Hiss!
The prison cell fell silent! Everyone there frowned as they looked at Fang Mao!
'He... He is too bold. Master had personally invited him, but he had rejected his offer. He even accused Master of being a menace!'
'He must have been too sick of living!'
Zhang Jue's face darkened. He felt insulted to be humiliated before so many of his disciples.
Everyone in the prison cell was in a somber atmosphere. Besides Fang Mao, no one could breathe at ease.
"Well, alright then!"
Finally, Zhang Jue could not hold it in any longer. He sneered at the other man. "I'll fulfill your death wish!" he said as he fired a palm attack at lightning speed.
Fang Mao's internal energy had been drained; he was so weak that he could not avoid the palm attack at all. The palm attack landed on his heart vein. He grunted as he was startled and sent flying before his body smashed on the iron bars of the prison cell. He was no longer breathing when his body landed on the ground.
"It was his disciple who ran away just now, right? Send someone to chase after her immediately, and be sure to bring her back here." Zhang Jue's expression was icy when he gave the order to his followers around him.
"Yes!" The followers quickly responded and then sent people to chase after Sara.
Zhang Jue thought of something, and he looked at Fang Mao's body quietly. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile. "Even though you would rather die than to work for me, you've inspired me."
Then, he said to the disciples beside him, "Send my order for everyone to get ready for tomorrow morning; I will leave for the Holy Saint Sect. Empress Chang Er has been cultivating in seclusion for so many years. It's time for her to come out and face the world."
Zhang Jue cracked a menacing smile when he finished his last sentence.
…
In the Queen's Hall, at the south of the Rock City where the Raksasa Tribe resided.
The Raksasa Tribe had built the Queen's Hall for Natalie. It was where she would handle most political affairs and meet her followers and distinguished guests. Although it was not as grand as the palaces in the Nine Mainland, it was magnificently designed and built.
Since the completion of the main hall, it had been a very solemn and desolate area, but on that particular day, its atmosphere was exceptionally lively and joyous!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Jack quickly got up and thanked Natalie. He was beaming.
The people around Jack stood up and congratulated him. Jack accepted their congratulatory messages happily.
"One more thing!"
Natalie smiled, and her eyes fell on the three Zaine siblings. "You three siblings are the Raksasa Tribe's heroes. The title Oracle will be bestowed upon Clarice, who has retrieved the ancestral inheritance. You shall enjoy the tribe's respect, and I hope you can continue to contribute to the wellbeing of our tribe."
Clarice was startled. She was flattered to receive such high praise. "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
However, the two Zaine siblings next to Clarice wore a calm expression on their faces.
"Your Majesty!"
Jack stood up and said, "Three years ago, the Nine Mainland was united as one, and their strength was way too powerful for us to conquer them. We were forced to make peace with them, but now, Clarice has received the ancestral inheritance, and her strength is unfathomable. This is a great opportunity and a good sign for us."
"I think we can come up with a good plan now to conquer the Nine Mainland."
