Elder Vyom hurriedly stepped forward to greet the coming person, as if it was his father. There was a smile on his face, and anyone could see that he wanted to please the newcomer.
Everyone was confused as to who this person riding the demonic beast was, and what was his status to make Elder Vyom so respectful.
And very soon, they got their answers.
The newcomer was a middle-aged man. He was the same disciple who reported to Henry about Alex. Henry wanted him to bring Alex to the Fourth Mountain Peak.
Nodding at Elder Vyom, the middle-aged man looked at the crowd of disciples and asked: "Who is Alex White?"
Alex was shocked. He could not understand why the other party was looking for him. For a moment, he even suspected that the other party was not looking for him but a person with the same name as him. However, even after waiting for more than a minute, no one came forward.
This told Alex that this middle-aged man was indeed looking for him.
It was not just Alex, even Eric and Slivya were shocked. They also could not understand why the middle-aged man was looking for Alex.
The middle-aged man frowned when he saw no one coming forward. He once again asked: "Who is Alex White? Come forward!"
Alex had nothing to hesitate about. He now knew that this middle-aged man was really here for him.
He soon stepped forward and said: "I'm Alex White!"
The middle-aged man nodded his head and a smile appeared on his face. He spoke: "My name is Morif Gazel, you can call me senior Morif. I'm here under successor disciple Henry's order to bring you to the Fourth Mountain Peak. Do you have any objection?"
What?
Everyone was shocked.
Among the crowd of people, only Alex, Eric, and Slivya were clueless about Henry. As for the others, all of them were well aware of who Henry is.
When they heard Morif's words, they were all shocked. They started discussing among themselves.
Hearing these people's discussions, Alex also understood who Henry is and what his status is.
It turned out that the Fourth Mountain Peak was the peak of alchemy. It was famous for alchemy, but this was not the limit of the Fourth Mountain Peak. There were still thousands of martial warriors.
The Peak Master of Fourth Mountain Peak was an initial Divine Lord Stage martial warrior. Henry, on the other hand, was the only disciple of the Fourth Peak Master. He was also the next-in-line peak master.
In short, he was the successor disciple who will succeed his master and become the Fourth Peak Master in the future.
Henry was also at the Perfection level of the Holy Lord Stage and was just a step away from becoming an Extreme-levelled Holy Lord.
Alex just could not understand why Henry was looking for him. Was there any specific reason? Most importantly, how did Henry even know about him?
But when he thought about his display of strength during the three stages of tests, he soon understood that his performance must have caught Henry's attention.
Whatever it was, it was a good thing for him. He also wanted to enter the Nine Star Mountain Sect so that he could gather information about Heavenly Ice Palace, and go there.
In the past few days, he did try to find out about the Heavenly Ice Palace, but no one was aware of this place. So he was disappointed. He knew that he could only obtain this information in the Nine Star Mountain Sect.
Now that the opportunity was right in front of him, Alex will definitely not refuse. But he did not want to leave Eric and Slivya behind. He at least wanted them to enter the Nine Star Mountain Sect with him as well. And then, even if he will leave them there, he'll have nothing to worry about.
Before he left the Three Cultivation Lands, his master Valerio had given him the responsibility of these two people. Most importantly, Eric was also his cousin. As for Slivya, although he did not talk with her much and had no other special feelings toward her, he seemed to have a very strange connection with her. It was as if he knew her in the past.
Yes, he of course knew her. After all, he had seen her in the forest fighting a demonic beast and killing it with his own eyes. At that time, he was just a little Enlightenment Stage martial warrior.
But this was not it.
He seemed to have met her somewhere else as well, but even after trying so hard to remember, he could not get the answer at all, he could not tell where he had seen her.
Although Alex wanted to bring them to the Nine Star Mountain Sect with him, he knew he could not do that.
However, as long as he could become a disciple of the Nine Star Mountain Sect, he knew he could easily let these two people enter there as well.
But before that, he still asked: "May I know why successor disciple Henry wants to meet me?"
"You have to ask him yourself, I have no idea."
Although the middle-aged man already knew, he had no intention of telling Alex anything at all. He waved his hand and said: "Hurry up and come. Senior Henry does not like to wait for others!"
Alex nodded and then looked at Eric and Slivya. Seeing that they waved at him and were gesturing to go, he knew that they understood this matter very well, and believed in him. They believed that he will not abandon them here.
Without saying anything, Alex jumped onto the back of the demonic beast.
After that, under the middle-aged man's order, the demonic beast flew into the sky, flying directly above the cloud, revealing the bustling sect at the peak of the Fourth Mountain. Just this place alone was even bigger than a huge country, not to mention there were still other eight mountain peaks just like this.
The demonic beasts soon descended into a small grass field. This field was "small" just to say, however, it was even bigger than the Profound Star Sect.
There were many demonic beasts playing in this grass field, and many disciples were also here to take care of these beasts.
The most eye-catching demonic beast among them was a beautiful horse with a pair of big white wings. There seemed to be a cloud below its feet. Most importantly, a mighty aura could be felt from this horse, as if it was the king of all demonic beasts.
No demonic beast dared to approach this horse.
When the middle-aged saw Alex intently looking at the winged horse, he chuckled and said: "This is the Chasing Cloud Dragon Horse. This is the favorite demonic beast of Young Master Henry, and also his only ride. This Chasing Cloud Dragon Horse also does not let anyone come near it other than Young Master Henry. Whoever dared to go near it, it will attack and heavily injure them."
"The Chasing Cloud Dragon Horse is an Extreme-leveled Divine Lord Stage demonic beast. It is much more powerful than most of the disciples here, even more powerful than Young Master Henry himself."
This middle-aged man had changed his tone very quickly after coming here.
Before, he called Henry a successor disciple, but now, he was calling him Young Master.
Anyway, it has nothing to do with him. Henry did not think too much and simply nodded his head.
When he was intently looking at the demonic beast, he was actually looking at its information panel.

.....
The middle-aged man brought Alex in front of a magnificent palace. At first glance, it was a tower, however, at the next glance, it was a Palace.
This palace was built in a way that anyone would be confused and think if it is a palace or a tower.
Two guards were standing on high alert in front of the palace door, guarding this place with extreme seriousness.
When they saw the middle-aged man leading Alex there, they stopped them and said: "No one is allowed to enter. Go back!"
Alex frowned but the middle-aged man had no change of expression. He seemed to have expected this result. He smiled and said: "It was Young Master Henry's order to bring this person here. Please go and inform Young Master Henry that I have brought Alex White!"
The two guards looked at each other and then nodded.
"Wait then!"
After saying this, one of them entered the palace to confirm whether the middle-aged man told him the truth or lied to him.
Well, even though he knew that no one would dare to lie here, he still needed to confirm.
