As the crowd watched, the assessment disciples descended into disarray.
“This… This seems to be true?”
“Could this be true?” one disciple pondered aloud, staring at the cloth bag. “I once journeyed over mountains and rivers to the Lily Pavilion. From a distance, I recognized their emblem. It does seem legitimate!”
Other disciples became even more confused upon hearing this.
Someone subconsciously said, “It seems like it’s really not an assessment!”
“Oh my god… What a coincidence?”
“It really isn’t an assessment.”
Many people’s faces turned pale with fear.
Hearing their discussions, Henry said, “It’s over…”
He thought favonovel.com had escaped a disaster, but now it was all over because, in terms of cultivation, the Tanjen Organization was utterly powerless against the people of Ironpeak Island. And upon hearing their discussions, there was no need for answers anymore.
Aether and Egbert couldn’t help but smile at the unfolding scene.
Turning to his companions with a smug look, Aether asked, “Master Husan, what’s your take on this? And what about you, fellow disciples?”
Egbert’s face was flushed with excitement. “It‘s proven that they only supported the brat Calsberg out of misunderstanding. You can take action now without mercy, hehehe…”
Husan’s expression darkened as favonovel.com scanned the people of Ironpeak Island, who gave slight nods. With the situation clarified, there was no room for hesitation.
After exchanging glances with Husan, Egbert quickly looked down.
But at that moment, in an instant, the thousands of disciples below turned hostile again, their eyes filled with determination and no trace of fear.
“Even if we mistakenly thought it was an assessment, so what? Even if it’s not an assessment, we still support Master Calsberg!”
“Yes, we pledge our lives to support Master Calsberg!”
“We fight for Master Calsberg!”
Gasp!
Aether’s smile froze instantly. Egbert’s face suddenly stiffened. Husan and the people of Ironpeak Island were also stunned.
Henry was dumbfounded as well. He couldn’t understand what they were saying.
He wondered how they could pledge their lives to defend Remus without any vested interests yet still choose to stand by him.
Then another disciple said, “Since ancient times, only the Tanjen Organization has been widely recruiting disciples in alchemy. Master Calsberg is giving all of us aspiring alchemists a chance. For this opportunity, I will protect Master Calsberg!”
Another disciple said, “That day at the Violet Sanctum Organization, Master Calsberg promised to provide medicine to the cultivators without discount. I admire Master Calsberg’s integrity and his character. I am willing to die for him!”
Another disciple said, “Master Calsberg wrote down all his lifelong experiences into a manual and handed it over to the Tanjen Organization without reservation. Only by being by his side can we learn the true skills. I swear to defend Master Calsberg!”
“Defend Master Calsberg!”
When the praises from below resounded, Aether and Egbert regained their senses. Their faces changed dramatically. They wonder what they would do if they continued to defend Calsberg and Husan didn’t take action.
“Shut up!” Egbert shouted first, “What nonsense are you all talking about?! Nonsense! That brat Calsberg is ruthless. He kills people indiscriminately, completely lawless!”
“As for his alchemy skills, it’s laughable! Even if his alchemy skills are high, can they surpass those of my Lily Pavilion in the entire True World?!”
The disciple retorted instantly, “Master Calsberg defeated Lily Pavilion!”
“You, Lily Pavilion, only have your eyes on the Holy Land. When have you ever cared about us?”
“If we’re discussing despicableness and stealing fame, it’s your Lily Pavilion! In the past, when you saw the Tanjen Organization growing stronger, you intentionally looked for reasons to absorb them. When you couldn’t absorb them, you instigated the people of True World to exterminate the Tanjen Organization. Who’s the one being hypocritical!”
“Rubbish, Lily Pavilion, won’t even go to the dogs!”
Hearing this, Egbert was about to explode with anger. He didn’t expect that after revealing his identity, instead of making them obedient, favonovel.com would be met with curses!
His spiritual energy leaked out instantly, “A bunch of worthless ants, you dare to judge my Lily Pavilion! Today, this Sir Egbert will annihilate you all!”
His spiritual energy had just leaked out when there was a majestic surge of spiritual energy beside him, it was none other than Aether.
Aether also threatened with a darkened expression, “Since you already know it’s not an assessment, it means standing with Remus will lead to death. This is your last chance!”
His overflowing spiritual energy became more and more intense, even more terrifying than the blow just now that could have wiped out everyone.
