Chapter 147 Seeing It Through To The End....

Chiron was expecting an attack like the other times. After all, as far as he was concerned, this world was making efforts to reject him.

All the other times, it had always been a close call to taking his life.

However, this time was totally different.

After all, there were many ways to crush a person. Death was just the quickest.

The elder in front of him, was big and burly in size. His elder robe was indecently left open at the top. Which revealed his thick chest muscles and chest hair.

Even his forearms and Biceps were large. He had a partially bearded face with very thick moustache.

Every thing about him gave an intimidating presence.

However, he had a very pale appearance and large black bags were under his eyes.

It was true that he had been working a lot these past few days, but that was not at all the reason for his.

As far back as anyone had ever known him since he became an elder, he had always been like this.

Chiron looked at him and could tell what the problem was. But at the moment, it was not his business.

Fate had sent this man and the two other cultivators that had forced their way into his home.

He had to defend against Fate.

Chiron was already ready for a fight, but the big man in front stated that Chiron was under arrest.

The big man was called Elder Harden. He was the person in charge of the Bureau for Cultivators within the clan.

He was highly respected and reverend within the clan. And was one of the few elders that had a cultivation level of the middle stage of the cultivation realm.

"Elder Harden!?" Chiron asked with surprise written all over his face.

However, the Elder was not yet done.

"I heard Carla has been with you for these past few days. Where is she?"

As he spoke, Carla approached from behind him.

He took a look at her, and nodded. "Both of you will be coming to the Bureau For Cultivators for questioning."

Chiron and Carla bowed to the Elder and followed him outside.

While the two other cultivators followed behind them.

The bureau for Cultivators was not just a place that handled the economy affairs of the Clan but also its security.

The elder walked in front while Chiron and Carla came behind.

However, only a few steps outside, the elder stopped. Two other cultivators approached him.

"Did you search the house?" he asked.

They nodded.

"Anything!?"

They shook they heads.

Chiron noticed as he turned took a look at them, and frowned.

Elder Harden took one more look at Chiron's house, "bring the servant girl along!"

One of the cultivators bowed, and also went to bring Emma along.

The proceedings to the Bureau for cultivators was smooth.

However, as they moved, Chiron's mind worked fast.

he could instantly tell that he slacked somewhere along the line. He did not know what it was, but he needed a narrative that would suite him.

At least a Narrative with his servants had to be secured.

With Carla, it was easier. Just like he could command the Essence Draining Spider and Hunter with his mind, he could also Command Carla.

But Emma was a different matter.

She did not have a Blood bond with him.

As he thought hard as to what would happen, his mind went in a little state of worry.

He suddenly paused in his steps.

"Huh!? is something the problem?" One of the guards escorting him asked.

However, he did not answer.

The Elder Harden also stopped and turned to Chiron.

Chiron had his head bowed.

Once again, different thoughts swarm in his head, and it hastened his worry.

Things were no longer like before. Right now, he had power. At least, he had enough to be able to break out of this Clan and escape for his life.

And best of all, he could even do it now.

The Elders would surely pursue him, but if he really gave it his best, he might even make it.

In the worse case scenario, he could hasten the birth of the Dragon egg. Use it and the Essence Draining Spider as a distraction as he runs away.

But then again, there was still the Holy church.

And clans had a principle of being quite relentless in their pursuit.

They had a habit of tracking down offenders that nearly always worked.

This was mainly due to the blood tied connection.

But then again, with his knowledge, he could always destroy such a connection.

Yes! He could. It might take time and some specific ingredients, he definitely could.

Thinking this far, his Aura energy was slowly being activated.

Carla noticed this, and was already getting her self prepared for a fight. If Chiron was going to battle, then so was she.

However, he suddenly stopped.

"What am I doing?" he questioned himself.

After all, he had climbed this far with using just his head. Was violence truly the only option?

This question and some others sat well in his head.

Of course violence was a strong defining option, and it was usually very effective.

But then again, human beings had an adaptive nature to them.

Violence may solve the immediate problem, but it did not solve the long term issue.

What's more, breaking out now would mean he was forfeiting the rest of his plans.

This was not what he wanted. After all, he still wanted treasures of the clan, like the Ancestor's Broad sword.

As far as he was concerned, such a beautiful weapon was being abused sitting in this backwater place.

There was also the garden sitting deep underneath the Clan Chief's manor.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered Elder Joules's words: Danger Sharpens the senses and builds the Success of a cultivator.

He cracked a faint smile. Ironically, these were the same words that guided the Path of the original MC of his book.

Even though he was walking a more selfish Path, those words were still significant.

If not that eyes were on him, he would have laughed at himself.

What worry? After all, benefits and risks were of the same coin. He was going to see this through to the end...
