Chapter 844: Chapter 844: Tell the Whole World
"Ten years ago! Seven Clouds Academy fell, and its protector elder, Saul Johnson, betrayed the organization and established his own with the staff!"
"That is, Shadow Gate!"
Venassa Pine took out a piece of paper, reading softly.
"No wonder... No wonder the third in command of Shadow Gate, Arden Bread, actually knew what I looked like."
Julius Reed gently put on his mask.
It seemed as if he were back to ten years ago.
When he had founded Seven Clouds Academy himself.
Now, his memory was still not coherent.
But, some important people and events, were still in his mind.
"When Ceylon Mountain attacked the academy, they killed eighteen of my core disciples and took countless treasures from me!"
"Deep Cold killed one of my protector elders and set the Dragon King’s Hall on fire!"
"Skyfire took three of my ancient books, killed nineteen of my disciples, and hung their corpses outside the Divine Dragon Tripod..."
...
Each sentence Venassa Pine read was a blood debt!
Ten years ago, those who had joined forces to attack Seven Clouds Academy—she had noted each one!
Only for...
Today.
"Those who hold a bitter vendetta against Seven Clouds Academy include eighteen factions, three hundred and seventy-two people!"
By the end, Venassa Pine’s voice was trembling.
Each of those numbers had once been a living being!
They had once been...>
brothers she spent every day with.
"To date, sixteen factions, three hundred and two people remain!"
"Three hundred people..."
Julius Reed gently caressed the mask on his face and said softly, "Last night, Wyatt Carmichael and Arden Bread both fell by my hand."
"Anyone listed, I will annihilate completely! For the deceased, I will exhume their graves, crush their bones, and scatter their ashes..."
"As you command!"
Venassa Pine and Templeton Lena bowed deeply.
Their bodies, trembling with emotion.
"Mad Dragon, the surviving thirteen members of Seven Clouds Academy are waiting for you in an abandoned structure thirty miles outside the city!"
Templeton Lena, dressed in plain clothes, carried an indescribable, carefree air about him.
Although Venassa Pine wore a black trench coat, murderous intent spread from her.
"Brother Davenport."
It was then Eli Yarrow pulled up in a black sedan at the entrance of Eastern Bay Park, waving and calling out.
"I need four cars."
Julius Reed turned and spoke.
"Give me three minutes!"
Eli Yarrow took off his sunglasses and pulled out his phone to send a few messages.
"Brother Davenport, where to?"
After arranging the cars, he asked.
"To pick up... brothers, to bring them home."
Julius Reed sat in the passenger seat, his tone carrying a hint of melancholy.
"What is this..."
Looking at the mask on his face, Eli Yarrow blinked, "Never mind, it’s probably best I don’t ask."
Whoosh!
The car door closed.
Venassa Pine and Templeton Lena sat in the back, expressionless.
"This is..."
Eli Yarrow felt something was off.
In the car.
It was chilling, filled with cold air.
If he hadn’t recognized Julius’s silhouette and clothes, with that mask on, he really wouldn’t have been able to tell.
"Picking someone up."
Julius Reed took a deep breath.
In his hand, he tightly clutched the ancient book stained with fresh blood.
Three minutes later, three sedans parked behind them.
"Thirty miles outside the city."
Julius Reed took Templeton Lena’s phone and tossed it in front of Eli Yarrow, "Make it quick."
"Understood!"
Eli Yarrow pressed hard on the accelerator, speeding towards the destination as fast as he could.
At this very moment!
Thirty miles from Eastern Bay Park in an old building overrun with weeds.
Two groups clashed with blades drawn!
The wind howled, and the weeds danced wildly.
Murderous intent began to permeate.
"Rhidian Young, stop this futile resistance."
A man with a scarred face dressed in a black tank top, holding a box of covert weapons, said coldly.
Behind him, about thirty people, all carrying boxes of covert weapons, surrounded the people in the dilapidated building.
On the other side.
Clutching the ancient cold weapons, dressed shabbily, covered in wounds.
"Skyfire, you have pursued me all this way, you must know the spirit of my Seven Clouds Academy!"
