Chapter 147 The People From Sect Has Arrived

A couple of hours later, Vik and the leading ancestors came to the main entrance of the town, where the sect had left in the past.

Tai and Pol waited with anticipation while Grelia stood with a nonchalant face.

Vik, who was in front of them, spoke as he looked up. "They are here."

Skree!

Everyone looked up and saw a Flame Eagle Roc descending from the sky.

"How many years has it been since I saw one of these beasts?" Tai spoke with a reminiscence in his voice.

Pol looked at the Flame Eagle Roc with greed. 'If we had these..'

While Grelia's attention was on the people of the Flame Eagle Roc. She wanted to see who this special squad was that the sect sent and that they had to receive in person.

Thrud

The Flame Eagle Roc's talons touched the ground, making ground-digging noise. Then from its back descended a few men and women.

Vik came forward and gave a small bow to the man in front of him. "Greetings, Elder Roy."

Roy looked at Vik, and a big smile grew on his face. He said to Vik. "I didn't think we would meet so soon."

"Me neither." Vik laughed at himself. Then he looked at the people behind Roy, which raised his eyebrows. "Elder Roy, I didn't expect you would bring them here again."

Vik was not surprised by the outer elders that Roy brought, but by the four youngsters.

These were none other than Ban, Jack, Freya, and, surprisingly, Yuki.

"What can I say? They just love their motherland." Roy said with a sigh, like he was very tired to speak of it.

"Him too?" Vik pointed his finger at Yuki while giving him a weird gaze.

Roy didn't turn his back, as he could guess who Vik was speaking about. "No, he is just here for fun."

While Vik and Roy were talking with each other, the ancestors were giving everyone from the sect curious glances.

When they laid their eyes upon Roy, they were shocked and nervous. They could feel the spiritual energy spilling out from Roy's cultivation in the Nascent Soul Realm.

They subverted their gaze and went on to check on the people behind them. Most of the outer elders were in the Golden Core Realm, which made them completely ignore them.

Their gaze finally landed on the winners of the selection process that took place a month ago. They could see it was their offspring, except Ragingwave, which made Tai sad.

They gave them a close look and didn't find anything. It looked like they were just normal people. The ancestors wanted to pry them but halted in their action as it might anger Roy.

"Follow me, Elder Roy." Vik dashed toward the main camp's direction, while Roy and the people under him followed behind.

While heading in that direction, Pol and Grelia came alongside Ban and Freya.

"Hello, kid." Pol greeted Ban with a casual smile.

Ban became cautious when he saw an old man suddenly talking to him. But he relaxed his guard, seeing that it was someone from their own family. "Umm, can I know who you are?"

Pol became stumped at first, but later he understood why Ban didn't know him as he was in the ancestral hall most of Ban's life. "Haha, it's okay to not know me. I am your family's ancestor, Pol."

Pol said it calmly, yet with a slight arrogance in his voice. Then he waited for Ban to show respect, but to his dismay, Ban was still looking at him with a deadpan face while just being a bit surprised. "Oh, I didn't expect to meet Ancestor Pol here."

Pol wanted to say something and even wanted to scold him but stopped, knowing it wouldn't help much.

Ban wasn't disrespecting Pol here; he just had a change in his mentality in the past few months. He had seen many old elders in the sect who were stronger than Pol and even older than him.

On the other hand, Grelia, who was talking to Freya, didn't have this issue as Freya had already met her ancestors. "So, how was your day in the sect going?"

Freya thought for a little before answering. "It is going fine. I just received an accommodation for my own and all the other stuff the sect does as usual."

Grelia squinted her eyes at Freya as she felt there was something wrong with Freya's speech pattern. She wasn't as cold as usual, and she didn't talk much about fighting someone stronger than her.

When Freya came to them to talk about the [ Ice Queen's Incarnation ], she would always talk about if she could fight well using it properly, was this technique was good for fighting, or if she could fight a stronger opponent with it.

Grelia was about to say something else but got cut off.

"Yuki, I want to see if you beat me in the next competition we have." Freya came to a boy who had a beautiful look for a man.

Yuki was dumbfounded. "Competition? What kind of competition are we even having? No one told me anything about this."

"Hmph," Freya sneered. "Do we even have to say this? Anything we do together will result in competition, engrave that in your mind."

Yuki was left dumbfounded by Freya's tyranny. After arriving at the sect, she didn't let him live peacefully. Freya would always come to his place for a fight. At first, Yuki agreed as he had nothing to do but gradually he felt bored and wanted to do something else. However, Freya didn't let him go, so he asked her to let him go.

She answered that she would only leave if she could beat him fairly and without getting badly injured.

Yuki had a headache hearing that, as he knew his peaceful days were long gone.

Yuki looked at Freya, who was looking at her with a blazing fighting spirit in her eyes. "Okay, tell me about this competition."

Grelia watched the interaction between them with a stupefied expression. 'Why does she look like she is in love? If she is, then why isn't the curse reacting!?'
