After becoming the young family head, there were many ceremonies, training procedures and teaching that needs to take place before the young family head gains the power and authority of the family head.

This was to make sure that even if one was worthy in terms of power, they were also mature and knowledgable enough to make decisions for the whole family and taught the young family head most of what they would be expected to know as a family head.

It could take as little as a few days, or could even take years depending on the young family head, but until all the elders accepted the young family head and believed that they were ready after completing all the procedures, they couldn't become the actual family head.

Unless anything unexpected happened, Angela and Cole were guaranteed to become the family head and they were already on track to quickly becoming the full-fledged family heads after their rapid maturation due to Adam.

The great elder and Mason were both held in the detention centre that was built beneath the Epstein Family Headquarters and it was almost impossible for even a peak Advanced Cultivator to break out, let alone the great elder and Mason who were massively weakened and damaged.

It was guarded 24 hours a day by trained and powerful guards from the Epstein Family's that were at least peak Novice Cultivators and there were many different arrays in place, that made it even harder to break out of the cells.

Placed on the great elder and Mason were energy dampening handcuffs, which would slow down and make it very difficult for one to circulate and wield their Internal Energy and also weakened their External Cultivation.

After hearing all the security in place, Cole was sure that the killer of his father, his mother and his grandfather would be detained and sent a few skilled medics to each of them to make sure that they didn't die.

It was important for them to live so that he could get information from them and also punish them publically before the family so that they could pay for their crimes and be used as an example.

Despite only being the young family head that had appeared out of nowhere, all of his orders were followed and his position within the family had been cemented in the mind of most of the Epstein Family members.

Cole noticed many rushing to leave the arena and ordered all the elders to capture and detain any suspicious individuals that had left early and found that many of the spectators were spies from the other families.

It was inevitable that spies from other families would make it through, but the numbers that he had managed to capture were shocking and showed him just how disorganised and unprepared the famed Epstein Family was.

It had all the knowledge, wealth and capability that they needed to become the strongest family in not only New York, but maybe even other cities, but their complacency was holding them back.

They had gotten comfortable in their position as the mass producer of cultivation goods and research family, but Cole was planning to change that and develop the family even more.

After everything was sorted out and the arena cleared, all the spies were also detained and they were going to be interrogated for information so that they could find out more about other families.

Cole and the elders were sure that it wouldn't spark a war between the cultivation families as it was them who had sent the spies in the first place, but he knew that the tension in New York was continually increasing.

More guards were stationed and there were many things that Cole was planning to implement, but just like Angela, Cole had pushed his mind, body and spirit past their limits and needed to rest and recover.

The elders saw that he was eager to begin solving the family's problems and officially inherit the position of the family head, but his fatigue was obvious and he was given the great elder's old quarters to rest and live in.

It was at the top of the Family Headquarters and most of the elders lived in the building or in a nearby building, so everyone was sure that Cole was safe and after cleaning himself and changing his clothes, Cole went straight to sleep.

He didn't know how long he slept for, but he knew it was a very long time and felt much better when he woke up.

Since everything had worked out, Cole checked his phone that he hadn't used much since he was more focused on his training and found dozens of messages and missed calls from Sarah and Emma.

His phone was a untraceable phone that his father had given him and he could only be contacted by numbers that were also untraceable.

He only had a few contacts on his phone which were Adam, Sarah, Emma and his father and all of them used untraceable phones and sim cards, but there was another number that had messaged him that he didn't recognise.

After reading the message that was clearly from Adam, Cole smiled and saved the number as Angela's like the message had told him to do.

Looking at all of Emma and Sarah's messages, he felt guilty and knew that he had hardly spent any time with them and would disappear for long periods of time where he would be training, but at the time, it was necessary for him to do so.

He had ignored all of their messages and calls and would have his phone off most of the time as he didn't know what to tell them and was more focused on increasing his power.

Since he had become the young family head, Cole knew that he would probably be even busier than he was before and was contemplating whether or not to tell Emma the truth, but suddenly his phone began to ring.
