The reason Jaxon was so wary of Gilmore was simple. He had suffered defeats at Gilmore’s hands a few times before and the memory cast a long shadow over him.
With caution, he said to his father, “Father, didn’t we send two uncles, our senior cultivators, to deal with Gilmore, Amy and Yacouba at the Ice Mountains?”
Levi, the imperial preceptor, nodded. “Yes, what about it?”
“Wouldn’t it be wise to contact them first to see if Gilmore and his companions have been taken care of by our uncles,” Jaxon said.
“That way, we wouldn’t have any concerns hanging over us.”
Hearing this, Levi chuckled, “My son, I see what worries you.
“If things are as I expect, your uncles should have already wiped them out completely. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“Besides, even if they fail to kill Gilmore, by the time Gilmore, Amy and their companions return to Fensville, I will have already claimed the throne of the Golden Tower Empire.
“If they come back to Fensville, they’re walking into their graves
Despite his confident words, Levi still pulled out a jade slip from his storage ring.
The imperial preceptor channeled his core energy into the transsion jade slip.
In an instant, the surface of the jade slip emitted a soft light.
Then Levi spoke to the jade slip, Jepson and Carey have you seen Gilmore and his group arrive at the Ice Mountains?”
“Senior apprentice Levi, we lay in wait for them and launched an ambush. Unexpectedly, we eliminated them all very quickly.”
Joy spread across Levi’s face as he heard this. “Well done. You may return to Fensville now,” he spoke into the jade slip.
“As you command, senior apprentice Levi.”
Levi withdrew his core energy, and the glow from the jade slip faded.
The Imperial Preceptor then put the jade slip back into the storage ring.
Turning to Jaxon, he said, “You heard them, didn’t you? Gilmore has been taken care of by your uncles.
“Are you
you at case now?”
Jaxon nodded at his father.
He hadn’t expected the two uncles to be capable of taking down Gilmore.
It seemed to him that Gilmore could only strut around when facing someone
weaker
In the face of his uncles, two exalted–level cultivators, Gilmore had met his end.
This was nothing but a pillow of thistles.
Yet for Jaxon, hearing of Gilmore’s demise was like a breath of fresh air, releasing the pent–up resentment he harbored.
BB.
Meanwhile, far above the Ice, Mountains, within a protective shield of anima.
Gilmore withdrew his own anima, and the light from the transsion jade slip in his hand faded away.
Then Gilmore looked at Jepson and Carey, who were showing him utmost respect, and said, “Well done.”
With that, Gilmore stored the transsion jade slip into his storage ring.
That’s right, the Imperial Preceptor had just sent a voice message to Carey and Jepson by the jade slip.
Gilmore held the jade slip in his hand and asked Jepson and the others to reply to the Imperial Preceptor.
When the Imperial Preceptor heard that Gilmore was dead, Gilmore asked Jepson and Carey to tell him about it.
The reason why Gilmore asked Jepson and the others to reply to Imperial Preceptor and the others in this way.
His real purpose was to deceive the Imperial Preceptor
Now, as Gilmore and his group made their way back to Fensville, they planned to catch their enemies off guard
With Levi duped, Gilmore and his companions could ease their minds.
They continued their journey back to Fensville, leisurely enjoying the scenery and unfazed by the events.
As night fell.
The imperial palace burst into a chorus of eunuchs and maids exclaiming with joy, “Look, the snow has stopped!”
“The blizzard has ceased!”
“This must be because the princess Amy went to the Ice Mountains to pay homage to the Ice God, and so the deity has ceased the snowfall.
In the palace, every maid and eunuch was jumping for joy, some even dancing in celebration.
At the same time, outside the palace walls, the whole city Streets were deserted, every home battened down.

Fensville had been shut tight due to the severe snowstorm.
But soon, doors and windows creaked open.
Followed by this, Fensville resounded with the overjoyed voices of its citizens.
“It’s wonderful, the snow has stopped!”
“The blizzard has finally passed.
“We are saved”
At the imperial preceptor’s residence.
Levi sat in his study, sipping coffee and engrossed in a book, completely captivated by the literary world.
Outside the study, the manor buzzed with activity, and cheers could be heard even beyond its walls.
Cheers came from outside the mansion.
This commotion caused the imperial preceptor to set aside his book. He called out to the study door, “Mr. Walton, what on earth is happening outside?”

