With the appearance of the Umbrella of Destiny, the entire environment started changing. The skies
began thundering, slicing through the space several times.
âResha, bring Seventh Sis with you and go!â
Cordelia yelled at the top of her voice, grabbing her natal magical treasure. It was a piece of long green
silk. With the slight movement of her hand, it covered the skies and blocked off Eustaceâs umbrella.
The next second, a large energy collision occurred before everyone.
The umbrella spun gently as it shredded the silk into pieces. The malicious energy remained, wrapping
itself around Cordelia tightly.
âFifth Sis!â
âRun! Just run!â
Bish!
Cordelia yelled out to Resha and Lila, urging them to leave immediately.
As Eustace spun the umbrella again, the beams of energy around Cordeliaâs body quickly tightened up.
And with that, the womanâs body was diced into pieces.
âAh!â
âEustace Underwood, you ungrateful, cruel b*stard!â
âYou will face your karma one day!â
Eustace didnât care one bit. âI am the seed, the savior of this universe. Millions of people are waiting for
me to save them. So what if I kill a few?â
âThen both of you will have to die too!â Eustace raised the umbrella readied to strike the second time.
Just then, a tall beam of light appeared in the south, as waves of Dao-filled melodies filled the entire
area. Eustace halted in his tracks, his face turning pale. âNo⦠The Kalonex Divine Tree!â
Bjorne started panicking. Not caring any less about Resha and Lila, he turned into a ray of light and
rushed towards the skies.
Bjorne
He
âFifth Sis!â
Resha and Lila came back to the scene and knelt before Cordeliaâs corpse. It wasnât even a corpse at
this point, it was a pile of flesh. The other sisters came over as well.
Cordelia was one of them. They have been together for three thousand years and were like family. Yet,
their sister was murdered by their young lord.
Lila teared up. âMy sisters, that man has always looked down on us. Bjorne is a self-centered prick. All
he cares about is himself. Everyone is weak to him as if we all owe him something! Do you really think
such a man can save the universe?â
Bjorne
He
âI donât know what Big Sis thought when she made that decision. But now, I want to follow her. Iâd
rather serve an outsider than support a cold-hearted tyrant!â
However, their second sister huffed coldly. âThe young lord has his reasons. Heâs the son of destiny,
the one who the ancient Supremes have chosen! Even if heâs wrong, destiny will always be on the
young lordâs side!â
âLila Kelson, I wonât stop you if you want to leave. But donât you dare stir up a ruckus, or I will kill you
too.â Lila shot her a glance and left.
Resha picked up Cordeliaâs body and bowed. âTake care, my sisters.â
âWait. I⦠I want to go with you too.â
Another woman stood out from the group and walked to Reshaâs side.
âAre you going to betray the Young Lord as well, Alika?â The second sister, Nadia Shelvey, scolded
harshly.
âI just⦠I donât want to sign the contract,â Alika answered softly.
âAnd neither do I,â another said as she took a step forward.
Nadia was furious. âFine then. Who else doesnât want to sign the contract? Step up. But Iâm telling you
right here, right now. If you do this, you will become traitors to the Young Lord. Bjorne will not let you off
this easily!â
Bjorne
He
âBesides, you will be destroying all your efforts from the past three thousand years. You will never be
able to follow the Young Lord anymore.â
In the end, no one else dared to step out.
Nadia turned to Resha and the others. âLeave now! But weâre no longer sisters from now on. If we ever
meet again, weâd be facing each other as enemies. Fate will then decide who lives.â
âTake care!â
At the time, Eustaceâs angry shouting came from the south of the mountain valley, where the Kalonex
Divine Tree was. âYouâre looking for a death wish, you brat!â
Nadiaâs eyes turned sharp. âLetâs go. We have to help the Young Lord.â
The group immediately rushed over.
