Ancient Tears BloodLine-Chapter 1417: Meeting Masters!

From MC Perspective

"Where have you been?" Austin asked.

This was the question he had long wanted to ask. He had asked Faction Leader Clifford earlier, but the Faction Leader himself wasn’t aware of the news. Dean Jerome hadn’t told him.

"I was practicing inside a secret land. I didn’t know which secret land it was," I said to him.

Hearing that, Austin completely believed it. He felt the aura behind Zack Lockwood was stronger to begin with. Then he thought of the masked man. He looked into Zack Lockwood’s eyes.

He didn’t know whether it was okay to ask the question or not. Though Zack Lockwood was his disciple, he still hesitated. In the end, he decided not to talk about it.

Time went by.

He changed the topic. They started talking about his other disciples. Zack Lockwood was yet to meet his other disciples.

Unfortunately, when Zack Lockwood was not here, they were assigned to the warrior camps.

Now, they were part of the elite battlefield.

Not only were his disciples assigned, but the disciples of other main elders and faction elders had joined forces as well.

However, the elite battlefield was only for warriors of Gold Mark Level and above.

On the other hand, my heart was stirred. I didn’t expect so many changes to happen here during my absence. No wonder Dean Jerome wanted me to go to the battlefield tomorrow.

I immediately thought of the secret land. I thought Dean Jerome was opening the dangerous secret land as a reward for these warriors.

I didn’t tell him about the secret land, but I revealed the news to him.

"Master, I’m going to the warrior camp tomorrow," I said to him.

"What?" Austin was taken aback.

He didn’t expect to hear such shocking news. He took a few seconds to calm his heart. Then he connected the dots. Since every disciple was fighting in the warrior camp, Zack was no exception.

"You have to be careful. I don’t know whether you are the masked man or not, but the people who don’t like you would use this opportunity to attack you," Austin said. After saying that, he looked into Zack Lockwood’s eyes to see any reaction.

But Zack Lockwood was calm and collected. How many times had he seen this reaction? He had still not figured out whether his disciple was the masked man or not.

"I will be fine, Master," I replied.

Austin shook his head before asking, "Show me your lightning force."

Hearing that, I smiled and circulated the purple lightning force around my body. Purple lightning bolts appeared above my palm with a crackling thunder noise.

Austin’s gaze turned solemn. He had given his disciple a Purple Lightning Seed. He thought that the lightning force was powerful even without the lightning seed.

Now he was confident that Zack could deal with his enemies. That tiny lightning bolt could injure a Gold Mark Warrior.

A few minutes later,

I left the residence, walked out of the Golden Lightning Palace, and headed to the Healing Palace. On the road, I came across some familiar members.

They were seniors and juniors from the other palaces. I had interacted with them before breaking through to the Black Mark Level. I glanced at them before continuing my walk.

A middle-aged Black Mark Warrior felt he had seen this person before. He paused his footsteps and tried to recall.

Suddenly, his mind jolted awake. He recalled a figure in his mind who fought warriors from other factions and maintained an undefeated streak.

He knew the rumors of that person becoming a Silver Mark Warrior recently, but no one had seen him after that. It was as if he had disappeared from the campus.

"Was it him?" the middle-aged man thought.

The next second, he turned around and looked toward the person. The person’s back exactly matched Zack Lockwood’s, except for the shoulder-long hair and tanned skin.

A look of understanding dawned on the middle-aged man. His heart was stirred. Now he was convinced that person was none other than Zack Lockwood. He was back.

The middle-aged man couldn’t stand still. He wanted to inform others about Zack Lockwood’s return. Recently, their Thunder Flame Faction had been facing attacks from all sides.

It was all because of the masked man. Now that Zack Lockwood was here, these people would think twice before attacking the members. Zack Lockwood would definitely intervene.

The next second, the middle-aged man left the place.

...

Healing Palace

I entered the premises unannounced. Then I headed directly toward Master Ann’s residence. As I got closer, I heard the voices of female warriors.

Then I heard the voice of Master Ann. Their voices were coming from the back garden. I headed straight toward the back garden.

When I got there, I saw Master Ann sitting together with the female warriors. They were members of the Healing Palace.

My gaze fell on Master Ann. She stopped talking and looked ahead. Her eyes immediately recognized Zack Lockwood.

Swoosh!

She disappeared from her seat. The next second, she stood in front of Zack Lockwood. She looked into Zack Lockwood’s eyes and face. She realized he was indeed her disciple.

She asked, "What happened to you?" and "When did you return?"

The female warriors were in shock. They had never seen their Master lose her composure before. Then they saw the young warrior with long hair. They didn’t recognize him at first glance.

"Master, I have returned from the special training. I’m going to the warrior camp tomorrow," I replied to her.

Hearing that, Ann was shocked to the core. She was meeting her disciple after a long time; she didn’t expect him to go to the warrior camp tomorrow.

She then understood something. Since all the elite warriors were at the warrior camps, it was the right time for Zack to appear. Otherwise, everyone would think Dean Jerome was favoring Zack Lockwood.

On the other hand, the female warriors were dumbfounded. They heard the person addressing the main elder as Master, yet they didn’t know of such a person. But the old members guessed something.

Their expressions changed drastically. Not many male members were in their healing hall, but one person was different. He was part of both the Golden Lightning Palace and the Healing Palace.
