Alex had made twenty-five of these Enlightenment Pills, and there weren’t any residual herbs left within the stove.
He then took the pills but didn’t hand any to Lorelei. Instead, he said in a slow and calm tone, “Your cultivation levels are currently limited, so eating any more pills would only be wasting them. That’s why I’m not giving you any now. I’ll stock some up for you, though. I’ll hand you some once your heart problem is cured.”
Although Lorelei really wanted it, she agreed with Alex after some thought.
Twenty five pills weren’t a lot, so it didn’t take long for all of them to be distributed.
Just as Alex was about to swallow his pill, he suddenly had the feeling that Jade was coming. Alex then left the Cleansing Vase and headed to the gates of Mount Yukon alone. That was because he had changed the formation around the mountain. It would be exceedingly difficult for outsiders to attempt climbing this mountain. On the contrary, going down the mountain was very easy.
When he reached the gates, he realized that Jade wasn’t the only one who came. Gilbert was right behind her. Even Maya was there.
Alex froze from shock and asked Maya, “Sis, why are you here? Has your mother finally let you out?”
Maya shook her head. “Snow Dragon Valley is in trouble!”
On her way here, she had heard that Snow Dragon Valley had submitted themselves to the Stoermer sect. It was fortunate that the two parties didn’t cross swords. Lenneberg knew her strengths, so she didn’t put up a fight and accepted the Stoermer Sect’s proposal In front of an overwhelming, formidable force, the Snow Dragon Valley people didn’t even have the courage to resist or defend themselves.
Maya had received a call from Lenneberg not long ago, which meant she was still alive and well.
Alex nearly gasped out loud after hearing what Jade had to say. The Stoermer Sect had once again arisen, preying on sanctuaries that had an abundance of spiritual energy. The six biggest ancient sects had been defeated, forced to submit to them. They even had to give out their hard-earned sanctuaries and dungeons.
He led them into Yukon, then instantly rushed towards the center of the sanctuary. He was stunned after reaching the mountain valley.
The formation was completely fine. It looked just the same as when he first set it up. That meant that the formation didn’t break. Yet the people inside had disappeared.
“Holy sh*t. What the heck happened here?!”
“How did they get out?”
A voice came from behind Alex. “I let them go.”
