The man in the green took a deep breath and continued.
“Your core elder Saran and his wife had quadruplets on the day the four lightning bolts stuck in your clan on that hill.
That very day, the Divine league received a message from some of the gods. The lightning is actually the work of some gods. They paid a huge price to act in your realm and made those lightning strike at that exact moment and location.
Those four kids supposedly have some kind of special bodily constitution and that could help for the gods in the future.
So, they are to be stolen from your clan and brought to the divine league to be brought up there.
We know that this plan is not going to be smooth, we made every calculation from the past three months, particularly when Gail, Gamin and Yuvana are here, things wouldn’t go as we planned no matter how perfectly we plan it.
Then came across Kriyon. The grand elder brought the news from his sect that even their sect leader knew of this matter in form of a prophecy.
We waited for him to make his own plan while getting fed with the info in real-time while we made a plan of our own.
Now, if my guess is right. Most of your grand elders would be dead and even the people that went to the tournament would be dead.
Your clan is on brink of extermination in one single day and the kids will be stolen away from you and brought back to the divine league where they would be brought up by a special group of people the gods choose.
The divine league would be the one entity that grooms the pioneers of a new era that would come because of those…”
*STAB*
The clan’s leader didn’t let him finish and stabbed him in the throat. But as soon as he was done, he couldn’t stand anymore and fell to the ground. He only stopped from crashing with his sword as he stabbed it into the ground and supported himself.
*Cough* *Cough*
He started coughing blood profusely.
The battle might have been his victory, but he couldn’t feel like it because of the damage he took in exchange for killing the other party.
After all, it was not some nobody, he is the leading member of the Divine league for fuck’s sake.
The clan’s leader looked around as he noticed that most of his elders are dying and losing. They couldn’t hold on anymore.
Particularly, when the divine league members saw the current situation of the clan’s leader, they are trying harder and harder.
The clan’s leader gritted his teeth as he took out a pill bottle from his storage. He looked at the pill bottle with hesitation.
The bottle looked it was made of extremely thin translucent glass and it is the shape of a droplet. It looked like a blood drop with its intense red colour and there is one pill in it.
One of the loyal subordinates of the clan’s leader who just killed a member of the divine league and came towards him.
“Sir, please don’t take that pill. We can deal with this situation. Please don’t worry.”
“No, there are too many enemies in the clan. Even if we managed to save ourselves here, the situation wouldn’t be the same. All of our formations are gone with the Rebo and his subordinates’ self-destruction.
I need to do this.”
The subordinate didn’t reply for a moment as he turned around and started attacking the divine league members that are coming at them.
He used all of his strength as he killed them one by one.
He took a small break when the flow stopped and spoke to the leader again.
“We have the upper hand within this area. Even if some elders died, we successfully defended ourselves. After we recover a bit, I will send the squad to look through the clan and rescue anyone that is alive including the kids.
I believe Saran would be holding the ground until then, so we will rescue them and leave. We can make a come back even if we lose now.”
“No, I need to do this. We cannot let the clan ground go like that. It is my responsibility as the clan’s leader.”
As he spoke the clan’s leader stood up forcefully and stabbed to the side, killing another divine league member.
The subordinate gritted his teeth with his fist tightened.
“I cannot let you do that. It is my responsibility as your protector.” With that, he suddenly made a move forward and hit the clan leader on the back of his neck.
The clan leader who didn’t expect this suddenly fell unconscious. The subordinate looked at the rest of his team members and yelled.
“Finish everyone here. Right now. Remove all the limiters placed on you. We are exterminating everyone that intruded on the clan today and saving everyone. Try your best with your lives on the line to hold the clan ground.”
As soon as he spoke, all the subordinates of the elite team broke a bracelet placed on their wrists and their strengths rapidly soared.
Most of them are at Middle-stage consummate cultivation and a few in late-stage, but their strengths reached the extreme they could have in that cultivation level and their opponents started falling one after another.
Meanwhile, at Saran’s place.
Saran had an extremely angry expression on his face as he looked at the people that surrounded his estate’s entrance.
He is fuming mad as he looked at the mean in the lead.
“I am Kriyon, maybe you have heard of me. I am a grand elder of the Stay eye sect. I came here to take your children away and to kill you and your wife.
So, if you cooperate, things would be easier.”
Saran looked at Kriyon. The man looked lean and tall. Even his arms appeared a bit unnaturally long. But there is some hidden handsomeness in all of his unnatural body.
“You are a Naga aren’t you?” Saran asked calmly.
“You are right. I am a Naga. The only Naga to ever come this far in the past few centuries. I am doing well aren’t I?”
“Here I was wondering, why you were called a snake.
Anyway, I don’t give a fuck why you guys are here. But since you came to my home and threatened me, none of you is returning alive.”
“But it is impossible though. I am a peak stage consummate stage cultivator. There is no way, you would be able to take me down with your level. And just in case, I even went as far as bringing a couple of late-stage cultivators and a few more middle-stage cultivators.
In fact, I was even thinking I don’t have to make a move at all.
You are just a late-stage cultivator after all.”
“Well, you are not the only person that can create some surprises.”
Saran spoke as he broke a bracelet that was similar to the ones on the hands of Clan’s leader’s elite team.
His aura changed. His cultivation level is clearly not Late stage. He is also a peak stage cultivator just like Kriyon.
“A limiter bracelet? Gaja clan is still as sneaky as ever, isn’t it? Hiding your powers like this. Just how many peak stage consummate cultivators do you guys have? Even going as far as using these limiter bracelets.
I am pretty sure that the Divine league’s Monitoring squad would be pissed because of this.”
“Since the Divine league itself has attacked the organization first, do you think you guys have legs to stand up for yourself.”
“Of course, you would think so. But the thing is, we don’t need to worry about that. Because the rest of your clan is dying along with you. So, no one will ever find out the tale of what happened here.
We can also use these limiter bracelets as an excuse after we dealt with you.”
As soon as Kriyon was done, he made a move.
Saran also made his move and the clash started.
While things are getting chaotic everywhere the Gaja clan members are present, back at Giyon’s residence, she is having a bit of a hard time.
Not just because of the enemies though, but because of an ally too.
“Why do you need me to get into the divine dimension fragment as well?” Sam asked with a frown.
“Because you are going to get in the way. I tried contacting every department and elder that I have any prior communication with. But none of them is picking up. The only place holding up is the enforcement department and Senior Elder Ma is dealing with opponents of higher level with the special formations he placed there.
It seems like he was not comfortable with connecting the formations there to the entire network of the clan’s formations. But at least he is holding up.
I will send you there first. I believe that it is impossible for you to leave through the front gate. So, after I drop you off with Senior Elder Ma, I can fight without constraints.”
Sam went into deep thought and felt that made sense.
He might be resourceful, but that doesn’t mean he is completely invincible. In the current situation, he is not prepared. So, decided to go on with the plan.
But then came one enemy, who completely ruined Giyon’s plan.
