Chapter 232
Chapter 232
Yale sighed while thinking how many innocent people had suffered due to that True Empire and their conspiracy to conquer the continent .
It was easy to imagine that Mercer wasn't the only one who suffered in the hands of the traitors . If Yale hadn't interfered, that kid would have lost his father, his both arms and probably his mother in the hands of the True Empire .
No one knew how many kids experienced the same situation, but no one stepped ahead to help them .
Everyone else was also angry with those traitors and silently supported Yale . However, they didn't speak as Lar did before; they had no power to confront those two traitors and didn't want to turn into a burden to Yale .
"Mercer, do you want to become my disciple?"
Yale's sudden offer shocked Mercer and all the others who heard him . Mercer had a trashed bloodline and hadn't even reached the 1-star Mortal Rank; he was just a normal mortal, a normal kid without good prospects to the future .
His only good trait was his personality; since he lost his father he had shouldered everything even being so young, and the unfairness he and his mother were treated wasn't something easy to endure .
If instead of enduring he had lost his patience and attacked those two traitors, they would have been able to kill him and justify it; that was the fate of a lot of kids in the outer area due to being unable to swallow their pride . Of course, even if someone kneeling and forgot about any pride like Mercer, those traitors still planned to make them suffer .
"I want! Disciple pays respects to master!"
Mercer didn't know who Yale was, but he accepted without hesitation the offer . Yale had saved his life without having any need to do it, so Mercer had an incredibly good impression of him at that moment .
"Alright, from now on you are my disciple . "
The faces of the two traitors changed because they didn't expect such development . If they tried to cripple Yale's disciple, there was nothing bad if Yale himself interfered and if they acted towards Yale, Lar would act . Acting against Lar was the same of killing themselves, and they didn't dare to do it openly . Yale choosing Mercer as a disciple had put them in a truly bad situation .
Yale walked towards Mercer and used Time Healing on him erasing all the wounds on Mercer's body . The wounds on the body from slight kicks from before Yale's group started hearing the conversation would have healed without help, but those wounds in the face needed powerful healing magic to be healed correctly .
That was something that shocked the traitors even more because they already thought that the kid would have the face deformed for his whole life because there was no way a powerful healer would come to heal someone like Mercer .
"Thank you very much, master!"
Mercer was extremely happy when he felt his face returning to normal; he felt that accepting Yale as a master was the best decision of his life .
"Healing, Time Healing, Zhan Clan, Lar's fiancé . You should be that Yale who the Zhan Clan wanted death and some fools of our Larken Clan wanted to protect!"
After seeing Yale healing Mercer that easily they finally connected all the points and discovered Yale's identity . They wanted to help the True Zhan Clan to get rid of Yale, but the fact that those who hadn't betrayed the Larken Clan wanted to support him was something they couldn't ignore at that moment .
"Master! Are you really from the Zhan Clan? Those two had crippled my mother a few minutes ago . If the master can help her, I will do anything master orders me . "
Mercer had heard of the powerful healing powers of the members of the Zhan Clan, so he hoped that Yale could save his mother . He was ready to do anything for saving her, even if he needed to be a slave, he was willing . Of course, Yale didn't plan to ask him anything like that .
"If there are only a few minutes since the wounds, I can heal her, but if more time passes, I won't be able to do it . Where is she?"
Yale pitied of the fates of Mercer and his mother because they had just suffered a lot without any reason due to the selfish plans of the True Empire . If people like them lived or not wouldn't affect their plans . Thus, those acts were just because they were delighted torturing those who they didn't consider worthy of living among them .
"She is inside the house, but . . . "
There was no need to end the sentence because those two traitors were in front of the door .
"You are dreaming if you want to enter . You need to wait a few days until someone investigates the situation, and in the weird case she was innocent, you can heal her . "
Those two had smug smiles on their faces; they would at least avoid that Yale healed that woman .
All the members of the Larken Clan in Yale's group looked to those two traitors with disdain because that was too shameless . A few days later she wouldn't be able to be healed .
"You punished her before any investigation, given the rules of the Larken Clan and your current words, you two shall kill yourselves right now . So, let me pass, or commit suicide . You have two options if you don't want to break the rules of the Larken Clan . "
The faces of those two turned grim because doing an investigation after a punishment had already been applied was illegal and without investigation the couldn't stop Yale .
"You are courting death!"
A sudden attack went towards Yale, but he blocked it easily with the Space-time Judgment Sword .
To avoid problems, Yale didn't want to kill them in Larken City, but if he ended killing them while defending, he didn't mind either .
At that moment, Yale was trying to activate the Origin Sword Bloodline again, but he wasn't able to do it .
"You drew a sword towards my son; I hope you are ready to die!"
Yale jumped backward, grabbed Mercer, and retreated towards the place where the other members of the Larken Clan were looking the conflict .
However, the man who appeared rushed directly towards them and killed them all without any compassion .
"You all trashes deserved that! You weren't members of our True Larken Clan!"
The man laughed while returning to the side of his son and his nephew . That man was at the 9-star Master Rank, extremely near to reach the Elder Rank, so killing everyone in Yale's group was extremely quick .
"Why did you kill all the talented members of the younger generation of my faction! You even killed Lar! You won't be able to leave alive!"
At that moment Lar's grandfather and Herken arrived, and both were full of hate seeing all the corpses on the ground .
"They were all traitors who tarnished the name of our Larken Clan, you shall also be investigated for that, or maybe you shall kill yourself for being unable to control your members?"
That man was sure that no one would intercede to kill him given his background, his own father had the same strength of Lar's grandfather, and now that everyone was dead they couldn't investigate if they were traitors or not .
However, at that moment, all the corpses disappeared, and everyone was still there as alive as before the man attacked them .
"What . . . "
Everyone exclaimed at the same time when those who should be dead resurrected mysteriously .
"I am sorry, but you are unable to kill us . "
Powerful time ripples surrounded Yale as he spoke, he had activated Absolute Protection just after reaching the place where the others were . Everyone felt the pain of death, but they were still alive thanks to Yale's manipulation of time . Having felt the pain of death affected their mindsets a lot; they didn't have even the slightest doubt about traitors being inside the clan and their resolution to train increased a lot .
"Those time ripples are incredibly powerful, and that control of time is something incredible . I think that at least the quality of his Time Bloodline should be at the same level as Lar's Sword Bloodline, but his control over it is far higher . "
Lar's grandfather was truly shocked after sensing the time ripples surrounding Yale; he was able to comprehend that Yale had played with time to make all their death inexistent .
At that moment, Lar's grandfather nodded inwardly because with such skill even himself didn't dare to say that he could kill Yale . Of course, he didn't know that Yale couldn't use it freely .
"Oh, it is my annoying grandfather . Those two guys are traitors who were abusing their power to cripple those of the outer clan, and their father is also a traitor who killed all those men of the outer clan . They should be put into arrest immediately . "
Lar's grandfather could just smile wryly when hearing his granddaughter calling him annoying, but he didn't doubt her words, she was telling the truth, and the others were lying .
"You three are all arrested under the suspicion of having betrayed the Larken Clan . Any show of resistance will be considered as treason, and you be killed on the spot . "
When Lar's grandfather uttered those words, the three traitors didn't know what to do because under investigation they would be discovered and if they resist they would just be killed .
