Chapter 1179: Chapter 1179: Campbell Family Grand Elder

"Manager Justin Campbell, how about I lend you three hundred thousand top-grade original stones first? Just return them to me later. I can hardly wait to know the origin of that sword and pill," an old man in the VIP area said to Justin Campbell.

This old man had also bid on the ’Grade One Return-Life Pill’ earlier, but due to limited finances, he was unable to win the auction.

"I have two hundred thousand top-grade original stones here too, which I can also lend to the Campbell Family first."

"The reputation of the Campbell Family, I still trust it... I can also lend three hundred thousand."

Following that, two more people spoke up.

Eight hundred thousand top-grade original stones, just like that, were gathered together.

Clearly, they were all eager to find out the origin of that sword and pill, perhaps they would also have the chance to obtain treasures like the ’Grade One spirit sword’ and ’Grade One Return-Life Pill.’

Just as Justin Campbell was speechless, not knowing what to do,

A voice came from afar, growing closer and closer.

"Thank you all for your kindness... but, I think the Campbell Family does not need to borrow top-grade original stones from you."

Accompanying this voice was an imposing old man.

The old man walked on air, with every step perfectly blending with the entire world, a testament to his exceptional cultivation.

"Head Master!"

As soon as the old man appeared, Justin Campbell respectfully bowed to him.

Head Master?

Hearing Justin Campbell’s words, everyone present was taken aback.

The one referred to as ’Head Master’ by Justin Campbell seemed to be only one person.

Head Master Campbell of the City of Peace Campbell Family, Zac Campbell.

"Greetings, Head Master Campbell!"

"Greetings, Head Master Campbell!"

...

For a moment, people present greeted Zac Campbell, their voices filled with awe.

Zac Campbell, besides being the head of the Campbell Family, was also an extremely powerful figure, rumored to be at Level Eight of the Martial Emperor Realm, and his comprehension of the ’Ominous Secrets’ was also exceptionally profound.

Even within the entire Campbell Family, he was one of the top figures!

Unlike the enthusiasm of others, Wyatt Barnes remained calm and tranquil when he looked at Zac Campbell.

As if the old man appearing in front of him wasn’t the leader of a ’first-class power,’ but an utterly common decrepit old man.

As Wyatt Barnes sized up Zac Campbell, Zac Campbell was also observing him.

"Sire, on behalf of the Campbell Family, I must apologize for the earlier incident with Liam Campbell," Zac Campbell said with a slight smile.

"If apologies were useful, what would be the point of martial practitioners cultivating?" Wyatt Barnes replied, surprising the crowd as Zac Campbell apologized to him, almost making them spit blood.

The venerable head of the ’first-class power’ Campbell Family was apologizing to you, and you weren’t appreciative?

"This..."

Wyatt Barnes’s response left Zac Campbell at a loss for words, and it took a while before he could ask, "Then, sire, what do you suggest?"

"The two auction items I consigned at your Campbell Family’s auction house sold for a total of eight hundred thousand top-grade original stones... So, if you make it up to one million top-grade original stones, I’ll reluctantly accept your apology," Wyatt Barnes said.

Harsh!

As soon as Wyatt Barnes finished speaking and before Zac Campbell had a chance to react, the thought of ’harsh’ already crossed the minds of most people present.

Although they did not know the specifics of the conflict between Wyatt Barnes and the Campbell Family members.

Now, with Wyatt Barnes’s words demanding the Campbell Family to produce an additional two hundred thousand top-grade original stones as a formal apology, it seemed to them far too ’harsh.’

What surprised them was that when Head Master Campbell, Zac Campbell, snapped to his senses, he simply laughed heartily, casually taking out a Storage Ring and handing it to Wyatt Barnes.

"Here are one million top-grade original stones... Eight hundred thousand belong to you as the rightful earnings. As for the additional two hundred thousand, consider them as compensation."

Zac Campbell smiled at Wyatt Barnes, "Sire, now that you and our Campbell Family have cleared the air... may I inquire as to your identity and origins?"

"Let me verify it first."

Under Zac Campbell’s astonished and awkward gaze, Wyatt Barnes took the Storage Ring Zac Campbell handed to him, recognized it as his own with a drop of blood, and then carefully inspected it.

"Correct, it’s one million top-grade original stones."

After a while, Wyatt Barnes confirmed it and finally nodded in satisfaction.

Wyatt Barnes’s actions involuntarily made the corners of the mouths of the people around him twitch.

Was this guy really worried that the Head Master of the Campbell Family would deceive him?

"Sire, now you should tell us the origin of that sword and pill you consigned," someone eagerly asked, as soon as Wyatt Barnes put away the Storage Ring given by Zac Campbell.

For a moment, everyone’s gaze, except for Winnie Romero’s, including Zac Campbell and Justin Campbell’s, fell on Wyatt Barnes, clearly curious about the matter.

To others, it was about whether they would have the chance to obtain treasures like that sword and pill in the future.

For Zac Campbell and Justin Campbell, this was about the identity of the young man in purple.

"This naturally wouldn’t... hmm?"

