Chapter 874


    Kate’s expression turnedplex, and her voice lowered. “Granduncle’s strength kept growing, and so


    did his ambition.


    “There were almost no more individuals who could contend with him one–to–one, so he began to think


    of…immortality!”


    Immortality!


    Even Andrius‘ eyes twitched slightly at that word.


    Throughout history, countless powerful individuals have been obsessed with the idea of immortality.


    However, immortality broke thews of nature, so it was far from easy.


    Despite that, the Kleins head strove for that ambition. It seemed quite far–fetched.


    “It’s said that the treasure protected by the Kleins could grant immortality.” Kate adjusted her mood and


    continued, “Thus, Granduncle set his sights on this treasure that had been passed on for countless


    years.


    “The Kleins have a long–standing tradition. They are the guardians of the treasure and are responsible


    for making sure it doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. Stealing it themselves is out of the question.


    “However, Granduncle was obsessed with immortality and disregarded everything. He knew that


    Grandfather wouldn’t agree to search for the treasure, so he ordered his trusted subordinates to do it


    secretly, so they weren’t discovered.

    “However, there is no such thing as a secret that can be kept forever.”


    Kate sighed. “Before long, Grandfather discovered what Granduncle did, which led to their falling out.


    As a result, Grandfather left the Kleins with a group of followers and established our own force on


    Mount Cura–the Medicine Sect.”


    Andrius‘ frown deepened.


    ording to Kate’s words, what Wade said yesterday seemed mostly urate.


    “What about the four great families?” Andrius continued to ask, “What was their role in all of this?”


    “The four great families…” Kate smiled coldly. “They’re cunning and deceitful. They imed to establish


    a set of rules for self–preservation, but in reality, everything revolved around the Kleins.


    “At first, they wanted to attack Granduncle when he found the treasure and seize the


    opportunity to annihte the Kleins while getting their hands on the treasure. It was a win- win situation


    for them.


    “However, they feared that they would not be able to deal with Granduncle once he found the treasure


    and achieved great power, so theyunched a hasty attack


    “After all, the Klein family’s treasure was renowned. They could not afford to gamble,”


    Andrius fell silent.


    It seemed that what Wade and the emperor said were both true.


    However, the emperorcked some details that the Medicine Sect had.


    “Back then…” Kate sighed and continued, “After the four families annihted the Kleins, they remained


    on high alert. The Kleins were a dominant force in the martial arts world, and the sudden fall of such a


    family seemed somewhat unreal.


    “Other than the four families, even my grandfather suspected that there might be a surviving member of


    the Kleins.


    “Thus, they devised numerous ns and made a series of actions, and finally went as far as releasing


    the corpses of the Kleins members to lure you out.”


    Saying this, Kate could not help but nce at Andrius. Her clear and bright eyes glimmered.


    Andrius Moonshade…


    He was her distant cousin after all, and they shared the same Klein bloodline.


    However, his family was destroyed, and he was plunged into various conspiracies and schemes.


    She sympathized with him deeply and sighed.


    Then, she shook her head and said, “Although the Kleins are suspected of trying to steal their treasure,


    that’s something that happened within the family. Now, the family has been annihted, and you…”


    At that point, she let out a long sigh and did not continue.


    Andrius had been observing Kate. Her every word and action seemed sincere and heartfelt. She


    should be trustworthy.


    Furthermore, as a member of the Medicine Sect, she likely had substantial knowledge of medicine and


    acupuncture. She was the best person to administer acupuncture to him to treat him.


    Thus, he said to her, “Kate, I can find the Klein family’s treasure, not only for my sake but to help the


    Medicine Sect out of this predicament. Go and tell your grandfather.”


    “Great!” Kate quickly agreed and went to find Wade.


    Not long after that, Wade and Kate came back.


    Wade’s expression was very cold, but it was much better than before. He said faintly, “


    Andrius, have you decided to search for the Klein family’s treasure?”


    “Yes.” Andrius looked at Wade and said bluntly, “However, before I set out on this journey, I have one


    condition!


    “As long as you meet this condition, I have no objections.”
