Chapter 330: The Master of Black Cloud (2/2)

”Master!” The clouds were instantly overjoyed when they saw this man appeared. Their nerves relaxed finally as they stood to his side.

”Don't worry, my children. I'll take care of this for you.” The old man nodded and comforted them.

”I crossed the line?” Reverend Ancestor sneered and said, ”Look who's talking. You are the one who ordered your kids to attack my academy, knowing that it didn't do anything wrong to you. So who crossed the line here?”

”We have asked for the item nicely. And that's what can we do the most.” The old man coldly said, ”Fellow Daoist, the item we are asking is an item that should be kept in the long darkness. Should it see the light once again, you don't know what will happen.”

”That's true, the item should be kept in yhe darkness. That's why we are doing it right now.” The ancestor answered.

”No, that isn't enough, Reverend.” The old man shook his head and said, ”There's a high chance that the item will see the light in your academy. So, getting it from you and keep it in your stead is the best idea. Let's not get this further, our children have already suffered. I am just asking for that item, and we will immediately leave and no longer bother your academy.”

”Keep dreaming.” The ancestor snorted and said, ”The item has been tasked by Chaos Origin to be taken care of by the academy. You have no say here.”

”Chaos Origin was too careless for someone who reached the very most peak of this world.” The old man shook his head and sighed, ”Very well, if we can't ask you that nicely, then we have to take it by force. The fate of the world relies on this, so I can't just let you take care of it. With the weakened power of the academy, I know that you'll not even stand a day when that item rampages.”

”So much blabbering. Fight if you must.” The ancestor spoke in a cold tone and gripped her glass sword revealing another batch of millions of sword arcs.

”What item are they talking about, Master?” In the spectators side, many people heard this and the youth were very curious about this item that they were battling for.

”It is an item that said to be suppressed by Chaos Origin in the past. That item is very sinister and he needed to use all his strength just to seal it. He also tasked Reverend and several ancestors of the academy not to ever touch this item and don't let it get to a light. Furthermore, there are circulating rumors that the disappearance of Chaos Origin Progenitor has something to do with that item.” His master answered with a serious tone.

The disappearance of the progenitor had created a hot debate between people. Some were saying that he died from old age, and some were saying that it was because of the item and several thought that he was just hiding and reclusive because of and tribulation.

Either ways, the progenitor didn't appear in the public for millions of years now.

The student couldn't help but gulp a mouthful of his saliva. This information were too much to take and he needed to digest it slowly. Then, he realized that the cultivation world was more cruel than he thought.
