Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 2324

Fade and Yura then returned to their original spots to continue their pursuit of the blade essence.

The two of them exchanged glances.

He reminded her in a low voice, "Be careful when you're comprehending."

"I will. You should be careful as well!" She nodded. She added, "However, everyone here is from a noble and upstanding clan, so even if they have malicious intentions, they wouldn't dare to act rashly. After all, the clan leaders are right outside."

When he heard that, he sighed slightly to himself. Yura was still a kind girl deep down. She underestimated the depth of human greed.

Nonetheless, he did not voice his thoughts out. He merely nodded and replied, "Let's hope so."

After collecting their thoughts, the two of them continued comprehending blade essence.

Right then, Wagner and the others were scuttling back and forth in the valley, looking for a suitable place to begin.

They were all making full use of their time to gather blade essence.

At that moment, Algot and Baxter avoided the crowd. They passed through the bushes and trees, and arrived at a more remote place. "You guys are finally here. How's the plan going?"

A figure walked out from behind a protruding rock and asked them in a deep voice.

Algot and Baxter stepped forward and bowed to the man when they spotted him. They greeted him respectfully, "Master."

The figure waved his hand and told them, "This is a special situation. There's no need for formalities here. Let's talk about the plan."

If anyone else was around, they would have been taken aback upon seeing the man.

That was because the master mentioned by

Algot and Baxter was none other than Monash.

After all, Monash was not from the four Heaven Level Clans, but an outsider who had learned on his own, whereas Algot and Baxter were top-ranking in Tianwu Clan and Juetong Temple respectively. Not only did they know of Monash, they even addressed him as their master. It was a shocking revelation!

However, as the others were all busy assimilating blade essence, they did not notice the strangeness of the three people there.

Algot and Baxter informed Monash of what had happened on the third level.

When they were done, Monash caressed his chin and fell into deep thought.

"You both have already taken the initiative to provoke Fade but he has yet to take action. Hence, we're still unclear as to his strength as of now."

The two lowered their heads.

"Master, why don't we provoke him again? This time, we'll definitely get a grasp of his abilities."

"Yes, we can act right now."

Monash pondered for a while, shook his head, and said, "I required you guys to test him for me as I wasn't on the third level. Since we're here together now, there's no need for that." "Master, do you mean that you will..." Algot trailed off.

"Once the three of us join forces, that kid will definitely die," said Baxter with a warm smile on his face. However, the warmth of that smile belied sinister traits.

Squinting his eyes. Monash said, "The best outcome would be if we could get rid of him immediately."

"That being said, we need to be prepared for the possibility of failure. We need to prepare a path to retreat."

"Retreat? What are your plans, master?" Algot and Baxter peered at him.

Monash waved his hand and beckoned the two closer as he whispered to them.

After hearing what he had to say, their eyes lit up.

"That's an excellent idea. We will definitely succeed."

"As expected of you, master, the plan is foolproof."

Then, the three of them went back into the woods to begin the plan.

At that moment, Fade was still comprehending the blade essence.

Streams of blade essence whooshed towards his sea of spiritual consciousness.

In less than half an hour, he had gotten more than 200 streaks of blade essence. In total, he had assimilated more than 500 streams of martial essence.

As for Yura who was close by, though she had not managed as many streams as him, she had also gotten around 80 streams. It was nonetheless, also a great gain. Contemporaneously, the other people in the valley were not having that much luck.

Wagner, Shamos, and Kelton were strong. They had assimilated blade essence themselves, so they were not slow that time round. They had also acquired more than 10 streams each, so they had close to 50 streams altogether.

As for those of weaker strength and talent, some managed to acquire four streams of essence, while others were still struggling and had yet to assimilate a single stream.

That situation was not out of the ordinary if compared with the previous years. In fact, it might be even better.

After all, there were three geniuses

at the level of 50 streams of martial

essence, namely Wagner, Set

and Kelton. Around seven of the

other martial artists managed acquire four streams each. That result was indeed a cut above the

previous years.

However, the comparison between competitors was a different story.

Those results, when compared to Fade and Yura's, were dismally disappointing.

What's more, they were not that far

away from each other in the valley. The continuous waves of blade essence pounded the hearts of Wagner and the other martial artists like heavy hammers, smashing their pride and confidence to pieces.

"58 streams. I've gotten 58, and it's already too difficult to continue. There are over three hundred streams there!"

At that moment, Wagner was feeling the constant waves of blade essence. His face sank when he compared it to his own.

In other areas of the valley, Shamos, Kelton, and the others all displayed similar expressions.

"Could Yura really possess some treasure?" That thought inevitably drifted into their minds once more.

They were debating whether or not to go take a look at her.

Just then, the explosive sound of positive energy colliding rang out in the valley. Then, the crackling sounds of a fierce fight filled the space.

Everyone there was completely taken aback. They immediately stood up and looked towards the source of the noise.

"It's where Yura and Fade are. What's going on over there?" Wagner's face darkened, and he immediately set off. "Let's go and see!"

The others instantly followed behind him.

A few seconds ago, Fade was assimilating blade essence. Continuous waves of essence, nearing 500 streams, were flowing into his spiritual consciousness. Right as he was about to take it a step further, a stinging pain shot through the back of his heart.

In an instant, his sharp senses had him turn his body and move out of the way of the ambush.

As he turned around, he saw a black shadow brushing past his body, flying over him.

The black figure seemed to be a little surprised that his attack missed. He paused for a while and then rushed to the forest of the valley, attempting a getaway. Fade was not about to let him escape. He gave chase immediately.

Boom!

Torrents after torrents of energy rushed out, igniting a series of volcanic sounds in the valley.

"It's you!" After catching up, Fade

looked at the person in front of him, who was none other than Monash He could not control the look of surprise that flashed across his face. "Monash, you and I have no

quarrel, so why did you ambush me?"
