Drax was losing his mind!
Those were two Permanent-Tier powerhouses!
For the longest time on the Myriad Tribulation Star, no Permanent-Tier fighters had fallen in combat. Aside from the Drunkard executing Mofu down in the underground palace, fatalities at that level were virtually unheard of.
And Mofu hadn’t even belonged to any of the Eight Great Clans.
Now, two Permanent-Tier masters from the Eight Great Clans had perished in a single stroke.
Drax was beyond furious!
Just like the Ancient Clan, Soul Hall only possessed four Permanent-Tier powerhouses in total. Liam had directly wiped out two of them on Promise Island, severely crippling Soul Hall's elite combat strength. Without a doubt, their Permanent-Tier count had plummeted to just two, leaving them at the very bottom of the Eight Great Clans!
This struck right at the foundations of Soul Hall, driving Drax to the brink of insanity.
Two Permanent-Tier experts!
He bellowed in rage, "Someone come! Issue the Soul Master's Decree—notify all subordinate factions to mobilize immediately and attack Phoenix City!"
"Tell the patriarch of the Vampire Clan to come to Soul Hall at once!"
"Notify the rest of the Eight Great Clans to recall all forces currently engaged with Pluto Palace!"
"..."
Order after rapid order streamed down from his command.
Over at the Solhein Empire, within the Imperial Clan!
Inside a massive, opulent palace, an elderly figure sat quietly upon the throne—none other than the reigning Emperor of the Solhein Empire, Ron Wilson!
Below him, numerous members of the imperial family had gathered, including Zara Wilson, Renault, and others.
Ron stared at the intelligence report in his hands, his fingers trembling slightly.
"Your Majesty, what on earth has happened?" Zara asked with a hint of anxiety. For some reason, a chilling premonition gnawed at his gut.
Ron let out a slow, heavy breath. "Word has just come in—Liam, the host of the Dragon Bone, has broken through to the Permanent-Tier and slaughtered two Permanent-Tier elders of Soul Hall!"
"What?!" Down below, a cold shiver raced down Zara's spine.
Liam had reached the Permanent-Tier.
And just how long had it been?
He had gone to Phoenix City to negotiate, demanding a share of their revenues, and that whole trip had only taken a few days back and forth. Yet now... Liam had broken through to the Permanent-Tier?
Just how young was he?!
Liam had single-handedly smashed the existing record for the youngest Permanent-Tier breakthrough on the Myriad Tribulation Star by over twenty years!
More importantly, remembering how he had gone out of his way to lecture Liam for half a day, Zara realized that now that Liam was a Permanent-Tier master, the entire Imperial Clan no longer possessed a single person capable of suppressing him.
"What... what do we do?" Zara panicked slightly. "He's reached the Permanent-Tier, and now a massive flood of lower-class citizens is pouring into Phoenix City. Sooner or later, Phoenix City is going to burst at the seams, and when that happens, he's definitely going to expand outward."
Indeed, if Liam chose to expand his territory, the Solhein Empire would be the very first target in his crosshairs.
"Report!"
At that exact moment, a messenger burst hurriedly into the hall, bringing yet another piece of urgent news.
Ron hastily snapped open the dispatch and scanned it. His expression flickered between shades of shock and uncertainty. After a long moment, he raised his head and swept his gaze across the gathered nobles. "Recall every single Flame Decay-level master immediately."
"What's happened?" Renault demanded.
"The vampires have issued a decree: mobilize all Flame Decay elites and lay siege to Phoenix City!"
Meanwhile, within the Ancient Clan, Ansel's expression flickered with deep shock!
He hardly knew how to describe the tumultuous emotions churning inside him.
