Chapter 2876

Ash had just finished scolding when he noticed the master next to him coughing gently. It reminded him about the young sect master’s message, saying that he and a group of disciples were trapped in the formation at the other courtyard's entrance. His words seemed to imply that a man named Rockefeller could command the formation. Jeremy, the current head of the Returning Sword Sect, remained expressionless as he said calmly, "Ash, Yukon sect’s ban is breaking the critical moment. We can't afford to lose. A bunch of Wasteland natives happened to get a set of formations to create this commotion, so do you need to act personally? Let Protector Yaakov take care of it." "My son was killed, and I...," Ash said. "Where is Protector Yaakov?" Jeremy asked. Immediately, a man, about thirty, with long hair and frigid eyes, approached Jeremy. "Sect master!" Jeremy said, "Go to California and deal with the Returning Zeal Headquarters. Safely return the young sect master, capture that murderer named Rockefeller, and hand him over to the Grand Elder, Elder Sandoval, for disposal… Bring it back, then, fight using the majesty of my Returning Sword Sect. Anyone who dares to offend my Returning Sword Sect should be aware that they will be executed by nine clans…" Jeremy said those words as if they were unimportant, even speaking about the execution with a hint of enthusiasm. "Yes!" ... "Mom!" Alex finally saw his mother, Brittany, in a large hall on Mount Dragon-Tiger. Her face ghostly pale and skin as white as frost; she lay on a bed as white as snow. Several other beds had also been laid out beside it. However, what made Alex's heart tremble, was that those lying or sitting in those beds were people closest to him. Maya, the Mystic Maiden, Michelle, Zella, Waltz. Each woman was severely injured. "What exactly is going on?" "How did they all get so badly hurt? All of them are… Could it be that they had all been injured by Rakshasa Temple’s people?" Alex was taken aback and looked to the side. Zendaya, also present, was tending to Ynes' injuries. Among these people, Ynes was the one who suffered the worst. Zendaya would have died long ago if she hadn't used her own Chi. With the help of the Sacred Crown Tree of the Moon, it extended her lifespan and kept her breathing. Alex’s own mother, Brittany, on the other hand… It might be hard to notice but Alex instantly recognized it—the Soul Substitute Lotus Seed in her body was broken, reverting her to a vegetative state. That would be simple to deal with. His body’s Soul Substitute Lotus Seed was still alive and well. Ynes' meridians had been fractured, her energy core had been damaged, and her spiritual roots devastated. Such injuries left their victims practically hopeless. It was a very tricky situation for Alex. Even if Alex could save Ynes’ life, she would be completely paralyzed and would have to spend the rest of her life in bed. Based on her character, she would most likely rather die. The only normal person was Beatrice, who was relieved to see Alex’s return. She was naturally happy, but she could not smile because of the surrounding situation. "Brother, Ynes received a major blow on aunt’s behalf. That person is extremely powerful, and our people are truly defeated. Now, only Zendaya can temporarily delay her death. The Fairy Doctor said that there are no other ways left and that Ynes can last three days at most. She no longer has the will to live and has asked us to kill her several times. She claims death is better than living and that she no longer has ties with anyone," Beatrice whispered to Alex. "I got it!" Alex approached Ynes and took her from the exhausted Zendaya. " Zendaya, rest. I'm here." Zendaya's face was drenched in sweat. She was giving it her all. However, treating the symptoms certainly didn’t address the underlying issue. "I'm sorry, husband. I failed to protect everyone," Zendaya cried, tears streaming down her fragrant cheeks. The once natural goddess had actually apologized and shed tears for this, revealing how guilty she actually felt. She had taken on a massive burden and was now carrying it on her back.
