Chapter 331: Aida’s Transformation

“A mysterious powerhouse?” Hearing this news, the atmosphere in the room instantly froze. Gary and the eldest elder of the Black Phoenix Clan asked anxiously!
Everyone else also grew tense, pricking up their ears to listen. Lilith, Heiyin, and Heiyao looked at Sognar with confusion and a hint of blame—in their eyes, Sognar was causing trouble again.
Entering the Wolf Clan’s territory meant going where the Wolf Emperor resided. Didn’t he know how dangerous it was? This was pure recklessness—a life-threatening risk. If they had been there, they would have stopped him. It was regrettable that he still took the chance to do such a thing. He was always acting willfully and causing chaos.
“I wish I hadn’t said anything!” Sensing their gazes, Sognar pouted and said gloomily. He knew he’d get scolded for saying that, and it seemed he was right.
“Hurry up and tell us!” Seeing Sognar still complaining, Lilith glared and snapped.
“Why be so fierce? It’s just a quick look. This is important news!” Startled by Lilith’s glare, Sognar dodged to the side. Lilith had instilled too deep a fear in his heart.
“We don’t know who it is. They only say that six days ago, this person suddenly appeared and encountered a Wolf King. There was a fight, and then—”
“The vibrations from the battle attracted other Wolf Kings, who all showed up. The Wolf King involved was defeated and fled. When the second Wolf King stepped in, he too was repelled. Just as the third was about to fight, the Wolf Emperor appeared, exchanged a few blows with that person, and drove them away!” Head bowed, Sognar recalled carefully.
“The Wolf Emperor intervened in the end? And that person still managed to escape?” This news was no ordinary thing. Both Gary and the eldest elder of the Black Phoenix Clan exchanged glances, sensing something extraordinary.
What did it mean for the Wolf Emperor to step in? And yet he didn’t defeat that person—instead, let them escape. What did that imply? At the very least, that person’s strength far exceeded the Yin Huang realm and even reached the Yang Xuan realm! Such battles were only seen among those at the Yang Xuan realm.
It had been a thousand years since a Yang Xuan realm powerhouse emerged from the Source of Darkness. Now, with the Wolf Emperor stepping in and another Yang Xuan realm warrior appearing, it was inevitable for speculation to arise. This matter was becoming increasingly complicated.

No one else is aware of this person’s presence yet. If they find out, it’s likely to cause another wave of excitement! He has once again disrupted the current situation, making things even more complicated.
Perhaps this conference won’t be so simple after all. What would happen if this mysterious figure appeared again?
“Keep this news under wraps for now—don’t tell anyone. Also, intensify efforts to figure out who this mysterious person is! Hopefully, we can get some information!” Gary said in a deep voice with a sigh.
The others also lowered their heads in thought. It was unbelievable that no one knew anything about such a powerful individual. Could it be some ancient being famous for a thousand years? That seems unlikely.
“Alright, everyone, go investigate separately. Be careful! Tomorrow, I’ll try to contact the Scorpion King’s clan. Lilith, you go talk to the demon opposition and see what they think! Let’s gather some information first!” After pondering for a moment, Gary made new arrangements.
…
At that time, inside the residence of the demon opposition, a young girl stood in the courtyard, feeling the cold air, her gaze wandering aimlessly.
“Miss, it’s getting cold. Let’s go back!” an old man standing behind her spoke softly, watching her distracted expression.
“It’s not cold. We’re much better off than where they are, right? I wonder how they are now!” The girl sighed softly, her thoughts drifting away, her heart no longer here.
“Don’t worry, miss. Lord Rod is extremely powerful. He has even reached the Yin Yellow realm. In the whole world, only a handful of people can harm him! With Miss Lucy’s support, no one can threaten them. Their safety is guaranteed!” The old man glanced at the girl with a caring look in his eyes before speaking after another sigh.
Ever since the girl learned that Rod and Lucy had entered the Death Battlefield, she had often been like this—without her usual smile, increasingly lost in thought. It seemed she was truly deeply involved.
This girl was Aida. Rod hadn’t told her when he went to the Death Battlefield. But given the opposition’s strength, it wasn’t difficult to track someone’s whereabouts. Eventually, they found out where Rod was, but they never expected him to go to that terrifying Death Battlefield.
Could something be wrong with him? Why didn’t he tell her? Why take Lucy with him? Why hide it from everyone?

