Chapter 2253
Quintina did not hide the truth from Yoan.
“Sir Yoan, I’m sure you know that although the strong demons left the earth in ancient times, they left some of their minions
behind-The Demon Race’s Fangs.
“These Fangs were scattered throughout the Three Thousand Worlds. My father encountered a Fang and was injured by
Demonic Art, causing him to be inflicted with Demonic Energy.
“Since then, my father has been tortured by Demonic Energy and has been meditating in seclusion. By chance, it now happens
to be the time to suppress the Demonic Energy in his body. If the elders don’t suppress it in time, then...”
Quintina wore a worried expression.
Yoan’s face became solemn. He never expected the Ancient Clan’s leader to have sustained such severe injury.
James was also paying attention to their conversation.
Hearing that it was related to Demonic Energy, James was slightly tempted to take action. He had a Demonic Body and was not
afraid of Demonic Energy. He had the ability to dispel the Demonic Energy out of the Ancient Clan’s leader and absorb it to
nourish his own body.
However, he was in the Ancient Realm.
The fact that he had a Demonic Body could not be exposed, or he would get into huge trouble. Yoan thought awhile and said,
“How about I inform the Welkin Academy’s headmaster? With his strength and the Ancient Clan’s elders, maybe they could
suppress the Demonic Energy in your father’s body.
Quintina shook her head slightly and said, “It won’t work. The headmaster has known about it. since long ago. He came here a
few years ago but couldn’t suppress the Demonic Energy within my father’s body.”
“So the headmaster already knew...?” Yoan took a deep breath.
“Haah.” Quintina sighed and said, “Sir Yoan, I’ll stop disturbing your rest and head back first.” After speaking, she turned around
and left the courtyard.
James did not say anything throughout the entire conversation.
Although he could save her father, he was unwilling to risk exposing his identity. If he were to reveal his identity, it would not be
as simple as one of the Divnity Sect’s elders coming after him. In likelihood, the entire Divinity Sect and the powerhouse of the
Ancient Realm would target him.
James continued to cultivate silently.
At that moment, the Ancient Clan’s leader, Farley Gideon, sat in a lotus position in his seclusion sanctuary which was located in
a cave on Mount Trinvard’s back mountain.
Demonic Energy oozed out of Farley’s body. Surrounding him were some Ancient Clan elders. These elders all called forth their
energy to suppress the Demonic Energy in Farley’s body.
However, Demonic Energy grew stronger.
Boom!
A burst of potent Demonic Energy swept across and struck the eight elders.
All the elders, including Thoryn, fell to the ground and spat out blood.
Farley, on the other hand, collapsed to the ground feebly.
“Clan Leader!”
Ignoring their injuries, the elders got up from the ground.
At that moment, Farley sat back up with difficulty. He was relatively young and looked about
40 years old. However, his face was pallid and hardly had any color to it.
He gently waved his hand and stopped the elders from approaching him.
“I-I’m afraid I’m not going to make it.”
Farley uttered weakly, “The Demonic Energy is terrifyingly strong. It’s rapidly destroying my body. I’ll be completely consumed by
it in three days at most. Don’t announce my death. Recently, the Divinity Sect have been testing the waters. They’ll definitely
seize the opportunity to destroy our clan if they find out about my death.”
Hearing this, the elders had solemn faces.
Farley said, “You’re all dismissed. Help me get Quintina here.”
“Understood.”
The elders left reluctantly.
After a while, Quintina arrived. Seeing her father’s weak state and his body surrounded by Demonic Energy, her pretty face
crumpled in worry. She quickly rushed over. “Father.” However, she was knocked away by the Demonic Energy before she could
get close to him.
She got up from the ground and stood nearby. She looked at Farley with tears in her eyes.
“Quintina.”
