Chapter 30 - First and Second Elder.

I stood there looking at them as they all smiled.

Maybe I should just kill them all.

I can immediately kill Ximen Jong and render the Fourth Elder unable to fight anymore if I use the Heavenly Demon Forms.

But will I be fast enough to reach even Ximen Jong before the Grand Elder reaches me?

Naaa theres no way I'm faster than a Martial Grandmaster right now even with both the Heavenly Demon Technique and the Phantom Technique.

"Just hold it in David, your time will come." I say to myself as I heave a sigh.

"I think there is a misunderstanding here Grand Elder." I say calmly.

"You will do as you are told and that is final." The Grand Elder says to me in a commanding tone.

"He will be going nowhere with you." A deep voice is suddenly heard coming into my courtyard.

Two elderly male figures land from the sky, one by my left and the other by my right.

The two more elderly than the others aside the Grand Elder.

The one by my right had a long grey teddy but no beards or mustache.

His hair also grey.

The male by my left, huh? I've never seen him before, he looks so similar to the one by my right, though he has a short grey beard and he looked calmer, his eyes looked uninterested.

He had his arms within his cloth.

"What do you think you are doing Grand Elder?" The male voice that was heard speaks again.

It was the elderly man by my right.

He was filled with energy and vigor, his energy overflowing.

It took me every muscle in me to not go down to my knees.

All the guards present were crushed to their knees under the pressure of his aura, including Ximen Jong.

Even the Third and Fourth Elders were affected by his aura.

It was the First Elder.

Hmmm? wait, I thought the only Grandmaster in the Ximen Clan was the Grand Elder? why can't I gauge this man's level.

"What do you think you are doing bullying your juniors Ximen Jin?" The Grand Elder says out loud to the First Elder as he rises to his feet.

"Oh, my apologies, I didn't realize my energy was leaking out." Ximen Jin says with a smile as he takes back his energy.

Leaking out? You intentionally let out your aura to exert pressure you old man.

"I am glad that the Ximen Clan has produced another Martial Grandmaster." The Grand Elder says as he stretches forth his palm pointing in the direction of the First Elder.

"Congratulations on your breakthrough First Elder!" The Third and Fourth Elders greet the First Elder.

"Congratulations on your breakthrough First Elder." Ximen Jong says with a bow as he manages to get to his feet.

The guards get to their feet and offer their greetings with a bow.

"But what are you doing here First Elder?" The Grand Elder asks, his tone now serious.

"I should be asking you that." Ximen Jin says as he glares at the Grand Elder.

I see, so even among the Elder's council there are disputes.

"All I am doing is carrying out my duties." The Grand Elder states.

"By bullying a fifteen year old child?" Ximen Jin questions.

"This fifteen year old child is a prime suspect to the murder of the second son of the Patriarch, Ximen Lao." The Grand Elder states lashing out a bit.

"You have no justification for naming him a suspect." Ximen Jin lashes back.

The two go back and forth as the tension rises between them.

They didn't even realize when they started exerting pressure with their aura on the surrounding.

The table and chairs completely crushed flat under the pressure.

The ground cracked beneath them.

Ximen Jong and all the guards were brought to their knees bending over with their hands on the ground.

They were on all four.

The Fourth and Third Elder were bent over a little at their waist.

I was not gonna let anyone get me to my knees after Ximen Lao.

I had to activate my Phantom Technique to be able to withstand the pressure and yet slowly, I was going down to one knee.

I could not use the Heavenly Demon Technique due to its feature of turning my hair and pupil red, that would be too suspicious.

Slowly I was going down.

And just when I felt like I couldn't hold it anymore the other male by my left suddenly releases his own aura clashing with the other two.

The impact from their auras throws everyone aside the Grand Elder and the First Elder away.

The guards are sent rolling on the ground.

So was Ximen Jong.

The Third and Fourth Elder land on their feet.

I was sent rolling before I came to a stop on one knee and a hand on the ground.

What the fuck was that?

Another Martial Grandmaster?

The Grand Elder and the First Elder calm down after this.

"I see, so you also made a breakthrough Ximen Jun." The Grand Elder says to the other male with a look of dissatisfaction.

Ximen Jun says nothing and just stands there looking at the Grand Elder with an uninterested look.

"Congratulations Second Elder." The Grand Elder says reluctantly as he suddenly flies off.

The Third and Fourth Elders offer their greetings and dash off.

Ximen Jong and the guards arise and offer their greetings before leaving.

The Second Elder huh?

Three Grandmasters in one Clan? What the fuck man.

After they had all left, Ximen Jin suddenly coughs out blood covering his mouth with his right hand.

Ximen Jun goes over to him as he rubs his back.

"I guess that's the difference between an Entry level and a Mid stage Grandmaster" Ximen Jin says as he slowly drops his hand off his mouth revealing blood on his hand.

He turns to look at me.

He walks towards me a bit.

"Little boy, follow me." He says to me as he walks by me.

Ximen Jun walks beside him.

The crowd at the gate hurriedly disperses as he moves towards it.

I get to my feet and slowly follow behind them.
