Chapter 1020 Take Me as Your Disciple
Julian looked perplexed.
The cultivators chuckled, and their lingering souls gradually dispersed within the formation. They
exhausted their cultivation to pacify the remnant souls.
Countless spiritual lights surged from the ground toward the sky.
Darkness began to descend, and everything began to fade away. Wynter knew that the formation was
about to dissipate. The students, who were unaware, were frightened and panicked.
Julian’s hand was also fading. “Mr. Trevino wants me to listen to you, and he-”
“Enough, Atwater. There’s no time. I’m Wynter Quinnell. Remember to come find me and accept me as
your apprentice.”
Wynter wanted to bring Celestial Dragon out before the formation completely disappeared. Her gaze swept over the formation’s entrance.
“I’ll definitely learn fortune–telling and the Arcane Way from you. I’ll also help you if you want to ascend.”
Julian was bewildered. “Me, accepting you as my apprentice? Are you confused?”
Before he could finish speaking, the mountain peak began to sway.
The students looked at each other. They began to scream incessantly as they watched themselves fade
away.
“Don’t panic. Once you’re completely gone, you can go back.” Wynter placed a token on each of them. It was linked to the mortal realm and would allow them to return safely without interference.
The girl in the Foplyanese outfit refused to obey. “Why should we trust you? Maybe you just don’t want us
to leave!”
Wynter clutched the urn with one hand and gripped Celestial Dragon with the other hand.
She sneered. “You think too highly of yourself. You don’t deserve to stay here. Go back. Only then can I
make you pay.”
The girl was the first to disappear. Everything around her began to change.
The final sight that the boy saw was a figure standing amidst heaven and earth. Just as when he had
arrived, he cast a rope and vanished into the boundless darkness.
The invisible energy dissipated halfway up the mountain.
Although everything was planned, Declan couldn’t fall asleep. By the time he slept, it was already in the wee hours of the morning. He was awakened by the crow’s cry.
The sound was not peaceful at all. Hearing it made people feel uneasy.

Declan got up, inexplicably breaking into a cold sweat. Overwhelmed with a sense of unease and irritability, he summoned the butler.
Liam also heard the sound and bravely opened the window. He saw a crow perched on a branch.
The crow was staring at them. It was extremely terrifying!
Liam trembled and almost dropped the lamp he was holding. “Mr. Quinnell, it’s a crow!”
Declan frowned. “A crow? How could there be a crow in the courtyard?”
Liam shook his head. He was also disgusted. Waving his hand, he drove it away. “Shoo! Go somewhere
else!”
He didn’t want to hear the bird’s calling. If it kept cawing, someone might get hurt.
However, the crow seemed unafraid of people. It looked at them before flying away.
Liam trembled again. “Mr. Quinnell, this-”
“Don’t scare yourself. Have there been fewer offerings in the courtyard recently?” Declan looked at him.
with a grim expression.
Liam shook his head vigorously. “No! Mr. Quinnell, you said that the courtyard matters are always a top
priority.”
Declan was suspicious. “Has anything happened?”
Liam followed him out. “The security room is watching it on 24–hour surveillance.”
Declan stopped in his tracks, and asked, “And what about Albert?”
Liam whispered, “That’s the thing that’s strange to me. Nothing has happened between Mr. Albert and Ms.
Horton.”

Declanis attention immediately shifted at those words
Liam adjusted the lamo slightly higher. “Mr. Quinnell, I’m concerned that Mr. Albert isn’t quite aligned with en His attitude toward Ms. Horton today wasn’t very welcoming
“That’s true Decian squinted. After all, he’s not like his dad. We’ll have to test his intentions.”
Albert had endured long enough, but he knew he couldn’t expose himself. He needed to give Wynter time.
Though Wynter had said he should follow his heart, he decided to wait for Wynter.
Albert also wanted to know what was going on with Declan, the Quinnell family’s savior, who was perfect in front of others
At the same time, in Quinnell Villa’s backyard, a crow emerged silently from a black mist, unseen by anyone. He had arrived on command.
Dalton couldn’t enter this formation, but the crow could. However….
“Lord, should we investigate Ms. Quinnell’s past life? The crow could see the mirror image in the formation
He continued, “The voluntary dissipation of a heroic spirit is understandable, but that Soul Commanding
Badge isn’t something just anyone can obtain, right?”
The crow scrutinized Daltors profile cautiously. “Lord, do you think Ms. Quinnell might be connected to
That-
The formation is breaking,” Dalton interrupted. His handsome face was devoid of emotion, but his pale complexion was stark against the night. “She’s coming out. Stay here.”
The crow caved softly.
Dalton’s dark eyes were unreadable. “Celestial Dragon is here. You two can catch up.”
“Are you suggesting I take Celestial Dragon to meet you?” the crow speculated.
Dalton supported himself with a black umbrella, gesturing for the crow to return to where he had landed.
To disguise himself as a common bird, he needed to suppress his presence. The crow swooped back.
Just as Dalton vanished, Wynter returned to the present world, still holding the cremation um.
The ashes were the only link between the present world and the Earthbound Formation.
If there were aches inside the formation, they must exist outside, too. Both needed to be unearthed to
nullify the current geomantic/layout
“Here? Wynter’s gaze swept over Whitley.
Whitley nodded at first, then seemed to sense something. He froze momentarily, and his eyes darted

toward the bushes on the right.
“What? Is something wrong?” Wynter now had a new understanding of Whitley.
She used to believe dragons could only control the weather, but after entering the formation with Whitley once, she realized his effectiveness surpassed any testing device.
Whitley stared at the bushes, seemingly hesitant. “It’s nothing. I must have been mistaken.”
“Be more confident in yourself.” As Wynter said that, she suddenly raised her right hand. The copper coin was flicked out and landed heavily on a branch, causing the tree to sway along with it.
The crow was startled. Since he had concealed his presence, no one should have been able to detect him except for Celestial Dragon. He didn’t expect a human to detect him.
To avoid exposure, the crow had no choice but to land on the ground and play dead, mimicking an ordinary bird.
After a glance at him, Wynter approached slowly and examined him with a neutral expression.
The crow dared not move. He lay there with his legs splayed out.
Suddenly, Wynter chuckled and lifted her gaze to Whitley. “Is this what you sensed?”
Whitley didn’t deny it.
Wynter casually toyed with her purple sugilite pendant as she addressed the crow casually, “How long do you plan on playing dead?”
The crow stiffened. Seriously?
“A crow playing dead so convincingly is quite rare.” With a smirk, Wynter picked it up. She asked Whitley, Do you know this crow?”
