My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 2521

In that instant, it seemed as if Nash suddenly sensed something and began to retreat repeatedly. "Something's wrong! We need to leave now!"

Philemon and Tobiah were particularly puzzled. They had clearly captured Maxim, so why did they need to escape?

At that moment, the once-solid emerald surface began to shake. Philemon and Tobiah looked over in terror.

Just two seconds later, a small crack appeared on the surface of the emerald.

Philemon could hardly believe his eyes.

"This... How is this possible?"

Then, more cracks began to emerge one after another.

Philemon finally reacted. "Mr. Goldberg, we need to get out of here!"

Philemon and Tobiah quickly retreated to a safe distance.

Just as they stepped back, the emerald lid shattered, releasing an incredibly dangerous surge of true energy.

In the next moment, a brilliant golden light erupted. The entire arena was engulfed in that golden glow, causing heavy casualties.

The next second, the golden light flattened the entire battlefield.

Philemon and Tobiah miraculously survived.

At that moment, Nash squinted, carefully observing Maxim at the epicenter of the explosion.

"Strange... Very strange..."

Maxim was bathing in the golden light.

Just then, someone had already approached the base of the Celestial Tree, and a narrow crack opened on the trunk.

One warrior after another walked toward the inside of the Celestial Tree, mesmerized.

They advanced one step at a time.

Just like that, the scene from a century ago reappeared before Maxim. Yet this time, he no longer resisted the Celestial Tree as he once had. Now, he hung motionless in the air, his spine linked to the Celestial Tree. He began to fulfill his role as the guardian.

At that moment, Nash noticed Huntley, who was also struggling against the enchantment not far away.

"Huntley!"

"Nash, what do we do now?"
