Chapter 1995: Chapter 1995: The Mysterious Salena Carpenter_1 Chapter 1995: Chapter 1995: The Mysterious Salena Carpenter_1 Ethan Smith's face darkened as he looked at the Crown Prince and said, “So, they might take advantage of this opportunity to revoke all the privileges of Sky City?”

“Yes.” The Crown Prince did not hide anything.

Ethan Smith frowned, “Don't you have the right to object?”

“I do, but what's the use of fighting nine votes against one?” The Crown Prince said mockingly.

Ethan Smith scratched his head.

It was troublesome; once the status of Sky City was revoked, it would mean that staying here would be unsafe.

“It seems we must find a way to leave here as soon as possible,” Ethan Smith said solemnly.

Sharing the same thought, the Crown Prince said, “Let's leave before the conference starts. This time, they are targeting not only the royal family but mainly you.”

“No time to lose, I'll leave now,” Ethan Smith said coldly.

After saying that, Ethan Smith called Salena Carpenter, and the two quickly packed up their belongings and prepared to leave.

However, when they reached the edge of the city, they found that the whole of Sky City had already been sealed off.

Outside the city, magical artifacts were densely arranged, and stepping into the city would result in a life-threatening crisis.

“It seems we can't get out,” Ethan Smith furrowed his brow.

The actions of the Nine Major Families were much faster than imagined, seemingly trying to catch fish in a barrel.

Standing at the gate, Ethan Smith could clearly feel several cold gazes from the shadows. Perhaps they had already arranged their manpower and were just waiting for the status of Sky City to disappear.

Left with no choice, Ethan Smith and Salena Carpenter had to return to the Imperial Palace for now.

Inside the Imperial Palace, the faces of the Crown Prince and Ethan Smith were extremely gloomy, and they couldn't think of any countermeasures.

“It seems we can only take one step at a time,” Ethan Smith sighed.

If all else failed, Ethan Smith could only try to change his appearance again and find an opportunity to escape.

Salena Carpenter was Dean Garner's closed-door disciple, so they wouldn't do anything to her.

The next day.

Alfred Freeman, who had been unconscious all this time, finally woke up.

With Master Nebula accompanying him, he came to the Imperial Palace.

As soon as he saw Ethan Smith, tears streamed down Alfred Freeman's face uncontrollably.

He rushed forward and hugged Ethan Smith, crying out a handful of tears and snot. Because of his heart-wrenching sobs, his whole body was practically convulsing.

“Clay h-he…Clay he…woo hoo hoo….” Alfred Freeman sobbed, almost fainting.

Although the two often quarreled, their relationship was deep. Now that Clay had passed away first, how could he not be in pain?

Ethan Smith hugged Alfred Freeman, feeling even more uneasy in his heart.

“It's my fault, all my fault.” Ethan Smith held Alfred Freeman tightly, mixed emotions in his heart.

Alfred Freeman wiped away his tears, his face filled with grief and indignation, “It's not your fault. It's all Marc Fraley's fault! I'll tear him apart! I'll kill him!”

Seeing Alfred Freeman's fighting spirit, Ethan Smith couldn't help but sigh.

Alfred Freeman's cultivation talent wasn't very high. Even if he tried his hardest, dealing with Marc Fraley was almost an impossible task.

“I will avenge Clay,” Ethan Smith patted Alfred Freeman on the shoulder and sighed softly.

Salena Carpenter, who was beside them, also hurriedly comforted, “Alfred, don't be too sad. Although Clay is dead, his divine sense is still intact. Perhaps he could be reincarnated someday.”

Despite the comforting words, Alfred Freeman knew better.

Whether or not he could be reincarnated was an unknown, and even if he could, that person wouldn't be Clay.

“Aunt Salena, I…” Alfred Freeman opened his mouth, and tears couldn't help but flow again.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Salena Carpenter pulled Alfred Freeman and said, “Alright, I'll treat you to a drink today. Let's get drunk or never return!”

After saying that, she took Alfred Freeman to a tavern without any further ado.

That day, Alfred Freeman got drunk, and despite his usually good tolerance, he quickly lost consciousness.

Looking at Alfred Freeman, who was lying on the table with tears still in his eyes, Salena Carpenter didn't say a word, lost in thought.

“Let's take him back,” Ethan Smith didn't think much of it, assuming that Salena Carpenter was just feeling upset.

Then, Ethan Smith took Alfred Freeman, and they returned to the Imperial Palace.

That day, Sky City seemed quite calm, but in reality, there were undercurrents surging.

Many breaths had secretly entered Sky City; they had sneaked into Sky City before the conference began.

These breaths were all extremely powerful. With his divine sense sweeping, there were at least nearly a hundred.

This was enough to show that the Nine Major Families were playing for real this time; they were no longer using any conspiracies or tricks but were planning to directly revoke the special status of Sky City.

“There seem to be a lot of unfamiliar faces in Sky City,” a powerful cultivator who had been living in Sky City couldn't help but sigh.

“Sky City will probably never be peaceful again. Wanting to find tranquility is just wishful thinking.”

“Hehe, in the Great Era of the Golden Age, no one can avoid being affected by turbulence. The only option is to find a star field to live in seclusion.”

As people entered Sky City, others left, and the pattern of Sky City had already quietly changed.

Another day passed, and the representatives of the Nine Major Families arrived at Sky City one after another.

Most of them were elders with high positions and, naturally, extremely powerful abilities in their families.

That night, all the major families arrived at the Imperial Palace one after another.

For a time, the sky was filled with divine vehicles, casting shadows on the ground. The terrifying aura lingered in the city, casting a layer of unease over everyone's hearts.

“It's finally happening.” Ethan Smith looked up at the majestic procession of vehicles, his face somber.

Salena Carpenter was unusually quiet. She looked up at the procession of vehicles, her face expressionless.

Afterward, these people gathered inside the Imperial Palace and exchanged pleasantries with the Crown Prince.

Ethan Smith glanced around, noticing that only seven of the aristocratic families had arrived in Sky City.

“It seems that the people of the Taylor and Wilson families haven't arrived yet,” Ethan Smith frowned.

Could it be that these two families were coming together?

“I really don't know what choice the Taylor Family will make,” Ethan Smith felt uneasy.

If the Nine Major Families were really bundled together, how would he face Emily Taylor in the future?

The Strive of the Great Era was an extremely shocking event for the entire Holy Region. The Nine Major Families hadn't met together for a very long time, and their every move could affect the power structure of the entire Holy Region.

Therefore, besides their people, there were also many powerful rogue cultivators who took the opportunity to enter Sky City.

With so many people and all sorts of eyes, no one knew who anyone was.

As Ethan Smith and Salena Carpenter walked down the streets of Sky City, they found that the already bustling streets had become even more prosperous.

People with altered faces using secret techniques were everywhere. Some had hazy faces, some wore veils, and others covered their faces with huge bamboo hats.

This might be the most lax time for Sky City's defenses, but during this time, Sky City was open only for entry, not exit.
