Chapter 415: Chapter 415
"The Hale family members look glamorous outside entirely because of the Saint Lord alone, if the Saint Lord leaves, is the Hale family just going to turn into a pile of loose sand?"
"If that happens, how will outsiders view the Hale family? How will those factions the Hale family has offended view us?"
"Well said!" Cedric gave a loud shout, deeply appreciating Julian’s words, he stepped forward, as the First Elder, when the Saint Lord was absent, his word was absolute.
"Julian is absolutely right, a family’s prosperity is not determined by looking at just one person."
"It requires everyone to be strong, when outsiders mention the Hale family, they should not just think of the Saint Lord first."
"It should be that everyone talks about how powerful the people of the Hale family are."
Accompanied by Cedric’s words, the crowd regained their confidence, during this period, they had treated Saint Lord Alex as a support, relying on him far too much.
They had never truly considered what the Hale family would do after the Saint Lord left, could it be that they needed another existence like the Saint Lord to appear and shelter them once again? That should not be the case, nor was it the ideal of the Hale family.
"The Great Elder spoke well! We should focus on making ourselves stronger," a branch family head chimed in, the others felt the same, their resolve rekindled.
From the shadows, Alex watched this scene, feeling extremely gratified, he had long anticipated this, having a great tree to enjoy the shade under was a good thing, but they had not thought about what would happen once the tree fell, cultivation does not rely on one’s family, it relies on oneself.
If the Hale family wanted to be truly powerful, they could not rely on Alex alone.
"Once the family’s affairs are sorted out, it will be time for Cloud Deer Island in a dozen days," Alex murmured to himself.
Meanwhile, among the major hidden factions, the Half Saint powerhouses were all carefully analyzing Alex’s strength.
Just what exactly was Alex’s true strength? It had only been a year since he broke through to Half Saint, it was absolutely impossible for his realm to have reached the peak.
That was what the Half Saints guessed, after all, during the meeting in Central Province City, although Alex’s true strength was not fully revealed, his faintly leaked aura only indicated the lower stage of the Half Saint Realm.
The fact that he dared to speak to Lewis in such a manner was likely just due to youthful arrogance, nothing more.
"This Hale family Saint Lord is truly quite a character, with these deeds of his, even if he is not the Chosen One, he might as well be one." A Half Saint Sect Master who had investigated Alex’s background said with clear admiration.
"He is a true monstrous genius."
"If given another few hundred years, the Hale family led by this person would inevitably become a top tier faction."
"It is just a pity..."
The admiration in this Half Saint Sect Master’s eyes vanished, replaced by cold killing intent. "It is a pity that he is destined to die."
A family harboring massive destiny luck severely impacted their plans, this time, Alex was undoubtedly going to die, this was a fatal trap that absolutely no one could break.
High up in the clouds, within that sect, the middle aged man holding the horsetail whisk sat quietly on a cliff edge, by his side, an elder recounted all the investigated findings to him.
"Alex, the Hale family Saint Lord, lower stage Half-Saint Realm, age..." Astonishment continuously flashed through the middle-aged man’s eyes, he felt truly surprised by Alex’s deeds.
"No wonder he dared to oppose Lewis, such a figure truly deserves to be called a formidable overlord." The middle-aged man praised. "The title of a Villain, how interesting."
Scenes like this were occurring across all the major hidden factions, Alex was simply too eye-catching, especially after the conference in Central Province City, many Half-Saints suspected that his realm was definitely not just at the lower stage of the Half-Saint Realm.
Otherwise, how could Virgil refrain from making a move against the Hale family? It did not make sense, it could not be logically explained.
Within the Blue Water Sect.
Virgil sat upright in the center of the lake, the weather was clear, yet at the borders of the Blue Water Sect, torrential rain still poured down, making it impossible for outside cultivators to peer inside.
"In just a few more days, it will be the day Cloud Deer Island opens."
"Presumably, all the major factions are currently taking action against Alex, looking for a way to eliminate him."
"Furthermore, his family will inevitably be targeted, after all, a family’s destiny luck only dissipates when all of its members perish."
"However, the instructions Elder Cassius gave are already very clear."
Virgil’s gaze flickered, just the day before, he had ordered all the elders and disciples within the sect to emerge and hunt down the disciples of the Hale family, this time, he absolutely had to kill Alex.
As time passed, a piece of news trickled down into the lower realm.
The disciples and elders of the major hidden factions had suddenly mobilized in full force, scattering across various parts of the lower realm for unknown reasons, some speculated that the hidden factions were about to launch a purge against the current-world factions, guesses were just guesses, however, as these hidden factions had not actually attacked any sect yet.
No one knew what their true objective was.
The entire lower realm felt as if it were shrouded in a layer of dark clouds, the surface-level tranquility was merely a signal that a violent storm was about to arrive.
Within the Hale family, Alex opened his eyes and slowly looked up toward a certain patch of heaven and earth. "In three days, Cloud Deer Island will open, it is time to set off."
There were only three days left until Cloud Deer Island opened.
With all the major hidden factions making such sudden moves, one could not help but wonder what exactly it was all for.
Outside Cloud Deer Island, figures descended upon this place, standing on the cliffs or hovering in the void.
This place had already gathered all the Half-Saints of the entire lower realm.
Alex was among them, he stood in a corner, not drawing attention to himself, however, even before Cloud Deer Island opened, several gazes shot toward him, harboring clear ill intentions.
"Lost your patience already?" Alex looked at those few people and could not help but chuckle.
Right at this moment, the white-robed elder finally arrived, fashionably late.
Seeing the white-robed elder arrive, the crowd stepped forward to bow in greeting, but upon seeing the three masked individuals beside him, their hearts were filled with endless doubts.
"Elder Cassius, this is..." a Half-Saint asked.
"These three are disciples of my Heavenly Dao Alliance, specially brought here to gain experience," the white-robed elder explained.
"Please rest assured, everyone, plundering destiny luck requires the setup of a grand formation, and only while within the grand formation can we plunder the destiny luck."
Hearing this, the crowd finally felt at ease, they were naturally afraid that the other party would snatch all the destiny luck, but with Elder Cassius present, it was hard to voice those concerns, now that they had his guarantee, the crowd did not ask further questions.
"Cloud Deer Island is about to open, everyone, please wait for now," the white-robed elder said slowly, before sitting cross-legged in the void.
Seeing this, the others also closed their eyes and stopped speaking.
Three days passed very quickly, for Half-Saints, it went by in the blink of an eye.
On this day, heaven and earth underwent a massive change, countless bolts of lightning roared within the clouds, and this shocking scene occurred across the entire lower realm.
The originally gloomy sky turned a sickly yellow, as if a great terror was descending, countless cultivators felt afraid, not knowing what was happening.
Meanwhile, in front of Cloud Deer Island, tens of thousands of rays of radiant light were falling upon it, clouds of glowing mist rolled over, covering the sky and the earth, it was an extremely spectacular sight.
At the same time, this exact scene was happening everywhere across the lower realm.
"It is about to open." The white-robed elder opened his eyes, looking at the anomaly before him, his heart stirring.
"It has opened!" The Half-Saints present were also somewhat excited.
The thick mist shrouding Cloud Deer Island slowly dispersed, completely revealing the island’s appearance, even from a hundred miles away, the vision of the gathered Half-Saints could clearly see it.
On Cloud Deer Island, birds sang and flowers gave off their fragrance, countless precious medicinal herbs were planted on it, and there were boulders suspended in the void, with flying swords circling among them.
