Wilbur scoffed coldly and said, "It's up to Ethan Osborn on how to deal with you. You should pray."
Then, he approached Zachary and asked, "Are you willing to follow me?"
"Sorry, I have to stay loyal to my mentor," replied Zachary while shaking his head.
Wilbur sighed and left.
Zachary had a nice personality which was much better than his mentor. He was also talented in cultivation. Wilbur felt sorry for the talented man. However, Zachary did not want to follow Wilbur, so he rejected Wilbur's offer.
Wilbur would not force him, so he let Zachary be.
Zachary carried his mentor's body toward the room after Wilbur left. He said, "Please leave, everyone. The Serene Garden will be closed for three years from now on. Please don't disturb us again."
Everyone quickly left after they heard that.
Joel went back to his house and plopped onto the sofa in despair. He looked lost.
His wife, Denise William, walked out in her sleeping gown. She frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"It's over. We're doomed," mumbled Joel.
Denise yelled angrily, "What are you doing? Have you avenged our son? Look at yourself. Hurry up and kill Ethan Osborn and his sister. Don't let anyone in their family live, or I'll kill you instead."
Joel stood abruptly and slapped her in the face. He yelled angrily, "What do you know? Do you know who's supporting Ethan Osborn?"
Denise was puzzled by the slap. She snapped out of it after a long while and tried to fight Joel while screaming, "I don't care who's supporting him! I want him dead! I need to avenge my son!"
Joel kicked Denise to the floor. He said in a hateful tone, "Loving mothers create spoiled brats. Our family wouldn't end up like this if you didn't spoil him! Get out immediately! I don't want to see your face here again!"
Denise finally realized there was more to the situation based on his maniacal behavior.
Confused, she asked, "What the hell happened?"
"I'm about to die. Viewspring Corp is doomed. Are you happy now?" yelled Joel.
