NOVEL WEB Chapter 171: An ability
A masked man appeared in front of the barren land and his gaze went in a particular direction. He remained standing there for a moment and moved his head upside down and the next instant he jumped towards that direction and descended in front of a cave. He crossed a kilometer's distance instant in a single jump.
"Master must be pissed off after knowing that his elder son is no more. He may have been weak and trash, but he was still the son of my master…but why am I not feeling any remorse about his death? Well, he did a good job using that void detonator, but what is wrong with those people?
Especially that old man who appeared at that time, and a strange powerful entity which was keeping an eye on that young man…I am glad I left that place, otherwise who knows what would have happened to me? But how am I supposed to give the news?" that masked man mumbled as he was standing in front of the cave, but after thinking for a few more moments, he decided to enter the cave.
And some time later, he finally reached the end of the cave where an old man was sitting in the lotus position and a few red crystals could be seen laid on the ground. He was gathering the Qi from those crystals.
"What happened, Wulong, why are you here? I am expecting some bad news from you. Tell me what happened to make you come here at a time like this." The old man opened his red fiery eyes as he looked towards the masked man. Upon hearing his name, that masked man removed his mask and fell on his knees. That man named Wulong was missing both his eyes and his face was burned and creepy.
"Master, elder master Nicholas is no more, he died on the battlefield. I am here to deliver the bad news." Wulong looked towards the old man with those sockets and gave him the news about his elder son.
Upon hearing the news of his son's demise, that old man became furious for a moment, which made that masked man Wulong tremble in fear. He gulped, seeing his master, but he remained calm in front of this old man.
"Who killed him? There is no way that the Hundred Poison valley sector has the capability to kill him. He died even after Hansa and Mansa accompanied him on the battlefield along with that large army. Which expert killed him?" the old man asked as he looked at Wulong.
Wulong took a deep breath as he heard the old man who was burning with rage, but he was somehow controlling his rage.
"Young master Yohan from the Lin clan. He is the man who confronted lord Nicholas and killed him. I was there when he killed lord Nicholas," Wulong responded to the old man.
Upon hearing the name of Yohan, that old man couldn't control his anger as he appeared in front of Wulong in an instant and grabbed his neck and lifted him into the air.
"You are telling me a trash killed my son. Do you think I am in the mood to hear your jokes, you bastard?" that old man roared at the top of his lungs and in that instant the whole area became uninhabitable as millions of birds left the trees and they were all over that cave and chirping loudly. The aura became chilly the moment he lost his control.
His eyes turned dark as he looked towards Wulong with killing intent.
"Master, I am telling the truth. That guy is no trash. The Lin clan hides his true identity and used him against lord Nicholas. Those people sent by the royals were also present there to stop that man from killing lord Nicholas, but some unknown old man butted in and that guy killed lord Nicholas without as much as a second thought. It was brutal. He killed lord Nicholas in a very painful way.
He died in unbearable pain. The moment he pierced that unknown sword into his heart, his skin started melting and leaving his whole body. That was a horrible sight to watch." Wulong started mumbling those words as he was looking towards the old man with those missing eyes.
Hearing those words, the old man let go of him and started laughing maniacally. He was laughing as hard as he could. Seeing this old man laughing, Wulong remained expressionless.
"Ahh, haha, that bastard Su Wan Lin got me! Who would have thought he was hiding his only grandson that way and raising him silently over the years? He literally got me there, what a shameless bastard, and he claimed to be my rival! Cheeky bastard!" that old man said, tightening his fist.
Blood could be seen dripping from his hand, but the moment it touched the ground, it started evaporating while leaving a mark on the ground.
Seeing this, Wulong gulped and the next moment he put his mask back.
"But before dying by his hand, lord Nicholas trapped him inside the void, and there is no way he is going to leave this place. After all, he doesn't have the qualifications to destroy the space of that void. He doesn't know anything about the void. I am sure about it. He was confused when the void started sucking him inside," Wulong said as he looked at the old man.
Hearing those words, a punch landed on Wulong's face.
"I will kill him by myself, and you are saying he got sucked in by that void detonator? He needs to come back alive from that place. I hope he will find a way to leave that void so I can kill him with my hands. He needs to pay for killing my son. I just need a few more days of time, and then no one is going to stop me, not even those warlords.
I will no longer abide by those ground rules," the old man said as he grinned.
Meanwhile…
Diya raised her right hand towards the sky and she closed her eyes. After taking a deep breath she started focusing the aura around her surroundings. Alena was looking at this with wide open eyes as she felt a chilly aura around her spine. Two old men also appeared in the sky and they looked towards Diya. Both of them looked at her and their gazes went to their surroundings.
The weather around the city started changing drastically and the whole city started to become covered with dark clouds. The people of the River Shore city started feeling this change and they started coming out of their homes and started looking at the sky. Everyone was confused after seeing the sudden change in their surroundings.