Just as Wyatt Barnes was about to say ’this naturally wouldn’t be a problem,’ it seemed he suddenly noticed something, interrupting himself and simultaneously looking towards the eastern sky.

"Who’s there?!"

As Wyatt Barnes looked towards the eastern sky, Zac Campbell also noticed the commotion, his complexion darkening, his robe fluttering without any wind, rustling loudly.

Moments later, a figure dressed in a blue robe with silver trimmings appeared, a burly old man with a sinewy beard.

At this moment, the old man’s face was dark as thunder, and his eyes, as large as gongs, seemed as if they could shoot fire.

Upon seeing the bearded old man, Zac Campbell was startled. "He... has he come out of seclusion?"

"Who killed my son ’Liam Campbell’?"

Before Zac could recover, the bearded elder had already arrived above the Campbell Family’s auction house, and his voice boomed down like thunder, filled with extreme rage.

"Liam Campbell?"

Wyatt Barnes raised his eyebrows, guessing the identity of the newcomer.

Previously at the auction house backstage, a Campbell family member wanted to privately seize his "Grade One spirit sword" and "Grade One Return-Life Pill," was first crippled by him, and then killed.

He still remembered.

At the time he killed Liam Campbell, Justin had mentioned that Liam was the only son of the Campbell Family’s Grand Elder.

From this, the identity of the bearded old man was self-evident.

The Grand Elder of the Campbell Family!

"Grand Elder, why have you come?" Zac took to the air, looking at the Grand Elder of the Campbell Family with a frown.

"Head Master, today, even if I were no longer the Grand Elder of the Campbell Family, even if I had to leave the family, I would not let go of the person who killed my son ’Liam’!" the Grand Elder said in a deep and angry voice.

He had just come out of seclusion today and learned of the death of his son right after.

For a time, he felt his chest burning with uncontrollable rage.

Many of the elders had already explained to him the whole story, and even told him that the background of the one who killed his son ’Liam’ was not simple.

However, seeing the body of his only son and enduring the pain of ’a white-haired person sending off a black-haired person’, how could the Grand Elder of the Campbell Family swallow this grievance?

He rushed to the Campbell Family’s auction house at the first opportunity.

"Grand Elder, why must you do this?" Zac couldn’t help but smile bitterly when he saw the elder’s resolve.

"Head Master, today, even if his background is extraordinary, I must kill him! After I kill him, I will announce my departure from the Campbell Family, so as not to implicate the family," said the Grand Elder in a low voice: "Anyhow, I must take revenge for my son!"

"Grand Elder, what if I must stop you?" Zac’s expression became severe.

In his view.

Today, no matter whether that young man in purple was a match for their Grand Elder, once the Grand Elder made a move, the Campbell Family would suffer the loss.

If the young man in purple was not a match for their Grand Elder, and the Grand Elder killed him, it would be the same as hitting an iron wall, and he could only leave the Campbell Family to wander the world in exile.

Thus, the Campbell Family would lose a ’pillar’ of strength.

If the young man in purple was stronger than their Grand Elder, and the Grand Elder died, the Campbell Family would still lose such a powerful member.

Therefore, all he wanted now was to stop their Campbell Family’s Grand Elder.

"Head Master, you cannot stop me."

The Grand Elder of the Campbell Family glanced at Zac, saying lightly.

"Grand Elder, whether or not I can stop you, I will try... If possible, I don’t want the Campbell Family to lose you," Zac inhaled deeply and said solemnly.

"In that case, I will not hold back!"

The Grand Elder’s eyes chilled, in a swift movement like the wind, he shot towards Zac like lightning, so fast that most people present could not catch a glimpse of him.

In their eyes, the Grand Elder of the Campbell Family vanished into thin air.

Soon after, the Head Master of the Campbell Family, ’Zac Campbell,’ also disappeared.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

....

A series of rolling explosions came from above, triggering vast waves of air that whipped up fierce winds raging in all directions.

Wild winds swept across the land, causing the robes of the group including Wyatt Barnes to flutter and rustle.

"Why are the Grand Elder of the Campbell Family and the Head Master fighting each other?" asked many onlookers, astonished at the sight of the figures occasionally appearing and crossing each other in the sky.

"It seems that someone killed the son of the Grand Elder of the Campbell Family... He has come looking for the person who killed his son. However, the one who killed his son seems to have an extraordinary background; even the Head Master of the Campbell Family is apprehensive."

"I heard as well... Judging by the Grand Elder’s words, even if he kills the person who murdered his son, he plans to leave the Campbell Family afterward, clearly worried about implicating the family."

"I wonder who that person is."

....

Many people were discussing amongst themselves.

However, they were unaware that the ’person’ they mentioned was standing right next to them.

"Martial Emperor Realm Level Nine? It seems the Head Master of the Campbell Family is likely to be defeated," Wyatt Barnes muttered to himself after watching for a while.

Almost as soon as the words left his mouth, two figures appeared in the sky, one of them was blasted dozens of meters away.

The other stood proudly in place.

The Grand Elder of the Campbell Family!

"Grand Elder... you... you’ve broken through to ’Level Nine of the Martial Emperor Realm’?" Zac Campbell, the one who had been repelled, was now staring at their Grand Elder in astonishment.
