Chapter 1083: Sect Visit 1

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Maybe it’s time to make a trip back.”

Garen recalled everything that had happened since he arrived in this world, and his deepest impressions still came from his time in the Blackboard Region.

Right now, the Scarlet Snow Sect existed in name only. The Elders were gone, the Guardian was missing, so the only ones left holding the Sect up were the Great Supervisor and the Three Hearted Disciples. But even so, the power of the Sect had not really been reduced, because of Carthage, because of Garen himself. But Carthage had not truly revealed his identity yet, so he was still a part of the Scarlet Snow Sect. As for Garen...

On the surface, he was just a Non-Falling Level Five, but in truth he had the Armor of Ice, and could reach Level Nine. But he had no idea about the Level Nine fighting style, and with just the power of a Level Nine fighter, he could not understand the corresponding knowledge.

Garen flew straight for the Courtroom.

Clang clang clang...

The heavy sound of the clock rang from the peak, spreading across the whole Scarlet Snow Sect headquarters, and many bolts of light quickly shot toward the hall at the peak of the Courtroom. Some of these lights were strong while others were subdued, and they instantly turned into figures of different heights once they entered the Courtroom, each landing quietly on their respective seats.

When Garen flew into the Basilica, most of the people had already gathered there, only a few were absent because they were either away or in seclusion.

Some of the Three Hearted Disciples looked impatient, these summonses had evidently interrupted something. Most of the Great Supervisors were quiet and thoughtful, betraying no emotion and taking no stances.

And then there was the headquarters’ Head Manager, a chubby middle-aged normal person whose gaze swept across the whole area as soon as he landed.

“The Elders aren’t here, Great Senior Brother isn’t here, so who has the right to sound the emergency summons bell?!” he asked gravely.

“It wasn’t the Elders?” One of the Great Supervisors grew confused. He was joined by a few others around him.

Even some of the Three Hearted Disciples began to frown. If it was not the Elders, who could it be? It could not have been the Guardian, the Lord Guardian would never make a direct order, circumventing the Elders. Could it be Great Senior Brother?

Eva stood in the number three position, her lips pursed and her expression cold. She did not really care who rang the bell, but since they had rung the emergency summons bell, that must mean something extremely serious must have happened.

Number Two, Alice, was still hidden in her white robes, her facial expression hidden, and giving off a similarly calm feeling.

Beneath her, Number Four, King Cat, was playing with his little white kitten, and seemed completely unconcerned with the meaning behind the summons.

The fifth position was empty, that used to be Rainy’s. The Sixth, Angola, was dressed in blood-red robes, his face expressionless and his thoughts unsurmisable.

Number seven was Mandi, a strange loner of a guy. Usually, most of the Sect’s Energy Machine Imprints came from him and his disciples, so he was the master of Energy Machine Imprints within the Sect. This old man with the disheveled beard did not look particularly eye-catching, but no one would look down on him.

The eighth was Mies, after he was carelessly knocked out by Hong Guo and the others last time, he was currently staring at Hong Guo and co as they stood behind the Great Supervisors, his expression cold and dark. Evidently, he still had a grudge over what happened last time.

Ninth and Tenth were Demonic Spirit Solomon and Aloran. The two of them were discussing something in whispers, and Aloran’s expression did not look particularly good.

And then there was Eleven, a member of the Ballfish race. This giant and round creature was basically a Ballfish, floating above the eleventh position. Everyone had forgotten its name, and they just called it Eleven. There were two small and short fins on the surface of its black body, and they fanned around occasionally, creating a stark contrast with its roly-poly body. It actually ended up looking rather cute.

Twelve was empty, that was originally Garen’s position, and Thirteen was Lonray, a newbie who had just risen here together with Garen. This person had luckily managed to survive the Void Battlefields, and seeing Garen descend from the sky now, he immediately sent word via voice transmission, enquiring about the situation.

Garen chatted with him idly, waiting for everyone to arrive.

But his gaze swept past all the Three Hearted Disciples and the Great Supervisors.

The last Fourteen was White Night, this guy had just returned recently, covered with wounds. Even now, there were still bandages on his arms. Clearly, his journey to unearth the treasures of his family did not go very smoothly, and he had no leads on his younger brother either. Right now his expression was cloudy, and he looked to be in a very bad mood.

Fifteen, on the other hand, was that mysterious young man. After reaching Three Hearted, he had changed his name, and gave himself the title Prism Light. Right now he was dressed fully in white and looked average, completely outshone by the handsome and ice-cold White Night beside him. He was wholly inconspicuous.

Garen’s gaze turned, and he looked at the Great Supervisors.

There were not many Great Supervisors who had the right to participate in the Courtroom, only five in total. The middle-aged one who taught Hong Guo, the Ice Fox, also stood among them, whereas the other four were two men and two women respectively. They came in different shapes and sizes, but looked like very normal academics, such as teachers or professors. If it were not for the occasional flicker of Inherited Power around them that resisted against the chill of the Courtroom, no one would have guessed that these very average-looking academics were actually Inherited-Level powerhouses.

