Chapter 1906: The Crisis at Heavenly Secrets Pavilion
“Stop, who are you?”
As they conversed, they arrived at the archway and were stopped by a guard.
“Sir, we have come from afar to seek an audience with Old Alfie. Please…” Aarav Lyons bowed respectfully.
“Old Alfie does not see visitors. Leave now!” The guard waved impatiently.
“Young man…” Aarav Lyons began again.
“Do you not understand what I said? Old Alfie does not see visitors!” The guard responded sternly, “If you don’t leave, don’t blame me for being rude!”
“A mere gatekeeper with such a temper. Your Heavenly Secrets Pavilion is quite something!” Stout retorted.
“What did you say?” The guard frowned.
“Do you not understand what I said?” Stout continued, “Guests should be treated with respect. Is this how you treat visitors?”
“Get lost!” The guard shouted and swung his hand towards Stout.
In reality, he was only at the late stage of the Otherworldly Realm and couldn’t gauge Stout’s strength. But feeling confident on the grounds of Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, he attacked without hesitation.
“A gentleman uses words, not fists. Didn’t your master teach you that?” Stout replied calmly, raising his hand to block.
With a muffled sound, the guard was sent flying a hundred meters away, landing painfully on the ground.
Stout clearly intended only to teach him a lesson; otherwise, the guard would have been reduced to a mist of blood.
“Bastard! How dare you act recklessly at Heavenly Secrets Pavilion! You must be tired of living!” Seeing this, the other guards rushed forward.
Without any further words, they all attacked Stout.
Boom… They charged quickly but retreated even faster. In the blink of an eye, they were all lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
“Each one of you has a bad temper but lacks strength. Heavenly Secrets Pavilion seems overrated!” Stout shrugged.
“You dare cause trouble at Heavenly Secrets Pavilion? Just wait!” One of the guards angrily took out a sound transmission stone and relayed a message.
“Fine, we’ll wait for your leader to arrive,” Stout shrugged again.
Aarav Lyons opened his mouth to say something but decided against it. He realized that polite communication was futile and considered other methods.
Their reinforcements arrived quickly. Within minutes, an elder descended from the stone steps above.
Judging by his aura, he was at the Mid Stage of Perceiving Dao Realm.
“Who dares cause trouble at Heavenly Secrets Pavilion? Are you tired of living…” The elder began angrily as he approached.
Before he could finish, a burst of blood mist erupted, leaving nothing behind.
Seeing this, the guards’ mouths dropped open in shock. A Mid Stage of Perceiving Dao Realm expert was gone just like that?!
“Damn, Boss, that was ruthless! At least let him finish speaking before killing him!” Stout instinctively glanced at Billy, assuming it was his doing.
Ivy slapped the back of Stout’s head.
“Ivy, why did you hit me…” Stout turned to Ivy but stopped mid-sentence.
In the distance, a large group of people flew over, numbering at least four to five hundred. Judging by the aura of their leader, he was undoubtedly a Heaven Dao Realm expert!
Clearly, the elder from Heavenly Secrets Pavilion had been killed by them.
“What the hell is going on?” Stout exclaimed.
“Who knows!” White Tiger shrugged.
“Old Alfie, you have three breaths to come out and see me, or I’ll slaughter everyone in Heavenly Secrets Pavilion!” The elder’s voice echoed through the air.
As he spoke, an overwhelming aura emanated from him, enveloping the entire area in a suffocating pressure.
As his words fell, dozens of powerful auras surged from the manor above the stone steps. Soon, nearly a hundred men and women flew out, each with considerable strength.
Leading them was Isaac Kaur, the current master of Heavenly Secrets Pavilion!
“Caleb Murphy, it’s you again. Do you really think Heavenly Secrets Pavilion fears you?” Isaac Kaur shouted angrily at him.
“You are not qualified to speak to me. Bring out Old Alfie!” Caleb Murphy responded coldly.
“I told you, my father is not here…” Isaac Kaur started again.
“Three breaths are up!” Caleb Murphy interrupted him and waved his hand, “Attack! Kill everyone in Heavenly Secrets Pavilion!”
As his command fell, hundreds of his followers charged at Heavenly Secrets Pavilion’s people.
“Caleb Murphy, stop this madness!” Isaac Kaur shouted back and waved his hand as well, “Attack!”
The next moment, both sides clashed fiercely.
As the battle commenced, another five to six hundred people flew out from the manor to join the fight. The sky filled with figures and energy waves in a terrifying display.
“This…” Judge looked at the sky and then turned to Billy, “Boss, should we intervene?”
“Why intervene? Let’s enjoy the show first!” Stout replied.
“Let’s observe for now,” Billy said as he watched the sky. The battle had just begun and it was too early to determine the outcome, so he didn’t plan to act immediately.
He then walked over to the guards who had been defeated earlier.
“Who are they?” he asked one of them.
“I… I don’t know…” The man shook his head.
“Do you really not know or are you just unwilling to say?” White Tiger asked coldly, exuding a chilling aura.
“They are from Northern Domain King!” another man responded.
“Northern Domain King?” Everyone was taken aback. Such a coincidence?
“Yes,” the man nodded.
“Why are they attacking Heavenly Secrets Pavilion?” White Tiger asked again.
“I heard that Northern Domain King wants Old Alfie to submit to him, but Old Alfie refused,” the man replied.
“Is it that simple?” White Tiger pressed on.
“I’m not sure about the details,” the man shook his head again.
“Is your old master really not here?” Azure Dragon asked.
“Old Alfie is in seclusion,” the man admitted without hesitation.
“What is his cultivation level?” Azure Dragon continued asking.
“We don’t know. Old Alfie hasn’t appeared publicly for a long time,” the man replied.
At that moment, a loud noise came from the sky. Isaac Kaur was thrown like a leaf and spat blood into the air. He was at second-rank Heaven Dao Realm while his opponent Caleb Murphy was at third-rank Heaven Dao Realm late stage. Naturally, he struggled to compete.
After a few exchanges, Isaac Kaur’s defeat became evident. It seemed he wouldn’t last much longer.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“As the master of Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, is this all you’ve got?” Caleb Murphy taunted coldly as he looked at Isaac Kaur. “I’ll give you one last chance. Bring out your father or I’ll put you to death!”
