Chapter 1439 I'd Like To Try
"Elder, I couldn't succeed with the mission, someone beat me to it."
One of the figures replied.
The two figures soon came to light and they were the man Grey spoke with a while back and the other person was an old man with wrinkles.
"What do you mean someone beat you to it?" The old man asked with a cold expression.
"Lewis was defeated and all the goods were destroyed." The man replied.
"Such incompetence." The old man scolded, "How did you come about this information?"
"Lewis sent for me and told me about it. While I was here, my siblings were apprehended. Apparently, Lewis was under the person who defeated him and he tried to betray me." The man replied.
The old man snorted coldly, he looked around.
"Who is the person capable of defeating your siblings?" The old man asked.
The man was about to reply when Grey and his group stepped out.
"It's us, we are the ones who defeated them. You'll be joining them soon." Grey said.
"What's the meaning of this?" The old man turned to the man.
"I'm sorry, but I had no choice." The man shrugged and retreated a few steps back, standing behind Grey's group.
"Elder Julian." Aries cried out.
She was familiar with this Elder, he was one of the oldest Elders in the Faction and even though he is still in the Venerable Plane, he was highly respected. Only a handful of people could be said to be on the same level in terms of status with the old man in the Phoenix Faction. Aries would never believe such a respected Elder would be involved in something like this.
"Little one." Elder Julian dropped his head, he knew Aries. He wasn't familiar with Grey and his friends since he didn't step out during the trial, he had more important things to do at that time.
Klaus and Reynolds followed Grey's lead, attacking the man as well.
"He's close to becoming a Pseudo..."
Aries paused mid-sentence as the trio's attacks were sent flying back to them.
"He has the ability to repel attacks. He's a Space Elementalist, but also has the fire and darkness element." She explained.
"I see." Grey didn't budge, destroying the attack coming his way.
He also knew how to use his space element to repel attacks, but he wasn't as proficient with it like the man.
The man stood in the sky, untouched by any of the attacks.
"Little one, you know me so well. You should also know that if I get serious, only those in the Sovereign Plane can stop me." The old man was calm, he looked at Grey, "I know you. You're the one the Gnomes want dead."
Grey didn't know how the man was able to recognize him even though he hadn't said his name, but he wasn't worried. He would kill the man even if he doesn't know.
"Attack together, we can end him." Klaus said.
"There's a limit to the strength of attack he can repel." Grey was composed.
He joined Klaus and instead of using his normal blue flames, he used his icy flame domain, enforcing Klaus' attack in the process.
The second the domain covered the man, a thin shield appeared around the man, it was clear that it was what he uses to repel attacks coming his way.
When the domain hit the film, the domain couldn't pass through and was forced to move around it. The man was covered in the domain, but he was perfectly safe in his space.
"This is my space, do you think you will be able to break it?" The man asked.
"I'd like to try." Reynolds prepared a lightning spear, focusing all his energy at the tip.
The man scoffed as Reynolds sent the spear at him, but his expression soon turned serious.
