Chapter 210 - 170.5 : Attack (1/2)
The two who just arrived are the old woman and the short old man Arthur saw a few days ago. They were the elders accompanying Elo Huo and they were both God Realm, moreover, they were both 8th Grade Gods.
The old woman started healing Elo Huo's arm and the old man dived underground in search of the double-headed leopard. Alas, his search was futile as he returned from down below with an infuriated expression.
”Ahhh it hurts!”
Elo Huo cried in pain as he held his shoulder where blood was gushing nonstop. Arthur, who was possessing the woman, walked next to Elo Huo and tried to sort of console him without doing anything strange. Since the woman was lower Realm than him then possessing her proceeded smoothly without meeting any resistance.
Regrowing an arm is a doable thing if rare plants are used, which is why the elders were not that much worried about Elo Huo, nevertheless, they were angry and there's nothing here that they can their rage upon.
For a genius like Elo Huo hailing from their academy to be this injured just because of a God Beast, he even used his lantern, which made the matter more shameful.
”That's what you get for being careless!”
The old woman scolded Elo Huo without saving him any face which made the boy's face distorted. The juniors remained silent as they didn't dare to meddle but you could see some of them are still afraid of the leopard.
Even the two elders were confused, normally, a God Beast shouldn't be able to bypass the Golden Crow, especially if it was done that easily!
A few minutes later, with the consistent begging of Elo Huo, the elders agreed to let him join them to the ruins despite his missing arm. He also asked his woman to come with him, which was perfect for Arthur.
While hugging Elo Huo's still intact arm, Arthur tagged along and followed the two elders. They have already entered the central part of the tomb, the ruins were all decayed and some of them were destroyed. However, it was said that there are some special runes that contain treasures or even powerful beasts that guard priceless plants.
Arthur could see a lot of juniors venturing deep into the ruins and exploring the area but the big shots and geniuses went with the elders from their sect because the treasures here do not entice them.
The elders of the big faction are bringing the top disciples to the main palace of the tomb, which where the actual tomb is and where the manual along with the other good treasures are hidden.
Arthur didn't talk much to not seem out of character, furthermore, Elo Huo seemed focused on the ruins and didn't mind it at all, so he just hugged the boy and silently followed the elders.
About two hours later, after traveling at a decent speed, they reached a large square with a main blue palace situated at its center. There was already a few factions present such as Kai Min and his sect elders, Cold Swort, who seemed to be slightly injured. Emily, Kithel and the red-haired youth were also here.
Arthur glanced at the red-haired youth, who instantly sensed it and glanced back at his master. He immediately knew that the woman was his master. To not raise any suspicions, he didn't stare long and didn't talk or make any weird gestures, he just closed his eyes and stood near Kithel.
'As expected, that kid is really good friends with Kai Min, excellent.'
Arthur looked toward Kai Min, who was unscathed and in a very good mood as his trip in the swamp was fruitful. A kid stood behind Kai Min, he was the one Arthur put a GPS on, and from the looks of it, it was the right choice.
”You seem to be late, Granny Teresa.”
Krores, the elder from Kai Min's sect spoke mockingly to the old woman accompanying Elo Huo. In response to his provocative words, the granny just snorted and ignored him.
