Chapter 137 - Elder Phil Worries

Looking at their leader walking out of them, Michael has a worried look on his face as he knows what is about to happen to them and he also left the place but before leaving, he turns to warn the others.

"Is better everyone stay at home since it is the only safe place for us right now unless you are tired of living then you are free to roam the place".

After saying these words to the others, Michael left the place and it didn't take long before the others also left the place in a panic.

"Hahaha, just look are scared they are when they saw me" said Jason in laughter as he makes his way to the blacksmith shop.

"Now that they have seen you, it will be difficult for you to get them down" reply the Bracelet.

"There is still time so they can hide for all they want" said Jason with a smile.

When Jason got to the blacksmith shop, sold the beast's part to him before heading back home where he saw Hannah training while his mother was sitting on a log as she watch over her. And seeing how devoted his little sister is about catching up to him, Jason was motivated to cultivate also and since he can't go into the forest to train due to the fact that someone wants him dead, he could only fall back to the space inside the bracelet to train.

A week later…

Inside the phoenix family meeting hall, there was a total silence everywhere as elder George has his head lower.

"It is been a week now that elder Phil sent Fred to the fox family territory and we still haven't heard any news from him" said the grand elder after scanning the hall.

"I believe he is just waiting for the right time to strike him down which is why it is taking so long for him to return" replied elder Phil.

"I don't that is the case since Fred is the kind of person to get his job done quickly so it is likely that he has already been caught by the Fox's family or he was killed by the target" commented the family head.

"And since the Fox's family are not retaliating, it could only mean that Fred was killed by the kid" replied the grand elder.

"That is impossible, there is no way that someone who seems to be in the third stage of the foundation realm could kill Fred who is in the fourth stage" said elder Phil as he did not want to believe that Fred was dead.

"If you think that is the case, then why don't you send someone to the Fox family territory to see if he could be found" suggested elder George.

"There is no need to search for him when my grandson kill is still alive at there" said elder Phil with gritted teeth as he excuse himself out of the hall before going home where he summon someone.

Within ten minutes, a young man with a scar on his face and a slim body like someone who has been starved for years could be seen making his way to elder phil's mansion where he fell on one knee as he greeted before saying.

"What could it be that is troubling you elder" asked the young man.

"Oh blake I have a mission for you and one that I want you to complete within three days, I don't care what means you have to use to get it done all that I want to hear is good news" replied elder Phil with a serious face.

"And who might my target be" asked blake with an insane look on his face.

"He is named Jason of the Mccray family who is residing in the fox family territory together with his mother and sister. Knowing you to be a reputable killer in our family, I believe it won't a difficult mission for you to handle" relieved elder Phil.

"Well that will depend on the strength of the target and let's not forget that it is the fox family we are talking about here so getting it done within that amount of time won't be easy," said blake.

"You don't have to worry about him, he seen to be within the third to fourth stage of the foundation realm" replied elder Phil.

"And what about the fox family" asked Blake with a smile on his face.

"According to the information we got on him, he live close to the forest so you don't have to worry about the members of the fox family getting involved" replied elder Phil.

"Then I don't have any problem but there is still an issue with my pay elder Phil" said Blake with a cunning laugh.

"Here is your pay for the task, I hope you won't let me down" replied elder Phil as he tossed a storage ring at Blake.

"Elder Phil you know by now how I have never failed in any task that has have been assigned to me by the family till date and this one won't be exceptional so worry not" said Blake with a chuckle as he kept the storage ring away.

Not wasting more time with elder Phil, blake left the mansion leaving elder Phil starring at the sky.

"If you are able to escape Blake's clutches then I will have no choice but to get the assassin family involved" mutter elder Phil after some time.

After spending a week training inside the bracelet, Jason was finally able to control the speed of the lightning boot and he has also improved in his phantom kick and the iron fist technique.

"Ahh, now all that is left for me to do is think of a way to get the lightning orb so that I can continue with my training" said Jason with a smile. 

"Or you can think of looking for an area that lightning could easily be found and get baptized by the lightning strike instead of wasting your time searching for the orb" suggested the bracelet.

"You know fully well that it is not going to happen so why stress yourself" asked Jason with a frown. 

"Come on Jason it is just a strike and since you have already know how it feels since you have been tempered by the lightning in here so why are you still scared of it" said the bracelet.

"You can't compare fake to the real thing, beside I struggle to endure the pain from the lightning strike so if it were to be the real thing then I guess I would be crippled the moment I got strike" replied Jason. 

"After searching far and wide you still couldn't find the lightning orb, you will still make up your mind to get struck by lightning so I don't have any worries" commented the bracelet.

"That would never happen so don't get your hopes up" said Jason.

"We shall see about that, by the way, when did you plan to go look for a way to read the scrolls that you brought out of the ruin" asked the bracelet.

"Dammit, why do I keep forgetting about it" replied Jason as he smack his face lightly.

"Those scrolls might contain some ancient technique and here you are not showing any consign about it" said the bracelet in annoyance.

"I just said that I forgot, so what else do you want from me" replied Jason.

"Simple, get to the library and look it up" replied the bracelet as he expelled Jason out of the space.

After gaining Consciousness, the first thing that Jason did was grumble before standing up to go take a look outside only to see that it was not yet night time and he quickly ran off to the library where the attendant led him to where he could find a book that is related to the ancient language but no matter how hard he tries, he was still not able to find the book that is related to the language written on the scrolls and he has to give up the search as he exited the library.

"I don't think it will be that easy to break" said Jason to the bracelet with a sigh.

"I suggest that you take it to the grand elder and see if he might know the language" suggested the bracelet.

"He is having troubles with the pill and if I were to add the scrolls to his trouble, then he might end up killing me out of frustration" reply Jason with a chuckle.

"We are talking about ancient language here and not pills Jason, the two things are different" said the bracelet.

"I don't any different here if he cant figure out what the pill can do, then what makes you think he will be able to know the era this language came from" asked Jason.

"At least it is worth a try" reply the bracelet.

"Since it is already getting dark, I will let him have a look tomorrow" said Jason as he finally agreed with the bracelet.
