Chapter 2318


    Graham frowned as he looked at Fane earnestly. Fane gazed into the distance, looking at the


    endless color of blood on the horizon. He fell deep in thought, and after a good while, he finally


    opened his mouth and continued, "He wants to kill us. There are, after all, benefits to achieving just


    that. After all, we''re hispetitors, and only by killing us will he easily obtain those rewards.


    "If we sessfully arrive at the foot of Netherworld Mountain and get sent back to the Divine Void


    Slope, there will be another battle after that. If it had been before, he would probably have been


    incredibly confident in beating the both of us. However, right now ... He probably doesn''t have that


    confidence anymore."


    Graham nodded in agreement; Fane was right. Killing them would save him a lot of trouble.


    Fane smiled coldly before he added, "He''s got a grudge against me from the start, too.


    Furthermore, he definitely has another goal in entering the Hidden ce for Resources. In clearing


    us, his obstacles, it''ll be much easier for him to do anything."


    Graham''s face was sullen as he said, "So that''s why he wants to kill us all-not wanting anyone to


    survive?"


    Fane nodded, and Graham was close to losing control of hisposure. Just thinking about the


    masked man, who always acted high and mighty, and thinking


    about the incredibly disadvantageous position they were in made him incredibly anxious.


    He looked up at Fane. "I think something''s wrong."

    Fane raised a brow, motioning for Graham to continue. Graham lowered his voice as he said,"


    You''re right. His greatest wish at the moment is to clear obstacles, and that''s us, so he can arrive at


    Netherworld Mountain alone, making him the only one who passed.


    "He doesn''t have the confidence that he can kill the two of us in one blow, so he needed to plot and


    scheme, clearing everyone around us and leaving us alone. Then, he''d use numbers to eliminate


    us."


    Saying that, he paused, and Fane nodded. "That''s probably what he''s nning, so which part of it


    do you think is wrong?"


    Fane seemed to have thought of something after his own question, and he smirked. "You''re saying


    that since he''s trying to eliminate everyone who can help the two of us, then no traces would be left,


    but we found the corpses."


    Graham nodded. That was indeed what he was thinking, and it was far too much of a strange point.


    If the masked man truly did n on eliminating everyone else, leaving only both him and Fane for


    last, then he would not have let them realize something was strange.


    However, after he killed the northern n disciples, he allowed the others to run amok, not


    bothering to clear any traces and disyed too tantly. It was clear he did not care if Graham and


    the others could see it.


    "That''s a hefty question. Before we can clear up this point, I feel like your earlier guess has no


    ground to stand on."


    Graham was right, and Fane agreed with what he said as well. Fane smiled, not answering


    Graham''s question and, instead, mentioned the hidden traces of electricity on the withered tree.


    Graham said in confusion, "He left traces of the Evil Blood Thunder as a mark, and you think that


    there''s definitely more than just one? What does this have to do with your earlier suspicions?"


    Fane looked up and said earnestly, "The two definitely have something to do with each other. You


    were definitely right before. Since he wanted to kill off everyone around us and finish us off in the


    end, then he wouldn''t have let us notice it.


    "However, the fact of the matter is that he seems to be deliberately letting us notice it. He wanted to


    disy everything in front of us, so there''s definitely something behind it. Whatever they are, his


    goals are all for us to see."
