It was mainly due to the size of the sanctuary. Fortunately, Bjorne had enough flags-tens of thousands,
or they might actually run out.

The next day, Bjorneâs mirror images disappeared in the evening, as if they were snowflakes that met
the sun. Albert was standing on the top of a large mountain, forming seals on both his hands. Using Chi
to write Cuneiform in midair, he connected all of the formation flags in the sanctuary.

Suddenly, Nadia came back to Yukon, along with three of her sisters and around ten strong recently-
subdued clan members. As expected, the news about the building on the top of Yukon reached the
Stoermer Sect.
Eustace was outraged and distraught upon his exile from Yukon, especially since he was the seed. It
was a given that he wouldnât let Bjorne off this easily, so he had been closely monitoring everything
within Yukon. Eustace wanted to return when the building shone, but the goddess had ordered him not
to. Albert didnât dare to go against her, but he figured that sending others up

wasnât actually breaking the rules.
âBig Sis! Third Sis!â
Nadia and the others bumped into Lorelei and Nebula at the entrance, so she went up and greeted
them. The other three sisters did so as well.
âNadia, you guys have already left Yukon. Why have you come back?â Lorelai asked.
âBig Sis, are you two really determined to go down this path?â Nadia asked in return.
âI know the young lord was wrong to send you into the pond to look for the pill. Albert was wrong to
have not cared about your safety, but you will lose your lifeâs purpose once you abandon him and follow
some random brat! Due to your work and effort from the past three thousand years, the young lord has
decided to let it go once. Albert is willing to accept you into the sect again! Letâs just go back home,
shall we?â

Lorelei couldnâthelp herself and chuckle. âEustace would never say that. But either way, we will never
go back.â
Nebula, too, was astounded. âSecond Sis, just look at yourself. Youâre not here to convince us to go
back, are you?â
Nadia replied, âWeâve heard that the building on top of Mount Yukon started glowing. Whatâs up with
that?â
âHas the building started glowing? I donât know. I guess you mustâve heard some rumor.â
âWeâd like to go up there and take a lookâ
Lorelei smiled. âNo, that would be impossible.â
Nebula was straightforward. âHow dare you still come up here after Her Highness had forced you out?
Do you think Her Highness was talking nonsense?â
Nadia and the other women froze. âHow did you find out about that?â
Nebula grinned coldly. âHer Highness told us, of course. What? Do you really think weâre just a bunch
of foolish idiots? Since we used to be sworn sisters, Iâd like to give you some good advice, donât take
the wrong side. Her Highness is on ours, you know?â
Lorelei then told them to leave, but they refused. Just then, odd light beams shot out from the
sanctuary, one after another. As it reached the skies, it formed into a mysterious net, some of which
were filled with several Cuneiform symbols that moved about withinâ¦
That was Bjorneâs Thousand Flags Formation. Connecting each diagram into one, it constructed a
large, complete formation.

Nadia and the others had fallen into Bjorneâs tricks before, especially to those Cuneiform symbols.
They felt their scalps go numb.

âRetreat!â Nadia scowled and was first to back off, afraid that sheâd be trapped again.
On the other hand, Lorelei and Nebula stood still, watching the group of people backing away
thousands of meters.
Lorelei spoke up again. âNadia, go back and tell Eustace this. Donât mess around with the name of the
Stoermer Sect. Some people View that sect as mental support. Its name is not one to be tarnished.â
âIf he goes overboard, someone will stand up to take out the trash.â
