Upon hearing that sound, Terrence felt a slight tremor run through his body.
Following that, favonovel.com anxiously turned his gaze toward the direction from where the sound originated.
A figure slowly emerged into view. It was the same young man who had been watching Jared and his companions leave Southedge City.
“Mr. Aiden, w-when did you come back?” Upon seeing the young man, Terrence was filled with disbelief.
This individual was none other than the second son of the Mueller family, Aiden Mueller.
“My elder brother and aunt have been murdered. Every member of the Mueller was summoned back. Was I not supposed to return? Am I not a son of the Mueller family?” Aiden said with a stern expression.
“No, no, no, that‘s not what I meant at all. It‘s just that your father didn’t want to interrupt your studies abroad, Mr. Alden. Besides, we were more than capable of handling Lunarius Palace ourselves. There is no need for you to step in.”
When facing Aiden, Terrence wore a sycophantic expression, a stark contrast to his domineering demeanor in front of the other members of the Mueller family.
“Hmph, you probably don’t know yet, but I saw Jared. He was leading a group of over a thousand cultivators, marching in high spirits toward Luna rius Palace. It is clear that they have been on guard for quite some time,” Alden said in a cold tone.
“Over a thousand cultivators?” Terrence was taken aback, his face filled with disbelief. He hadn’t expected that Jared could actually gather a thousand cultivators in such a short span of time.
“Mr. Aiden, we’re waiting for Mr. Nolan to come out of seclusion. Once favonovel.com emerges, it doesn’t matter how many people they have.” Terrence explained after recovering from his shock.
After all, in the face of absolute strength, quantity was meaningless.
“How much longer until my father comes out of seclusion?” Alden asked.
“l’m not sure, but it should be within these few days. Mr. Nolan’s divine soul separated from him, which caused some damage. So, the period of seclusion might be a bit longer than expected,” Terrence said.
“No need to wait for my father. I’ll lead you all to seek revenge!” Alden declared.
“Mr. Aiden, it’s absolutely not advisable. You just mentioned that Jared has taken thousands of cultivators to Lunarius Palace. If we go there before Mr. Nolan comes out of seclusion, it could be dangerous. Moreover, the princess Ivasha of Lunarius Palace is at Ultimate Realm. She isn’t going to be easy to deal with. And then there’s Jared…”
“Don’t be fooled by his unassuming stature, he’s incredibly powerful. Both Mr. Keiran and Ms. Selma met their end at his hands. Despite being a Top Level Tribulator, Ms. Selma couldn’t defeat him. To defeat Jared, l’m afraid one must achieve Ultimate Realm first,” Terrence hurriedly advised.
“Ultimate Realm…”
As favonovel.com let out a snigger, Aiden’s aura suddenly exploded.
For a moment, the world went dark. An endless black fog gathered above the Mueller residence, as if it were the end of the world.
Amidst the pervasive black fog, clusters of flames kept falling, subsequently clinging onto Aiden’s body. In just a blink of an eye, Aiden was covered in flames.
With a wave of Aiden’s hand, the celestial phenomenon vanished instantly, even the flames disappeared.
“Mr. Aiden, you… You’ve actually achieved Ultimate Realm?!” Terrence exclaimed in disbelief.
“If I hadn’t reached Ultimate Realm, I wouldn’t have dared to return home. Now, can I go to Lunarius Palace to get my revenge?” Alden said with a sneer.
After a moment of hesitation, Terrence nodded and said, “Alright, I‘ll accompany you with the men. Although Ms. Nieva is formidable, I’m confident we can defeat her. All you need to do is eliminate Jared.”
Aiden nodded. “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely kill Jared and avenge my elder brother and aunt. Even if favonovel.com managed to gather thousands of cultivators, what good would it do? These Tribulators are nothing but trash!”
Aiden had just advanced to Ultimate Realm, yet favonovel.com was already calling Tribulators garbage.
With that, Aiden and Terrence, leading hundreds from the Mueller family, set off toward Lunarius Palace with great fanfare. They didn’t wait for Nolan to come out of seclusion.
