Gacha Sovereign

Back to the old man, as soon as he realized that he was tricked by Alex and co. He went on a rampage. Finally, at that time, he realized there were a few people there with their cultivation crippled. Some of them were alive while most of them were dead. Judging from the corpses, they seemed not to be killed by monsters. Instead, it was from a human.

He arrived at that conclusion after he saw the sword wound on their body. He looked at the people who were still alive, looking at their empty and shocked faces. He slapped them, trying to wake them up.

"Bastard, wake up!"

The first one that managed to wake up was the old head of the Quinto Family. When he snapped from his daze, he finally realized there was a person in front of him. When he checked his cultivation, he realized that he had been crippled.

He tried recalling what happened. He remembered that when the golden lightning struck and made the sky turn to golden color. They were in a daze like they were in illusion. After seeing that golden color, they felt that someone that looked like Alex appeared in their mind. That person locked them inside that illusion.

He had tried to break free a few times before giving up. But, after receiving a slap from the old man in front of him. He finally managed to break free from that illusory prison.

The old man in front of him suddenly realized that the Quinto Family's old head had come back from his daze. He immediately released his tyrannical Spiritual Energy. From a cripple's point of view, this Spiritual Energy was enough to choke them to death. Even if he didn't direct it to kill them, just by near him, it was enough.

"Se-Seni…or" The old man tried to speak.

"Speak! Who are you to that Young Man!" He retracted his Spiritual Energy a bit.

"Thank…thank you…Senior" The old man spoke, but his lung was still hurt because of the previous Spiritual Energy.

"Hurry Up and Speak! I will kill you!"

"Ye-ye-yes! I am the former head of Quinto Family from Shades Town, the town near this place. Thank you for saving my life. Our Quinto Family will be eternally grateful to you."

"Shut Up! I don't want to hear that. I only want to know anything about that young man" The Martial King let his Spiritual Energy to pierce one of Quinto Old head's legs.

"Argh!" Jonas Quinto screamed out of pain. "Ye-yes! I…I only know that person is undergoing his tribulation for Martial Grandmaster. At first, when we saw this, we thought it was a Monster Beast that was trying to evolve. Considering it attracted many monster beasts around the area. We proceeded carefully. But, when we arrived, we found out that it was not a monster beast. Instead, it was him."

"Who is he?" The Martial King asked coldly. He felt that other forces would arrive in a minute. So, he became a bit impatient.

"We…we don't know. I…I can have my family to search for his information, Senior."

"So you don't know anything. You think your family can compare with the Zhou Kingdom. Hmph, since you waste my time, then die."

"No, Senior plea-!" Before he finished speaking, the Martial King had killed him. He didn't forget to kill the survivor too. He won't let the other forces know any information. At least, he was in a better situation than them who knew nothing.

He will mobilize the Zhou Kingdom to search for his information. But to suddenly do a full search about Alex, it can make the other forces become suspicious. He went to Shades Town.

When he arrived, he saw many people standing on the top of the city wall. He released his Spiritual Energy to make them fear him.

"Martial Lord…"

"Martial Lord…"

Because of their misunderstanding and lack of knowledge, they thought the old man that came to them was a Martial Lord instead of Martial king.

"Where is the Quinto Family?!" He asked coldly.

The Quinto Family's head immediately covered with sweat. He didn't dare to show himself after hearing the cold tone from him.

"If no one showed up, I will destroy the entire town."

All of the people started sweating, the City Lord immediately went up to the sky and talked to him, "Senior, Congratulations for your breakthrough. I am the City Lord of this town. I can guide you to the Quinto Family."

"Good, lead me."

"Ye-yes!" The City Lord spoke hurriedly. But before leading him to Quinto Family, he found the Quinto Family's head in the crowd.

"Senior, that person is the current family head of Quinto Family." The City Lord said while pointing his finger.

Knowing that he was found out, his legs started shaking. He went up to the sky, "Se-Senior, I am the Current Head of Quinto Family. Congratulations on your breakthrough. How about coming to my family for a celebration? We have prepared a banquet just for you."

"Lead me to the house."

"Ye-yes!" He misunderstood the Martial King's intention. He started smiling that he thought he had won. He led the Martial King to the house immediately.

The others were shocked by that. All of them had the same thought, 'Did the Quinto Family know something about this guy?"

They started chasing them to the Quinto Family. But suddenly, an explosion sound was echoing. They looked at the rising black smoke in the air. After arriving at the scene, they gasped. They could see many corpses lying on the floor lifelessly.

Finally, they managed to see a familiar corpse in the entrance. It was the corpse of Quinto Family's head. They can't find the senior anywhere, but they can see the end of Quinto Family. All of the Quinto Family members had died.

Looking at the gruesome scene, they immediately shuddered. They were wondering why such a thing happened to the Quinto Family. Later they found out that the Quinto Family sent out a few men to ambush the 'Senior', and this was his retaliation.

...

