1222 Taking Out The Phantom "Believe me now?" Grey asked calmly. The golden robed man and the others nodded. At first, they kept their eyes on the place where the phantom landed, but right after, their gazes turned to the man Grey accused of controlling the phantom. "I don't know anything about it." The man still stuck with his initial words. "Did you keep your energy field active?" The golden robed man asked. "Yes, I didn't deactivate it for even a moment. I don't know how that thing stuck to me. How are we even sure it stuck with me? It was clearly struck down from the sky." The man said. He wore a wronged face, shocked at the current situation that was unfolding. "If your energy field was active, how come you didn't sense it?" The golden robed man would not believe the words of the man so easily. Grey had proved that he could see it, now that he had proven himself, it meant that he was right when he saw the phantom was stuck to the man. "I don't know. But I didn't sense it, nor did I bring it here." The man still didn't change his words. The golden robed man had a confused expression on his face. From how adamant the man was, he was starting to feel like he truly had no idea of what was happening. His gaze fell on Grey and another thought came to his head. 'What if he's the one controlling it? If he has some sort of dissatisfaction against him, then it would make sense to frame him and get him killed.' The thought of Grey being the one who controls the phantom was very much in the head of the golden robed man, not just him, but a few others as well. However, they didn't see any reason why Grey would want to frame this man, he was stronger than the man when it came to attack power. Besides, the only person they felt Grey wouldn't mind framing was the young foreigner who seemed to have an issue with him, but he didn't, and the son of the Dawson Family Head even confirmed his mental attack theory to them. The man felt his head ache and he couldn't come to a conclusion in a short time. "Fine, since you can see it, destroy it. We have no tangible evidence against him, we can't attack him." He concluded after a minute of silence. Grey didn't argue with him and walked over to the phantom that already had some parts destroyed. He unleashed a powerful fire attack and the pained shriek of the phantom resounded in the place. Its horrifying scream made the people around feel goosebumps on their body. Those below the Elemental Venerable Plane felt a chill run down their spines. "Dead." Grey turned and walked over to where Cori was standing. The golden robed man kept his gaze on Grey's facial expression, as well as that of the man Grey accused, but he didn't see any changes in their face. Grey had the same nonchalant expression, and the man had a vexed expression. That expression has been there since he was trying to explain himself to them. Now that Grey had killed the phantom, there was even a hint of relief in his eyes, he looked at the golden robed man, displeased at the fact that he suspected him. The golden robed man gave him an apologetic nod and they continued their journey. There was still an array before them. The only reason they stopped was due to Grey saying he could see the phantom. To be honest, everyone loosened up now that the phantom has been destroyed. While it was still uncertain if it was alive or dead, they were all on high alert, not even able to walk at their normal speed in fear of being attacked out of the blue. Now that the phantom was out of the picture, they could move as freely as they wanted to. The golden robed man was the first to step on the array. Grey didn't wait for anyone and also took a step into the array. He didn't allow Cori to enter with him, telling her to wait for him. Once he cracks the array, he would take her with him, but for now, there was no way he would dare to take her into the array with him. While sensing the array, he turned to the golden robed man, "Can you break it?" "There are a series of overlapping arrays. I can't deal with all of them." The golden robed man replied. "I can break a few, but it will take some time." Grey said. Surprise engulfed the face of the golden robed man when he heard that Grey was also good with arrays as he asked, "You're good with this as well?" "I know a thing or two." Grey replied casually. The golden robed man felt Grey was getting more and more mysterious. A powerful cultivator with such a high realm at such a young age. What was more shocking than his cultivation stage? His strength! His strength was above his cultivation stage by a mile. Even though he didn't use a powerful attack while testing him, given the ease Grey used in blocking the attack, it was easy to see that he was way stronger than a Seventh stage Elemental Venerable. Grey's methods were also a means of surprise as well. He was able to make his eyes glow and see something they couldn't. If not for him, his children would've been dead as he didn't sense the phantom early. Now, Grey was still good with arrays. One has to know that it should take years to learn all this, but Grey was barely twenty-five or twenty-six, yet he had managed to learn so many varieties of things that would aid him when it came to battling. The golden robed man had seen a few foreigners, but none of them were like Grey. While he was still in thought, Grey had started to decipher the array on top. "Anyone else good with this?" The golden robed man asked. Five people stepped forward and they all started to work on the array. Hey guys, here's the chap! Don't forget to vote with powerstones and golden tickets.
