Chapter 338: Zephyr Clan

But Pi's thinking changed when the tragedy struck.After the clan became wealthy and forgot about the people who still fought on the frontline, they became arrogant and conceited.

Within just a few generations, they started forgetting their own clan roots, resulting in inner conflict.

The patriarch's own brother sold the clan's secrets to their enemy, the Zephyr Clan. What happened next is history. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

For Alex, it was just the usual troupe. The Blaze clan had been decimated, and all their wealth was stolen.

Based on Pi's story, it was a very tragic day. The women were used in front of their men and then killed. Elderly, children, none were spared.

"No one cares about this? Everyone just allows another clan to pillage as they want?" Alex asked.

Based on what he knew so far, despite the inner conflict, there should still be some semblance of communication between each clan.

No matter how much they forgot about the frontline, they would still keep tabs on it in case something happened.

If one of the strong clans started pillaging others with impunity, it would alert the other small clans and could possibly force them to join together and trigger a war.

"Care? Of course, they cared; each of them was a snake. Double-faced snakes that smiled at our faces while having meetings behind our backs to divide our wealth.

Our clan was rich, but many of the members were arrogant."

"I see, so you had a lot of enemies. They held their anger, waiting for the right time to bust out."

Pi nodded. "But that is not all. You may think since we gathered all their ire, we deserved it, but it's not like that. Those arrogant bastards were only the minority."

"Let me guess, those arrogant bastards were the ones collaborating with the Zephyr clan."

"Those animals!" Pi said with anger, his eyes flickering with rage.

"I will do anything to take revenge, literally anything. In one of my explorations, I found a demonic cultivation technique.

It's very risky, but it gives me a good chance to take revenge."

"Tell me about the method."

"Everyone's potential is decided by birth; only a few heaven-defying treasures could change this. But is this true?

The method I found could only be cultivated after losing one's own body. It focused on enhancing the soul and nourishing it with those who are more talented.

As long as I follow the method, I should be able to recreate my own body, which is full of potential."

"I see, so even after you steal someone's body, you will go on a killing spree."

"I will never kill the innocent. My targets are those stronger than me, born with great fortune. I am sure many of them are evil."

Alex let out a bitter laugh, the memory of the devastated city surfacing in his mind.

"Do you think killing someone is that simple? The person may be evil, but what if he retaliates?

What if innocents are killed in the process? And even an evil person has someone dependent on them.

Just like this Midnight clan, what do you think will happen if you kill the patriarch? Will it just stop there?"

Pi frowned. He had never thought it that far. If the patriarch died, of course, the clan would fall into chaos.

Those with strength would try to take over the position, and the weak would be the first to be sacrificed.

"See, you know the answer. In the first place, what is evil? What do you count as evil? We don't have the right to judge someone like that."

"Then what do you think I should do? Just stay quiet and stop my revenge?"

Alex's lips curled into a cold smile as he looked at his hand. In his eyes, it was clean, but in his mind, it was filled with blood.

"I never said that. Just stop justifying your own actions. It's bad, and you know it.

You do it for your own selfish desire. Just like me now, I could just extinguish your soul, but I want to use you. Gift this cultivation method to me."

"I have no problem, but what do you want me for? Do you want to use the armor?

In that case, you will need to make a deal with Tora. But if you try to hurt him…" Pi's eyes glinted with determination, "we will both die fighting."

"Don't worry, I have no interest in that. Now that I know how this armor works, I will just make one myself.

As for you, I will give you two options: stay in the armor and follow your plan, hoping for the best, or I will give you a new body as long as you swear your loyalty to me," Alex replied.

After Zargath's death, he still hadn't filled this position.

There were still a few high goblins in his camp, but each of them was needed to maintain the goblin settlement. He also felt it was better to fill it with other species with different specialties.

High goblins were the best to be commander-type units. If possible, he also wanted to retire Vexgore and make him the mayor of the goblin city of Edonia.

Pi started considering his offer. 'I doubt he is lying to me; it's not like there is anything more for me to lose.'

With that thought, Pi said, "Alright, I will swear my loyalty to you as long as you help me destroy the Zephyr clan."

"Good, we have a deal then. I will start making a new body for you."

After saying this, Alex came out from Tora's inner world. Outside, his fingertips glowed green. Like a composer, his hands started moving, disassembling the black robe.

It didn't take long for Alex to disassemble everything. All materials floated surrounding the murky red crystal. Despite being in parts, each of them was still connected with formation.

Alex didn't destroy it. He modified and enhanced it with runes.