At the previous place. From all influences, Heavenly Sword Sect came first because their location was not that far. The first elder, accompanied by another three elders, arrived at the scene. They were astounded when they saw the scene.

The ground had been dyed red, and many monster corpses were in the field. Considering the danger level in the area. They didn't find any Martial Lord rank monster. They also found human bodies. They were the people of the Quinto Family. Checking from their wound, the elders were sure that the wound didn't come from the monsters. It was done by a human.

They speculated that it was the one who made the phenomenon did this. Not long after, people from other influences started to come. First, from the Rainbow Flower Sect, then Mount Hua sect, along with Buddha Sect and finally the three kingdoms.

They didn't come at the same time. When the elders from the Heavenly Sword Sect came, they split up to search the area because they didn't find the one who was behind all of this. It was the same from the people from the other sects and kingdoms.

When the elders from other influences met with each other, they mocked each other per usual. Even so, they didn't stop searching for any clue until they became frustrated and met each other at the center of the accident.

They immediately looked at each other with hostility. Although the relationship between each influence was neutral. They by no means had a good relationship either. They can, at any time, make war between influences.

"It seems that Heavenly Sword Sect comes here first. Wouldn't you want to explain to us what you have found?" The grand elder from Rainbow Flower Sect asked. She was a granny with long white hair. She held her wand with her old hand. Even though she was like that, the sharp tongue of her was still the same.

Hearing that, the people from the other influences started looking at the people from Heavenly Sword Sect too.

The first elder narrowed his eyes. He cursed the old hag. He had known this old hag for a long time, and her tongue was sharp as ever. He alone didn't find anything from here. Even if he found something, why would he want to share it with these people?

Suddenly he found out something odd. There were no people from the Zhou Kingdom here. He immediately directed the hostility from himself to the Zhou Kingdom. "Ho... rather than asking that question to me. Don't you guys realize that there are no people from the Zhou Kingdom here?"

"!!!"

All of them immediately looked at each other. They found out that it was true. There were no people from the Zhou Kingdom came. For such a phenomenon, there was no way the Zhou Kingdom would miss it.

But before they spoke, three people came. All of them were the people from the Zhou Kingdom. They were the backup people that the Zhou Kingdom sent. It was to avoid suspicion from others. After all, if they didn't present such an important thing, the other influences will suspect them, and their deep plan might be found out by them. That was the last thing they wanted.

...

After the Martial King destroyed the Quinto Family, he went straight to the Zhou Kingdom with his full speed. When he came back, the others were surprised. He came alone.

"Hmph, that brat ran so fast. Give me a paper, I will draw his face." Before the others spoke, he said his piece.

"Elder, what do you find? Is that person a genius?"

"Hmph. He used his Space Element to escape from me."

"Space Element?" All of them were shocked. It was one of the rarest elements. The Space Element was the most mysterious element, and there were not many of their Elemental Art.

"Give Elder Orlando a paper." The king said. His name was Zhou Xia. Although he was the king of the Zhou Kingdom. In reality, he was only a figurehead. The people behind him were the ones who secretly controlled the kingdom.

Then he turned to a minister beside him. "Take two subordinates to go to the scene."

Judging from how fast Orlando came back, he figured out that the other influences hadn't found him. If they weren't present at that place, the other influences might suspect them. That's why he asked other people to come to that place.

The war minister obviously complied with the order. He immediately rushed toward the scene. Because the elders from other influences came and searched the area first. They had enough time to rush, albeit barely.

The servant gave a paper to Orlando. Orlando tried his best on the drawing. After finishing the drawing, he checked it once more, and it resembled Alex's face. He waved his hand, and the drawing flew to the king's hand.

When the king saw Alex's face, he frowned. It was an unfamiliar face. He gave it to the others too, hoping that one of them knew him. Unfortunately, none of them knew Alex.

Orlando said, "Make the people search about his information."

"But, elder Orlando, if we started searching for his information. Others might suspect us." The king asked while furrowing his eyebrows.

"You don't need to worry about that. At the scene, there was a family that sent their people to investigate. All of them had been incapacitated by him. I managed to know their family, and I massacred their entire family. You can use this excuse for the search."

He massacred the entire Quinto Family for this reason. If he could blame that brat with this, they would have a valid reason for searching his information. They can just say that this family managed a small business for them. But Alex killed them and didn't show respect on their face. With that, they can avoid suspicion from others.

"Elder Orlando, Do you have any other information?" The king asked politely.

"That brat just broke through to Martial Grandmaster. He has Space Element and strange power. That's right, he has a pet, a white fox with a pink color on the tip of its fur." Orlando didn't say any detail about Leoz and Anna since he wasn't sure what kind of existence was theirs. In his eyes, they were like an illusion, that what he meant by a strange power.

"Understood. We will try to search for his information." The king said politely.

Orlando nodded and left. The king ordered his ministers to search for Alex's information. After all, each prominent family had its own people as officials in the kingdom. Using those families, they could search for Alex's information faster.
