Chapter 739 - An Enemy Among Allies

Patriarch's Chamber, Yule Family, Ocien.

"Things aren't looking good.." The Old man Sun sighed as he looked at the report on his table. It seemed that the people of the Ancient Families were here.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a person appeared in front of him.

The old man calmly glanced at him, and the figure just pushed his hand out. There was a crest in his hand with the words 'Crimson' on it.

"It's been a while..." The Old man calmly stated as he looked at the person and his eyes began to turn serious.

"I went quiet to keep the end of our deal. But, why is that you guys allowed this place to get infested with Demons. You better provide me some answer Old lady, I know you are hearing me.." The Old man Sun snorted.

"Well, Little brother is still sharp as ever.." An old lady's voice sounded as the person took out a transmitter from under his cloak.

"Don't play games with me now, you ask me to lay low and leave everything to you. And, I did the same. Now, look at what you've done to Ocien," The Old man Sun said with a frown.

"The Ancient Families were involved in it. Besides, we send someone to inform you. But, you just said that you wanted to spend your rest of days in leisure until something capable of destroying the Ocean occurred or you found your disciple.."

Old man Sun's face twitched on hearing that. He sure remembered speaking something like that a few decades ago.

"What now? The Ancient Families are here at our home now. Last time I left you guys out of the story when I met those Old Progenitors. But, if they were to come here, I am not sure your Dimensional Pouch could remain hidden under their eyes," He said with a frown on his face. He didn't actually lie back then, but just left out the fact that the First Scarlet Lord actually wasn't a Scarlet. But, he was Crimson.

The two of them had actually shared each other's secrets. That was where Sun became acquainted with the Crimsons. And, the idea to build a force in the outside world came from.

It was then that the Scarlet and Yule Family were set up. And, the Artifact had actually responded to the Scarlet Lord because he was a Crimson. Another one of the Ancient Families which seemed to have vanished from the surface of the Continent long ago.

"Well, I heard it's just some kids.." The old lady spoke in a calm tone.

"You know I am not worried about that. If the bigger fishes follow the little ones, what do you plan to do then? Besides, the Demons are here as well. You have been keeping an eye on them, but haven't made any action to avoid attracting the attention of the other Ancient Families. Does that mean you are going to let the Ocien fall in the wrong hands?" A heavy frown emerged on Old man Sun's face as he spoke.

"Keeping calm is a must. We can't let the past repeat itself. That Year both Crimson and Starfall were attacked, almost wiping the two families out. We still were in a better condition, and somehow managed to build ourselves up. But, for Starfall…"

"Well, one is still left of them. And, he is an awakened as well.." The Old man replied.

"Lithiya's son…" The Old lady's voice seemed to pause for a second, "I am indeed happy to hear about him. But.."

"I know.." The Old man sighed as well. It was very hard for them to make out Max's current standing. It was very hard to fully trust him. Not because he was an enemy or anything, but his current affiliation seemed to be with the Ancient Families.

And, there was someone hidden among the Ancient Family who was pretending to be a friend. But, his presence has resulted in the massacre all those thousands of years ago.

Leaving the Twelve Ancient Families to the current five.

And, unless that person was brought out in daylight, the current number of Ancient Families only might decrease.

This person was obviously a tumor on their side, and had heavily weakened the Ancient Families.

Crimson's had been in hiding for a long period of time, and were trying to rebuild their strength to their previous glory while trying to investigate the true identity of their enemy.

But, nothing major has come to their hand except for the fact that the Storm Family seemed to be the major player in this. Still, if you ask if one family was capable of wiping out so many other families, the answer would obviously be no.

It could only mean that there were some other people from other families who had been providing support as well.

"Anyway, when are you sending Erina to me?" The Old man Sun suddenly asked.

"Well, after listening to you. I have called her back, I never thought that her genes would fully awaken to retrace her ancestors like this after so many years. And, she would be able to wield the artifact. " The Old lady sighed, "I will be removing the seal on her, once it's done, she would have no problem gaining the full recognition of the artifact if what you said is true.."

They had sealed Erina's bloodline after she had failed to establish any connection with the artifact in the early days. This was done so that she could live a normal life in the real world at her mother's request. She didn't want her child to live inside the Dimensional Pouch like the people of the previous generation.

So, Erina's bloodline power was sealed, and her genes had turned to a dormant state just like that of her father. So, even if she somehow came under the surveillance of the Ancient families, they wouldn't be able to recognize her.

As for Wilson, he was an exception.

He was just born different.

Lightning wasn't something that was related to Crimson's in any manner.

You could consider him to be a person of the current era.
