Chapter 69 The Core Technique

In the Light Yellow Forest.

"Elder Odino, why wouldn't you help us find the thief!?" Brustiar's yell could be heard. His chest was heaving up and down, looking like he was holding back his anger.

"Listen, I will investigate the murder of Tin on behalf of you guys, as he is one of our inner sect disciples. But I can't help you with finding this thief. It is your fault as a patriarch for not heavily guarding your Treasury, where the most valuable items are held." Odino lectured in a commanding.

"And if you are really saying that the thief is a demon cultivator, then it becomes much simpler. I will catch this murderer, and along with that, your thief will get caught too."

"But…"Brustiar wanted to say something but couldn't. He wanted to pull Odino in by making the logic of the suspect in both of these events be the same person, but now that Odino has said that, Brustiar himself got conflicted.

Odino smiled at him."Patriarch, I think you have much more problematic issues in hand. I got the news that a huge group is heading toward this town."

Brustiar and others' eyes widened upon hearing that. Brustiar muttered to himself. "Don't tell me…"

He looked at Odino with hesitation and then finally spoke. "Elder Odino, can you make them go away? We do not want war."

"Yes, Elder Odino."

"Please help us."

Behind Brustiar, other elders also requested, and some were close to bowing their heads.

However, Odino wasn't fazed by seeing their puppy eyes. "You seem to have forgotten something, patriarch Brustiar."

Hearing Odino's voice a bit raised, everyone around him looked to see what he wanted to say.

"The towns under the sect will be protected by the sect itself from an outside force. So, if anything happens between the inside people is not our responsibility to meddle in. The PoisonFire Clan is also located in a town that is under us." After saying that with his chest puffed, he raised his eyebrows at Brustiar. "If you want us to meddle in something that is happening between your fellow neighbors, then I will have to apologize early on. You see, your logic would make the sect want to completely destroy the clans and your family."

Brustiar and others' eyes widened as what he had told was true. Brustiar gritted his teeth silently, as if he had never felt this much hopelessness and anger in his life.

Gravitar noticed his change, so he grabbed his shoulder, trying to take him away before something big escalated here. "Let's go; you can see Elder Odino won't help us. We should instead start thinking of something else."

"Okay," Brustiar agreed with him with his head down and walked away. The elders followed behind him and walked away in shame.

The disciples who were from the Burnheart Family felt ashamed and tried to hide their faces from their fellow disciples.

Odino looked at their backs and pondered. 'I hope you can bring some chaos; if not, the rats will not come out.'

…

"So, this is the core technique that made Burnhearts who they are." Gale was now dressed properly and was looking at a book made of multiple parchments. "But why didn't they let everyone learn it?"

Jasmine answered his question. "I heard only people from the main branch are eligible to learn this technique from birth. If you are from the branch side then you had to prove your worth first."

Gale was heavily confused, as he had not even heard about this technique from anyone's mouth. He also saw it use firsthand by Tin.

[ Burning Heart : The core technique of Burnheart Family. This technique has four forms, and the usage of each form changes with the user's weapon. ]

[ Do you want to receive it? ]

[ Y/N ]

Gale didn't hesitate to choose yes. He had seen every storage ring, and all were filled with useless stuff, except the high-quality weapons and spirit stones. The rest were useless to him.

The technique turned into a speck of light and went inside Gale's head. Gale closed his eyes and sorted out the knowledge he was receiving. After a few moments, he opened his eyes. "So, that's it."

He was about to think further more when he heard Jasmine ask."What did you do? It turned into light specks and entered your head, I have not seen anything like that."

Gale smiled upon hearing that and said a bit probably."That is one of my abilities to learn things quickly."

"Awesome," Jasmine was truly in awe after learning about this weird ability. 'It could make cultivation so much easier!'

"So, Gale. What will we do next?" Jasmine then asked, saying she couldn't think of anything further.

Gale took her and made her sit on his lap. He kissed her lips before saying. "We don't have to do anything today. We will just cultivate together the entire night, just you and me. The main thing will happen tomorrow."

"What will happen tomorrow?' Jasmine hung her arms on his shoulders and let him sleep on her breast.

"Hehe," Gale started to chuckle as he buried his head into his favorite pillows. "We entertain everyone in this town with the biggest play they have ever seen."

"Oh~" Jasmine became very curious about it but decided not to ask anything about it. She wanted to experience it herself.

Then suddenly Gale said as he pulled out the mask."Put on your disguise."

The next moment, Kaley entered the room without a knock. She saw Lenny resting his head on his maid's thighs. She trotted before him and said."Lenny, wanna go to the judge camp? The results are just going to come in the next few hours."

Lenny got up and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Kaley. "Kaley, I want to ask. Do you think your father loves you?"

Kaley, who just sat beside him, became stumped. "What are you saying? Of course, he loves."

"Oh." Lenny's cold face turned into pure amusement.
