But as Carrick reached the edge of the rune circle, Morgan suddenly let out a roar, leaping up into the air. He rose over 30 feet high and grabbed Carrick’s ankle.
The latter was already seriously injured and felt a sudden weight on his leg.
He looked down and shouted at Morgan, “You fool! Let go of me!”
Morgan glanced down at the black mist, then at Isaac, who had blood-red eyes and a furious expression. Taking a deep breath, favonovel.com tightened his grip on Carrick’s ankle.
Morgan hadn’t anticipated that Carrick would suddenly open the Upper Martial Gate. He wondered if Carrick had planned this all along when favonovel.com chose this location. But favonovel.com knew that if Carrick abandoned him, favonovel.com would either die at Allegra’s hands or be relentlessly hunted by Isaac.
With Isaac still having Alcott by his side, Morgan was practically alone now. He had to stick with Carrick to have a chance of survival and revenge.
Allegra, shrouded in black mist on the ground, hadn’t expected Morgan to make such a desperate leap and grab Carrick’s ankle to go up.
As favonovel.com raised favonovel.com head and wanted to attack Morgan, favonovel.com saw his upper body disappear into the passage. His lower body also vanished from favonovel.com sight as favonovel.com launched a black shadow palm.
The passage quickly shrank before dissipating. The dark clouds dispersed, and moonlight returned.
Allegra abruptly turned to look at Morgan’s two subordinates. They were already terrified when their general followed Carrick to the Upper Martial Realm. They then screamed and fled madly into the forest on either side.
Allegra, still shrouded in black mist, quickly disappeared before Isaac’s eyes with another black-clad figure.
Isaac hadn’t expected favonovel.com to leave without glancing at him.
Shortly after, a piercing scream echoed from the forest, followed by silence.
As the surroundings went silent, Isaac supported himself with his Skyrend Sword and shakily stood up. He looked at the spot where Evie had disappeared and closed his eyes, trembling slightly and revealing a look of immense pain. He then abruptly opened his eyes and yelled at the sky.
In truth, Morgan had only guessed partially correctly.
Carrick hadn’t planned to take Evie with him. He originally intended to kill Isaac before opening the Upper Martial Gate and reporting back to Kingsford.
When the Novafur Clan relocated to Neuport, favonovel.com had secretly collected the blood of a Novafur Clan member in the bottle.
Isaac sat cross-legged on the ground, taking an Awakening Pill to recover his energy while waiting. He hoped Allegra would return. But even if favonovel.com waited until daybreak, favonovel.com still didn’t return.
Judging by the battle last night, despite Allegra’s sneak attack, favonovel.com current strength had likely reached or even surpassed the early stage of the Spiritual Phase.
Isaac slowly got up and stood still for a long time. Then, favonovel.com turned to walk down the mountain. By nightfall, favonovel.com arrived at the entrance of the Sleeping Dragon Bay villa.
***
Alcott stood on the steps, holding Quillon and gazing outside.
Seeing Isaac appear, his worries instantly turned into a smile.
He laughed and told Quillon, “Little boy, I knew your father was lucky and would come back.”
But then favonovel.com frowned. “Hmm? Why is favonovel.com alone? Where is Evie?”
As Isaac approached, Alcott noticed his tattered clothes. The former hung his head as if favonovel.com had lost his soul.
“Isaac…”
“Mr. Alcott, please take me to the Upper Martial Reahn,” Isaac interrupted, looking over with bloodshot eyes.
