Chapter 1048


    The restricted area was the core of the Medicine Sect. Even direct disciples could not enter without the


    sect master’s permission, let alone an outsider.


    However…


    Someone managed to enter right under the guardian’s nose and even deceive him. That person was


    incredibly powerful and secretive. If they harbored ill intentions toward the Medicine Sect, they could


    be a significant threat.


    Eli immediately ordered, “Wade, all of you,e with me to investigate the restricted area and find out


    who the intruder is.”


    “Yes, sir!”


    The group hurriedly made their way to the restricted area.


    Noir and the other Lycan Manor experts were brought to the main hall to wait while the experts from the


    Dragon Manor left.


    However, even after they rushed to the restricted area to search, they did not find anything. The ce


    was already empty with no traces left behind.


    The group looked at each other.


    Wade pondered and asked, “Andrius, do you remember the person who taught you the spear? What


    did he


    look like? Were there any distinguishing features?”


    Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    “He…” Andrius recalled and said, “He had a white beard and hair, was extremely spirited, and had a


    strong


    and resonant voice. He also had arge nose and was jug–eared. He was kind–hearted and


    straightforward, without beating around the bush.”


    Andrius gave a detailed description.


    “That’s not all.” From the side, Kate added, “He also had a profound understanding of the Medicine


    Sect’s


    ultimate technique, the Burden of Nine Skies. He also advocated for the idea of using a heavy spear


    instead of a light spear and emphasizing momentum over technique.”


    Kate had not gone into the restricted area herself, but Andrius had told her this privately


    “Using a heavy spear instead of a light spear…” Eli muttered, and his expression changed slightly.


    “Did you notice something?” Wade asked when he saw Eli’s unusual expression.


    Tobias, Kate, and the others also immediately turned to the guardian.


    Eli nced at them and said in a low voice, “Decades ago, there was someone who proposed the idea


    of


    exchanging light spears for heavy spears.”


    Decades ago!


    Wade and the others exchanged looks and asked curiously, “Who was it?”


    “Killian Klein!” Eli narrowed his eyes and enunciated syble by syble.


    Wade, Klein, Tobias, and the other elders turned pale at the name.


    Andrius frowned and asked, “Who’s Killian Klein?”


    “Your grandfather,” Wade replied dryly.


    This time, Andrius paled as well.


    Grandfather…


    His grandfather…


    He had never heard people mention his grandfather before, and this was the first time he learned his


    name.


    “But…” Wade looked at Eli, frowned, and shook his head firmly. “He died more than twenty years ago


    when he strayed off the path of cultivation and was attacked by the four family heads. How how could


    he still be alive to teach Andrius?”


    Wade shook his head, unwilling to believe it.
