The Ancestor looked at Sam’s face as if he wanted to etch the face in his mind. He could never forget that face, the impact that face left on him, the current faction-head and the whole of the beast faction twenty years ago, was not something that could be forgotten easily.
One day, that was all it took to change the man who possessed that face from their best fighter to the worst enemy.
The face that brought destruction to the beast faction, the destruction which is second only to the devastation of the Ancient war.
The lowest point of the beast faction, which lost all resources, disciples, and many other major fighters and barely survived due to its ties with some beast tribes in the Central Continent.
One man dragged the whole faction, a Major power on this planet, to its knees in a single day.
He was not a traitor; he was forced to be a traitor.
The Ancestor turned towards the Faction-head. The face is horrible to look at, there is no majesty of being the leader of a Major power.
There is a reason for that. That one face cast a huge shadow in his heart, it would have been etched in his memories.
His spiritual energy is being riled up, he wanted to make a move so badly, but at this moment, he sensed another spiritual energy fluctuation and when he turned to look, he saw his brother, Sanjay’s uncle looking at him coldly.
He could get the meaning of that look, if he tries to make a move on Sam, then his brother would make a move on him.
Sam didn’t care about their expressions, he looked at Sanjay and said.
"You asked me to come and I am here, I will be leaving if you let me now, otherwise things would get nasty."
There is a weird smile on that face.

"Not really."
They were stumped, they didn’t expect him to be this uninterested.
"Aren’t you the least bit concerned about your birth? Your parents?" The Ancestor asked in confusion.
Sam looked at him and said.
"I can guess most of it." He paused and looked at the Faction-head before saying.
"It seems like some salty ass has dug some holes. I don’t have any kind of relation or memory of my parents. They must have gone before I got a chance to meet with them. Which resulted in my current situation."
"Don’t you feel angry? Don’t you have the desire to know at least?" The Ancestor continued on.
Sam chuckled and said.
"It is better if I don’t know some answers, at least not for now. I will come back one day and the answers will come to me even if I don’t ask."
"Do you think, you can leave this place alive?" This time, the Faction-head said these words with bitter hatred.
"Hahahaha... There is no place on this planet that could stop me from entering and forbid me from leaving." Sam said with an arrogant laugh.
"Kill him." The Faction-head couldn’t stomach this and gave a command, but no one moved, because the aura of Sanjay’s uncle raised and his intentions are clear, he is completely opposed to this.
"Brother, don’t tell me you are going to make a move on juniors with lower cultivation." The Faction-head said sarcastically.
"Shut up." The Ancestor coldly spat and turned towards Sam.
"If you want to leave, you can leave, but there are some people who don’t want you to leave and he happened to be the faction-head, I might be his senior, but I cannot just let him lose face and damage his dignity.
You can leave as long you clear a fair challenge that comes to your way."
He then looked at the Faction-head and said.
"As long as it is a fair challenge, you can make him stay here or even kill her. I owe a lot to him and his father, so you better stay within the rules." He warned the faction-head.
Sam looked at all the Grand realm cultivators who are already perked up and turned towards the Ancestor and said.
"How can I trust you?"
"That is the only thing you can do for now."
"Then do me a favor. Let all of them come at once, I don’t have enough patience."
Ancestor raised his brow and asked.
"There are more than four hundred Grand realm cultivators in Late-stage of Grand realm and all of them are beast cultivators with more than three hundred of them with Beast companions. Are you sure you want to fight with them at once?"
"Who said anything about fighting? This is going to be a massacre, after all, whatever might have happened in the past, I am sure that it is definitely something I wouldn’t like and the whole beast faction might enter my kill list, so it would be better to clear some load off whenever I can."
His words stunned everyone; they are completely laced with arrogance.
As for why Sam wanted the whole Beast faction to be on his list, even though he did think that there is no relationship with the beast faction and his body doesn’t belong to him, he is a bit frustrated now that he guessed some story.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt first, he thought that his parents are dead and someone who doesn’t like them, threw him out of the faction, labeling him as a bastard. He would have left that alone, as it doesn’t matter for him if he lived in the faction or any other place.
But the traitor mark and all the other stuff seemed to be pointing to something else, if his parents aren’t dead, but plotted and killed by the faction, he would definitely take revenge.
Because his current situation as an orphan and the horrible childhood is all because of them, he who could have had the parents love which he didn’t get in his past life.
But if they are still alive, then he wouldn’t have been thrown out and Sam couldn’t have come to this world. The whole situation turned out to be a paradox and he is feeling a bit contradictory.
That is the reason he wanted to leave straight away after some commotion, but this Faction-head is making it hard for him.
He wanted some time to sort out his thoughts, but before that, it is not bad for him to vent some frustration.
He looked at the candidates and said.
"Any one of you, come forward only if you are ready to die. I assure you, it is not the first time for me to fight against this type of large crowd and I came out alive from those battles. I don’t see a reason, why I wouldn’t live past this."
No one answered, they are all hesitating, by this time the people who are not late stages of the Grand realm stepped back.
Sam is fully ready to fight it out with them, he doesn’t have much time, he has to finish this quick. Just as he was about to make a move, Sanjay’s voice was heard.
"No need for that. If you want to leave, just defeat me. If you win, you and Watt can leave and I will send you to the Thunder god temple myself through the space gate. If you lose, you will stay."
Sam looked at him with amus.e.m.e.nt. He doesn’t know why this guy is showing so much interest in him, but he felt that this deal is much better.
Sanjay turned towards the crowd and said. "get out of here."
He didn’t even bother to ask for the Faction-head’s permission.
Sam looked as the people around him evacuated as they took the seats in the audience. He gestured for Watt to stand at the entrance and walked to the center of the Battleground.
He is also a bit excited about this battle, He wanted to beat the crap out of this person since he took Watt away, and now the opportunity has presented itself.
