Chapter 3732
Darryl was shocked when he heard that and quickly asked, "what happened?"
Ileana sighed lightly and said, "Half a month ago, the Godly Region sent an envoy named Rogart to set up the Heavenly Alliance in the Nine Mainland to reorganize the world of cultivators. Many of the sects had joined him.
"Rogart was very skilled at scheming, and just two days ago, he led a charge against the Legendary Island of Dragons. After a fierce battle, the Green Dragon clan lost, and they had to surrender to him.
"I was actually discussing with my subordinates how to handle that matter before you arrived."
Darryl's expression changed when he heard that. 'So that's why the island was so desolate. But, how did a mere envoy win over the dragons? Something is really off about that.'
Darryl smiled at Ileana and said, "Thank you for telling me all this. I have to go now. Let's catch up some other time."
His face was impassive when he said that, which belied the anxiety he was feeling in his heart. He never thought that so many changes had happened in the Nine Mainland in the three years he was gone.
Meanwhile, at the Carter family's mansion, Dax, Chester, Yvette, and the others were sitting in the living room with a solemn expression on their faces, making the atmosphere there indescribably suffocating.
They had received news about what had happened in the Legendary Island of Dragons the previous day. No one could believe that the powerful dragons had lost. Then, they had received the invitation to attend the celebration feast held by the Heavenly Alliance. Chester knew things were not as simple as that, so he called for a meeting.
"Uncle Chester, should we go to the celebration feast?" Ambrose asked. Even though he was the Elysium Gate's Sect Master, he would still defer to Chester when it came to matters of huge importance.
"I think it is a trap. We'll be surrounded by danger if we attend. Rogart is treacherous and would not let US go that easily," Yvette said.
Chester nodded in agreement and said, "You're right. The Heavenly Alliance had already subdued the Green Dragon clan, and we're probably next."
"What's there to be scared of? If it's up to me, I say we go! After all, we're one of the three strongest sects in the entire Nine Mainland. We'll be a laughing stock if we don't go! A worst-case scenario? We'll just fight them to the death," Dax shouted aggressively.
Chester did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Calm down, Dax. Do you think we have a winning chance when they already won against the Green Dragon clan? This concerns the life and death of the three big sects; we shouldn't act rashly."
Yvette, Yvonne, and the other women in the family nodded in agreement.
"Yes, we should not act impulsively."
