Giyon didn’t reply for a moment and said.
“Don’t enter the clan. We don’t know how the situation will turn out. If they really just came with twenty-five people, they must be really powerful.
You are useless in this situation and will only get in the way.”
“I need to confirm that the kids are okay. My students and the babies. I need to make sure that all of them are safe before I get back.”
“Stop with your fucking paranoia, some lightning struck when the babies were born. Your obsession with looking into every single coincidence is not going to help you here. Get back to the stray realm now.”
Sam cut the communication token off and looked straight ahead. He knew that situation is dire. Nobody with the right mind will just come with twenty-five people and attack a behemoth like the Gaja clan.
Particularly not from the main gate like this.
They either have to be dumb as a rock or they are way too strong.
And he is pretty sure that the latter part is what made them come here.
He knew that he would have some serious trouble if he needs to go on and save the kids, but that still doesn’t mean he can just leave them there.
Particularly the students, cannot use spatial transference devices to escape. The transference tokens’ spatial transfer is a bit too rough. People who haven’t awakened wouldn’t be able to handle it.
He needs to find them and place them inside the divine dimension fragment he has before taking them away from there.
He thought for a moment and gritted his teeth before he ran in.
But as he was running he made a call to the subordinates of Grivon.
“Everyone, none of you shall enter the clan estate. The strength wouldn’t be sufficient. You would only be adding numbers to the death toll.
So, stay out of the estate, but keep a tight watch on the city. Anything that appears suspicious should be reported to me without any delay.”
He didn’t even wait for their reply as he ran in. His first destination is towards Jyon’s residence where kids are staying. Even though Jyon took them in when Sam moved to Giyon’s residence, they didn’t come back even after Jyon went for that tournament.
They are being taken care of by the attendants, so Giyon particularly didn’t feel the necessity to bring them back.
But when he is trying to make his way there, he saw some battle signs here and there and dead bodies that are popping up now and then.
He collected their souls to see any clues and finally he had some.
Giyon’s and Jyon’s residences are not that far away and when considering from clan’s gate they could be considered to be in the same direction.
From the memories of the dead, Sam saw four people coming to this place and right before this guy was dead, he saw them splitting up as they moved into four different directions.
One of them happened to be Giyon’s residence.
“One of them is coming to your residence. Are you prepared?”
Sam called her and asked.
“How do you know that?”
“I just know. Is it really important how?”
“I told you to stay the fuck away from the clan estate. What the hell are you doing inside?”
Giyon spoke up and Sam wanted to answer, but before he could do that…
*BOOM*
He heard an explosive sound from the other side and Giyon spoke up again.
“It seems like the asshole you mentioned just arrived. I am telling you once again. Get the fuck out of the clan estate. I will deal with these people myself.”
The communication was cut off and Sam looked a bit troubled. He doesn’t know if he should go to Giyon’s residence or if he should go to Jyon’s residence.
But that dilemma lasted only a few seconds. He immediately went to Jyon’s residence.
He is pretty sure that Giyon would be able to handle herself and there is not much he can do in terms of combat even if he wants to help them.
So, he decided to go for the children directly.
Luckily as he was making his way to Jyon’s residence, he didn’t see any dead bodies. There are of course some attendants and people that are running rampant in different directions, but there are no deadbodies and no signs of battles which is good news.
But this changed when he reached the residence itself.
His face paled as he looked at the guard lying dead at the entrance.
He ran in while spectre extracted the memories from the guard. There are many more bodies of maids and attendants and he became angrier as he moved forward.
“NOOOO….”
All of a sudden he heard a scream from deep inside the residence and ran there.
Inside Jyon’s practice room which is as large as a battle arena, all the kids are currently struggling as a middle-aged woman is dragging one of the girls out of the group. A young man with a lecherous smile stood there as he looked at all the kids with hungry eyes.
It didn’t take long for Sam to recognize who the woman was. It is none other than Mingiv’s mother.
He doesn’t know where she came from, but he knows for sure that her presence here is not some sheer coincidence. This is revenge.
Sam’s body surged with spiritual energy and he attracted the energy of the young man and the lady.
The lady herself is a bit startled. She is only at the peak stage of Astral Plane transcendence, the same level as Sam and even the young man is of that cultivation level.
There is no contest there. Sam is very confident that he would be able to deal with the situation easily.
When the lady saw Sam though, she didn’t realize this and smiled crazily.
“You are here. I thought you would be too much of a coward to come and I might have needed to record the whole thing and send it to you.
Since you are right here. It would be even better.
I will catch you and tie you up before making you watch all of these kids getting raped.
Aren’t these bastards the reason for my son’s death? I will make you go through the ultimate suffering.
Sam really didn’t care what she is saying.
He was about to step forward when the lady crushed a token.
Sam sensed something from behind and activated his energy shield covering himself completely.
Green smoke came out of the walls with a slight explosive sound. The poisonous gas came at Sam with full force that he even felt the pressure of it.
The smoke didn’t last long though. It disappeared as fast as it came and Sam stood there with the energy barrier.
But his reaction was not fast enough as some gas managed to get in.
He inhaled it involuntarily.
“The poison concocted with a thousand different herbs. I heard that you are skilled in medicine. I would like to see how you will save yourself from this and if you are focused on saving yourself, who will save these kids?”
*Cough* *Cough*
Sam coughed as he felt the burning sensation inside his lungs.
He could feel the poison getting into his blood. He took out the injector and just injected himself with it.
But when he was busy with that, the young man went to the kids while the lady came to Sam and started attacking him.
Sam created an energy barrier as he injected himself with one vial after another. The poison is indeed too diverse for him to directly cure it. The common anti-venom he has is working, but it is not fast enough.
He only felt a bit relieved after he injected himself with four vials. But even then, he managed to hold the barrier.
He didn’t even flinch once and finally when he felt clear enough from the poison, he just deactivated the barrier and let her fists come.
He caught the fist that came at his face. The energy exploded at the point of contact and the fist exploded along with it.
“AHHHH…”
“It seems like you didn’t know enough of me.”
“Sam said as he caught hold of the stump at the hand and kicked her in the ribs from the side, breaking them in the process.
She started bleeding from her abdominal cavity and was about to fall on the floor. But even before that, another kick came in and landed on the same spot and this time, his foot went directly into the rib cage through the flesh and bone.
The lady died and fell on the floor.
The young man who was trying to force himself on the kids was stumped.
Specter went to the old lady to get the information while Sam walked forward to the young man.
“I.. I didn’t want to do this. She forced me.”
The young man sensed the killing intent and spoke with a stutter.
“I will find out after you are dead.. So, don’t bother explaining yourself.”