Is his strength not yet sufficient and does he still need training? Does he need to train in such places, or seek something specific? Lucy couldn’t figure it out. Rod from the Realm of Dim Yellow already stood at the pinnacle of the world—why would he still go to those places people avoid and take risks there? Didn’t he know she was worried about him?

“Well, maybe I’m overthinking it!” With another sigh, Aida spoke to herself in self-mockery. Flowers have intentions, but water remains indifferent—sometimes human emotions are just like that!

“Is there any movement on Eileen’s side?” Taking a deep breath, Aida continued to ask.

“Miss Eileen has been quite active lately, seemingly trying to gain support from key members. But don’t worry; everything is under control, and it’s impossible for her to pose a threat to the young lady!” Speaking of Eileen, a hint of pity flashed in the old man’s eyes as he said with emotion, “Eileen shouldn’t be against the young lady, but why did things really escalate to this point?”

It seemed that ever since Rod appeared, problems arose between Miss Aida and Miss Eileen. Miss Aida had always been trained by the old family as the heir, even traveling to the continent years ago to study and gather information, handling matters independently. But during those years, the grown-up Miss Eileen began to develop jealousy and a desire for power. When Miss Aida returned, the two appeared to get along, but in reality, they were at odds. He was aware of this.

However, it wasn’t his place to interfere. Fortunately, Miss Aida was quite magnanimous, turning a blind eye to Eileen’s actions and ignoring them.

Who would have thought that Rod’s appearance would change everything? After Rod appeared, Miss Aida’s heart was entirely focused on him! Yet Miss Eileen went so far as to harm Rod.

As a result, Miss Aida stopped tolerating it and began to fight back. The leadership of the family should rightfully belong to the young lady. She had refused to compete before, so she didn’t argue with Eileen, but now she started to fight for it—fighting for Rod. A silent war erupted within the opposition faction, a war between the two young ladies.

Especially recently, it had become even more intense. Miss Eileen showed her ambition and began to pressure Miss Aida. Watching the two young ladies fight, this old man felt the greatest pain, as he had raised them both and didn’t want to see either of them hurt.

“Keep an eye on her actions and control the people around her! I don’t want any accidents, especially during this conference! Eirwen seems to have close ties with the war faction. She thinks they can help her deal with me and gain control of our family’s rights? Nonsense! Keeping such a threat around is dangerous! If she really does that, where will our opposition have a foothold left? A lot will fall into the hands of the war faction. She’s too naive!” Ada sighed helplessly when talking about her sister.

But soon her gaze turned sharp again. “If Ada does anything outrageous, don’t hesitate to take action if necessary!” She was well aware of what Eirwen had done to Rod and had reached the limit of tolerance. If she continued to cross her limits, even her own sister couldn’t be spared any more.

“Pardon my intrusion, but since you and Miss Eirwen are sisters, there might be other ways… Besides, the family head favors you. No matter how hard Miss Eirwen tries, it’s useless—she doesn’t know much about many things. She’s just wasting time. There’s no need to take it to heart! She’s still young, right? And didn’t you used to be uninterested in power? That’s why you left the Source of Darkness to hone your skills outside. But why now that you’ve returned…” The old man frowned and couldn’t help but ask what was on his mind.

“Some things change. People keep evolving! Life is unpredictable! Sisters? She never treats me as her sister, not even for a moment. If that were the case, I wouldn’t care so much! But do you still not know what she’s done? Enough, I’m tired. I’m going back!” As Eirwen spoke, disappointment appeared in Ada’s eyes—true love brings deep pain!

Watching Ada leave, the old man let out a long sigh. “Shadow, keep an eye on Miss Eirwen’s movements. You heard what the young lady said—do you know what to do?”

After a disturbance in the calm air, a head appeared—strangely eerie! It was masked, and its face couldn’t be seen. “Yes, don’t worry about Miss Eirwen! Number Two just reported that she seems to be meeting the second prince of the war faction tonight. I’ll go investigate!”

“Be careful yourself. That Gu Yi isn’t an easy opponent. Don’t get exposed!” Hearing Shadow’s words, the old man paused, took a deep breath, and spoke.

Soon, a disturbance was heard in the air before it returned to calm, as if nothing had happened! That figure disappeared! Only the old man remained, looking up at the sky before walking away after a long while.
