Ancient Tears BloodLine - Chapter 1375
Capítulo 1375: The bait worked
From MC’s Perspective
Dry Summit City
The Purple Mark Guard continued to press his leg down. The old man coughed up blood. He was already in terror. Now he thought the chances of escaping were low.
“Get back to the hotel,” the Purple Mark Guard shouted at Zack Lockwood.
Hearing that, I wiped the blood from my face and nodded to him.
Swoosh!
The next second, I used the Lightning Phantom Movements. A dark purple lightning bolt moved towards the main road in a flash.
After coming to the main road, I found there was a lot of movement from the people, so I stopped using the technique and started running on foot.
The use of the flight ability would attract the public eye. If I used a cab service, the chances of getting attacked were higher.
I had already come across two Purple Mark Warriors. If there were more, I wouldn’t be surprised. My perception was active.
Not long after, I found a few auras following me from behind. But they were far away, and their auras were not that threatening.
So, I continued moving towards the hotel. It didn’t take long for me to reach it. I saw the same size crowd in front of the gate.
I was wearing a mask. I hurriedly walked through the gate, pushing people aside. The people were Black and Silver Mark Warriors.
After pushing them aside, I arrived at the front gate. The guards recognized me and opened the gate for me.
I entered and walked up to the hotel door.
“Hey, he is the masked man who appeared earlier.”
“Who is he?”
“We don’t know the identity of the masked man.”
The people outside started to discuss. Especially the people who were pushed aside; they were annoyed.
“Hey, could he be Zack Lockwood?”
“It’s not possible. The masked man is a Silver Mark Warrior.”
The warriors voiced their opinions. Among the people present, there were a few warriors sent by the ten warrior families.
The other few warriors had already been killed by Zack earlier. The news was yet to reach their families.
The people who followed Zack Lockwood earlier arrived in front of the gate. They suspected that the masked man was Zack Lockwood.
Upon coming here, they heard similar conversations. The family warriors looked at each other.
Though the hotel was jointly run by the ten warrior families, they couldn’t go inside to cause trouble for Zack Lockwood.
Because it would be all over social media. Then Star University would provide assistance.
So, they had no choice other than to wait there and report to their higher-ups.
When the higher-ups of the different families heard the news, they told them not to go inside the hotel.
After hearing the orders, they continued to wait outside. Even the elders of the Lark Family told the warriors not to attack Zack Lockwood.
Meanwhile,
Inside the hotel room, I locked the door and went to the living area. Then I sat cross-legged on the floor. I started to run the incomplete ancient healing method.
The coercion from the Purple Mark Warrior earlier had hurt my internal organs.
As time passed, the healing energy healed the internal injuries. Even the superficial injuries on my outer body were gone.
I didn’t get up but continued with the practice.
On the other other hand, the Purple Mark Guard handed over the captured Purple Mark Warriors to the prison elders.
They took the prisoners on the aircraft back to Star University. Before leaving, the Purple Mark Guard checked for survivors.
He found out that Zack Lockwood had killed all ten warriors earlier, including the Silver and Gold Mark Warriors.
He had never seen a single Silver Mark Warrior hold this record. He doubted whether anyone else from the other top 10 factions could do it.
He then went back to the top of the hotel and started making reports. Their trip to Dry Summit City was fruitful.
Not only had they uncovered the illegal fighting arena and captured criminals, but they also managed to lure out many warriors, including two Purple Mark Warriors.
They were going to rot in prison cells now. After making the report, he sent it to Dean Jerome.
The Klein Family had suffered a loss this time. The Purple Mark Warrior sent by them was nowhere to be seen, as if he had disappeared all of a sudden.
Their target, Zack Lockwood, was still living in the hotel. No one was targeting him. The illegal activities of the families were exposed.
They were afraid that Star University might take action against them. Even their ally, the Lark Family, was not involving their men directly to deal with Zack Lockwood.
It had pissed off the Klein Family big time. They had helped many warrior families in their times of crisis, yet no other warrior families were turning towards them right now.
The Klein Family Head was getting offers from Dark Shadow University and Giant Tower University. These two forces were enemies of Star University.
If he decided to cooperate with them, it would be doom for his family. If Dean Jerome learned about it, the Klein Family would be wiped out first.
The Klein Family Head was not stupid enough to accept offers from an enemy university.
They could only wait for the next opportunity. Maybe if Zack Lockwood caused problems for the interests of these families, then they wouldn’t hesitate to attack him.
…
The following day,
I opened my eyes. My eyes flashed with a sharp glint. The pain all over my body was gone. I looked at my skin; even the superficial skin injuries were gone.
Then I stood up and went to bathe. The bath lasted for 20 minutes. I walked out and changed into comfortable clothes. I went to bed to rest.
Meanwhile, the Purple Mark Guard didn’t pry into Zack Lockwood’s room. He knew about Zack Lockwood’s healing technique.
He thought Zack Lockwood was okay. Now he was waiting for Dean Jerome’s order. If Dean Jerome gave them the order, then they could go to the next city.
Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
