The Fourth Elder’s words shocked the First Elder. He suddenly thought of something—after all, quite a few of his disciples had gone to kill the people who had barged into the sacred grounds. If the Fourth Elder said something like this, something had probably happened to one of his disciples.
He immediately stood out. “Has one of my disciples died there, Fourth Elder?” he asked.
The Fourth Elder nodded his head. “It’s Simon. I didn’t think that I would see his body today!”
“What! Why him?”
The First Elder took a sharp intake of breath, nearly fainting from anger. The news felt like lightning flashing out of a clear blue sky. This was way out of his imagination.
“No way.”
The Sixth Elder also shot to his feet when he heard this. “Simon is the First Elder’s best disciple, and he broke into the seventh-grade ultimate god-level long ago. Why would he die? Are you sure you didn’t mix anyone up? Perhaps you saw wrongly.”
“That’s right. Fourth Elder, this–this isn’t a joke!”
The Third Elder also quickly chimed in. It was evident that everyone did not dare to believe that this was true.
“If Simon is truly dead, that means that our opponent is at least at the eighth-grade ultimate god-level. Seems like the Nine Armies have sent a truly powerful fighter. Perhaps even a fortress master of some fortress has made a move!”
At that moment, Edward’s face had gone grey. Never mind that he was in the seventh-grade ultimate god-level, Simon was still young, and he was considered a unique genius in their clan. He had an extremely bright future.
The Fourth Elder clenched his fists. After he said that, he flew into the forest again.
“Huff!”
At this moment, in a mountain cave, Fane released a long huff. “We saved plenty of people these past two days. There were a few times where we didn’t dare to take action because our enemies’ cultivation levels were too high, but I’m satisfied with the results anyway. Furthermore, we killed plenty of disciples from the Bloodshed Clan while we were saving the others. Now the Bloodshed Clan must be furious.”
Nash also nodded his head. “Now we can cultivate ourselves. Let’s work hard, everyone. Let’s use this night to make a breakthrough. After all, we’re now completely familiar with this new martial art technique. Our cultivation speed is a lot faster compared to before. Once we use the pills to cultivate ourselves, we’ll be completely refreshed and stronger tomorrow!”
Kenneth also spoke with a grin, “Never mind feeling stronger tomorrow. At least it won’t be so easy for them to kill us. Besides, if Young Master Fane makes the tiniest breakthrough, hehe, even those at the ninth-grade ultimate god-level probably won’t stand a chance against him!”
