Then came nighttime where the whole Gibson clan was busy with the party and this was one of the occasions where the commoners are allowed to attend a party of this degree since it about the return of their young clan master.

Everybody was present at the party including the elders and commander derrick who were busy discussing away together with the clan head but Ellis and his crew were not present in the party which leads to a tumor in the party.

" For master Ellis to be absent in a party thrown by the clan head to celebrate his return is kind of disrespectful," said elder Luke with an angry look on his face.

" Maybe he is already on his way" replied commander derrick who was fond of Ellis ever since their time in warberry cave.

" If his brothers could make it on time, then why can't he do the same," said elder Luke.

Just as the two with discussing, Ellis and Ray walk in with jenny following them from behind. Standing in front of clan head Finn as they pay respects before moving to take their sit but before Ellis could take his seat, clan head Finn called.

" While don't you join your brothers and me up here".

" I think I am okay staying with my friends up here" replied Ellis with a smile on his face.

" That is a little bit rude little brother," said Wyatt from the side.

" Just let Ellis be, by the way, ain't you going to introduce your friend to father" replied Simon with a warm smile on his face.

" Please forgive my manners, as you already know this young man by my side is subordinate while the lady by my side is called jenny an official Member of the hunter's guild," said Ellis as he got up to introduce the two.

" Hmm, so there is hunter within our midst" commented clan head, Finn, as he massages his chin.

Hearing that the young master has brought in a hunter into the clan they were stunned and many uproars begin to go on in the place.

" How do you come to know a hunter," asked clan head Finn in a calm tone like it means nothing to him.

" Well that will have to be a story for another time" replied Ellis as he took a sip of his wine.

Meanwhile, Ray who has come together will Ellis was busy helping himself with a drink as he continues to drink away like it is not his busy.

" So little brother do you mind telling us about your adventure out the clan," asked Wyatt as he took a sip of his drink.

" Of course I don't, you see apart cultivating and seeking enlightenment, I also went out on a hunt which is how came to meet miss jenny here. Then there was a time that I was ambushed by some low life that wanted to take my life but it was quite unfortunate for them that things didn't go as they wish" replied Ellis as he gave Wyatt a stare.

" So what becomes of those morons that try to take your life," asked Wyatt as he continues to keep his smile.

" Oh nothing special after exchanging some blow with them they could only end up dead with their body left there for the wild beast to feed on" replied Ellis.

" I heard the news about you joining the hunters guild so why lie to us all," said Wyatt as he switches the topic.

" I don't remember being your subordinate that you can control as you see fit" replied Ellis turning his gaze from Wyatt.

Turning his attention to his friends as they continue to drink while discussing, Brodie who was annoyed by the way Ellis address his master match all the way to the pub that was allocated in the clan, Walking toward a certain customer who was busy drinking all by himself. Taking his seat, Brodie orders a bottle.

" Looks like someone is in a foul mood today," said the man drinking his liquor.

" Master fray your men failed in their attempt to kill the young master and now he is talking to my master like he owns the place" replied Brodie in anger.

" I see, no wonder the clan is in a good mood with fewer people coming too," said fray as he continues to take his drink.

" So how are we supposed to get rid of him now that he is in the clan," asked Brodie.

" That's none of my business, I haven't talked to you how you are going to compensate me for my lost and here you are talking about killing him here in the clan are you out of your mind" replied fray with an angry

" When I paid you for your service, I gave you all the information you need for the operation to succeed so don't put the blame on us when you are the one that do not have the ability to get the job done," said Brodie when he saw fray blaming them.

" Oh, now we are the ones that cannot get the job done okay let me asked you this question Brodie, how on earth did a qi refining stage expert beat a golden core practitioner" replied fray.

" How am I supposed to know that, all I know is before the young clan master left the clan, he was still in the qi refining stage" replied Brodie as he tried to justify himself.

" That exactly what you said and I assigned four golden core practitioners but not even one soul was able to make it back alive so tell me how can you explain this to me," asked fray as he was beginning to boil in rage.

" How am I supposed to know, maybe he runs into some fruition while he was a hunter in Hiepia empire" replied Brodie.

" Fruition indeed, you and that clan master of yours just led my men to their early death and all you can say is fruition," said fray.

" Look master fray the man that is responsible for all this happening is out there drinking while we are barking at each other here, why don't you forward your anger to him instead of wasting it on me" replied Brodie as he was getting tired of arguing with fray.

" Yeah like it is going to be for free, what are you offering for his head," asked fray.

" How about fifty mid-tier spirit stones as the reward for killing him" replied Brodie with a cunning smile on his face.

" That won't be enough for this task since the target you claim to be weak just grew strong overnight making me lose four men and now you are just offering spirit stone as compensating for the task," said fray.

Hearing what fray said almost made Brodie choked to death since what he is using for paying is far greater and rarer than any items in the lower heaven, managing to gather fifty of them after passing through many processes only for the moron before him to reject them like it was of no use to him.

" Master fray I believe you know how precious these stones are to those from the rich home so you can easily earn big after selling off to one of the big family" replied Brodie.

" I know about all of this stuff so stop wasting your breath on persuading me to take the mid-tier for it's not going work on me," said fray with a cunning smile on his face.

" Then tell me what is it you want since the mid-tier spirit stone couldn't catch your eyes," asked Brodie.

" Now you are beginning to talk like the man I did business with, how about your master triple the payment" said fray as he ordered for Brodie to be given a drink.

" Let me tell something you don't know, I may have accepted the request but I will still head back to the courtyard to talk to him and get him to approve of it"replied Brodie as he sighs in relief

" Knowing the kind of man your young clan master is, I find it hard to believe that he won't even hesitate to give the order," said fray as he got up from his seat and headed for the door but before he could take a step outside, Brodie's voice begin to ring in fray ears.

" Hey, fray don't forget to make it quick now that he has not be

given any protector".

" Just get my money ready then we won't be thinking of fighting with you and your young master" replied fray as he walks out of the pub with his hands behind his back.

"Let us just hope it works this time around because I am getting really tired of all this. I better go inform master about what his reward is " said Brodie to himself as he took his drink and left the pub for the party to meet his master.
