In Jensen's family hall.
pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ Looking at his father's trembling hands, Lucius Jensen frowns. He assured me that he is perfectly fine. His health is in good shape. "Is there any other issue?" Finance problem?" Lucius made a mental remark.
"Father, "What exactly is going on?" He inquired solemnly.
Elder Jensen looked at his son when he heard that. "Lucius, I betrayed you. I betrayed your trust. As a grandfather, I've failed." Elder Jensen uttered a tearful utterance. His eyes have already become as he reveals his heart's grief.
Lucius Jensen got out of his seat. Hearing his father's words, his chest tightened. He couldn't help but feel apprehension about the unknown. "What do you mean by failing as a grandfather?" Lucius asked his father. What happened to Philip? Elder Jensen's heart is pierced by his every word. Last but not least, a word about Philip. Elder Jensen couldn't stop coughing up blood.
Lucius Pupils constricts when he sees the blood. "Father!" he yelled. Lucius meticulously examined his father's condition. His face became paler. Grief wreaks havoc on Elder Jensen's body. Lucius couldn't stand it any longer. "Tell me!" he said to Elder Jensen's second brother. "What exactly is going on?"
Elder Jensen's second brother gulped down his saliva when he heard that. As his gaze met Lucius', he began to stutter. "Little Lord Phi," he says. He couldn't finish his sentence. He then gathered his thoughts. "Your son passed away, Lucius!" He muttered, his teeth clenched.
In Lucius Jensen's ears, his words rang like thunder. In an instant, his cool and calmness vanishes. Lucius then turned his gaze to his father. Elder Jensen was unable to confront his son directly. "Yes, my grandson was killed in a life-or-death duel."
Lucius Jensen's heart was filled with rage. He was unable to process his father's words. "How is that possible?" Philip, is my son? Before Lucius could process the information, Elder Jensen's second brother interrupts him with, "Don't worry, Lucius! Our family will be safe with you here. You can remarry and have a child."
"Bang!" a crashing sound reverberates throughout the area.
Lucius' rage erupts like a volcano. It eventually finds a way out. As Elder Jensen's second brother finished speaking. Lucius' palm struck him in the chest. He flew back like a broken kite and was eventually smashed against the wall. As a result of the impact, he vomited blood. And faints on the spot as a result of a concussion.
Elder Jensen's complexion darkens even more when he sees this.
Lucius didn't even look at him. He didn't even look at his father, who was standing next to him. He was still his father at the end of the day. He didn't want to touch his father. He hurried out of the family room.
Observing his son walk away without saying anything. In his heart, a bad omen arose.
"Lucius, pay attention!" Elder Jensen screamed. With his frail body, he follows him. He noticed his son approaching the gate. "Lucius, don't make your move now, that old bastard is Elite," Elder Jensen finally said. It's not yet the right time."
His final words are heard by Lucius. He comes to a halt and slowly turns around to face his father. "Don't worry, Father," he said. I'm going to have a quick chat! Having said that, he left the house right away.
It felt complicated seeing this Elder Jensen's heart. "Something has to happen. "No matter how hard you try to stop it," he thought to himself. His gaze finally settles on his brother.
He immediately summoned his servant to attend to his brother's needs. His servants immediately escorted his brother to his room for treatment.
Elder Jensen sighed as he saw this. " I should get in touch with Alicia." "Will she help me regardless of the situation?" I wonder. He made a mental remark. As a result, he goes to his room to have a private conversation.
Something cannot be openly discussed.
Elder Jensen's call was connected with Elder Alicia a few minutes later. He was unconcerned about his privacy in his room.
The room's wall is made of a unique material. It is not possible to spy from the outside. When the call was answered, a stern voice asked, "Why are you calling me?" Jensen."
Elder Alicia, whose face was visible in the holographic image. Elder Jensen's phone call didn't make him happy.
"This b*tch!" She was dead set on marrying his granddaughter to my grandson, Philip, just a few days ago. Elder Jensen was fuming internally as he heard her words.
But He didn't say anything directly. It will not help him. "Elder Alicia, I have a question about our collaboration." "Did you forget about your promise?" Elder Jensen smiled as he spoke.
