Chapter 493: Royal Family
“Brother, but why is our sect master trying to stop us and doesn’t want Edmond to die?” The second Elder, Oldins asked with a confused look on his face.
“Sigh…I wish I could say it to you; however, I can’t because that damn sect leader made me swear on my spirit consciousness by some mysterious method. If I say it, my spirit consciousness will be immediately shattered,” The first elder of the fire sword sect, Kieran bitterly shook his head as he explained the reason why he was unable to say that truth.
“Looks like it is more complex than I thought,” Oldins nodded his head and continued, “Okay then, don’t say it, brother.”
“By the way, how are our disciples’ training going on? Are they ready for the Champions contest?”
Soon after that, Kieran asked about their disciples.
“Yes, they are training very hard with all the resources of the fire sword sect and moreover, they even started challenging the second level of our battle tower,”
When explaining about their disciples, Nedhor and Vadel, the second elder became excited and he continued explaining, “If my guess is right, they might break through into the general realm by the time the champion’s contest is started.”
“Good,” The first elder nodded his head with a satisfied look on his face.
“Thanks, brother Oldins. You take care of Nedhor as your own disciple. So, I never worried about his cultivation progress when you are looking after them,” The first elder thanked the second brother by calling brother.
Both of them were blood brothers and they always wanted to take control of the fire sword sect; however, they could not defeat the current set leader as he was way more powerful than they were. So, they never messed with the sect leader.
However, recently for the past few years, their sect leader mostly secluded himself in his cultivation chamber and never came out except for some important matters.
“No need to thank me, brother,” the second elder shook his head before saying in a low voice, “Brother, do you still think we have a chance in talking over this fire sword sect?”
“If not for Edmond, we would have already gained complete control over the fire sword sect,” Thinking about the past, the first elder’s face had completely filled with hatred towards Edmond.
“However, we still have a chance but I am just waiting for a moment. When it comes, we will sit on the sect leader’s seat and order the fire sword sect as our own,”
Nevertheless, he controlled his emotions and with a hideous smile on his face, the first elder replied to his brother.
“I have confidence in you brother. If you have anything you want me to do, please don’t hesitate,” The second elder encouraged his brother and showed that he would always help him.
“I know you will help me, brother,” the first elder patted his brother on the shoulder and continued saying, “And we will both enter into the king realm together.”
“Yes, first elder or should I call you future sect leader?” The second elder laughed before taking his leave.
“I hope everything goes as we planned, brother,” After that, the first elder also returned to his cultivation chamber.
Just like what had happened in the fire sword sect and the assassin sect, a similar meeting had occurred in the combat king sect and other five great families.
However, something different was discussed in the meeting that was held in the Royal family.
“Your majesty, according to the information we got, the top three sects and the five great families decided not to send their reinforcements to aid the mercenaries to fight against the demon army,” The trusted commander of the Draton kingdom’s army informed about the information he got to the King while kneeling on a single leg.
“What? Are you sure about the information?” The King of the Zrochester province, Stephen king stood up from his throne with a shocked expression on his face and hurriedly asked about the surety of the information.
“Yes, your majesty. The information is 100 percent true. What’s more, they even openly dared to communicate about their actions with one another,” Commander Reid nodded his head and explained that all sects were doing this on a purpose.
“Damn these sects and families. They are definitely doing this on purpose. Once we lost the trust of the mercenary guild, then we have to do many things for ourselves,” Stephen Draton’s face became angry after hearing the words of his commander.
‘I should not have closed my eyes when they acted against the hidden families. I think the hidden families are far better than these so-called fame-seeking sects and great families,’ Stephen king looked as though he was regretting some of his past actions and bitterly shook his head.
“What happened your majesty. Are you regretting now about the incident that happened a few years ago?”
Beside King Stephen, there was an old man with a long beard and golden robe. He chuckled when he saw the regret on the King’s face and asked him.
“Old man, I am already very angry. Don’t make me even more than angry,”
Looking at the mocking expression on the old man’s face, Stephen Draton warned the old man.
“I already asked your majesty to do something when the top sects and the great families did their dirty deeds against the hidden families. But, what did you do? Just watched and let the ten hidden families that would not hesitate to give their life for the sake of the human race, to die,” However, the old man didn’t have a shred of fear when he saw the King and recalled the past events.
“Old man, that’s enough. You can go back to your cultivation chamber and rest now,” Stephen king ordered the old man to leave him and go back to his cultivation chamber.
“I know that facts will always be salty; However, only when you accept them, you can become successful. Otherwise, you will be remembered as another foolish king in history,” After saying his words the old man left the room and went back to his cultivation chamber.
“Your majesty?”
Commander Reid became shocked after hearing the words of the old man, who was known as the cleverest person in the entire kingdom.
“Don’t take that old man’s words seriously. Lately he has gone insane and talking some non-sense,” Except for the old man and few other royal family’s old cultivators, no one knows about what the royal family had done to the hidden families. So, King Stephen said that the old man was just talking some non-sense.
“Yes, your majesty. I understood,” Commander Ried nodded his head as though he understood something that he had never imagined about the royal family.
However, he knew what the royal family was capable of and to what extent they would go to protect their secrets. So, he acted nonchalantly.
However, inside his heart, all the loyalty he had towards the royal family was completely shattered.
“Yes, you better understand it; otherwise, you know what will happen, right?” Stephen Draton’s voice became serious all of a sudden that made the Commander Reid shiver.
