Chapter 1167 You Or The Family?

"Who's that?" Eleanor asked her mother, she was still comprehending how fast she switched places with Grey before Grey attacked the men.
A group of ten people, with Five in the Elemental Venerable Plane, had reduced to just two in a matter of seconds, and the two left were both missing an arm. It was evident that they had to sacrifice it just to survive the attack.
"He's Grey, your Uncle spoke about him during his last visit." The lady said.
"Oh, so he's the genius Grey." Eleanor looked at Grey in a new light.
She and her Uncle spoke a lot about a certain genius making waves in the Continent during the past year or two. Although Grey doesn't know it yet, his fame was already widespread across the entire Continent. For even the Gnome race to give out the kill order and offer such great things as reward for an individual in the younger generation, it was evident how talented the person was.
The lady looked at Grey, still in awe of his abilities. She was praising the space element a few minutes ago and Grey had just shown her why she was doing that. The space element is the most overpowered element there is at the moment and as long as a Space Elementalist can use it to its best, then that person can be said to be unstoppable among their peers.
Taking a look at how Grey not only got Eleanor out of danger but also took out eight people in one fluid sequence, it was obvious this wasn't the first time he was doing something like this.
The two people left from the group of ten looked at Grey, frightened. They were literally shaking from fear, each of them lost one arm, and they didn't even understand how it happened. What was worse was that it was like the arm was never there. They lost it without being able to fight back.
"Who… who are you?" The young man who seemed to be the leader of the group asked with a shaky voice.
"I'm Grey, you?" Grey replied casually.
The young man wanted to speak but he froze from fear when he heard what the lady said.
"There's no use knowing who they are, just kill them and be done with it."
"No… no… you can't kill me! My father will not let this go if you do." The young man warned.
Grey took a glance at the lady.
The lady saw his gaze and chuckled, "You're the son of the greatest genius the Continent has produced in hundreds of years… hehe, I might have to change that in a few years." After derailing from what she wanted to say, she continued, "You don't have to be afraid of his background."
The lady looked at the young man, moving her gaze away from Grey, "I know you, you're that Mayor's son, correct?"
The young man nodded vigorously, it was as if he had seen a ray of hope. Since the lady knew he was the son of a Mayor of the largest city around this region, she would definitely leave him alone. His father was an Elemental Sovereign, a top expert as well.
"Wait here." The lady vanished before her voice died down.
The duo who had lost an arm clutched onto the rest of the arm, still in shock. They looked at Grey who was standing there casually, not saying a word.
The young man who was in the Fourth stage sensed Grey's cultivation and was stunned when he found out it was only in the Third stage. Thinking about the attack Grey used, he felt it might have been a one time talisman.
"We can take him on, the only reason he was able to harm us is because he took us unaware, I don't believe he can use that attack again." The young man whispered to the other man with him.
He didn't want to know what the lady wanted to do, but he felt it might not be good for him. Since that was the case, he wanted to see if he could leave before she returned.
Eleanor was in the First stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane, when she overheard them, she looked at Grey, a bit worried. Even though she had heard of how brilliant he was, he still had to go against two people who were a stage above him and he wouldn't have the chance to attack them unaware anymore.
The duo stood and stood on either side of Grey, prepared to attack.
Grey didn't show any reaction to their movements and looked at Eleanor, "Take a few steps back."
Eleanor nodded and did as told.
After she took two steps back, the area was instantly enveloped by lightning and the duo screamed in pain. They started convulsing from the shock they got from the lightning.
"She said you should wait." He said after the duo fell to the ground.
He took a step closer and an array appeared in the area, sealing their elemental essence.
When Eleanor looked at her feet, she realized she was standing only a step away from the array. She soon understood the reason Grey told her to take a step back.
'How did he create an array in such a short time?' She was once again blown away by Grey's abilities.
She suddenly got curious about what he looked like. Grey still had his cloak on, which covered most of his face. Even his mouth which should've been visible was covered by a mask.
"Can you show me your face?" Eleanor said.
Grey was about to reply when the lady returned with a figure in her hand. He took a look at the figure and realized it was an advanced man who looked to be close to his fifties. The man was dressed in fancy clothes so he suspected he was from a wealthy family.
When the young man saw the figure the lady brought over, his eyes opened wide.
"F…ather." He called out weakly. After having his essence sealed, he lost most of his strength, he could barely even stand.
The array Grey used was quite special. This was the reason he told Eleanor to take some steps back so she would not be affected by it.
"Oh, you immobilized them, good." The lady said when she saw the condition of the duo. It wasn't hard for her to sense the presence of the array.
"Mr Mayor, I would like to kill your son, do you object to it?" She turned to the man by her side.
The Mayor had been staring at his son with an enraged look since he arrived, when he heard the words of the lady, his figure froze.
"My lady, please, for my sake, can you spare his life? I'm willing to destroy his cultivation right now." The Mayor went on his knees.
He was infuriated at his son, however, he couldn't just watch as his son was going to be killed.
"He tried to do stupid things to my daughter, do you still think I should spare his life?" The lady asked.
The Mayor only noticed Eleanor when the lady said this. Now he understood what happened. For some reason he felt a wave of sadness hit him. The fact that the lady brought him here meant that she was already prepared to kill his son.
"Why did you bring me here if you already made up your mind?" He asked, depressed.
"I don't want you thinking of what happened to your son, and according to him, you would know if he's killed. My young friend here would've ended him a long time ago, but it wouldn't be good for him to make an enemy of you, so I brought you here. At least this way, you would know why your son dies and not try to do anything foolish." The lady said.
She knew the thought running through the head of the Mayor, but she could care less. If she had killed the young man on her own, she was sure the Mayor would start searching for her, although she was not afraid, she didn't want to go through the hassle.
The Mayor sighed, he turned to his son, eyes filled with disappointment, "Why did you do this?"
"Father, you're going to let them kill me?" The young man asked, stunned.
"You, or the whole family, choose." The Mayor's reply made the young man speechless, he couldn't help but take a look at the young lady again.
He only came out for hunting, but then encountered Eleanor. She was a beautiful young lady and he felt he could get her for himself, he tried approaching her but she didn't give him any chances. Seeing that he was stronger, he decided to take advantage of it.
This was not the first time he had done something like this, hence the reason the people with him were so experienced at it.
