Chapter 2421
“It appears that you do as well! ” replied the slightly surprised Gerald.

“Indeed… I accidentally learned of them while investigating the deaths of my heirs. Though I’ve been a Domiensch Master for the longest time and can even be considered to be a top master within the cultivation realm, to this very day, the Sun League has given me much more pressure than I’d like to admit. Regardless, from what I can guess, the Sun League appears to be an ancient sect that houses a plethora of experts!” replied Saint Darkwind.

“Well, they’re an extremely powerful organization, so you pretty much guessed correctly. Either way, the truth is, my lover was kidnapped by the Sun League. With that in mind, her kidnapping was the main reason I entered the cultivation realm. I still haven’t given up on unraveling that organization’s mysteries and saving her! That aside, I now get why you want my help so much. It seems we both have a bone to pick with the Sun League!”

“Truly so… While I don’t know much about them, I do know how strong they are… For one, just have a look at this part of my face. It looks kind of bruised, no? It’s an injury they inflicted on me when I first encountered them! At the time, the night was dark and I was distressed since I had yet to find a clue about my heirs’ deaths. While I was drinking by the sea, I suddenly heard a commotion out in the deep blue. Sensing a great power as well, I decided to fly over to have a closer look…” explained Saint Darkwind.

“It wasn’t long after when I saw a giant magic artifact covered in bronze sinking into the sea! Unfortunately, I was a bit too depressed at the time, so I didn’t think much of it. Instead, I simply hit it with my palm to see what the artifact would do when all of a sudden, it began glowing! Though I quickly had to shield my eyes from the light, I did manage to see two vague figures who had white clothes on

pointing at me and the next thing I knew, I was vomiting blood! While I passed out almost immediately after, I’ll never forget that terrifying level of essential qi.”

“It gave me the impression that they were deities who could give and take life away with the simplest gestures They were simply unwinnable against! Regardless, that was the incident that caused this long lasting bruise on my face. Because of those two, I had to recuperate for the longest time! Speaking of which, I did notice something strange after I was injured by them, Mr. Crawford… Essentially, after I got hurt, I soon discovered that I had attained another level of cultivation! It has mystified me to this day.”
