Chapter 2415


    “Hah! To be smart enough to tell who I am so quickly… You truly are Ryder’s descendants…” said


    Saint Darkwind as heughed out loud.


    “S-Saint Darkwind”? The legendary person who had his life’s story engraved on several historical


    monuments…?!” eximed the seven Morningstars as their jaws dropped. After all, Saint Darkwind


    was well known to be a prodigy cultivator who was able to enter the cultivation realm at only the age of


    twenty five!


    Nobody knew how old he currently was, nor could anyone guess what his cultivation level was


    anymore.


    Whatever the case was, none of them could’ve ever guessed that they would be able to meet him in


    person. As for the three elders, since they knew that he was already a great person way before their


    great grandfather had been, they were prompted to respectfully ask, “You’ve… heard of us, Saint


    Darkwind…?”


    “I learned about the three of you from your great-grandfather. Speaking of Ryder, I remember how


    shocked that arrogant man had been when he was easily defeated by that boy!” replied Saint Darkwind


    with another mightyugh.


    “W-what?! Great-grandfather was defeated…?! By whom?!” asked the trio as they gulped while


    exchanging nces among themselves.


    “The person you’re about to look for, of course!” scoffed Saint Darkwind.


    “G-Gerald defeated him…?! He’s that strong?!” eximed the dumbfounded elders. They, for one,


    knew for a fact that someone like Saint Darkwind wouldn’t joke about something like this.


    As the seven kneeling Morningstars quivered even more, Saint Darkwind took the chance to add,


    “Indeed. Honestly, I find it hrious that you people actually dared to send him a challenge letter! That


    aside, since I’m technically saving your lives now, I wonder how Ryder’s going to thank me the next


    time he sees me!”


    Wiping their nervous foreheads, the elders who now realized that they had severely overestimated


    themselves then asked, “Um… How did youe to learn of all this…?”


    “Hmm? As I said, I ran into your great-grandfather while I was cultivating in a valley. At the time, the old


    man was seriously injured, so in exchange for his life, he informed me all about Gerald! Just so you


    know, Ryder even had to use the splitting technique during that battle, though if he hadn’t, Gerald’s


    immensely powerful aurade would’ve definitely ended him there and then! Regardless, had it not


    been for my help, your great-grandfather would be dead by now!” exined Saint Darkwind who was


    telling theplete truth.


    Truth be told, Saint Darkwind and Ryder had been rivals for the longest time. Though Saint Darkwind


    was first to attain fame, the current Ryder through his talent and intelligence had already gotten to the


    same level that he had. With that in mind, even after fighting each other over a thousand times, the duo


    still couldn’t determine the winner.


    That aside, Saint Darkwind knew for a fact that Ryder was only able to grow this strong due to the


    secrets of Fyre Cave. In fact, he had followed Ryder into the cave about a year ago, and they had


    battled by the Red River.


    Unfortunately, nearing the end of the battle, Ryder had tricked him into touching the river! Had he not


    forced the water out using the diffusion method, Ryder would’ve surely imed his life that day…


    Regardless, it was right after that incident when he headed to a valley to cultivate. This ultimately


    allowed him to bump into the injured Ryder who had gone there to hide. Quite honestly, had Ryder not


    told him this secret in exchange for his life, Saint Darkwind would’ve surely killed him right there and


    then!


    Either way, when Saint Darkwind heard that Gerald had returned to Weston, he immediately came over


    to search for the boy. On his way, he came across three of Ryder’s descendants, so he followed them


    around for a bit, which allowed him to learn about all this.


    “If Gerald’s that strong, then what are we to do about the challenge..?” whimpered the three elders who


    were now rightfully nervous.


    “It won’t be easy to take on that boy. I have a n, but I need you three to cooperate with me!” replied


    Saint Darkwind.


    “We’d be honored to!”


    “Well said. Essentially, I’m nning to set up a formationter that you three will need to lure him into


    during the battle. I’ll be counting on you to sessfullyplete this task! ” dered Saint Darkwind in


    a frigid tone.

    “Understood, Senior! With your help, we’re sure to beat him! Though, I do wonder what formation you’ll


    be using…?”
