Chapter 313 We're not getting involved anymore.

An intermediate-level Soulmancer, even with a powerful magical artifact, can still be overwhelmed by a higher realm of power.

If Alice, who reached the intermediate Soulmancer level in just over a month, had such a magical artifact, wouldn't obtaining it allow these individuals to reach an even higher realm?

They might even become a "Greater Deity," enter the Divine Realm, and possibly attain immortality!

How could Darius miss such a rare opportunity? n)-o-.v--e(-l.-b((I.-n

In light of this, his son being crippled and losing his superpowers seemed insignificant.

After all, once a Soulmancer reaches a certain pinnacle of strength, their lifespan greatly extends, and the life or death of their offspring becomes less important.

Upon hearing Darius's words, Jayce's face fell. He coldly said, "Your son Jordan was merely crippled, while my son Wesley was killed, his body never found. The Johnson family must avenge this promptly!"

Darius's expression also darkened. For these Soulmancer families practicing in obscurity, resources were scarce. Now, with such an incident, obtaining a powerful magical artifact could be a massive leap forward.

He was the one who investigated the matter, and his son had been crippled. Was Jayce thinking of monopolizing the opportunity?

That is absolutely unacceptable.

"I must personally avenge my son's suffering! Since you, Jayce, also seek revenge, why don't we join forces?"

Darius certainly didn't want to fall behind. If he did nothing in this matter, wouldn't all the benefits go to the Johnson family?

If the Johnson family killed Alice and returned, wouldn't they further overshadow his family?

"Fine, let's go together to seek justice from Alice," Jayce also felt that he must personally handle this matter, to seize the mysterious treasure that transformed an ordinary person into an intermediate Soulmancer in just a month.

How could he let someone else undertake this task?

The leaders of the other three major Soulmancer families, understanding the situation from their exchange, exchanged glances.

Garen then spoke, "Don't rush, both of you. Today's meeting was convened to discuss avenging your sons. Moreover, the opponent is just an intermediate Soulmancer, an independent practitioner not affiliated with any Soulmancer organization. For such a minor character, there's no need for two powerful figures like you to intervene, is there?"

Another leader from the Morgan family also spoke, "Indeed, as the five great families united in our cause, avenging this offense is a responsibility we all share. Moreover, since the opponent's power isn't particularly high, why not let the younger generation of each family handle this matter? It will also prevent others from accusing Texas' Soulmancers of bullying the weak."

Suddenly, Derek, the head of the Martinez family, said, "The 13th Bureau's visit to Texas primarily concerns the severe injury my son suffered at the hands of that Alice. Therefore, our Martinez family must step forward."

Jayce asked, "Your son Andrew was also injured by this Alice? Why haven't you mentioned this?"

Derek, gritting his teeth, replied, "My son was castrated. How do you expect me to discuss such an indescribable matter?"

"A person who became an intermediate Soulmancer just over a month ago has already killed or injured three young individuals from Texas. How can we just let this go? Since things have come to this point, let each family send three young members to New York to see what this Alice is truly capable of."

Derek had seen the situation clearly. If Darius and Jayce were to act, Alice would undoubtedly be doomed, but the treasure in her possession would certainly fall into their hands.

There might be secrets behind Alice.

What if she had discovered some ancient ruins or a legendary secret realm?

Who wouldn't want a piece of that?

If several families sent their elite members, then they would have a chance to seize the opportunity.

And since the Martinez family was also injured by Alice, why shouldn't they have a say in the matter?

Jayce and Darius looked displeased, but things had already reached this stage, and a joint family council had been convened.

Everyone was there to help them seek revenge,could they really refuse?

They were all old foxes,their true intentions were unspoken but understood.

Even if they disagreed now, if Jayce and Darius went to New York alone, wouldn't the other family heads band together anyway?

If a conflict truly erupted, the two of them might not gain any advantage.

"Your point is well taken. In that case, let each family send three young members who are at the intermediate Soulmancer level." As the leading Soulmancer family in Texas, the Johnson family had to make a compromise in the face of such a situation.

Naturally, Darius had little more to say.

Wes had been in Texas for a while now. Before he arrived, he only knew about Alice erasing Andrew's Soulmancer abilities. But after standing in front of the Forgotten Guardian Temple for a while and hearing the discussions of the people around, he instantly felt that the situation had become quite tricky.

No one mentioned the Martinez family's issue.

The talk was all about the Johnson and Adams families, specifically about their heirs being killed or injured in New York.

"Could it be such a coincidence? Offending three of the five major Soulmancer families? One castrated, one killed, and another's Soulmancer abilities crippled?"

Wes felt that his visit might not be very opportune.

Settle this privately?

Just with a fight?

How could that be enough?

And... could it be the same person behind all three incidents?

If Alice was responsible for all of this, what should he do?

Walking in there, could he end up being killed on the spot?

After all, the head of the Johnson family had lost his own son!

And he didn't ask Zoey to handle this.

If it really came to a fight, wouldn't he die horribly?

Seeing the situation was unfavorable, Wes slipped aside and called Steven.

"Steven, I've run into a bit of a situation here..." He could only explain to Steven what he was facing and seek advice on how best to handle it.

After listening to Wes, Steven paused and then said, "If Alice is responsible for all three incidents, then let them do whatever they want. We're not getting involved anymore."
