Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 3313 Julius' face remained cold, showing no hint of joy. He had fled from Thunder Sect the moment Andrew shattered its grand formation. Julius knew well enough that he could never break through Thunder Sect's formation, but Andrew had actually done it. Two years ago, Andrew had been nothing more than a nobody in Julius' eyes, someone he could kill with a single move. Yet in just two short years, Andrew had become frighteningly powerful.

Julius had always been a man who feared nothing and no one, but Andrew's overwhelming presence forced him to abandon his plan to team up with Rupert and kill Andrew immediately. Running was the only option. Julius had come straight to the Umbral Peak Sect. Originally, Julius had zero interest in cooperating with the Umbral Peak Sect. The sect was gloomy, strange, and unsettling, and Julius had always looked down on them. But now, he had no other choice, because he had few potential allies left. He was not willing to face Andrew alone.

At the very least, it would take two ancient sects joining forces to stand a chance. ---- Thinking about how he had fled pathetically from the Western Regions to the Thunder Sect, then from there to the Umbral Peak Sect, Julius felt deeply humiliated. At the same time, his murderous intent toward Andrew had only grown stronger. He could not defeat Reginald, and now he was being hunted by Reginald's son. This father and son from the Lloyd family made Julius hate them to the bone.

Soon enough, Julius arrived at the mountain gate of Umbral Peak Sect, escorted by one of its elders, his presence once again imposing. Umbral Peak Sect always kept a low profile, yet it walked a thin line between righteous and wicked. People from the sect were often involved in brutal acts throughout the martial world. In the past, Julius would have scored them as petty criminals. But now, he had to lower himself and seek refuge at the Umbral Peak Sect.

The sect's main hall was not particularly grand, and the entire place had an eerie, ghostly atmosphere The Divine Alchemists' disciples were all getting spooked. However, seeing Julius show no signs of stopping, they steeled themselves and followed. ---- Before long, inside a natural cavern, Julius and the Divine Alchemists finally met the upper ranks of the Umbral Peak Sect. Umbral Peak Sect's master was Monty Reyes. Among the Eight Ancient Sects, he kept the lowest profile, but rumor had it that his martial prowess was the most formidable.

It was said that even Luther of Mount Lourneau could only defeat Monty by half amove. Julius found this claim contemptible, as he had always thought highly of himself. Still, the Umbral Peak Sect's power came not just from Monty but also from its unclear ties to the Reyes family. Holtrien's elite all knew that the Reyes family had close ties with the Umbral Peak Sect. However, few knew the specifics. Besides Monty, the Umbral Peak Sect had another renowned master: the Eastern Wanderer. Andrew had once wanted to find the Eastern Wanderer to learn how to break the seal on his energy core "Mr.

Bowen, you've come from so far away, and we failed to greet you properly. Please forgive us!" Monty was a clean-shaven, scholarly-looking man in white robes, and cutting a dashing figure. He stood up immediately to ---- welcome Julius' arrival No matter how arrogant Julius was, he still returned the courtesy with a bow. "Mr. Reyes, | hope I'm not intruding." Monty smiled warmly. "Not at all. Just now, | heard from our elder that you came from Thunder Sect?" Julius replied coolly, "That's right, just came from Thunder Sect." Monty chuckled. "How strange.

If you were already visiting the Thunder Sect, why would you suddenly come to our Umbral Peak Sect?" Julius snorted coldly, knowing the man was deliberately trying to humiliate him. In other words, Monty was exposing the fact that he had fled to the Umbral Peak Sect for his life. "Mr. Reyes, | came here to seek an alliance with the Umbral Peak Sect," Julius said in a deep voice. He added, "Our Eight Ancient Sects may not interact much, but we are bound together. If one thrives, all thrives. If one falls, all fall. To be honest, Thunder Sect has already been taken by Andrew.

Next, it will be Umbral Peak Sect's turn." Monty still wore a smile. "| know a bit about that boy's abilities. But this is the Umbral Peak Sect's territory. | doubt he'd dare to act rashly here, and even if he dared, he wouldn't be able to do much." ---- Julius laughed coldly. "Mr. Reyes, Rupert thought the same way. But in the end, Andrew split open Thunder Sect's defensive formation with a single sword strike, and Thunder Sect's thousand-year legacy was destroyed by Andrew in an instant. What if, just what if, Umbral Peak Sect ends up walking the same path? | wonder then, Mr.

Reyes, if you would still be able to smile like this."
