SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

Chapter 161: A letter from Yang Family

Sacred Deity Sect...

In the dimly lit hall of the volcanic castle, carved in the vast volcanic mountain for secrecy...

An imposing gathering of the Clark family's upper echelons sat around a massive obsidian table.

The air was thick with the scent of burning incense, which did little to mask the underlying tension. At the table's head, Lady Clark, Kent's mother, clad in her ceremonial black and gold robes, presided with an air of icy command.

All the members were silently offering prayers to their ancestors. Beside Lady Clark, her old father, the current patriarch of the Clark family, sat in solemn gaze.

Anjan, a towering figure with skin as dark as the volcanic rock surrounding them, approached quietly. He held a jade slip, the glow from its intricate carvings casting eerie shadows on his face.

"Lady Clark." Anjan's deep voice resonated through the hall as he bowed, presenting the slip with both hands.

Alma's eyes sparkled with a rare intensity as she took the slip. As she read the message, a smile, both proud and enigmatic, curled her lips. The room fell silent, all eyes on her.

"What is it, Alma? Any good news?" her father, the venerable patriarch of the Clark family, asked. His voice, though aged, carried a heavy concern.

"Yes, father," Alma responded, her voice reverberating with a mixture of triumph and foreboding. "I just found out my son has the divine elemental body, like his father. I need to allocate resources to nurture his elemental Dao."

A murmur of excitement buzzed through the room. The patriarch leaned forward, his eyes gleaming with a mix of pride and anticipation. "That's truly wonderful news! If we can protect him for another decade, he will become a powerful magus, capable of leading our family to new heights."

The guardian sun is shining brightly in the middle of the sky, and peak master Porus, who is sitting at the edge of the cave, is drenched in sweat. But on the other side, Kent sat still without any movement.

Afraid of disturbing Kent's awakening, Peak Master Porus sat silently while guarding the cave. On the other hand, he received a communication request from peak master Shreya asking for Kent.

After hearing that Kent is perceiving elemental Dao, peak master Shreya didn't ask for any more details.

"This boy created a lot of headaches in one day." Peak Master Shreya sat inside the administration hall while the old lady provided the list of people asking for Kent.

"Madam, I already sent the best of your disciples to treat those people. But some of them are asking specifically for Kent. The third concubine of the Mintleaf family offered 1000 spirit stones for Kent's service. All these families were allies of our sect. We can't deny their requests." The administration lady replied in a worried tone.

Peak Master Shreya held her head in frustration. She cursed herself for not stopping Kent when he treated the first lady before her own eyes.

"Forget about Kent, he can't be here now. I will make an exception and personally treat those ladies." Peak Master Shreya declared, getting up from her seat.

"But, madam, I don't think it solves the problem. They only want Kent." The administration lady spoke in a hesitating tone, feeling shy to reveal the pleasure healer tag of Kent.

"What do you mean?" Shreya asked with a confused look.

But before the administration lady replied, a servant came and bowed before Peak Master Shreya. "Master, a family member of the Yang family came to visit you. He carried a letter containing the patriarchal seal of Su Yang the Seven." The servant declared without lifting his head.

Worried that something might have happened to Amelia, peak master Shreya instructed the servant to quickly bring the Yang family member.