Rhidian Young gripped the long sword in his hand, looking at the scarred man, "Seven Clouds Academy, we have the dead but no prisoners!"
"Along the way, you’ve faced numerous powers blocking and chasing you, and yet you still have..."
Skyfire pointed to them, checked, and then spoke, "You still have thirteen people left! Seven Clouds Academy is truly remarkable. Unfortunately, we aren’t friends."
"Mad Dragon has already appeared! You can kill us, but Mad Dragon will definitely not spare you!"
Rhidian Young’s body bore numerous wounds, his clothes already stained blood-red.
Yet his tone was still incredibly firm!
Behind him, twelve members of the Seven Clouds Academy faced death unflinchingly!
In their eyes, there was a thick fighting spirit!
"Mad Dragon?"
Skyfire touched his nose, slightly smiling, "Mad Dragon is already dead, that’s just a smoke bomb thrown by Shadow Gate. If Mad Dragon were still alive, would your Seven Clouds Academy be reduced to ashes, only left with thirteen people?"
"Stubborn!"
He shook his head, disdainfully spoke, "Back in the days when Mad Dragon was still around, your Seven Clouds Academy had the capital! I, Skyfire, would have to bow down in respect upon seeing you!"
"But, Mad Dragon is dead."
Skyfire walked forward, his leather shoes crunching on the gravel, making a grating sound.
"Rhidian Young, times have changed! Seven Clouds Academy has become history, recognize the reality!"
He gently lifted the lid of the hidden weapon box, "Hand over the Divine Dragon Tripod, and I will spare your lives."
"What joy is there in living, what fear in dying?"
Rhidian Young slowly raised his long sword, shouting loudly, "Is there anyone in Seven Clouds Academy afraid of death? If so, leave now and I won’t pursue it!"
A moment of silence.
No one spoke.
"Is there anyone who wishes to fight to the death with me? To defend the honor of our Seven Clouds Academy!"
The voice of Rhidian Young roared like rolling thunder, echoing throughout the crumbling building.
"Fight!"
Over a dozen people shouted in unison.
Facing death unflinchingly!
Even though they were already covered in wounds!
Even though they hadn’t closed their eyes in a day and a night!
But what of that?
Seven Clouds Academy, no cowards!
No weaklings!
What they have, is a steadfast spirit!
A steel legion!
The wind blew, causing the weeds to rustle.
Inside the building, deadly silence.
"Rhidian Young, are you truly willing to use your life to defend the soon-to-be-nonexistent Seven Clouds Academy?"
Skyfire narrowed his eyes, asking, "Is it worth it?"
Rhidian Young did not speak.
He answered with his actions.
After countless battles along the way, his body bearing multiple wounds, he dragged his exhausted form.
Lifting his long sword, he faced Skyfire and walked toward him.
"At your peak, perhaps you could have battled me! But now, you don’t even have thirty percent of your fighting strength..."
Skyfire set the hidden weapon box on the ground, drawing out a steel sword from behind.
"Come, let me end you personally."
After finishing speaking, he curled the corner of his mouth, holding the steel sword and charging forward!
Clang!
The swords collided!
Rhidian Young staggered back three steps!
Before he could catch his breath, Skyfire’s second slash came whistling through the air!
Clang!
Another loud noise!
Rhidian Young’s long sword flew out of his hand, as he knelt on one knee on the ground.
Spitting out fresh blood.
"After more than a dozen battles, you could still block my two strikes..."
Skyfire approached him, slowly raising his long sword, "Farewell on your journey."
Whoosh!
Just as he swung his sword down!
A powerful force broke through the air!
Striking his long sword!
The steel sword broke with a sound!
The shock forced Skyfire’s weapon from his hand, numbing his tiger’s mouth.
"Who!"
He turned around, looking at the three people approaching head-on!
Just now...
It was a pebble!
That managed to shatter his steel sword!
"Four years ago, they called me Mad Dragon."
Julius Reed slowly approached, pointing at Skyfire, "Now, I will use your head to tell the whole world. I... have returned..."
