Chapter 219

Fade Chem took out a booklet and handed it to Elder Chai, saying, "I’m here to return this." "This.." The elder took over the booklet and examined it closer. Instantly, his eyes widened and he exclaimed, "The Cloud­Reaching Skill, this is something that the clan has been looking for for ages." "Mr. Chen, are you the one who killed the traitor, Feather Gu, in Hanover City?" Elder Chai looked at Fade expectantly. Fade nodded and said, "Yes, that’s me. I happened to come here on my way, so I thought about returning this booklet back to the Cloud Clan." "Thank you so much, Mr. Chen." Elder Chai saluted deeply towards Fade. Fade Chen was about to leave but was stopped by Elder Chai, who wanted to get all the elders together to thank him in person Fade agreed and 15 minutes later, 8 elders had gathered in the clan’s side hall. As the Guardian of the clan, Donavan Zhuo was not there, Elder Chai was the one who had the most authority there. He took out the booklet and started explaining the whole incident to the other elders. After hearing the story, all the elders were in ecstasy and quickly took a look at the Cloud Reaching Skill booklet. After confirming that it was the real deal, the elders immediately thanked Fade politely. Fade responded by waving his hand as a gesture of goodwill. But at this time, a somewhat unfriendly voice could be heard amongst the crowd, saying "Mr. Chen, may I ask you a question?" Everyone including Fade turned towards the voice. An elder in his fifties that had eyes as sharp as daggers was glaring at him sternly. Fade lowered his gaze and replied, "Yes, please do. The elder glanced around and asked, "I would like to know, how did you find Feather, how did you kill him, and how did you find the Cloud Reaching Skill?" As soon as these questions were asked, Fade’s expression hardened. Everyone’s expression froze in awkwardness and Elder Chai quickly came over. He snapped, "Elder Hu, Mr. Chen has done a great favor for us. What do you mean by this ?" Elder Hu shook his head and looked at Fade, saying, "If everything is true, Mr. Chen is naturally the benefactor of our Clan. But I’m worried that something is wrong." "Wrong ? What do you mean ?" Fade asked coldly. Elder Hu’s eyes narrowed as his gaze was fixated on Fade and asked sternly, "According to the rumors, Feather has now reached mid- Black Level and has overwhelming strength. I want to ask you, Mr. Chen, you’re in your mid twenties, so how did you manage to kill Feather since he’s at mid-Black Level?" When everyone heard this, they couldn’t help but stare at Fade.

his head and said, "Elder Chai, you’re trying to say that it was a sneak attack, aren’t you ? Even if it was one, it still would be no easy feat to defeat a mid-Black Level martial artist. One would need to be at the early-Black Level stages to do so. Mr. Chen, have you attained this level maybe?" With that, he turned back at Fade with a glint of doubt in his eyes. Fade’s eyes narrowed with the accusation, secretly fuming inside. However, he chose not to directly confront them or explain. Instead, he turned around and fixed his gaze upon a big bronze pillar situated in the middle of the hall. He walked to it and stared at it deep in thought. "What are you going to do ?" Elder Hu asked in confusion. "Are you trying to avoid my question ?" All of a sudden, Fade gave a loud war cry and jabbed his right index finger out. Immediately, a fiery-red aura wrapped around his finger and shot out like an arrow headed for its target. The crowd saw this and could not help but be shocked. "What, what is he going to do?" "Mr. Chen, stop it!" Amidst the surprise, Fade thrust forward his finger towards the pillar. A loud crack sound could be heard and he quickly withdrew his hand and placed them behind his back, as though nothing had happened. The elders all looked at the pillar wide-eyed. What they saw shocked them all, as a finger-sized hole had appeared on the sturdy pillar. The hole had been cleanly drilled through the pillar as though it was there all along. All
