Spiritual Roots Cleansing Stage Expert

No matter how weak the Assassin in front of this new person is, he always trusted his instinct. He might not be able to tell the cultivation level of this person, but his experience told him that this person is very dangerous.

"We pay our respect to the elder!"

The two people who were targeting the Assassin earlier paid their respect to this new person. The Assassin earlier had his suspicions. But now he was sure that this new person is none other than one of the elders of the Dark Grimm Grotto!

"May I know who your excellency is?"

The Assassin is now like a fish on the chopping board who could die at any moment as long as the other person wished it. So prudence is the best option. Since he is already trapped in the Array, all his means to escape were now closed. He is at the mercy of this new and terrifying person.

"You are not qualified to know my name, kid. As for who I am, I am sure that you have already guessed it!"

That person said casually. But every word pierced the deepest part of the Assassin's heart making him drenched in a cold sweat.

"Please forgive me for my impudence. But I have no enmity with the Dark Grimm Grotto. So may I know how I offended you for an elder of the Dark Grimm Grotto to take action against me personally?"

"Humph! How dare you? Do you think that you are qualified to even speak to the elder like that? Know your place you pathetic assassin."

The one who spoke was the male person among the two siblings. He was enjoying the pathetic situation the Assassin was in. At the same time, he was trying to flatter the elder figure from the Dark Grimm Grotto.

How could the elder from the Dark Grimm Grotto fail to notice what the two siblings were trying to do? But he didn't care. He was not such a narrow-minded person who could fall for such lame tricks.

He ignored the two siblings and then looked at the Assassin who was struggling to break free only to fail. The elder from the Dark Grimm Grotto shook his head and said, "Don't resist. With your cultivation, it is impossible to escape from the Array. Even if you have somehow managed to escape, you have no way to escape."

The elder from the Dark Grimm Grotto smiled faintly and said, "My disciples have covered the entire forest. You have no chance at leaving this forest unless I show mercy."

The Assassin looked around. Sure enough. He might not have found anyone. But he could sense the presence of a bunch of people. Moreover, each company was emitting the presence of advanced stages of the Physique Strengthening Stage. This means every person hiding in the forest is much stronger than him.

The Assassin sighed in anger. He regretted that he didn't kill the two people before and ended the trouble. If he killed them earlier, then today he wouldn't have encountered this calamity. But there is no medicine for regret. He believed that he had to take this situation seriously and make sure that he escapes from this trouble.

Ethan was looking at everything that was happening from a corner. As soon as he escaped from the rope, he didn't escape immediately. He was just curious about the result of the fight between the Assassin and these two new mysterious people.

But now he regretted his decision. If he ran away as soon as he escaped, then things would have been different now. He wouldn't have needed to encounter this Elder from the Dark Grimm Grotto.

It's not that he doesn't want to leave. But he long sensed those terrifying people hiding in the forest. Even the System warned him about them. Around 12-15, people are surrounding his hiding spot. Unless they wrap up things from their side, he had no way to escape.

This is the reason why he regretted not leaving this place as soon as he was free from the Assassin's trap. But after looking at how the two siblings trapped the Assassin, Ethan was sure that these people from the Dark Grimm Grotto had surrounded this place even before he escaped. That is the reason why he didn't run away.

In the beginning, he was curious. But later he found that he would have been dead by now if he had decided to leave. These people from the Dark Grimm Grotto would have killed him for sure.

But the biggest threat that Ethan found is not from the people who were hiding in the forest. But his biggest threat was from the old man who was with these two siblings. The Assassin might not be able to tell, but with the help of the System, Ethan could tell the Cultivation base of this Old Man.

Spiritual Roots Cleansing Stage!

The Old man is a Spiritual Roots Cleansing Stage expert! That is the next stage after the Physique Strengthening Stage. And Ethan was still an Elementary Stage Cultivator.

For the elder from the Dark Grimm Grotto, finding Ethan was very easy. But Ethan's aura was protected by the System. So even the Old man with the cultivation base at the Spiritual Roots Cleansing Stage failed to detect Ethan.

So Ethan had no choice but to hide and wait for the right time to leave. Or else, he will have to encounter unnecessary trouble.

"May I know how could I help the elder?"

The Assassin asked with the utmost respect. He doesn't want to anger the elder from the Dark Grimm Grotto. If he angered him, then it would be nothing but asking for trouble.

"I want to know where Kevin Walker is."

The elder from the Dark Grimm Grotto stated his purpose. He said so casually without any fluctuations in his expression. It was as if even if an earthquake came and people died in front of his eyes, then it has nothing to do with him.

But as soon as the Assassin heard what The elder from the Dark Grimm Grotto said, he immediately froze. Especially when he heard the name "Kevin Walker", his facial expression changed suddenly. Right now his expression was completely unsightly.

"Of course, that was the only thing I want. I want you to come with me as well. As for the reason, I think there is no need for me to say anything. You are well aware of the reason."

The Assassin was boiling with anger. Every person has a bottom line. The Assassin also has his own bottom line.

And the name "Kevin Walker" was his bottom line.

"Go ahead and kill me. But I won't say anything."

The Assassin suddenly changed his tone. Earlier he was showing respect. But now he no longer displayed even a slight trace of respect when he spoke.
