"You tried to kill me because I fucked a whore? Are you out of your fucking mind?"

The fourth young master yelled at the top of his lungs as he looked at the third young master and his father.

​​

The third young master looked at him coldly and that gaze alone made him tone down his temper and sit back down.

"Isn't it too much third elder? Killing a fellow member of the branch just because of a whore? Is he alright in his mind?"

"You should mind your words, fourth elder. Otherwise, you can check yourself, whether his mind is alright in the field outside. I am sure at least half of the branch would be willing to be a witness for that and confirm whether he is alright in his mind or not."

The fourth elder became silent and tried to say something, but the third elder cut him off.

"Fourth young master, you and the rest of the young masters seemed to have forgotten something. As much as the elves care more about the democracy and the political aspects while ruling, this is the world of cultivation and the one with the stronger cultivation reigns supreme.

My son might have quit the race for the head of the branch, it is not because he cannot even compete or he doesn't know what kind of privilege it is. But he sees it as a responsibility and thought of the branch than thinking about his own well-being.

That is the only reason, you guys are able to compete carelessly now.

Just because you are a bit cunning than my son, don't think you can look down on him and don't keep on pushing that line. There is only so much that he would tolerate and the next time, I am sure your father wouldn't be able to stop him when he decides to use his sword. Because I know I am not going to stop him.

So, only the family head will be your option. That is if you can convince him with the fact that you pissed someone off by stepping on their dignity even though he is your peer and when retaliated you came crying to him for help.

Good luck with that and your future."

With that third elder walked away. But before leaving, the third young master looked at the fourth young master and said.

"Stay away from Aqua. If I see you anywhere near her. I would cut your balls off."

Fourth young master involuntarily held his groin as he trembled in fear.

He went back to his room as he took pills and potions to recover from all the beating he took and felt frustrated by how he got into this mess.

It is true that he started the trend 'bullying the third young master is fun'. But that is just to make the first and second to get distanced from the third and he even has the remedy maneuvers in place. But before he could do that, he already became the victim of the third young master's wrath.

If only he knew that the whore he fucked is someone the third young master liked, he would not just leave her alone, he would buy her off from the brothel and present her to the third young master.

This bloody coincidence almost pushed his plan four years backward.

While he is trying to think of ways to remedy this situation, the word spread all over the city and the elven branch.

Aqua's presence and third young master's long-term involvement with her were completely made public and laid bare in front of everyone's eyes.

She couldn't believe that she fucked two of the five young masters and even became the reason for the clash. As much as she is flattered, she knew that she would be in trouble soon enough.

Even if the young masters didn't get involved, the elders might.

While she is feeling panicky about what to do, Kiran once again visited the brothel and directly entered her room.

"I have a way for you to get away from all this. Do you want to take it?"

"Who are you?"

"Don't tell me you already forgot. It was just this afternoon that we met."

Aqua was shocked and gasped.

"You are fo.."

Kiran stopped her from talking.

"I am not who you think you are. But I can help you get away from this situation. Do you want to get out or not?"

"Yes."

"But I need some of your blood and your arm."

"What?"

"Don't worry, I have a way to heal you as soon as the arm was cut. Your arm will grow back again."

With that, he threw a spatial ring towards her. When she saw the large amounts of spirit stones inside, she gasped once again.

"Just take that as compensation for the whole trouble."

With that, he slashed the hand and collected some blood. Later he gave her a bunch of pills that managed to regrow her hand.

Luckily her cultivation is low and currently, Sam has pills of a decently higher level. It is simple.

She then changed the color of her hair and left the realm immediately. Now she has enough money to cross the realm by paying the fee. So, she took the chance to escape immediately.

Meanwhile, Jwala entered the room. Kiran finished decorating the whole room with blood and placed the arm in the center.

Jwala turned the arm into ashes and scattered them all over the room.

Then Kiran exited and Jwala set the whole room of fire.

All the things were completely burned it looked like a room that someone was burned alive.

While Kiran and Jwala are doing this, Gran and Sia did something else. They visited the first young master who is discussing a business deal with some people in a restaurant.

They left the information regarding the fourth young master's secret house along with some recording crystals.

And at the same time, Sam is adding some more information to the young master's already existing pile of information.

He added the information of aqua and drafted a fake plan which made it seem like all of the fourth young master's actions are completely done with a proper plot in his mind and even the killing of Aqua was done by him. He did so with the fire element so that the blame would go for the first young master who is a fire element user.

As for why the first young master did it, it might be because of the orders that he got from the elders of the family.

The orders were planted by Sam, but now it wouldn't be hard to believe that they were planted by the fourth young master.

Now, after everything was set up, the team withdrew and waited for the things to progress and it wouldn't take a long time.

The first young master went directly to the third young master and showed the information to him and dragged him to the secret house.

There the fourth young master's subordinates who just became conscious were captured and the third young master had his way with interrogation technique, which worked properly.

The information was given and it was confirmed that the fourth young master is the one that is leading this secret house which collects intelligence as for the plans in the fourth young master's room. They don't know about that, because they are not much worth in the whole organization.

The third young master immediately ran out towards the brothel to only find out the smoke emitting room with ashes and the burnt blood marks on the wall.

This made him feel rage and he ran towards the estate in fury.

He directly broke through the fourth young master's residence and started hitting him with his bare hands and this time just the shock waves from the hits destroyed the house walls.

The whole estate woke up and ran towards them.

"How dare you kill her? How fucking dare you? I told you to stay away from her, didn't I. I told you to stay away from her. I told you.. I told you."

Every punch made the fourth young master feel his bones broken.

The fourth elder who came in time tackled the third young master and spoke in a nervous tone.

"We just talked about this a few hours ago. Why are you still coming here for this?" He sounded frustrated and nervous at the same time.

"She is dead. Aqua is dead. He killed her. I will kill him."

He took out his sword and went after the fourth young master. The fourth elder tried to stop him and while he did so, he looked at the third elder for help.

The third elder who stood in the crowd sighed and shook his head.

He has no intention of getting involved. He knew when his son is angry. He wouldn't get angry normally, but once he is angry, there is nothing he could do to stop him. Even he might get injured and after the rage was gone his son would be the one feeling guilty. He would rather deal with the issue of the aftermath of whatever happened later than make his son go through all this.