When she hears that, a vicious glint flashes in her eyes. "This moron was still clinging to his wishful thinking. "What's the point of him becoming Hansen's leader right now?" Within her mind, Elder Alicia cursed him.
"Your Grandson is no longer alive," she replied. "What good is a dead genius?" Elder Jensen's words made her laugh.
"You, s*ut!" Elder Jensen screamed. He couldn't keep his rage in check any longer. She is clearly shifting her position.
Elder Alicia was irritated by his words after hearing them. "Jensen, you need to look after yourself and your family. Please do not drag me into your schemes." Elder Alicia forewarned him sternly. She then hung up the phone.
Elder Jensen clenched his teeth in rage. He couldn't believe his eyes when she abruptly ended the call.
On the other end of the line, Elder Alicia hung up the phone. "If you want to blame someone, do so." Jensen, curse your bad luck," she muttered under her breath.
A sweet voice suddenly reaches her ears.
"Granny!" "Granny!" exclaims her Granddaughter.
When she heard that, she cracked a clever smile. As she recalls Zack. Then she turned to face her granddaughter. Her cunning eyes shone with a bright light. She was thinking about something.
...
<<Zack's point of view>>
Zack was cultivating diligently inside the pod chamber. He had lost track of time because he was so engrossed in his cultivation. He opened his eyes after a few hours.
I checked my wristwatch for the time. "It's been several hours. "I had forgotten about the time." I thought to myself. Shaking my head, I took a casual look around the pod chamber. If I have unrestricted use of the pod chamber. I won't be surprised if I get the next big break.
I will, however, be a little slower than Mountain Liz. I heard that the lockdown has been partially lifted. "Do I need to apply for leave?" Inside, I ponder. But then I remembered the stalker (Hutson). I must be patient.
I sighed as I considered this. Despite this, I tried to keep a low profile. I won't be able to do so because of the circumstances. I can only control myself; I have no control over others. My sci-fi watch flashed with a notification as I pondered it. I took it out to read. " This is a message from Mr. Arthur." As a result, the meeting will begin in ten minutes." I muttered something under my breath.
I stood up from the meditation mat after realising this. I then put it in my storage ring. I stretched before exiting the pod chamber. I looked around to see if there were any other pod chambers. They are empty because no one is using them. I was dissatisfied. Such a treasure squandering here.
I was startled to hear footsteps from behind me. I turned around to look for Ms. Key. "What's the point of staring at these pod chambers?" When I heard that, I smiled embarrassingly. "It was just difficult for me." That these chambers are mostly unoccupied." I gave her a sincere response.
Ms. Adeline Key smiled and looked at Zack when she heard that. "The majority of the students cultivate with elemental stones." It will be more straightforward and efficient. "Because it's related to their affinity," she explained with a smile.
A light bulb went off inside my head. "No surprise! She was staring at me with those inquisitive eyes. "I'm the only one here who doesn't have any affinity stones." I thought to myself.
Bringing those thoughts back to mind. "Mentor, what are you doing here?" I inquired.
Ms. Key laughed when she heard that.
"Ha...Ha..Ha..I almost forgot about it. I've come to greet you for the meeting. It is held on the building's top floor. Students are not permitted to enter with their identification cards. It's not permitted." With a smile, she said.
When I heard that, I nodded to her. "Because there was no mention of a location in that message, she came here."
Then we both proceed to the top floor.
I had this nagging feeling the whole time. I'm not sure why. We took a step inside the lift.
Ms. Key pressed the button on the top floor. The lift arrives at the top floor in an instant.
We both stepped outside as the door slid open. In front of us is a metallic door. It appears to be brand new. As I'm watching it.
"The top floor of the building is reconstructed," Ms. Key said, seeing my expression. It was destroyed the last time after your life-or-death duel."
When I heard that, I nodded to her. I recall a commotion erupting after the glass shattering sounds. The glass structure has been replaced by a metallic structure.
Then she didn't say anything else. She quickly entered the code and scanned her ID, and the metallic door slip opened with a "Creak.." We both went inside.
