When the entire incident on Mt. Thunder was happening, Terentville citizens noticed the strange air around their city.
Many local freelance journalists reported on the incident, which almost immediately went viral online. Additionally, some blurry footage was posted of combat aircraft bombing a snow-capped mountain range.
However, the state explained that it was simply a military exercise and assured citizens they had nothing to worry about.
Quincy and the others knew that it was not just a military exercise. They knew that something turbulent must have happened in Terentville. Unfortunately, they were far away in Cansington and were not able to further investigate what exactly went down.
The few women gathered together all shared the same concerned look.
Cynthia appeared nonchalant on the surface but was an anxious wreck about the situation inside.
The night passed by silently.

The following day, a large number of troops appeared in Mount Thunder Sect’s territory, which was situated a few hundred kilometers away from Terentville.
The troops consisted of the Black Dragon Army’s soldiers from the Southern Plains, the Red Flame Army’s soldiers from the Capital, and the Blithe Army’s soldiers from the Western Border.
The three armies were performing a joint rescue effort utilizing heavy machinery as well as employing the use of experts.
It took them an entire night to dig a passage through the rubble, and the ancient martial artists trapped underground were finally rescued the following day.
Tens of thousands of people initially participated in the Mount Thunder Conference. However, out of that amount only 3,000 of them survived.
The others were either killed when they got caught in the battle against the Spirit Turtle or were simply slaughtered by the military.
The remaining 3,000 people were all relatively strong martial artists.
Thea noticed Henry when favonovel.com came out and walked over.
“Henry, where’s James?” favonovel.com asked.
“Uh, about that…” Henry hesitated to speak.

“What?” Thea’s eyes widened and favonovel.com mouth hung open.
“He was injured by a sneak attack?”

“This?”
Everyone’s expression immediately changed as they all eyed Thea in fear.
None of them knew what happened and why such a terrifying energy suddenly erupted from Thea.
“What happened?
Jackson was not blown back by the force and still stood close to Thea. He, too, was looking at her.
He sensed Thea’s vigorous energy and promptly shouted in an effort to stop her. “What are you doing, Thea?!”
“Die!”
Thea’s hair whirled in the air wildly as favonovel.com stretched out favonovel.com hand toward Jackson.
Whoosh!
