Apotheosis

She had fiddled with Zen's disciple card and because of that, Aura had even monitored Zen all his way when he went to the Hell Mountain alone last time.

Zen wore a disciple card all the time, and Aura was able to track wherever he was with her Picture Slab as long as he entered the territory of Cloud Sect.

Therefore, Aura's Picture Slab documented everything that occurred the other day. After watching the records of the Picture Slab, Aura discovered that Zen was threatened by Saint Viana. This discovery made her immediately get in touch with Caspar and rush towards the Commandment Mount together with him.

At this very moment, Zen asked her why the Picture Slab had recorded the events that transpired that day. At this, Aura didn't answer but gave a small chuckle. She was rather unwilling to tell Zen the truth.

"Today, they have said sorry to you and the matter has come to an end, but the saints have been infuriated. I am not fearful of them, but I am afraid that they would take revenge against you!" Aura said.

In turn, Zen nodded in understanding.

"I am very aware of this. Even if it isn't because of this thing, they will definitely refuse to let go of me.

But like them, I won't leave them off the hook either, especially Saint Viana and Saint Adrian!" he said.

He was certain that he had annoyed the saints today because they were forced to apologize to him in public. When Aura heard Zen's arrogant words, she only sighed heavily. Just now, she had forgotten who Zen was.

Deep inside her, she knew that Zen would not show that much hatred if he himself was hurt. However, if anyone dared to hurt any of his close relatives, it was beyond doubt that Zen would make them repay it at much higher costs.

However, Zen didn't act so ruthlessly this time... This reflected that Zen was humane.

"Well, let's save those for the future. Depending on your current strength, you are still unable to confront a master of the Illuminating Soul Realm, let alone these saints. To save your little sister, you have to further enhance your strength," Aura chided once again after a few moments.

Zen simply nodded in agreement at her words, and walked out of the Commandment Hall with Aura.

After taking the trial for slay

ve something in mind. What's wrong?" Zen asked curiously.

Nory was from the Imperial Capital. He usually acted a little mindlessly. This made it seem that nothing could ever displease him. Now he looked kind of sad, so Zen thought that something must have happened.

At Zen's curious questioning, Nory's eyes suddenly widened in mild surprise.

"Ahh, it's nothing! Zen, I feel happy to see you come back today. Come on! Cheer up!" Nory said. He lifted his cup in the air to toast with Zen.

The more Nory behaved that way to conceal his true feelings, the more Zen felt that something was off. Instead of lifting his cup up, Zen asked, "Just tell me frankly if you treat me as your close friend."

As soon as the words tumbled out from Zen's mouth, both Wurth and Sean slowly shifted their gazes to Nory. At this moment, they had also noticed that Nory behaved a little weirdly.

After a short pause, Nory suddenly smiled at them. "In fact, it is not a big deal. My family is going to hold a party next month. In fact, our Mo Family is also a noble clan, but lags relatively behind among noble clans..." he replied.

Upon hearing Nory's words, Wurth asked, "Nory, are you from the Mo family in the northern part of the city?"

Wurth's family ran businesses in almost all areas of the Imperial Capital, so he clearly knew about almost all of the families in that capital. Hence, he immediately guessed which Nory's family was when Nory told them that his family was also a noble clan.
