Chapter 171 Encroaching Waves

Chapter 171 Encroaching Waves

"Oh? And what side is that..." Instructor Moneca asked curiously as Zeras turned back giving a side glance, before winking at her.

"Honestly, if I were you. I wouldn't be worrying so much about me. It is the Nine Families genius I'll be worried about..."

"Whatever. Just make sure you don't do anything stupid. And also be very careful and watch out for the danger Within the Ruins themselves. While there has been no record of anyone dying, it is been a hundred years since then, who knows what will happen, this time..."

"That's a good point..."

"Ok, then. See you in five days from now..." Instructor Moneca said as she headed out of the secret hall, Zeras following behind her.

"Take care Instructor Moneca. It won't make me happy seeing those large eyebags..." Zeras said as the door shut closed before Instructor Moneca could say anything more.

"It is so obvious?" Instructor Moneca muttered to herself rubbing her eyes before a small smile appeared on her face as she moved away from the place.

Zeras took a deep breath in, his formerly calm demeanor breaking away as his brows furrowed together in slight worry.

Just who did he offend that they placed such a bounty on his head?

500,000 Star coins!!

Even he was tempted!

He was already well aware of the people that'll be coming for his head but he knew that wouldn't do anything. This would require him to get to the root of the problem and cut it off.

"The Celestial Titans Cultivation Ruins..." Zeras muttered under his breath.

This was the greatest source of power of the Nine families and he'll be heading there in just five days from now, with the greatest genius of earth.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to rewrite his fate and grow even closer to achieving his goals.

Surely he was going to go all out this time without holding back a single thing.

"Then five more days it is..."Putting the issue at the back of his mind, his hands reached out from a book on the shelves as he continued reading.

He should be done with everything in less than five days, coincidentally when the ruins will also open. Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com, don't you think the Nine families are really going all out for this Celestial Titans Cultivation Ruins? I heard all their geniuses are in closed-door training..."

"It's truly a bit strange. I'm sure another deadly wave not smaller than the one in the past would once again blow once the Celestial Titans Cultivation Ruins passes..." Another higher-up said, a female when suddenly she turned her head to the green-haired man in their midst.

"Hey Shiron, will that granddaughter of yours be joining on this expedition too?" She asked looking at the old man who had his eyes closed but slowly opened them on hearing the call.

"No, she won't. It's simply not worth it..." Commander Shiron said.

"Oh," The female higher-ups replied.

"If the Nine families are doing all they can to improve their geniuses ability. What about the EIA? Shouldn't we enrich the person who would be representing us..." A dark-haired man whose muscles were clearly defined even though he was in the large EIA uniform suddenly brought up as the others gave a thoughtful expression.

"That's true. We're already lacking behind the Nine families by a single step. To stop the steps from widening, perhaps it's also time to take this event seriously..."

In the Celestria Family Grounds...

The hall was silent, four elders sitting below while at the utmost front was a dais where a throne sparkling with lightning could be seen creating sounds that chilled the soul and frightened the air.

The place suddenly shook as the area of the throne morphed and In the blink of an eye, a person could be seen sitting on it, the sound of crackling lightning present in the room becoming louder.

"We welcome the Patriarch..." The voice of the door elders rang out.

"I heard you have important news for me..." The thick voice boomed out rattling the walls and the ground.

One of the elders suddenly extended his hands as a rectangular technological tool appeared and floated towards the patriarch.

Eyes narrowed looking at the picture on the image before suddenly widening.

"Zeras Celestria? Hmmm, how familiar. Killing two birds with one stone huh?" The patriarch said as the device in front of him exploded into pieces, the remains already drifting into the air before they even touched the ground.

"This meeting is over. Now, call out Mason and Theo for me..." The patriarch's voice boomed out as the elders stood up giving a bow before they all disappeared into thin air at the same time, leaving only sparkles of lightning present where they formerly stood.

"Zeras Celestria. Who would have thought that alien boy was still alive? Well, time for him to leave..." The Patriarch's voice rang out, the sound of thunder in the room reaching a deafening level.

The door to the hall opened, and in the next split second, two young men kneeled in front of the throne.

"You summoned us, patriarch..."

"Well, I have a small assignment for you..."

"Consider it done, patriarch..."
