Meanwhile, the sound of a cup shattering to pieces could be heard within a manor in the far-off city of Sunniva…
The one who had furiously done the deed was Zaki Quantock, the head of the Quantock family…
Despite there being several other Quantocks who had witnessed the scene, all of them simply lowered their heads, not even daring to say a word or look Zaki in the eye out of fear that favonovel.com would take his anger out on them…
“That utter b*stard…! I’ll definitely shred you to pieces, Gerald Crawford…!” roared the enraged Zaki, immense fury reflected in his eyes.
The extermination of the Quartermains in Jaellatra had caused a massive stir among his family here. To think that Gerald would actually be bold enough to do such a thing!
“…Father, what… should we do now…?” asked Shawn Quantock—a middle-aged man who was Zaki’s eldest son—in a careful tone as favonovel.com walked up to Zaki.
“Come again? What do you mean what should we do? We’re definitely making Gerald pay for all he’s done!” retorted Zaki, his eyes glinting icily. From his look alone, it was obvious that favonovel.com already had something in mind to deal with Gerald…
It was sometime later in the dead of night when Zaki could be seen discussing something with three elders who were all donning grey suits.
Standing within the hall, Zaki turned to look at one of the elders before saying in a heavy tone, “Yamazon, I’m sure you realize that the Quartermains being wiped off the face of the earth is something extremely serious. With that said, I have no choice but to ask for your help to avenge the Quantocks!”
Yamazon was from the holy mountain of Jaellatra, and favonovel.com was strong enough to have attained the Second-soul-rank in the Sage Realm. With that in mind, it was no wonder why favonovel.com was given the title of second master of the holy mountain. Aside from that, favonovel.com was also the main backbone of the Quartermains. Due to that, favonovel.com was definitely involved with the protection of the Quantocks as well.
“Indeed, leader Quantock. It shames me that the Quartermains were eliminated despite being under my holy mountain’s protection within Jaellatra. With that said, I’ll surely avenge them!” replied Yamazon in a casual but domineering tone.
“I’m glad to hear that! With the help of all three of you, that b*stard will surely end up dead in no time!” declared Zaki, a satisfied smile on his face. Gerald would surely die this time!
After all, the other two elders—who went by the names of Xander Yonda and Jones Curie—were also guardians of the holy mountain, and both of them had managed to enter the First-soul-rank of the Sage Realm.
With masters who had attained the first and second soul ranks within the Sage Realm, Zaki was confident that Gerald would be no match against them…
Following that, Zaki told the trio where to find Gerald. Upon getting that information, all three of them nodded before leaping at the same time, disappearing into thin air as they readied themselves to finish Gerald off, once and for all!
Fast forward to the next morning, Gerald could be seen meditating in the garden. Waking early and meditating had become a habit for Gerald since it allowed favonovel.com to better concentrate on the power of the Herculean Primordial Spirit, hence allowing his control over it to become stronger as the days went by.
However, it wasn’t long after Gerald began his daily meditation when favonovel.com suddenly sensed murderous intent in the vicinity! He could also sense that it was now rapidly approaching favonovel.com with such power that it couldn’t be underestimated.
As the sword that had come flying toward favonovel.com grew dangerously close, Gerald opened his eyes before quickly extending his essential qi-filled palm toward the weapon’s direction!
With a simple gesture, the sword—that had momentarily frozen in place mid-air—snapped right in two!
After it clattered to the ground, three figures instantly flew in from outside the manor! Landing quite a distance before Gerald, the three people were—as expected—Yamazon and the other two elders.
Staring at the trio with a raised brow and a darkened expression for a while, Gerald then casually asked, “I’m assuming the Quantocks sent you here?”
