Chapter 761 - Conflict of interest inside the clan (1/2)

Chapter 761

…

A big turmoil is currently happening in the Gipard town as a large number of soldiers are currently occupying the town along with many powerful lords and some high lords from the Osmond clan. The people are beginning to discuss in a hushed tone as it seems that the clan is trying to capture Master Si Ji.

A large wanted poster is being posted all over the town, as the search for Master Si Ji has intensified along with the people of the Mystique workshop.

Right now in front of the newly founded training school that the town and Shin Jiao have created to help the Osmond clan and the human race with the basic knowledge in crafting, alchemy, and array techniques that Shin Jiao wanted to share, many soldiers are currently trying to break the barrier.

The 5 story building is being surrounded and those businesses on the lower floors have already been vacated as the soldiers wielding blades forcefully tried to break into the training school.

Meanwhile, inside the 5 story building, the students and some of the staff are watching this scene outside anxiously.

”What should we do dad?” Ji Koon asked while looking at his father who seems to be contemplating on something.

Ever since they came to this town, Ji Ha-jun was really interested in working with Master Si Ji. And soon he was assigned as the training school head. He has helped a lot of these students to know more about the basics of crafting, alchemy, and array that Master Si Ji is trying to teach.

Ji Ha-jun himself has advanced his knowledge of arrays ever since he came to this place. He has gained enlightenment and improved his own arrays while listening to the lectures and reading the manuals that Master Si Ji provided for the school.

Though it was a little hard for him to change his ways and modify his learning, he is still a 400-year-old immortal array expert, how could he not learn something from the books and the teachings?

As the banging outside intensified, Ji Ha-jun's expression turned more serious. He did not know where Master Si Ji has gone to, but right now, he is hoping that he would appear. If this happens he has already decided that he and his son would go with him.

”These things in this here are not important to me… If I can get my son and myself out of this place, then they can have everything in here.” He thought.

While in the midst of thinking, Ji Ha-jun suddenly noticed a figure standing beside the wall of his office. He immediately shifted his gaze towards that person. When his eyes saw who it was, he suddenly showed a faint surprise and a smile bloomed on his face.

”Master Ji… How? How were you able to get in?” Ji Ha-jun asked with a shocked expression.

”Master Ji… You're here!” Ji Koon also greeted with a smile.

”Yeah, well … I can't let them take my friends away now, can't I?”

”Come… we will leave this place…” Shin Jiao said as he gestured for the two to approach him.

The two showed a confused look on their faces but still followed Shin Jiao.

”After we are gone, I will leave this place… The books and the items in here are my gifts to the clan. They can have it… But for the two of you… are you willing to join me?”

A smile appears on the father and son's faces.

”Master Ji… Our goal is to become stronger and reach the pinnacle of cultivation and power. If I stay in the Osmond clan, I will just be drowned in an endless conflict of interest. Although High Lord Fallion and High Lord Yoshi is our supporter and we are being assisted by a saint ruler, the politics in the clan is too chaotic. I have already thought it through; being with Master Ji is my best option if I wanted to grow further…” Ji Ha-jun said without hesitation.

”Yes, I agree with my father…” Ji Koon also said with a smile.

”Alright… let's go then…”

Shin Jiao grab the shoulders of the two and they suddenly turned into dust and vanished from the office.

He did not want to take anybody else as he knew that many of those students are loyal to the Osmond clan and are just there to learn what they needed to learn. And now that the clan turned hostile, trouble would be following them if he let those other people in.

As soon as they vanished, the strong barrier protecting the 5 story building suddenly turned gray, and not long later it disappears.

The soldiers immediately rushed inside and saw the students are showing horror in their eyes. Everyone is afraid to be implicated in these troublesome matters, so they did not fight back.

Everything inside the building was confiscated by the soldiers by the command of the two pompous-looking young men.
