1206 I Don't Care
Grey and the duo faced off when seven Elemental Venerables appeared. The one with the highest cultivation stage was just in the Fifth stage.
When they arrived, seeing the state of the place and the conditions of the Space and Water Elementalists, they turned to the young figure who was standing opposite them.
“What’s going on here?” One of them asked.

“Haha, aren’t you ashamed? Lying against me.” Grey laughed and gave the Water Elementalist a look of disdain. He turned to the seven Elemental Venerables and said, “They attempted to kill me, but are too weak, so I’m returning the favor.”
Grey’s words might be simple, but everyone understood the underlying meaning behind them. If you join the fight, as long as I’m stronger, I will definitely kill you.
“My young friend, you came to our world to train and hunt for treasures. With your strength, I believe you must have gotten a fair amount of treasures. There are few places you will feel any form of danger. Why don’t you let them go?” An Old man in the group said.
He was in the Second stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane, but when speaking, everyone looked at him with respect. Grey guessed he might’ve been a big shot while the others were younger.
“You’re right. There are few places I feel any form of danger. But I’m a principled person, as long as I sense any form of killing intent from anyone, I’ll strike back.” Grey spoke to the Old man in a respectful manner.
The Old man thought about it and looked at the duo, the Space Elementalist was already on his last leg, the Water Elementalist didn’t look good either. From his assessment, it was obvious that Grey had beaten them to this state. He turned to look at Grey, and he could barely see any form of injury on his body.
Other than his clothes which were destroyed and his disheveled hair, he would have thought Grey only came here a few seconds ago.
‘How did they get entangled with such a figure?’ The Old man thought to himself.
He understood what Grey meant. To be honest, most Elementalists are like this. If they sense anyone as a threat and are stronger than them, they would naturally want to take that person out with any chance they get. He also had such a character.
“Are you willing to offend all of us just because of your vengeful attitude?” A middle-aged lady snorted coldly, “Kid, you better do as he says and let them go.”
Grey chuckled when he heard the middle-aged lady’s words, he turned to her and said, “I should be the one asking you that question, are you willing to offend me because of them?”
The lady snorted when she heard Grey’s words, she hated the pride with which he was using to speak. From Grey’s words, it was clear that he didn’t put them in his eyes and it infuriated her, not just her, but the others as well.
Of all seven who just arrived, only the Old man didn’t seem to have any sort of reaction to Grey’s statement.
From Grey’s attitude, he didn’t think he was clouded with pride, rather, it was the utmost confidence in his abilities. Any Elementalist with such confidence in their abilities are frightening figures.
One of the things that made the Old man cautious of Grey was the fact that, against seven people, Grey still showed no signs of backing down. He still wanted to do what was on his mind. That alone was enough to tell the Old man that Grey was not scared of them. In fact, there’s a possibility that he would be able to kill all of them if they teamed up against him.
‘How did such a monster get conceived?’ He looked at Grey, and almost wished he was his son, or even grandson.
Having such a fine character as a child was something to be proud of.
The Old man placed his hand on the shoulder of the man who was in the Fifth stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane and shook his head. His motive was obvious, don’t get involved in this.
The man was shocked by the Old man’s intentions.
“Fa…”
The Old man shook his head once again, not letting the man finish his words.
The man nodded and moved to the side.
Now, the Old man and the man in the Fifth stage of the Elemental Venerable had separated themselves from the other five who had the intent of attacking Grey.
“Arthel, what’s the meaning of this?” The middle-aged lady asked.
The man, referred to as Arthel replied, “Myself and my father will not involve ourselves with this.”
The middle-aged lady was about to speak when a man in the Third stage stepped forward, “You and your father have always been cowards, I’m not surprised you’re afraid of a little boy.”
The Old man and Arthel didn’t respond to whatever they said and moved even further away from them.
The Water Elementalist looked at the Old man with a serious gaze, to be honest, if he had made the same decision, they wouldn’t be in such a predicament. Unfortunately, they were clouded by greed and got involved in the battle. Although they were tricked at the start, it didn’t change the fact that Grey actively wanted to stop the battle.
The Space Elementalist had been able to regain some strength, “Kill him, I’ll reward you heavily.”
At the moment, his eyes were glued to Grey’s spatial ring, there was something in Grey’s ring that could heal his current state, he wanted it.
“Get his ring. That’s the best way I can recover. Cut off his hand if you have to, just get his ring.” He said to the Water Elementalist.
“What if he tricks us again?” The Water Elementalist still had fear from the last time Grey gave them a ring.
“I don’t care!”
