Chapter 235 The Demise of Mahayan Pavilion
“Ah!” At this moment, waves upon waves of blood–curdling screams could be heard outside. One could grasp the severity of the situation just after listening to them.
“They have too many people on their side, Lord Jenning. We can’t hold them back anymore!” A member of Mahayan Pavilion rushed in. He was bloody from head to toe. After he spoke, he had a full–b*dy shudder and collapsed on the floor, the color drained from his face.
Upon seeing this, Wylie’s expression grew increasingly grim.
“Lord Jennings, we should retreat now! If we don’t, things will be beyond saving!” Homer said gravely.
“Where else can we go in this situation?” Wylie grimaced.
“We can head to Naporia and seek help from the previous lord! He’ll surely help us!” Homer said loudly.
“Naporia?” Wylie was stunned for a bit.
“Don’t even think of going anywhere!” With a loud shout, Melvin, together with the heads of the Four Noble Lineages, surged in.
“Wylie Jennings! You’re stuck now, so surrender!” Howard grinned gleefully at Wylie.
“Lord Jennings, you should retreat at once! I’ll be behind you!” Homer yelled as soon as he saw Howard and the others barge in.
“Mr. Flynn!” Wylie screamed.
“Lord Jennings, don’t just stand there! Go now, or it’ll be too late! At such an old age, my death is insignificant. As long as you’re alive, Mahayan Pavilion will rise again eventually!” Homer said anxiously.
He was determined, even when he knew his death was inevitable.
Wylie’s eyes gradually got watery. Homer had been by his side for more than a decade and had always been very loyal. He did not expect Homer to be willing to part with his life just to
protect him.
“All of you, guard the lord and protect him as he retreats!” Homer said to the remaining men from Mahayan Pavilion.
“Yes, Mr. Flynn!” After receiving his command, about a hundred elites protected Wylie as he
fled.
“Mr. Flynn, you must stay alive!” Wylie looked at Homer sadly, reluctant to leave him.

Homer looked resolute. He chose to stay, so he had no plans of leaving here alive!
“Lord Jennings, go! You can’t afford to delay this any longer!” With this final remark, Homer charged toward Howard and the others.
“Retreat!” With gritted teeth, Wylie retreated only with a dozen elites, leaving the rest with Homer.
“Quick, stop them! Make sure that Wylie doesn’t escape!” Howard shouted when he noticed that Wylie was about to flee.
Several hundred men charged toward Wylie.
“Stop these people and create an opening for our lord!” The remaining men from Mahayan Pavilion rushed there, already prepared to die as a result.
“You want to lay a hand on our lord? Kill me before that!” Homer dashed over with a
murderous expression on his face.
He moved sharply and efficiently as he lunged forward. He was already at the highest level of tier three and was a step away from becoming an eternal grandmaster!
“Know your place!” Melvin studied Homer’s abilities as well.
With that, he suddenly seemed to become stronger!
“What? An eternal grandmaster!” Homer exclaimed in shock when he felt the burst of strength.
He was surprised. Melvin was, surprisingly, an eternal grandmaster!
He was in no place to choose otherwise, though. He could only grit his teeth and charge!
“Ah!” Homer summoned all the strength in his b*dy and charged toward Howard.
“Don’t just stand there, people! Go after Wylie now! He must not leave Easton alive!” Melvin said to the other heads.
“Understood!” Without hesitation, they led their men in pursuit of Wylie.
A loud clash could be heard as Homer and Melvin charged toward each other and fought.
With just one move, Homer’s brows tightly furrowed, and he spewed out a glob of blood. He was already fighting without holding back, but he was only at the highest level of tier three, and the difference in power between that and an eternal grandmaster was simply too huge.
But Homer had no plans of retreating. He wiped the blood on the corner of his lips and charged again.
Melvin’s face was filled with murderous intent. He knew that Homer was dragging it out for

“You overestimate yourself!” The veins on Melvin’s arms popped as he landed punch after punch.
A few minutes later, Homer was killed.
At this moment, the heads of the Four Noble Families rushed back.
“Why are you back so soon? Where’s Wylie?” Melvin asked in surprise.
“Mr. Jones, Wylie covered up his skills. We didn’t expect him to be an eternal grandmaster! We’ve given our all, but we couldn’t beat him, and he escaped!” The four men looked grim.
They were all at tier three. There was a huge disparity between them and an eternal. grandmaster.
Upon hearing that, Melvin’s expression sank.
Wylie was very powerful. If he were to escape Easton, he would come back eventually!
Melvin looked at Homer’s corpse on the ground. If this old man had not put his life on the line to stop him, Melvin would surely be able to catch Wylie.
“Mr. Jones, now that Wylie Jennings has escaped, what’s our next move?” Howard asked,
“Mahayan Pavilion has already been destroyed. Wylie won’t be able to get up to anything when he’s alone. What we must do now is to exterminate what’s left of Mahayan Pavilion as soon as possible!” Melvin said with a grin.
“Got it!” The four heads started on that together with their men.
Melvin looked at Wylie’s throne, slowly made his way to it, and sat down.
“From now on, Easton will belong to Celestial Sanctum!” Melvin guffawed loudly.
Mahayan Pavilion had risen very quickly back then, and Celestial Sanctum had been suppressed in turn. Now, they had finally come back!
Right when Melvin was immersed in his glee, a silhouette appeared before him.
“You look gleeful. What, you want to lord over Easton?”
Upon hearing this ice–cold voice, Melvin shuddered. He then stood up.
“Ms. Frost!” Melvin greeted Sylvia respectfully.
“Don’t forget who helped you extinguish Mahayan Pavilion. Don’t forget yourself, either. If Celestial Sanctum dares commit evil deeds, just like Mahayan Pavilion had done before, you’ll be the next one to suffer from this fate,” Sylvia said expressionlessly.
“Yes, Ms. Frost!” Melvin nodded. He dared not say more.

He knew very well what Sylvia was capable of. He also knew that Caspian and Sylvia were more than ordinary.
The external forces that had invaded Easton were snuffed by Caspian’s subordinates.
Caspian was much stronger compared to before, now. Melvin would not even dare to fathom how powerful he actually was.
“Don’t just stand there. Caspian wants you to reestablish order in Easton within the shortest time possible!” Sylvia turned and left.
“Understood. I’ll start on it right away: By sunrise tomorrow, there will be a new Easton!”
Melvin answered.
He could only breathe in relief after Sylvia had left. If he forgot himself and pissed Caspian off, Celestial Sanctum would not be any better off compared to Mahayan Pavilion.