As his voice faded, a semiors strode in.
The seniors, in his fifties and with a solemn demeanor, said to the imperial preceptor, “Imperial Preceptor, the snow has stopped. The servants in the manor and the people out in the streets are all cheering and celebrating”
The imperial preceptor’s brow furrowed. The snowstorm has ceased?”
How could that be?
The seniors were Mr. Walton, who was highly trusted by Imperial Preceptor.
“Yes, Imperial Preceptor, the heavy snow has indeed ceased,” Mr. Walton said.
“Do you know why the snowstorm suddenly stopped the imperial preceptor asked Mr. Walton further.
This question stumped Mr. Walton.
Mr. Walton shook his head at the Imperial Preceptor and said, “Imperial Preceptor, I don’t know.
“However, I’ve heard the people claim it’s because the princess Amy went to the Ice Mountains to worship the Ice God”
The Imperial Preceptor nodded.
Hearing those words, he knew that no one knew why the snowstorm had stopped.
Similarly, the Imperial Preceptor did not know.
However, he also felt that the reason why the snow disaster stopped was definitely not because the princess Amy had paid her respects to the Ice God..
After all, he had learned from Jepson’s communication that the princess Amy and her party had met their demise at the hands of his junior apprentice Jepson’s fellow disciples.
He didn’t know why the snow disaster had stopped.
But it didn’t matter anymore.
le had already arranged with his loyal ministers and generals to launch a surprise attack on the palace at midnight.
He destroyed the Willock family in one fell swoop.
From then on, the dynasty would change.
As he pondered this, a fiery glint of wild ambition flickered in his eyes.
He was full of crazy ambition.
Inside the palace, the chief eunuch, Anson, could barely contain his joy as he approached Huston, who was engrossed in reviewing petitions “Your Majesty, an extraordinary event has occurred outside!”
Huston put down his brush and looked up, intrigued by the joy radiating from Anson’s face. “Anson, what exactly has happened?”
With a beaming smile, Anson replied, “Your Majesty, the snowstorm outside has stopped.”
“The snowstorm has stopped? Huston couldn’t hide his joy
either.
Anson nodded with a smile. “Everyone in the palace is overjoyed

“They all say the snowstorm has stopped because the princess Amy went to the Ice Mountains to worship the Ice God.
“The Ice God finally stopped being angry, so the snow disaster stopped.”
Though Huston felt that the end of the snowstorm might not solely be due to his daughter Amy’s prayer to the Ice God.
Whatever the reason, the end of the snowstorm meant the people of the Golden Tower Empire no longer had to suffer.
To Huston, this was truly a reason to rejoice.
“Finally, the heavens have shown mercy,” Huston murmured as he gazed out the study window at the bright, full moon, repeatedly expressing his approval.
Then, concern crept into his voice. “But I wonder if the princess Amy and her entourage are safe in the Ice Mountains?” With a reassuring smile, Anson said, “Your Majesty, rest assured, the princess Army and her company will surely be safe.”
Huston nodded. “Yes, Amy and her companions will return safely
With that, Huston’s gaze drifted back to the moon outside the window, lost in his thoughts.
Time slipped quietly toward midnight.
Under the light of the moon, the bustling city of Fensville had settled into silence.
All the people had fallen asleep.
Only the shadows of the patrolling guards moved about.
The rest had retired for the night, or were succumbing to sleep.
At that moment, groups of figures flew out from many places in Fensville. They quickly gathered into tens of thousands of figures.
There were cultivators in nightwear and soldiers in armor. They flew aggressively to the palace.
Soon, tens of thousands of soldiers had gathered in the air around the imperial palace.
“Enemies approach! Be on guardTM
“All royal guards, prepare for battle!
“Protect Mr. Franko!”
In an instant, the palace was a boiling cauldron of activity.
The royal guards had spotted the enemy.
In the imperial palace, the Imperial Guards in shining armor immediately began to arrange their troops and get busy. Soon, the atmosphere in the imperial palace was tense and murderous.
The thousands of cultivators and armored warriors outside were eyeing the palace with predatory focus.
Among this massive army, the imperial preceptor, along with numerous ministers and generals, could be seen leading the charge.
“Imperial Preceptor, we’ve surrounded the palace. Shall we attack now?” a warrior, exuding a fierce aura, asked the imperial preceptor.
BB.
The imperial preceplor’s t
glinted fiercely as he gazed at the palace. “Yes, let our forces swoop down immediately. Slay all
the royal guards and drag out that dog–emperor Huston to meet his end
The general’s voice boomed like thunder. “As you command, imperial preceptor!”
“Kill!!” This general roared like thunder.
As his cry rang out like a clap of thunder, the tens of thousands of masters in the sky descended on the palace like a swarm of locusts.
Killing intent filled the sky, shaking heaven and earth!
However, as these thousands of masters unleashed their terrifying power upon the palace, the air trembled violently.
Suddenly, the air shook violently.
In an instant, a ball of light as dazzling as the rising sun suddenly appeared from the imperial palace.
The entire imperial palace was enveloped by a ball of white light
The light that enveloped the palace was a huge inverted semicircle of light arc.
With the sudden appearance of this light arc, a stream of earth–shattering energy suddenly filled heaven and earth.
In the sky, the tens of thousands of masters who were attacking the palace were also approaching the huge light are that enveloped the palace.
With a loud bang, they were all sent flying by the terrifying power of the light arc.
The tens of thousands of masters in the air were shaken away by the horrible energy of the light arc, like leaves flying all over the sky, screaming.
The sight left the tens of thousands of royal guards within the palace, ready for battle, utterly dumbfounded.
Similarly, the imperial preceptor and all the ministers and generals were left agape, their eyes wide with disbelief!
