Breakthrough

While the two branch leaders and the branches are in turmoil with the newfound information, Sam and his team appeared near the Thunder Phoenix valley.

Currently, the valley is on a complete lockdown and a couple of elders are patrolling it along with the guard team.

The valley is the reason for the small group of elders to not participate in the fight against Sam.

Otherwise, these people might also have been done for.

Even though there is not much security and there are definitely not many people here, Sam didn't immediately make a move, because currently, Night Ghost is about to make a breakthrough.

So, Sam and the team camped a few kilometers away from the valley and let him breakthrough. If he broke through they would have an Initial stage Consummate at hand. Even though he just broke through, he is still on that level and could kill the enemies when used in a perfect plan.

They didn't hurry.
