James nodded. He was unsure of Farley’s plans but would hazard a guess that he intended to mislead the Divinity’s
Sect and try to force them into action. Then, he could wipe them all out in one fell swoop.
After speaking, Farley sat in a lotus position on the ground and closed his eyes.
“Sir Gideon?” James called out with some hesitation.
Farley opened his eyes and looked at James, saying, “From this point, I’ll be hiding all signs I’m alive. I’ll appear
dead to everyone, and the news will surely spread throughout the Ancient Clan. Perhaps it might even become a
worldwide sensation. You’ll be the only one who knows that I’m in a state of suspended animation. I hope you help
me keep it a secret.”
James nodded and replied earnestly, “Alright. I won’t tell anyone.”
Meanwhile, Quintina was still waiting outside the cave.

She anxiously paced back and forth, waiting for him.
James walked out of the cave just as she was about to rush in to check on them.
As soon as she saw James, she rushed over and grabbed him, asking, “How did it go? How’s my father?”
James looked at Quintina and uttered some brief consolation, “My condolences.”
“Huh?”
Quintina was stunned. After a few seconds, she rushed into the cave and saw Farley sitting in a lotus position on the
ground lifelessly. She immediately rushed over and shook Farley.
“Father!”
As soon as she shook him, he fell to the ground.
“Ahh!!!” Quintina bawled out.
Her cries attracted the disciples guarding the mountain. Soon, many people rushed over and saw Farley’s body on
the ground. Immediately, these guards knelt on the ground.
“Lord Yoan…”
Many
clan members made their way to the cave.
Thoryn also arrived on the scene. Seeing Farley’s collapsed body on the ground, he sighed helplessly. “In the end,
he couldn’t make it.
Thoryn issued the order, “Pass on the message that the opening of the Pagoda of Flames will also be delayed.
Everything else will be continued after our clan leader’s funeral and the appointment of a new clan leader
The night passed by silently
The next morning, a black cloth was hung in Mount Trinvard’s main hall. All the Ancient Clan’s members wore black
funeral clothing. In front of the main hall was a coffin with a mat)
lying within it.

“Announce to the world that the Ancient Clan’s leader has passed away. Invite those with close connections with our
clan to attend his memorial service.”
Thoryn stood in front of the main hall and issued the order.
Inside the hall, many people kneeled before the coffin. Keeling in the front was Quintina, who also wore black
clothes.
At that moment, more people walked into the hall.
Yoan, James, the Divine Holy Emperor, and Harold were among the crowd. The Infernal Emperor, Emperor
Tamerlan, and their disciples also attended the funeral.
As soon as the Divine Holy Emperor entered the hall, he asked, “What’s going on? Did someone die?”
Although he was sure it was the Ancient Clan’s leader, he had not confirmed it yet.
Standing in the main hall, Thoryn said apologetically, “My apologies, Divine Holy Emperor. Our clan leader has
passed away, and the opening of the Pagoda of Flames will have to be postponed for now. After the funeral, we’ll
appoint a new clan leader and proceed with the competition.”
“My condolences.”
The Divine Holy Emperor walked up to the coffin and bowed gently.
