"It is fine, that is a hurdle you have to cross yourself," Odino spoke with a tint of sadness in his voice. But that quickly got away.
Vik also regained his composure and retracted his gaze from the nervous Gravitar. Instead, he asked Odino sternly. "Elder Odino, what should I do next?"
"You shou- " Odino didn't finish his sentence and brought something out of his storage ring.
Reg was able to recognize what it was. 'It is the communication jade talisman.'
Odino injected his spiritual sense inside and read the incoming message.
Everyone held their breath as they could feel, Odino frowning from time to time.
After Odino was done reading it, he said to Joy and Roy, sternly. "The competition is finished. Pack up everything, we have to leave now. The sect has announced an immediate summon."
Joy asked curiously. "But, Elder Odino, what about the participants?"
Everyone in the room had that exact question on their mind.
"Bring the top two hundred, and…bring that Yuki kid too." Odino stood up as he said it.
"As you wish." Joy and Roy bowed their heads and went to announce this sudden change.
Julie stood up and asked Odino, who was walking away. "Elder Odino, did something very serious happen?"
She and others were worried. They didn't know what kind of danger the sect would face if they had to make a sudden, immediate summon.
Odino looked at Julie and said with a smile. "Nothing serious happened. The suzerain wants to discuss something important. But he said not to be worried, nothing serious will happen."
The others didn't question as Odino had already told them the reason.
…
Right after Joy and Roy announced the sudden change, it spread surprise and worry among many.
Jack asked, raising his eyebrows. "What do you think?"
"I think something is about to happen; it can't be just that simple, " Ban said grimly.
"Whatever happens, if we are just strong enough, we could swat away any troubles that come toward us." Jack walked away after saying and Ban later followed behind him.
pαпdα Йᴏνê1,сòМ …
At the town gate, where Odino and others came in from before.
One could see the heavy crowd again. This time they were here to say their goodbyes to the participants who were able to enter the top two hundred.
Reg, who was in the front row because of Julie, watched as the selected disciples got up the Flame Eagle Rocs back.
'These look so majestic and awesome. I want a special beast like that myself.' Reg had a slight yearning in his heart. He felt having a special beast as a pet would help him in many ways.
After everyone got up on the Flame Eagle Rocs, they started to flap their wings to fly away.
At that moment, Reg got Odino's mental communication.
'Kid, don't get into a big mess. We might need you in the future.'
Reg looked at Odino's face but couldn't see it as they were already gone. Reg contemplated silently. 'What did he mean? I could hear a slight concern in his voice.'
Eventually, Reg decided to think about it later as they had to head toward their respectable homes.
…
Burnheart Family.
Brustiar and others quickly came in and went to see who had actually died.
When they came into the middle of their family mansion, they saw three dead bodies of youths. One was a girl and the other two were boys.
Among Brustiar's group, someone sprung out of them and headed toward the dead girl's body. It was Amelia's father, one of the elders in the Burnheart Family.
Amelia's father came before his daughter's body and expressed his grief loudly. The two boys' bodies were occupied by their own respectable family members.
Brustiar and others' faces turned in sadness at having to see this scene again. They had seen the same thing with Elder Thunder.
Elder Thunder looked at this scene too and silently thought of a plan like a wise, cunning old man. 'I will have to further implant my plans furthermore. That little monkey is jumping too much. I have to finish him fast or more tragedies will happen and my dream of controlling this family will be forever gone.'
At that moment, Brustiar and Gravitar's eyes widened as they suddenly got a message from the ancestors.
"A guest?" Gravitar questioned Brustiar with odd eyes. They walked away and headed toward the patriarchal hall to discuss some stuff among themselves.
Brustiar shook his head. "I don't know it myself. Also, why are they trying to have us find a young and beautiful girl?"
"It has to be to entertain guests. I think we can manage one." Gravitar said nonchalantly.
Brustiar frowned his eyebrows. "Are you thinking this through carefully? Did you not see the sudden spike in girls getting kidnapped? If someone finds out we are kidnapping a girl at this moment, we will be labeled as the real culprit by everyone."
"Let's wait a little then?" Gravitar asked as they arrived before the patriarchal hall.
Brustiar nodded his head and entered the hall.
…
Ragingwave Clan.
"Huh? What did you say? You spotted some kind of small army stationed inside the forest?" Galibar asked the man in front of him who worked for their clan's intelligence team.
"Yes, Patriarch Galibar." The man nodded his head. "We can't properly estimate how big their numbers are as our team would get caught just getting close to them. They are in dark green armor, and their leader is a big, intimidating man who feels almost as strong as the head elder, Mingxi."
"Oh." Galibar raised his eyebrows, and his worries started to increase a bit more.
"By the way, Patriarch Galibar, we were able to notice something common in them, other than their armor."
"What is it?" Galibar asked, squinting his eyes.
The man hesitated a little, then decided to answer. "They all had green hairs. So.. we suspect-"
The man wasn't able to finish his sentence as Galibar completed it for him with his eyes wide open. "PoisonFire Clan!"
