“I am from the…” Before the man finished his words he found himself flying through the window, his eyes widen as he looked down below where everyone was looking up at him.

"Don't kill him. We can't afford to kill anyone without knowing anything, that man looked confident that you wouldn't touch him and that might be because of his background." Floyd said as he grabbed my robe, I nodded and vanished from where I was standing.

I appeared right next to the flying man and grabbed his neck "Has your mother never thought you that you shouldn't ever bother someone when they are eating?" I whisper to his ear and he started to tremble in fear.

"Hey isn't that the son of the patriarch?" One of the people who were looking at us said in shock, the other people looked closely as they all gasped in shock.

"It really is him!"

"What is going on? Who is that red haired kid, why is he holding the young master like that?" The people started to whisper amongst themselves. Some of the people even ran away.

I frowned as I heard the people who were talking below us. 'Patriarch? Have I really chosen the wrong target to pick on again?' I thought to myself.

'How can I be this unlucky! Fuck this world everyone I have come across has some strong backer behind them!' I yelled in my own head/

'Relax kid we still don't know how strong this kid's father is so there is no need to panic, the chances that he is stronger than you is very small but none the less we can't let out guard down, since you have already made a mess of this kid you might as well get rid of him.' I was surprised by the one who said this. The person who said this was the quiet Saria, she rarely spoke to me or to Dyton, only when asked did she speak her mind.

I nodded in agreement 'Indeed what is done is done, if I let him go now he will become an annoys in the future that I am certain of.' I thought as I looked at the man in my hands.

"If you kill me then my father will not let this go, you will definitely die a painful death!" He shouted and I titled my head to the side with a sigh.

"If I let you go. Will you come after me?" I asked him while watching how he struggled to get free.

He hesitated for a while "If you let me go then I will pretend this has never happened." He said.

"Uh-huh...Well, that might be how you feel at the moment but how do I know you're not lying to me?" I asked him in a mocking tone before I grabbed his neck tighter.

"STAY YOUR HAND!" A voice entered my head. I stopped my hand from killing the man and looked around.

I frowned as a black haired middle-aged man entered my sight floating on his own sword.

"Why on earth would she leave without saying anything?" I asked the man in front of me with a frown.

"It might have something to do with what happened to her people a few days ago." The man said as he took a sip of the drink in his hand.

'Damn this woman, she always had a low temper, I but how could she ignore the orders sent by the ancestors like that.' I thought.

A few days ago we got a report about two Emperor ranked cultivators who killed that woman's lackey's, although we could not see their face or appearance due to them being at the Emperor rank, we knew that the reason why two experts like that would come here was because of the Immortals grave.

According to her words and research which she conducted without being told so we found out that they were beasts and not humans so we won't miss them if we see them.

Sigh

"So who do you think will win this year's tournament?" The man who sat in front of me asked me.

"Who else but that bald asshole." I said as a cold light went passed my eyes.

~BANG!

The door flew open and I frowned along with the man in front of me.

"WHO DARES!" I shouted and the man who came n here stopped in his tracks.

"Patriarch the young master is in trouble!" The man said as he went on his knees, my face turned ugly as I had let my energy out to 

check the entire region that was under my control.

As I looked through the region my eyes spotted my son being held by someone like a piece of trash, I looked at the red-haired youth who was standing on his sword in midair. 

'He is at the Emperor rank?' I thought as I didn't know what to do when I saw that my son was in even more pain I snapped.

"NOO!" I shouted in a cold tone and took out my sword. I used my ki energy on my sword which started to release a white aura and stood on top of it and with a thought I moved my sword forward and in an instant, I left the castle and went towards the direction where my son was being held.

When I saw that I was not going to make it, I sent out a telepathic message in a hurry.

'STAY YOUR HAND!' I said to the man and he stopped at the last second, I let out a sigh of relief that he stopped and started to collect my thoughts before I entered the youth's sight.

"Who are you?" The youth said in a cold tone looking at me with his yellow eyes. For a split second, I felt fear as I looked into his eyes but I calmed myself down first and looked at him with a cold gaze.
