Chapter 385: 200
Logan pondered and concluded that there were only two powers in the whole territory that could do so. The first one would be the Lord, but the Lord was the king of the territory and wouldn’t do such a low-quality act. Therefore, Logan’s first suspicion fell upon Gali Mo; could this group of people come from their family?
If it were really Gali Mo, there must be a reason for them to mobilize their forces like this. Could it be to eliminate all remaining forces related to the annihilation and the Grand Elder? Were the ones chased down their disciples?
To verify his guess, Logan asked aloud, “Are you ten-odd people from the First Family? Subordinates of Gali Mo?”
At this question, the ten-odd people, who were preparing to take action, hesitated for a moment but didn’t answer Logan’s meaning. Instead, they gave Logan a vicious look, meaning he best not meddle in their affairs.
But this also made Logan understand that his guess seemed correct, these ten-odd people were indeed from the First Family. After joining forces with the Lord, the whole territory had been cleansed in blood.
“Ba Ke Yun, you’d better surrender obediently. You’re already on the wanted list. how far can you run? Since you once enjoyed the blessings of the Grand Elder, you have to bear the consequences today.”
The man at the forefront sneered coldly. He had the highest realm among the ten-odd people and had already reached a consummate throne realm. The remaining forces of the Grand Elder were too cunning, and they had already lost many people. Therefore, they couldn’t give their enemies any chance to breathe, or else it would increase their own losses.
And the person being hunted clenched his fists and said unwillingly, “What did I do wrong? I have no feud with your First Family. Am I supposed to be eliminated just because I am the Grand Elder’s relative? I’m a poor relative who the Grand Elder never acknowledged. On the contrary, I’ve been bullied by him a lot.”
Ba Ke Yun felt helpless and angry. In fact, he had grudges against the Grand Elder. Although they were relatives, years ago, the Grand Elder had driven his parents out of the house, which led to their death from freezing on the streets. Therefore, there was no family affection between him and the Grand Elder.
He had been practicing bitterly for years, and finally reached a high-ranking Overstep, hoping one day to become strong enough to stand in front of the Grand Elder and demand justice for his parents. But now, the Grand Elder suddenly died, and this news made Ba Ke Yun happy for a while.
Because Ba Ke Yun knew very well that the Grand Elder had already reached the Dominating Realm, and even if he practiced hard for a lifetime, he would probably never reach that level. Now that someone had killed the Grand Elder, he considered his revenge complete. However, he only got to be happy for one day before he was inexplicably hunted down.
The so-called reason was even more ridiculous, simply because he was a relative of the Grand Elder. No matter how he explained that he had not enjoyed any benefits from the Grand Elder, it was of no use. They had already identified him as a potential threat, fearing revenge for the Grand Elder.
In just half a month, Gali Mo had fought off more than ten waves of assassins. Now he was covered in scars, and the First Family had sent even more people of the throne realm. He was merely a High-ranking Overstep, and the gap in strength left him mentally and physically exhausted.
He was reluctant to die so unclearly, especially being regarded as a trusted aide of the Grand Elder. He had never enjoyed the Grand Elder’s protection when he was alive, so why should he die because of the Grand Elder?
“Kid, whether you’re an enemy or not to the Grand Elder, it’s a fact that you were once related. We can’t stake our entire family on this, just in case you bring a group of people back for revenge in the future?”
The leader shook his head; the family master had repeatedly said that it’s better to kill wrongly a thousand than to let one pass. They must completely wipe out the remnants of the Grand Elder to prevent future trouble.
Ba Ke Yun laughed, his smile filled with sorrow, “Fine, I only have a dying breath left, but I will fight to the end. Even if I can only take one of you with me, it will be worth it, right?”
“A mere High-ranking Overstep, you dare to boast in front of us like this? Who among us can you take with you? Each of us is in the throne realm, you won’t reach our level even in another ten years.”
Their opponents laughed scornfully, mixed with a trace of disdain. Ba Ke Yun didn’t bother to refute, as he had faced waves of hunting in the past ten days and had already killed five or six high-ranking Oversteps, seven or eight low-ranking ones, and dozens of mythical ranks that had died in his hands.
One of them stepped forward and took out his Dharma device: “I’ll do it. I’ll take this head, and you guys can watch the show beside me. I’ll have a good time playing with this kid.”
He was determined to kill Ba Ke Yun, but not with a swift end. Instead, he wanted to toy with him like a cat catching a mouse, allowing Ba Ke Yun to only have his last breath, and then end him in the most desperate state.
With just one move, the supreme divine power contained within left Ba Ke Yun gasping for breath and flying out. His body appeared to be falling apart, and only his consciousness had not gone into shock.
At this time, Logan, who hadn’t left, approached, “I say, there’s no need to kill him. I quite value his character and courage, especially his fearlessness in facing a group of people in throne realm like you, even being able to generate a fighting spirit. Such talent is rare.”
“How about you give me some face and spare Ba Ke Yun? I can guarantee that he won’t seek revenge for the Grand Elder in the future. I actually want to take him as a follower lately. You just go back and report it directly to Gali Mo, and I’m sure he won’t mind too much.”
What Logan said caused the ten-odd people to pause in confusion, as if Logan had some significant background, but their probing shook their heads because Logan was just an Overstep after all. How could someone at that level dare to challenge those of throne realm? Either he had intelligence issues or was courting death.
“With just you, an Overstep, you think you’re qualified to meet our family master?” One of them couldn’t help wanting to attack Logan, but Logan fought back with just a look. His fierce expression frightened the attacker, and a wave of fighting spirit erupted from Logan’s body, making the ten-odd people in the throne realm feel like they were facing a formidable enemy.
Everyone was puzzled; when did the deterrent power of an Overstep become so strong? They had killed dozens if not hundreds of Oversteps in their hands, but this was the first time they had been intimidated by one. Moreover, Logan did not seem to be pretending to be mysterious; after all, this kind of aura and divine power could not be faked.
But they couldn’t yield, as they had orders: “You’re just one person, and we have more than a dozen in the throne realm, all experienced in battle. With your formidable strength, are you sure you can take on all of us alone?”
