Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 938

Cynthia was still in Cansington.

He needed to absorb the Cold Energy from her body to cultivate his True Energy.

“I'm not going to the Capital for the time being. I have to return to Cansington first,” he said.

Tobias gave him a quick glance and nodded, saying, "Be careful, then."

After saying that, he leaped, covering a few dozen meters. In a matter of seconds, he was already a few hundred meters away.

“Let’s go too,” said Maxine.

“Not yet,” said Thea. “Ja… Honey, Grandfather came here to search for the Sacred Fire Fig. He found it eventually, but the Gu Devil showed up before he could collect it.”

“Forget about it. Let’s go back. The Gu Devil hasn’t left yet. If we stick around, he might come back. Grandpa had already left and we stand no chance against him.”

“Oh, that’s right…” James pondered and asked, “What is Tobias’ rank? Why did the Gu Devil run away so quickly when he saw him?”

“I don't know that,” Maxine said, shaking her head. “Grandpa never made his rank known to the public. Since a few decades ago, he’s rarely engaged in hand-to-hand combat. His level, however, is probably not any weaker than a seventh rank. Even when considering the whole of Sol, he should be among the best.”

James looked astonished. “Seventh rank? That’s incredible.”

Maxine nodded. “He’s quite powerful, but not the most powerful. In each of the Ancient Four families, there are Grand Patriarchs. They were already powerhouses a century ago. Their strength must have reached unfathomable heights after meditating in seclusion for a century. According to speculation, the Grand Patriarch of the Caden family has attained the eighth rank, at the very least. Even if they haven’t achieved it, they would still be at the pinnacle of the seventh rank. The Grand Patriarchs of the other three families should be roughly the same.”

“They’re that powerful? I’ve heard from Gloom that the only people who ever attained the eighth rank throughout history were the major officials of the Prince of Orchid Mountain, who were the ancestors of the Ancient Four today.”

“Many things had not been passed down from previous generations in the East due to the development of western technology in the last century,” Maxine explained. “Some ancient texts were lost, and as a result, they are rarely found in circulation. Gloom is a bodyguard at best. How could he have known the true classified information?”

Then, she reminded him, “James, don’t be fooled by the fact that Sol is full of ordinary people. A true powerhouse is formidable. Once they make a move, the destruction they can cause is quite terrifying.”
