton family and execute the rest…”
Upon hearing this, Bon collapsed to the ground.
“You will regret this! You, old woman, will meet your end at General Yule’s hands! He will reign supreme! Death awaits every one of you!” Linus shouted as favonovel.com was dragged away by the Guardians. His screams of defiance and doom echoed through Sleeping Dragon Bay.
Following the muffled sounds from outside, everyone understood that the core experts of the Ashleigh clan had all been executed.
Rose turned to look at Isaac, who seemed to be lost in thought. She patted his shoulders and said, “Come with me. I have something to say to you.”
By then, Harry had already rushed over from the man-made lake and was kneeling beside the couch, administering treatment to Hera.
The rest began treating their injuries. Some chose to sit right where they were, while others went into the adjacent villa.
After executing Linus and the others, the seven Guardians quickly returned and took up positions around the villa.
Inside the study, Rose sat in a chair with Isaac standing before her.
Seeing Isaac soaked in sweat and looking as if favonovel.com had lost his soul, Rose frowned. Her eyes filled with tender love. She stood up, leaning on favonovel.com cane, and walked up to Isaac.
With favonovel.com wrinkled hand, favonovel.com wiped the sweat from his forehead and said softly, “Isaac, your father also had moments like yours… Every man goes through a process of growth, even if that process is painful and filled with helplessness. However, only by enduring it can one truly mature…”
“Remember, strength is crucial but not all-encompassing. Although you can’t beat Morgan now, you mustn’t rush for quick success… The path of martial arts was just like life itself. It requires one to grow step by step to stand tall in the world. Do you understand, Isaac?”
Isaac took a deep breath and nodded to Rose in front of him. “I understand, Grandmother. But I’m really surprised that you showed up today.”
“What’s so surprising about it? It’s my great-grandson’s sip-and-see party. How could I, his great-grandmother, not come?
“I haven’t even seen Isabella yet. Since you left the Emerald Gate, I’ve been missing you so much that I can hardly sleep,” Rose said with a smile.
After tidying up, Isaac went upstairs to change his clothes.
Lupinus, Lucas, and the other generals were already standing in the living room.
“Drakon, about the banquet…”
“Let’s continue it. Since we can’t do it in front of the house, let’s have it at the hotel down in the district,” Isaac said firmly.
Obi, who was dressed in a white robe, came inside and stood in front of Isaac.
He looked at favonovel.com with a smile. “You’re truly worthy of being Gael’s son for breaking through to the Shattering Phase in less than half a year since our last meeting… Now, it’s time to return this to the rightful owner.”
After favonovel.com finished speaking, Obi pulled out a purplish-red tiny box from his robes and handed it over to Isaac.
