Chapter 321 Has the issue been resolved just like that?

Forgotten Guardian Temple.

Led by Jayce, Thanarok and his group entered the temple.

They had concealed their aura so well that even the "Quasi-Deity" elder of the Johnson family couldn't sense them.

Someone curiously asked Jayce why they had returned, but Jayce just glared at them and ordered the Johnson family members to seal and lock down the entire Forgotten Guardian Temple.

Thanarok and his companions looked at the ancient statues before them with reverence in their eyes.

The little girl, Luna Erebia, stood at the forefront, turned, and pointed at the drunken old man, commanding, "You stay and guard this temple, and don't let anyone near!"

The drunken old man, shifting from his previously arrogant demeanor, nodded obediently, "As you command!"

Luna's gaze swept over Jayce and the others, then added, "In consideration of their service to the Father God, no one shall harm their lives any further!"

"Understood!" Even Thanarok, who had the appearance of a student, respectfully nodded in agreement.

Only Erebus nodded expressionlessly.

"Erebus, come with me to New York. The rest of you, disperse around the world," Luna said, picking up two candles from beside the altar.

The candles lit themselves, and after placing them properly, Luna turned towards the ancient statues, spread her hands with her right finger resting on her left, and respectfully bowed three times...

Far away in New York, William, who had been quietly reading a book, suddenly looked up and glanced in the direction of Texas.

Things seemed to be getting interesting.

Once, he also tried to expel the dark forces triggered within his body. As a result, he unknowingly expelled something, which over eighty thousand years, seems to have formed a power in its own right...

"Souls escaped from the underworld?" William chuckled to himself, curious about what kind of entity he had expelled from his body. If it had its own independent consciousness, should he expel a couple more?

That seemed interesting, although it appeared that only one such being could be expelled from the body.

If he used a split consciousness, the consciousness would naturally be shared, but with the kind of entity expelled from the body, even William didn't know what it was.

Could that thing be planning to kill him and then take his place?

If that were really the case, it might not be so bad,then it's actually quite interesting.

William lowered his head again, pulling out his phone to continue watching the anime he hadn't finished from yesterday.

As for the sensed disturbance, he couldn't be bothered to intervene. He just wanted to see what kind of antics it would play out.

Alice was completely unaware of what she was about to face. At the moment, she had let down her guard, thinking the matter was simply resolved.

Two days passed without any Soulmancer from Texas appearing in New York, nor was there any news about Soulmancers from Texas.

During these two days, Alice was quite cautious, following William everywhere.

At night, she went to his house for power enhancement training, and during the day, she trained at the bookstore. Moreover, she had built a very good relationship with the Soulmancers in the bookstore.

Alice, the little rich girl, bought plenty of gourmet food online. These Soulmancers already owed her a favor, and now they were even more indebted, as they were eating her food. If the Soulmancers from Texas came to kill Alice at this time, it would be inappropriate for them not to act.

"Master, do you think they've given up on killing me? It's been two days," Alice said, sitting beside William, curiously looking at him.

Had her master already dealt with them?

Like those 'demi-gods' in Maplewood Town.

"You really seem to have a lot of free time." William put down his phone and glanced at her, "Do you really think the people below can protect you?"

As he was speaking, a call from Wes came through, addressed to Alice.

Alice answered the call and heard Wes ask, "Alice, are you at Cozy Book Haven?"

"Yes! What's up?" Alice became a bit nervous. Could someone be coming to kill her?

"The Soulmancers from Texas want to apologize to you and hope for peaceful coexistence in the future. What do you think?" Wes was also puzzled.

Today, Jayce had approached him with a very humble attitude, apologizing and hoping to be forgiven by Wes and Alice.

"Apologize?" Alice was stunned. She had seen the video Wes sent out, knowing that she had killed Wesley that night, the son of the current head of the Johnson family.

And the people from the other two families, they had irreconcilable feuds with her.

Jayce was actually not pursuing the matter further and was apologizing to her?

"An apology... that's not necessary," Alice said with a twitch of her mouth, "Let's just live in peace from now on."

"I'm already near Hudson University with Jayce," Wes, who was naturally kind-hearted, had been approached by Jayce earlier that day with a sincere apology, almost kneeling before him. He also mentioned that Darius had been severely punished for the previous incident.

He felt it would be inappropriate not to forgive them under these circumstances, especially since they had lost a son and their emotional outburst at the time was understandable...

After all, the incident had passed, and there was no need to dwell on it.

"Then I'll wait for you at the bookstore entrance," Alice said, descending the stairs.

"Let's go have a look," William said, putting down his phone and standing up. He had already sensed two peculiar auras nearby.

Interestingly, these auras seemed oddly familiar to him.

Knowing he had no descendants over the years, these two people couldn't possibly be related to him by blood,it must be just a similarity in the source of their powers.

And these were souls that had escaped from the underworld!

How many years had it been since he'd seen such a phenomenon?

Alice, thinking William was just concerned about her safety, smiled broadly and stepped aside to let William lead the way.

Wes and Jayce, along with Luna and Erebus, arrived at the bookstore entrance shortly after. These two had completely concealed their auras, making even Nelson, a peak high-level Soulmancer, unable to discern their true forms.

William's gaze swept over the pair, sensing they were ancient, otherworldly beings. One was the shadowy giant wolf Fenrir, and the other resembled a phoenix from ancient legends?

Are there really such beings still alive in this world?

Just recently, William had scanned the globe with his divine consciousness and hadn't detected their presence, so they must have just emerged from some other space.

Most importantly, the aura on them must have been imparted by that entity William had expelled from his body, giving them new life.

"Alice, I am truly sorry. Today, Deputy Director Wenzel and I reviewed the surveillance footage and it was indeed my foolish son who tried to ambush you. His death was deserved," Jayce said. "Let's consider all that has happened a misunderstanding." noVe.1b)In

Alice could hardly believe Jayce's magnanimity. His son had died, yet he was apologizing to his son's killer.

Even if the root cause of the incident was indeed Wesley's fault, this level of integrity from a father seemed a bit too much.

Of course, she couldn't know that all this was at Luna's behest.

"Mr. Johnson, you really don't have to do this. It's my fault for not holding back..." Alice also felt awkward. With Jayce apologizing, she needed to give him a way to save face.

The Soulmancers inside the bookstore all came out, thinking Jayce was coming to seek retribution. They didn't expect him to be so spineless, apologizing right away. He must be scared!

Erebus's eyes stayed on Alice, especially fixated when he saw the segment of a jade dragon's tendon wrapped around her wrist, causing him to lose his composure.

A jade dragon's tendon?!

How could she possibly possess such a thing?