Three of them were the Great Supervisors who had come to report to Garen back then, and right now all of their gazes considered Garen slightly, indicating respect.

The three Elders seats at the very top remained conspicuously empty.

Whoosh!

There was a distortion of white light, and the Second Elder instantly appeared on the Second Elder’s seat.

As soon as he appeared, he instinctively looked at Garen, who was standing at the Three Hearted position. The Three Hearted position did not indicate their rank, because the ranks of the Three Hearted Disciples had changed recently, and there had not been enough time to readjust them.

Rainy had died, and her seat was emptied, so naturally the rest would take one seat forward.

So even though Garen stood at that position, his rank was not just number twelve.

“The other two Elders can’t make it.” The Second Elder calmed himself down. “Now, I want to tell you some devastating news.”

The Basilica fell silent as soon as the Second Elder spoke, and everyone’s eyes gathered on the Elders’ seats.

“Due to an accident, the First and Third Elders have perished in the line of duty...” said the Second Elder in a grave and sorrowful voice.

The voice echoed around the Basilica, and everyone who heard that news doubted their ears. Some people blinked, and instinctively turned around to ask the people next to them, wondering if what they had just heard was simply a figment of their imagination.

Some people frowned deeply, completely disbelieving.

Eva lowered her head, and no one could see her expression, but they could tell from her tightly-clenched fists that she was in deep shock.

She knew better than anyone else what state the Scarlet Snow Sect was in, Carthage and Garen have been acting all mysterious, as though they barely belong to the Scarlet Snow Sect at all. Recently, she had been secretly investigating the two of them, and the information that she gathered shocked her tremendously, so she grew more and more suspicious of the two. Especially with regard to their powers, their rate of progress had reached terrifying levels, needing only several decades to accomplish what others took hundreds or thousands of years to reach. For two such impossible prodigies to appear in the tiny Scarlet Snow Sect at the same time was a total anomaly...

And during such turbulent times, the two Elders had suddenly perished...

The entire Scarlet Snow Sect had reached a point of life and death!

“I don’t believe it!”

The Silver Fox Great Supervisor stood out and barked loudly, looking slightly panicked and dismayed.

“Father just talked to me a week ago! How could he have died!!??” He was referring to the First Elder, since he was the First Elder’s son in the direct line.

And beside him, another female Great Supervisor also looked disbelieving, as she too stood out and spoke.

“That’s right, my grandfather just sent me a message three days ago, asking me to get him the newest Blue Eagle Stone! Ever since he entered Non-Falling Level, for several hundred years, he had never left the headquarters, who could just sneak into the headquarters and kill two Non-Falling Levels like that!? Second Elder, you...” Her grandfather was the Third Elder. After all, as Great Supervisors who could enter the Courtroom, the two of them had to have relied on their connections to the two Elders, otherwise it would not be plausible for them to get in.

“Silence!” The Second Elder’s authoritative voice interrupted her, and his Non-Falling aura instantly pressed down on them, suppressing them mercilessly.

“You dare doubt my words?!” The Second Elder stared at them coldly. “Guards!”

Two white-armored guards appeared abruptly behind the two Great Supervisors.

“Take them away, throw them in the dungeon, and have them executed tomorrow!”

Executed?!

Just then, not only did the two of them doubt their ears, everyone present there wondered if they had heard that right.

Execution just for doubting what the Elder said? Executing two Inherited-Level powerhouses that had always done their job for the Scarlet Snow Sect properly?!

Has the Second Elder gone crazy?!

Or could it be, that the deaths of the two Elders were closely related to the Second Elder...?

For an instant, Eva, Alice and the other high-ranking Three Hearted Disciples thought of this possibility, and felt that the situation was getting stranger and stranger. No one knew if the two Elders were dead or alive; after all, they were two long-established Non-Falling Level powerhouses, and it was not like people would believe that they had died just because the Second Elder said a few things. Without proper proof and evidence, no one would truly believe that they had died.

“Is he trying to cover up his own actions?” The possibility occurred to some people.

The two of them were instantly apprehended by Non-Falling Light, all their powers completely disabled. They were restrained by the two white-armored guards, and were about to be dragged away.

The Basilica was completely quiet, no one dared to forcefully voice out. The Second Elder right now was very strange, and instead of being calm and low-key as he used to be, he was acting rather impulsive now.

“Wait!”

Suddenly a voice rang out in the hall, gentle and clear.

It was Alice!

She was ranked number two, the leader of Moonshine, and right now, she finally spoke.

“What do you have to say?” The Second Elder glared at Alice coldly. Although all of the Three Hearted Disciples had hidden their abilities to some extent, this woman was the most mysterious of the lot. Back then, when Rainy had been rescued, she could actually manage to hold the Non-Falling-Level Carthage back without getting injured. That was practically unimaginable.

“Executing some Inherited-Level powerhouses just for talking back and suspecting you a little, don’t you find that a terrible waste, Second Elder?” said Alice calmly.

Garen watched this scene with interest, at first he had planned to step out, but Alice had actually gotten one step ahead of him.

Even without the two Elders and the Guardian, even putting aside Garen himself for now, the power of the Scarlet Snow Sect was not all that weak.
