Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 2017

Outside Pearl Light Isle, the peak masters and sect elders who came from the other mountains were all standing suspended in mid-air. The Thunderbolt Tribulation during Selene's breakthrough was so shocking that the entire Grandiuno Sect had been drawn to them. The peak masters and elders were not going to take any chances, so they decided to visit Pearl Light Isle in person and see what was going on there.

The Sixth Mountain's Daniella, the Eighth Mountain's Rowan, and the Seventh Mountain's Myles had the same thought of sending a message to Pearl Light Isle. At that moment, Oskar sensed the scene from inside the island as he was about to leave and cursed under his breath, "These people are such sly foxes. Every tiny little fluctuation on Pearl Light Isle will send them all flocking right here."

Oskar then stepped out into the void, but it gave the impression that he teleported right to the other end of the defensive formation covering Pearl Light Isle. He appeared right in front of the peak masters, startling them speechless. They immediately bowed in greeting upon seeing that it was Oskar. "Hello, Sect Leader."

Oskar nodded and raised his hand. An invisible force straightened everyone up, and he said slowly, "You may return."

Myles felt compelled to venture forward and ask Oskar, "If I may… can I ask what was with the Thunderbolt Tribulation?"

"I cannot tell you," Oskar answered curtly in a calm and composed tone. Seeing as Myles was unable to get any information out of them, the other peak masters understood that Oskar was not keen on disclosing anything.

Since they were essentially uninvited guests, they had to respect Oskar's decision to send them on their way. Rowan snapped back to his senses at once and gestured respectfully to Oskar. "We shall excuse ourselves then."

Oskar nodded and said, "Good."

"Could there be something extraordinary about Selene?"

Many elders were shocked and envious. In their opinion, Selene's apprenticeship with Oskar would give her much influence in the future. After all, it would be ludicrous for anyone to treat her disrespectfully when she was the sect leader's apprentice.

Myles then muttered to himself, "Wait… first, there was the Thunderbolt Tribulation. Then he recruited her as an apprentice. Does that mean..." Myles' pupils shrank in surprise as he put two and two together. Daniella and Rowan had similarly shocked expressions.

In less than a few minutes, the peak masters outside Pearl Light Isle left in streaks of light back to where they originally came from. Though the Thunderbolt Tribulation on Pearl Light Isle had left everyone curious, the elders and peak masters had some idea of what had happened when Oskar left them the remark about wanting to take Selene as an apprentice.
