No matter how strong Gwain may be, dealing with their twill surely be easier than facing those strange, skilled individuals from the Summerton family when they resurfaced. And if they manage to weaken each other in the process, we can swoop in and reap the benefits without lifting a finger." The four of them continued their scheming, unwilling to move forward. They knew all too well that should they be discovered, they too might get caught up in the maelstrom of the battle that was brewing.

Meanwhile, Julian, Ashton, and Roselynn were gripped by fear, hearts pounding as they stood frozen in place. Any one of the masters surrounding them could end their lives with ease, a thought that gnawed at their nerves.

Luckily for them, none of the fighters spared a glance in their direction.

Curiosity burned within them-who was truly the stronger one? Gwain or Emmanuel? But as mere novices, they had no means of understanding the Chapter 1928 The Standoff in the Ancient Woods depth of these warriors' strength. How could they possibly judge the prowess of such titans? Their eyes eventually turned to Wyatt. After all, Emmanuel had once fought Wyatt and emerged victorious, though not without difficulty.

As they watched, it becclear that among the trio, Wyatt was indeed the weakest. Handling three or four opponents at once seemed to push him to the brink, and on more than one occasion, death loomed close. Meanwhile, Gwain continued to fend off multiple foes, all while managing to save Wyatt's life. The contrast between the two could not have been starker. As the night deepened, shadows lengthened, and the growing darkness tipped the balance further against those with fewer numbers.

Finally, Gwain's voice rang out, sharp and cold, slicing through the tension.

"We hold no personal grudges. But if you're determined to fight to the death, don't blme for showing no mercy!" Chapter 1928 The Standoff in the Ancient Woods 0 In one fluid motion, Gwain unsheathed a sword, its gleaming blade reflecting the cold light of the moon. The air around them seemed to grow heavier, the temperature plunging as a palpable chill swept across the field.

No one dared to advance. The terrifying, bone-chilling intent emanating from Gwain was too much for even the bravest to withstand.

"So... So powerful..." Ashton whispered in awe, voice barely audible. It was undeniable now-Gwain was stronger than Emmanuel, who had once claimed the title of Grandmaster of Nuthana. It was not just stronger; Gwain's strength seemed overwhelming.

A sudden shout shattered the silence. "Stop!" Gary, realizing that even their overwhelming numbers would not be enough to bring Gwain down without immense losses, made a quick decision. Even if they could kill Hank and Wyatt, too many would fall to Gwain.

"Gwain, we do not quarrel with you. If you're determined to enter the Ancient Woods Hall, so be it! But mark my words-if you die in there, don't turn around and claim we did not warn you! Let's go!" Chapter 1928 The Standoff in the Ancient Woods With a single order from Gary, over a hundred experts vanished into the night leaving no trace, even the wounded disappearing into the shadows as if they had never been.

Julian and Roselynn hurried to help Ashton to their feet, quickly retreating deeper into the mountains alongside Gary and the others.

Gwain and the companions no longer bothered with stealth, their steps bald as they pressed forward.

"Move out," Gwain commanded with quiet authority.

Behind them, the four emissaries continued to trail at a distance, their curiosity unquenched. What exactly was hidden within the Ancient Woods? Why had modern technology failed to detect any structures, while the place teemed with so many people?

Emmanuel's curiosity was just as intense, if not more By this time, they had arrived at the entrance to the Ancient Woods, Sage by their side.

Chapter 1978 The Standoff in the Ancient Winds The forest loomed ahead, dark and dense, its depths shrouded in an impenetrable blackness. Even the most advanced military-grade lights could barely carve a path through the heavy veil of night.

"Commander, this forest is a barren wilderness, tangled andovergrown like a living maze. Legends say that none who enter ever return. It's not wise to

proceed at night," Sage cautioned, fully aware of the commander's m strength but still concerned about the danger ahead.

Emmanuel, however, was resolute. "My sister might be inside. Other than y son, she's the only family I have left. I can't wait." Sage had no choice but to comply, leading a small team equipped with tracking devices and lighting gear as they carefully ventured into the pitch-black forest, navigating through the thick, oppressive air.

In the shadowy heart of the Ancient Woods, four distinct groups pressed forward, each on their path, driven by personal motives. Smoved quickly, others with caution, but all were headed toward the sunknown
