Chapter 2396
“You couldn’t get near him. You’re telling me, that none of you were even able to get close to him
despite being extremely powerful fighters who can individually shake the world? Do you think I’m that
daft?!” growled the infuriated Jaxen as he raised his palm and mobilized his essential qi, fully ready to
kill!

“Wait, Patriarch!” eximed an old man who had silently been sitting at the side this entire time out of
the blue.
Watching as Jaxen then turned to face him with a raised brow, the elder stroked his beard before
adding, “After careful examination of Ian’s injuries, he seems to have been killed by an extremely
strong aura de. While it isn’t umon for people to learn how to form them, it’s extremely rare for
someone to be able to advance to this level!”
“I agree! With that said, they’re most probably telling the truth about Gerald’s ability being beyond
regr cultivators!” dered another elder.
“Then what should we do? I can’t just let things slide when Ian was killed like this! What more, I’m sure
Gerald will being for the rest of us soon!” retorted Jaxen.
“While it’s true that we’ve found ourselves in a tricky situation, if we rush in to deal with Gerald, there’s
a chance that we’ll likely die more tragically than Ian! With that said, I propose we find someone from
that side…” said the Grand Elder.
“That side…? Are you… Saying we should look for some one from the Thunder Sword Sect…?” asked
Jaxen in surprise.
“I am. After all, our family’s been building this huge economic structure under the orders of the Thunder
Sword Sect so that they could build bases for brewing spirit tincture. With that in mind, they should help
us now that our family’s in danger! Don’t think I’m overreacting either. From the severity of Ian’s
wounds, I have a feeling that Gerald may be even stronger than the disciples of that sect! He really isn’t
someone we can take lightly, and if we don’t get rid of him first, our heads will be off soon too!” replied
the elder with a frown.
After hearing all that, Jaxen calmed down a little. When he thought back about the guards’ descriptions
of Gerald’s attack, he couldn’t help but feel puzzled. After all, Jaxen had been practicing secret
techniques for ages, yet he had never even heard of the moves Gerald had used…
Pleased to see that Jaxen had quieted down, the Grand Elder then ced his hands against his back
before saying, “Well, I say that, but there’s no real hurry. After all, we still have Gerald’s disciple and
good friend with us. I propose that we release both of them, then issue a duel with Gerald that’ll take
ce on the day of your birthday banquet. Naturally, we’ll be inviting several experts from the Thunder
Sword Sect over to be his opponents! I’m sure Gerald won’t be able to take on all of them, no matter
how strong he is!”
“That sounds like an excellent idea! You heard the Grand Elder! Get in touch with the Thunder Sword
Sect. Also, let Leo and Aiden free. Once you’re done, send that boy a challenge letter and tell him to
meet us at Mountain Top, the banquet’s venue, in three days!” ordered Jaxen with a firm nod.
“Right away!” dered his subordinates as they immediately took action…
Meanwhile, on an ind far away from Jay City, three white haired elders donning in clothes, could
be seen sitting cross-legged and facing each other in a triangle formation. With their sword fingers
pinched together, they were clearly forming a sword formation.
As they were cultivating, a child suddenly came rushing toward them, though he remained silent when
he realized what they were doing. Noticing the child, one of the elders then asked, “What is it?”
“We’ve received news from the Morningstar family stating that they’re in trouble! They’re in such
danger that they immediately asked for the three of you toe to their rescue!”
“They what, now?” replied another old man as all three of them opened their eyes…
