Chapter 396 The Key to Obtaining the Secret Treasure

Caspian was momentarily stunned after hearing what Xandros said.

He thought that Xandros was cracking a joke.

The Eldorian Scroll fragment was a highly–

coveted item in the traditional martial arts sphere. Xandros was actually going to pass this treasure ove

r to him?

He was not even close with Xandros. They had only met two or three times.

Caspian could not comprehend how Xandros could trust him so much that he would pass the Eldorian

Scroll fragment to him.

“Stop playing with me, Mr. Stewart Senior. The Eldorian Scroll fragment is a treasure that’s coveted by

everyone. Why don’t you just keep it for yourself?” Caspian asked, seemingly

confused.

He was doubtful about what Xandros had said. This old cunning man. He was already over a

hundred years old.

Who knew what he was scheming?

He could just be rambling away without meaning what he said.

Caspian was being precautious. If it were

someone else, they would’ve been elated to be able to obtain the Eldorian Scroll fragment.

“Little rascal, do you think I’d harm you? I can’t use it for myself.

“Our ancestors have set rules for us. We aren’t allowed to use the Eldorian Scroll fragment; we can onl

y protect it. Besides, the Eldorian Scroll fragment isn’t in my hands. It’s at the ancestral cemetery,” Xan

dros scorned.

He was perplexed as well. Why did his ancestors choose to do something like this?

If the Eldorian Scroll fragment could be retained for their family’s own use, they could improve their stre

ngth through some practice.

“You can just hand the Eldorian Scroll fragment over to the

villagers. They’re all people of the Stewart family estate; they must be trustworthy.” Caspian remained

adamant in not believing

Xandros.

Strictly speaking, Caspian was only an outsider. It was not fully appropriate for him to obtain the Eldoria

n Scroll fragment.

“I’ve thought of that before as well. But these villagers are just ordinary people. They can’t possibly pra

ctice using it,” Xandros said, feeling rather frustrated.

Xandros was extremely despondent. The Stewart family had been established for hundreds of years, b

ut they were gradually dwindling.

These villagers had never even been exposed to the traditional martial arts sphere. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Caspian seemed unwilling to accept it. This made Xandros even more disheartened.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely be extremely excited.

“The Eldorian Scroll fragment is at the ancestral cemetery. Even if I want it, there’s nothing I can do to o

btain it!” Caspian said.

“Fine! I know what you’re thinking. I’ll just be straightforward with you.

“The reason I’m giving this to you is because you’re Willow’s husband, which makes you part of the Ste

wart family. Moreover, you’re really powerful, which means that you can protect the Eldorian Scroll frag

ment.

“If this Eldorian Scroll fragment were to remain here in the Stewart family estate, it’d only bring catastro

phe to the village,” Xandros said.

He knew that if he did not make it clear, Caspian would continue probing until the end.

“Do you still have the engraved emerald pendant I gave you the last time?” Xandros asked.

“Of course,” Caspian said as he took the pendant out of his pocket.

“This emerald pendant is very important. You can only obtain the Eldorian Scroll fragment if you have th

is pendant with you.

“Otherwise, it’ll be useless even if you have millions of soldiers with you,” Xandros said in a serious ton

e.

Hearing this, Caspian cursed in his heart.

It turned out that Xandros had already planned everything.

“I can’t believe you deceived me, Mr. Stewart Senior,” Caspian said irritably.

Xandros laughed.

“It’s your fault for being so powerful,” Xandros said, smirking.

It was at this moment that an earth–shatteringly loud sound was heard.

Xandros’s expression hardened. “Something’s wrong. There seems to be something going on at the an

cestral cemetery!”

As soon as he finished his sentence, Xandros got up immediately and was gone in the blink of an eye.

He moved at the speed of light.

Caspian was stunned. Was this person even a centenarian?

Even an innate grandmaster would not be this fast.

Even though Caspian had been on the

battlefield for many years, he had never seen anyone with such speed before.

When he finally came back to his senses, he rushed out as well.

“Mr. Lynch, what happened?” Aster and Avery shouted urgently when they saw Caspian run

out.

“What are you waiting for? Follow me,” Caspian yelled loudly.

He caught sight of Xandros‘ figure and ran after him.

Even the traditional martial arts experts at the Stewart family estate noticed that something

was wrong.

Everyone began running toward the direction from where the loud noise was heard.

Less than a thousand meters north of the Stewart family estate was a tall mountain. It was

called Mount Evercloud.

That was the cemetery of the Stewart family. Any member of

the Stewart family would be buried there when they died.

The loud noise that was heard earlier had come from the mountain’s direction.

At that moment, many boulders were rolling down from Mount Evercloud.

Nixon had also appeared on Mount Evercloud with four thousand experts. Standing next to him was Ho

race. His arm had been bandaged.

Since he had always been pretty powerful, he was no longer in a critical condition.

Nevertheless, he had lost an arm forever.

“This is the cemetery of the Stewart family?” Nixon asked, frowning.

“That’s

right. The ancestors of the Stewart family estate were all buried here after they died,” Horace replied de

ferentially.

“It seems like the Eldorian Scroll fragment is around here somewhere!” Nixon said thoughtfully.

Horace took a few steps back. His face was filled with resentment as he looked at Nixon.

Nixon did not regard him as an equal. Ever since he got injured, Nixon had been acting all

Suddenly, hundreds of figures appeared in the distance.

They were all wearing masks. They looked mysterious.

“Shadow Gate!” Nixon said through gritted teeth.

Nixon was the head elder of the TMAA. He had heard of Shadow Gate.

The people from Shadow

Gate must be here for the Eldorian Scroll fragment as well. The mission to snatch the Eldorian Scroll fra

“I

guess the people from the TMAA are also here. It has become more challenging for

us to snatch the Eldorian Scroll fragment,” Gilbert said when he noticed Nixon and the others.

The TMAA and Shadow Gate had always been at odds with each other.

This time, both sides wished to obtain the Eldorian Scroll fragment.

Moreover, other forces had also appeared. It would be really difficult to obtain the Eldorian Scroll fragme

“According to my investigation, the people of TMAA have a conflict with Caspian. Caspian

boasts himself as the leader of the alliance of the Southern forces. This has offended the

TMAA.

“In order to scare Caspian, they’ve already destroyed Azure Flames and Skyfeather Pavilion.

“However, what

came as a surprise was that Caspian cut off one of Horace’s arms and even obliterated thousands of ex

“This is getting interesting! I can’t believe Caspian has enemies everywhere! Does he have enmity with

Gilbert laughed.

He suddenly figured that Caspian must be something. He had

enemies in Dhord City; he had offended Shadow Gate; and now, even the people

from the TMAA wanted to look for him.

It seemed like the entire Diatoran was filled with Caspian’s enemies.

“It seems like the Eldorian Scroll fragment is around here. We have to be prepared!” Gilbert

instructed.

More and more people had arrived at Mount Evercloud.

There were almost tens of thousands of people on the mountain.

Even the Morrison family from Dhord City had come.

There were ten people from the Morrison family. The leader was Jyn Morrison, the young lady

She was the most brilliant one among the younger generation of the Morrison family. She had already b
