19 The Ancestor is Exposed (1/2)
FairWind City, Lorren clan neighborhood.
*Crackle*
The air seemed to split, cracks could be seen at a glance as a young man's figure fell to the ground.
*Cough Cough*
Rainer, the young man, spat the blood that had gathered in his throat.What he thought it would be a simple 'jump' resulted in a near-death experience.
He felt as if his body was in a washing machine, all his organs trembled and they tried to relocate to their original positions without success.
After circulating the bit of spiritual energy he had after using Void Step, Rainer got up to seek refuge.
He dragged his body to the first place he was able to recognize.
The warehouse of the Clan!
...
In a hall of the Lorren clan, Alisha was doing her duties when a sudden explosion interrupted her.
After such a sudden noise, Lerna jumped from Alisha's body and swiftly slipped towards the exit.
”That explosion seems to have happened nearby... Wait Lerna, where are you going?”
”...!”
After having witnessed Lerna's reaction, Alisha knew that Rainer was in danger!
She quickly left her duties and headed to Rainer's chamber.
...
After seeing Rainer vanish in the air, both elders were shocked.There was no cultivation method in the clan that involved such a mystical technique!
”It must be the cultivation method which his father left him in inheritance,but I never knew that Janus possessed an instant movement technique.”
The drool from the Grand Elder was falling like a waterfall,if he were to give such a mystical cultivation method to Yren, his status would be guaranteed for a lifetime.Besides, Yren was Rainer's brother, so they should share the benefits.
Of course, he didn't think about the moment when he handed Janus' inheritance to both brothers, he gave Rainer the most common cultivation method that existed and to Yren, all Janus' properties.
”I can't let Rainer die until he gives me the manual!”He thought as he left the chamber in pursuit for Rainer.
...
A few minutes later, Gunm and Jull left the chamber to follow the trail of blood.
In the distance, Alisha saw the ruins of what used to be Rainer's chamber as well as a trail of blood...
Alisha's face turned pale after seeing both elders leaving Rainer's chamber, then she collapsed on the ground and cried in despair...
...
When Rainer arrived at the warehouse entrance, the door was opened and a middle-aged man appeared.
After seeing Rainer covered in blood but without any external wounds, the man was surprised and let him pass.
”No...I can't...they're...chasing me...” He murmured with the little strength he had remaining.
”Come in brat, I don't have all day...” The middle-aged man replied.
After leaving Rainer on a table, the man went into the storeroom and took some herbs and a few concoctions.
