Chapter 890
Although it was true that martial realm experts were divided into five major stages–Martial Lord, Martial King,
Martial Emperor, Martial God, and Martial Saint–the most powerful person that Kate knew was her grandfather.
Wade had already been a late–stage Martial Emperor for many years.
If Norvin had truly broken through to Martial God, he would be the most dominating presence and disrupt the
current balance of power!
This treasure–hunting journey would go from being ambiguous to clear: the Swallows would be in control!
This was definitely not good news for the Medicine Sect and might even bring more harm than good.
Kate shook her thoughts and asked seriously, “Grandpa, what stage are you in now?”
Wade sighed and smiled wryly. “I’m considered to be at the peak of the Martial Emperor stage, almost reaching the
realm of Martial God, but I’m not quite there yet.”
Kate frowned slightly.
Seeing her concerned expression, Wade added, “However, if Norvin has just entered the Martial God realm, I can
still stand toe–to–toe with him if I use the exquisite techniques of the Medicine Sect.”
Kate’s expression improved slightly.
As long as they were not completely overpowered, there was still a chance.

Wade’s gaze became more serious.
Kate nodded slowly.
The next day, after a night of rest and preparation, everyone woke up early.
The Black Hawk led the group to a valley based on the new map.
There was thick fog, and it was bone–chillingly cold. The visibility inside the valley was extremely limited.
However, they could see snowy white landscapes on both sides of the mountain peaks where the mountain wind
blew like sharp knives cutting across their faces.
Even though everyone present was a martial arts expert, they all shivered in unison.
Crack!
Squeak!
In the silent wilderness, occasional sounds could still be heard. It was unclear whether it was the sound of snow
pressing down on branches or wild animals hunting.
“Let’s go. Don’t dawdle,” Norvin urged impatiently when he saw the Black Hawk hesitating
The Black Hawk frowned slightly but decided to enter the valley.
“Wait! There’s something off.” Wade suddenly stopped everyone. After sniffing the air a few times, he said with a
serious expression, “There’s a strong smell of blood here.”
Andrius, the Black Hawk, Kate, and the other members of the Medicine Sect all paused.
However, Norvin snorted and said, “This is the wilderness. It’s just the remains of animals after wild beasts finished
hunting What’s there to be afraid of?”
“Exactly. All of us here are martial realm experts. Besides, it’s broad daylight The beasts in the mountains are not
something to fear. Let’s just go in,” Tyrell also spoke without hesitation.
“We’ve already wasted too much time coming here. Let’s move on quickly, find the treasure left by the Kleins, and
return to Kiyoto as soon as possible.” Ronald’s opinion was almost
identical to theirs.
Damian snorted, “We’ve come all the way here. Are we going to turn back just because of a little smell of blood?”
After saying that, he led the Sheppards into the valley.
Seeing this, the Swallows, the Fullers, and the Anders also followed.
Wade frowned slightly.
However, he still led the experts of the Medicine Sect and followed behind.
“Be careful.” Wade instructed in a low voice, “This valley is filled with strangeness. The smell of blood isn’t as simple
as it seems. There might be a bloody battle ahead.”
Squeak, squeak, squeak…
Chitter, chitter…..
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as Wade finished speaking, there was a cacophony of noises. The sounds were very faint individually, but
together, they sounded like a mighty river rushing into the sea, overwhelming and causing one’s scalp to tingle.
“Everyone, watch out!”
“Stay vigilant!”
“Be on your guard!”
The family heads immediately looked around with vigilance.
However, the fog here was too deep, making it impossible to see the surroundings clearly.
“Up there!” someone suddenly shouted
Everyone looked up and was instantly filled with feat
Above their heads, a swarm of bats was capidly approaching
Each bat was the size of half a ineter to a meter Theil wide open mouths emitted a strong foul odor, accompanied
by the scent of blood
They were Sanguis Bats!

These bats were not only abnormally huge but also incredibly large in number. There were no less than ten
thousand of them!
When they flew together, they completely covered the sky, obscuring the bright sun on the snow–covered mountain
and plunging the area into darkness.
