The Rise Of Purple Phoenix - 18 Now Thank Me!!

As Lloyd reached the meeting, he saw his father sitting at the top and on both sides, there were 10 elders.

They were all had white hair. They were from his grandfather’s generation.

As for his grandfather, he left for close cultivation and gave his position to his son, Alder.

The elders were waiting for the mortal who beat up an origin stage cultivator.

But when they saw Lloyd, they didn’t move their eyes from Lloyd. The even third elder looked at Lloyd as he saw him for the first time.

“Are you really Lloyd?” one of them said.

Others also waiting for a reply. For what they know, Lloyd was deemed to be a trash who couldn’t cultivation.

But today, Lloyd was standing before them. What shocked them was his cultivation at peak origin stage. Even Alder looked at his son weirdly.

Just a few days ago. He personally checked his son. Lloyd only just reached origin stage. He thought that his son will take his entire life to reach peak origin stage but today in less than a month, his son reached peak origin stage. He couldn’t believe it.

Lloyd saw all elders including his father looked at him. He also felt qi released from the elders towards him. They searched him from top to bottom, inside to outside. He felt being naked in front of them.

At last one elder asked him a question.

“yes, I am really Lloyd Fenix. Second son of clan master. Don’t tell me elders forget about me” Lloyd said while looking at the elders.

Just as he said it, the door opened and two men came in. one of them was injured with face messed up while other is carefully holding him and helping him walk.

Of course, the injured one is Bernie Fenix. He was beaten by Lloyd to this state.

“Bernie!!” the third elder called and he came towards Bernie and carefully examined him.

Seeing Bernie, Lloyd understood what he was called for.

He turned towards his father and clan elder and said, “father, being an idiot is not a crime, so don’t punish Bernie”

Hearing this, Elders looked at Lloyd in an amused face. While third elder and Bernie looked at him in hatred.

Bernie thought, ‘this bastard!! At first, he trashed me to a pulp and now calling me an idiot’

“are you trying to be funny?” the third elder looked at Lloyd and said with visible anger in his eyes.

He wanted to chop Lloyd to pieces for what he did to his grandson.

“third elder, you should be thanking me but why are you getting angry” Lloyd said looking at third elder with a confused face.

One must reach peak earth stage to become an elder. They are the next strong warriors of the clan after clan master. His father is at early sky stage. so he knows that he can’t defeat any of them. he must use his brain to escape from this problem.

“YOU” the third elder screamed and almost lost control.

The third thought, ‘you almost killed my grandson. Look at the state he is now and you are expecting for thanks from me”.

Alder didn’t say anything. He wanted to know how his son handles this.

One of the elders looked at Lloyd and asked, “why should third elder thank you”

He heard many reasons for beating someone up. But this was the first time he saw someone ask another party to thank him for beating them up.

“For curing his disease,” Lloyd said while a look as he done a noble mission, he continued, “normally I could have asked for fees. But since you are my cousin, I did it for free. But now, instead of for thanking me. You are causing trouble for me”

“what disease” the elder asked.

“memory loss,” Lloyd said and continued, “Bernie lost his memory a few hours ago. He can’t even remember me. Elders, you now that I am famous in the clan but he forgot about me. Then I helped to remember. Otherwise, who knows what may happen”

Hearing Lloyd words with sincerity, elders looked at Bernie for confirmation.

“elders, he is telling lies. Who beat someone up to help them. Please find justice for me” Bernie said while crying.

“I am lying. You know that I have proof. I have beaten your face to increase blood flow to the brain and help you remember.” Lloyd said.

“YOU!!!” Bernie said while looking at Lloyd.

“WHAT PROOF” third elder asked Lloyd.

“the guards at the gate can justify for me,” Lloyd said while looking at the third elder.

“someone fetch the guards” Alder ordered.

After a few moments the guards appeared before them. They were shaking in fear. The people before they are the ruler of the clan. One moment of displeasure and they will not know how they died.

“can I question them?” Lloyd asked.

“go for it,” Alder said.

Lloyd looked at the guards and ask, “when I first came to the gate, what happened?”

The captain of the guards looked towards Lloyd and said, “when young master Lloyd came. We didn’t know he was the young master. So, we refused entry”

Lloyd could see captain visibly shaken and may faint at any moment due to pressure. He was just replying without thinking.

With an evil smile, Lloyd asked, “when did Bernie come?”

“just when we were deciding to ask for higher-ups to confirmation about young master Lloyd being a clan member. Young master Bernie came”the captain said.

“then you asked Bernie about me, right? What did he tell you?” Lloyd continued

“yes, we asked young master Bernie. He said he didn’t know young master Lloyd” captain said.

All the elders listened with interest.

“when did he say, I am Lloyd Fenix” Lloyd asked. This is the key point.

The captain looked towards the elder and said, “after young master Lloyd beaten up young master Bernie, he said he is Lloyd Fenix”

hearing this Lloyd knows he won. He looked towards the elders and said, “there you have it. Bernie lost his memory and after my treatment, he remembered. Those injuries are the side effect of the treatment. Now you know it, then come on thank me”.

Hearing this Bernie puked blood and fainted. The third elder held his fist tightly. Blood can be seen flowing from his fist.

He left the hall carrying Bernie.
