My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2226

There was a highly significant cultural site on Apexel Mountain in the Eastern Territory.

At the same time, this place was also the headquarters of the elite sect, the Apexel Path.

The practitioners of this sect focused solely on their cultivation and did not engage with the outside world like other sects.

This led to the sect having few disciples. However, the few who were members of this sect were exceptionally strong.

Even the weakest among them, the outer disciples, had nearly reached the level of the Profound Oriental Realm.

However, the sect's strength was also its weakness—its isolation. The mountain's natural defenses made it nearly impossible for most martial artists, even those approaching the Divine Sojourn Realm, to detect their presence.

As a result, the sect had dwindled in numbers over time.

Before Benedict stood a young man who controlled lightning, one of the new generations of Apexel Mountain. Among his cohort, there were only a handful of others.

Their descent from the mountain was at the behest of their current sect leader.

Zaafea's earpiece had been directly linked to the leader's ears. Even Zaafea was not entirely sure how many people were left at Apexel Mountain.

At that moment, two more practitioners flew in—a man and a woman. They joined Thunder Boy.

"What do you think, Octavian?" the woman asked.

Thunder Boy, known as Octavian, grinned slyly.
