Suddenly, the Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan let out a cry of shock, then stared at Linley, asking hurriedly, “Linley, are you capable of changing the direction of gravity within your Gravitational Space?” The astonishment of the Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan caused the other people present to be mystified.
“Quick, tell me.” The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird urged.
Linley felt completely puzzled. This was a very simple thing. Why had the Matriarch lost her cool like this?
“Right.” Linley nodded and admitted it.
“Haha…”
The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan began to laugh, laugh with exceeding happiness. She looked at Linley. “Linley, you should have learned your Gravitational Space technique from the Amethyst Mountains, right?”
Linley was shocked.
How did she know?
Seeing the look of shock on Linley’s face, the Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan began to laugh smugly again.
“Elder Sister, hurry up and tell us what is making you so happy.” The Patriarch of the White Tiger clan urged, and the others looked towards her as well.
The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird was all smiles as she responded. “Everyone, there is no way that this unique Gravitational Space which Linley knows can be developed simply through training. When my mother was alive, she had once mentioned a Sovereign of Destruction to me!”
“Sovereign of Destruction?” Everyone’s eyes lit up.
Linley stared at her as well.
“Right.” The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan nodded. “This Sovereign of Destruction had the innate ability to control and change the direction of gravity, and also exert control over a person’s soul. This Sovereign is extremely powerful…and my mother said that this Sovereign of Destruction was the Sovereign of the Redbud Continent!”
Everyone was stunned.
Linley stared, slack-jawed.
“Aside from this Sovereign of Destruction, there shouldn’t be anyone else capable of utilizing Linley’s type of Gravitational Space.” The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan said confidently. “Oh, right. I also heard that this Sovereign of Destruction has a son. Aside from him and his son, no one else knows it.”
Linley was completely stupefied.
“Sovereign? Son?”
Many things flashed through Linley’s mind, and many things he didn’t understand were suddenly made clear. “That juvenile amethyst beast…could he be the son of the Sovereign?”
Immediately, the clan leaders of the Four Divine Beasts clan stared towards Linley.
They were like people who were drowning that had seen a stalk of straw they could clutch onto for survival!
They were incomparably arrogant, and felt themselves to be the favored ones of the heavens. However, after their four Sovereigns had fallen, they discovered…that the Four Divine Beasts clan had instantly fallen into dire straits, and could be wiped out at any moment.
They were hoping that a Sovereign would be willing to step forward and help them! But none ever had!
“Linley!” Gislason’s face was covered with smiles. “You know the Redbud Sovereign?”
“No…I don’t know him.” Linley shook his head.
“How could you not?” The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan began to laugh. “You learned your Gravitational Space technique from the Amethyst Mountains, right?”
“Right.” Linley nodded.
“That’s right. The Amethyst Mountains is the place where the Redbud Sovereign was born. That’s his home!” The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan sighed in amazement. “The power of that Sovereign is exceedingly strong. If he is willing to stand out and say but a single word, those eight great clans will immediately be so terrified that they would flee.”
Linley still felt completely stunned. So the Amethyst Mountains was the resting place of a Sovereign.
“My Gravitational Space was taught to me by a juvenile amethyst beast named ‘Reisgem’.” Linley said hurriedly.
“Reisgem?”
The clan leaders all shook their head, indicating they hadn’t heard the name before.
“I haven’t heard of him either.” The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan laughed. “But from the sound of it, he’s most likely that son of the Sovereign.”
“This Reisgem is a Commander of Purgatory. You don’t recognize him?” Linley was puzzled.
“A Purgatory Commander?” The six people around the table were all startled.
“A person who becomes a Purgatory Commander does so to participate in the Planar Wars.” Gislason said. “Our Four Divine Beasts clan doesn’t get involved in the Planar Wars, so we don’t pay too much attention to it. In addition, Purgatory Commanders often change. No one knows who is currently a Commander.”
Linley nodded.
“Linley, you can go back for now.” Gislason laughed.
“Right. You can go back. From today onwards, you don’t need to get involved in the matters of Bloodbath Gorge. Go back and train hard, and then, after you reach the Highgod level, we’ll see.” The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan laughed as well.
Although Linley was still rather puzzled, he still bowed. “Yes.” And then, he left by himself.”
After Linley left.
“Haha…” Gislason began to laugh.
“Haha…” Immediately, everyone else began to laugh as well, their faces covered in smiles.
The Patriarch of the White Tiger clan sighed emotionally, “It’s been so many years. Our Four Divine Beasts clan finally sees a ray of hope!”
“Right! We finally have a ray of hope!” Gislason sighed as well.
Given the glorious former days of the Four Divine Beasts clan, how could they be willing to forever hide within the Skyrite Mountains? Although the Lord Prefect of Indigo Prefecture had entered into an agreement with the eight great clans, causing them to be forbidden from attacking within the Skyrite Mountains…all this meant was that the roots and foundation of their clan was protected.
As for returning to their former glory…
They had to have the support of either an invincible Highgod Paragon, or that of a Sovereign.
“The Redbud Sovereign.” The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan laughed. “Over the past ten thousand years, we haven’t seen any signs of hope at all. But today, we finally do…given that the Redbud Sovereign was willing to pass his ultimate technique to Linley, the relationship between him and Linley has to be a deep one.”
“Elder Brother.” The Matriarch of the Vermillion Bird clan laughed as she looked at Gislason. “You have to protect this Linley and take care of him. We need to rely on him to connect with the Redbud Sovereign.”
“Don’t worry.”
Gislason began to laugh as well. “I guarantee that nothing will happen to Linley.”
