Affinity: Chaos Chapter 1788 Grave Mistake?

1788  Grave Mistake?

This world doesn't seem to be aware of the space element. The thought of this brought ecstasy to Grey's heart. He originally wasn't a hundred percent sure that he could deal with Peak Sovereigns here even though he wasn't on the same level as them, but now that he knew that they didn't have any knowledge of the space element, then he would be able to use the element of surprise to always be able to get away from them if he was ever caught in a tough position. With this thought in mind, Grey became even more relaxed.

"Oh, it's just a trick. Don't think too much about it." Grey chuckled while his eyes darted around, searching for another jug of tea. Unfortunately, he didn't see another jug. Sir Xavier's eyes bulged as he heard Grey's words. He stood up, and walked in Grey's direction. Seeing him, Grey didn't move, standing in the same spot, waiting for him. Sir Xavier stretched his hand towards Grey, "Kid, I don't care what games you're playing, but I'm not in the mood for all these." As he did this, he didn't forget to try to use his cultivation stage to try to suppress Grey. Grey looked at the approaching hand, and with a simple movement, he ensured that he wasn't touched by Sir Xavier's palm, while creating a distance between them. "You…" Sir Xavier was shocked by the fact that Grey was able to ignore his suppression. He didn't even think about how he tried to use his aura to oppress Grey a few minutes ago and the latter ignored it and went on to make the jug disappear. The disappearance of the jug made him forget about how Grey disregarded his cultivation stage suppression. The shock he received for the sudden disappearance was just too great. He knew that the only reason Grey could ignore his suppression is due to either being stronger, or having a treasure that could help deal with this. If Grey had a treasure that could ignore a Third stage Sovereign Plane Elementalist's aura suppression, then it was definitely created by someone in the Late stages of the Sovereign Plane, at the very least.

Sir Xavier's eyes twitched as he heard Grey speaking. He was still in the middle of trying to show Grey that he was superior, yet the other party acted like he didn't exist, nor did his words mean anything. His body started to shake from the anger of Grey's actions. Being pushed to the limit, he attacked.

Now, like the Blue and Black Protectors, Sir Xavier was scared of recklessly attacking Grey. If Grey had a Seventh stage Sovereign behind him, then his background might not be ordinary. Sir Xavier's background seems extraordinary, but in truth, he wasn't better than a normal member of the Raging Flames Faction. Even though his father was the City Lord of Raging Flames City, it didn't mean that his influence in the Faction was high. The best members of the Faction weren't bothered with the task of having to manage a City. The only reason his father even got to be the City Lord of Raging Flame City, is due to his relationship with a top member of the Faction. This member was the one who assisted him in securing this spot, and he used his wisdom to increase his strength, getting to the Seventh stage of the Sovereign Plane. After entering the Seventh stage, Sir Xavier's father got even more influence, which made it possible for him to leave the management of the City to his son. The Raging Flames Faction didn't care about who was in charge of the City, as long as their monthly benefits were brought to them. "I only waited for you to settle the matter with the McCall Family. I don't want to ever hear that they're bullied again." Grey looked at Sir Xavier and started to list what he wanted from him. He knew that he wouldn't be here for a long time, and after leaving, he will most likely not ever appear here again, so he wanted to make sure the McCall Family were safe. Of course, he wouldn't go out of his way. If the entire secret world wanted them dead, all he could do was throw out some threats and help the McCall Family hide or escape. Sir Xavier's eyes twitched as he heard Grey speaking. He was still in the middle of trying to show Grey that he was superior, yet the other party acted like he didn't exist, nor did his words mean anything. His body started to shake from the anger of Grey's actions. Being pushed to the limit, he attacked. Sir Xavier was a Fire Elementalists. A red fire bird appeared and charged in Grey's direction. "Huh?" A surprised exclamation rang out. Grey, who was still listing what should and shouldn't be done to the McCall Family, didn't expect that a fire bird will suddenly e at him. Stretching out his palm, he tried to grab the fire bird ing his way. "Foolish!" Sir Xavier sneered as he saw Grey attempt to grab the fire bird. If Grey had tried to retreat, then there was a chance for him, but since he couldn't, then there was no point. A look of satisfaction appeared on his face as he saw this, he could already imagine how Grey's hand was blasted off. The expected explosion didn't happen, rather, to the surprise of Sir Xavier and the two Protectors, Grey grabbed the fire bird and snuffed it out. It was as if he didn't seem scared of the flames. Sir Xavier's eyes bulged out, and only now did he decide to check Grey's cultivation level. As his mental energy gushed out, he tried to sense Grey's depths, but to his shock, he couldn't. This meant only two things, either Grey was stronger than he is, or if he had a treasure that could hide his cultivation stage. Since Grey could stop his attack this effortlessly, then it meant that Grey was the strong one, and he didn't have any treasure on. At the thought of Grey being stronger than himself, Sir Xavier started to sweat. It's one thing that he was still negotiating with Grey, but now, he had attacked the latter. If Grey decided to retaliate, then they were in trouble.
