Sam, Giyon and Grivon spent three days dealing with the rcenary group. But now they got so leads that are even more confusing.
One of them is a young man whose identity that even the rcenary group doesn't know about. The other rcenary group is targeted by a woman and she turned out to be a woman that belonged to another small organization, but she was also found dead by the ti they went searching for her.
As for the third organization, it is a rcenary group that did this by themselves. They are trying to suck up to Mari Clan as they originally operated within the area controlled by the clan.
Now they pissed soone off there too bad that they had to run away. They ca to the Gaja Clan's territory, learned about Sam and wanted to sell so information off back to Sivan so that they could have their place secured back in their old territory.
So, this eliminated one of the possibilities.
But when they ca back, they t with so surprise that made them feel a bit overwheld.
The whole Gaja Clan is filled with a chaotic festive atmosphere. The youngsters of all levels of cultivation are training rigorously and a large-scale venue is being prepared in the middle of the estate.
When they went to Giyon's residence, Gail is waiting for them with the news.
"A large scale competition is being held. A tournant for every cultivation level with the Astral Plane.
We are going to select the best from every category and the whole group is going to represent Gaja Clan."
"Represent in what?" Grivon asked in a hurry as he rembered all the commotion. Every mber of the Gaja clan's younger generation looked so pumped. He felt like he missed out on sothing big.
"One of the biggest tournants of the century. I haven't seen a competition of this scale for hundred years and even then, the competition was held by the youngsters of the various sects and clans by themselves without the involvent of the managent of the organizations.
But now, the Tri-Volcano Sect took it upon themselves to organize a large scale tournant for the younger generation of all the major powers throughout the realms.
Many organizations on par with the Gaja Clan are going to participate. Even organizations that we barely heard of are going to co."
"Really? Why is a tournant of such scale suddenly being conducted out of nowhere?" Giyon asked Skeptically, while Grivon looked visibly excited.
"The Tri-volcano sect, Star eye sect and Yavan Clan discovered a new realm by chance. They said that it is a realm that was connected by a dormant wormhole to another realm that was already in control of all three organizations.
Recently the dormant wormhole opened up and from what they described, the realm is a treasure trove with all kinds of resources.
They said that it is also connected with several other stray realms.
The three organizations knew that it would be hard for them to keep it to themselves as it is not the gateway is not that far away and so skilled space elental formation masters might even be able to open up a one-sided space gate, once they learned of this with so tries.
The resources also seed to have appeared too varied for their liking, so they decided to share the realm between the younger generation of all of the organizations.
They will conduct a tournant and the winner of every category of the tournant will be winning so spectacular prizes along with part of the territory within the realm.
They can keep the prize and if the prize is the permanent allocation of the territory, they can keep it as well, but as for the territory that is offered along with the prize, it can only be used by the winner temporarily for a decade.
After the decade another tournant will be held and the winners will get the territories once again. This is to make sure that no one hoards the resources completely and everyone has an equal opportunity.
This is going to be a legendary tournant and the first tournant is obviously going to be rembered as one of the best in history.
Everyone who won now would be recorded in the history books."
Gail explained with a smile as he looked at his nephew and daughter.
"I will pass. I am not interested."
Giyon rejected without a second thought.
Grivon was stunned.
"What the hell? Are you sure about that? Why would you miss such a tournant? It is…"
"Because I genuinely don't care. I have my own thoughts and I don't need the help of a tournant like this to leave my na in the history books.
Anyway, this thing doesn't align with my goals. But I guess you can go."
"Of course, I am going. I am going to be the best of my category and I will win every prize there is."
Gail smiled and said.
"Good thing that you are excited. I was worried that I would have to leave without any company from you guys."
"What? You are going?" Giyon was a bit surprised.
"Of course, not just . Even Gamin and Yuvana are going. We are going along with the Clan's leader. To be the security for the participants. Jyon is also coming with us since she is also excited to et people from different places."
While they are all talking, Sam who didn't care about any part of this left to et Saran.
"We found so clues, but only one of them is slightly warm. The rest went cold. One group is not even here to deal with the kids."
"Why did you guys go by yourselves? I could have sent my subordinates to deal with this."
"No need. All you need to do is care about your children and your wife. I will handle this."
Sam said resolutely.
Saran looked at him with a frown.
"I know that you are trying to help. But this is freaking out. You are caring way too much for a doctor that helped us as a part of the transaction. It is at least understandable that we are the ones that are overly affectionate to you.
Why are you acting so affectionate and taking so many risks for us?"
Sam stayed silent for a mont and took a deep breath.
"I know you are worried. But your children…
I just don't want them to suffer the consequences for just being born. They are innocent just because they are born special."
"Why are you so sure that they are going to suffer so consequences?"
"I was not sure until the lightning hit and the hill started stabilizing the condition of your kids. Do you think that nature and the world are so kind that it would give such a great coincidental service that helps you?
No, the world and nature might be generous with what they offer, but they are never kind. The lightning strikes on the hill might even be the work of soone for all we know.
It was way too similar and way too beneficial to be close.
And when sothing like this happens all of a sudden, there is no way you guys are the only ones that would know about childbirth. Soone knew and saved them, which ans, there is a possibility that many others knew.
The search parties that ca only increased my suspicion…."
Sam almost vented every thought he had regarding these kids.
"Sam, they are my kids."
Saran interrupted him in the middle and looked at him in a confused state.
"Of course, they are your kids, I know that. They are lucky that they have a loving father like you and an even more loving mother like her. It helps that you guys are strong too. But things wouldn't go the way we liked.
But I just want to be sure.
If my speculations turned out not to be just speculations, things would be way too dangerous and if sothing big enough to even cross the parents as you happen, there is no saving them.
No kid deserves that.
I just want to make sure that no matter what problem it is, it could be nipped in the bud."
"We are in Gaja Clan Sam. I know that things are not always great here. But I do believe that if push cos to shove and sothing that you dread really cos, the clan would side with and my kids.
Even if they are not kind enough, they will think of the glory and talent the kids hold and will help save them.
This is not the first ti the clan has united to protect one of us."
"I hope you are right. But from what I know, there is no such thing as unification in an organization like yours. You are like parties ford by rcenaries when the interests are aligned. You will never have a united front and in the cases like your children who are almost nothing now, but they hold sothing that could make them sothing in the future, interests will never align.
So, take care."
With those words, Sam left the room with a heavy heart.
