Then, I walked closer to the gate. The guard noticed me, but he didn’t recognize me because of the mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn’t open the door. If they did, the warriors from outside would swarm in. So, I used the flight ability the next second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I appeared in mid air. Then I flew away from the spot. In the blink of an eye, I appeared in a narrow alley with no one there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few seconds later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd outside the gate was stunned. They came to a realization. Some of them recognized the uniform of Star University.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The masked man was wearing the uniform of Star University.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It could be him. His name is Zack Lockwood.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I saw the emblem of the Thunderflame Faction as well.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warriors outside discussed it. The crowd was mixed. It had locals and outsiders as well. Among the outsiders, there were a few killers and old men running out of lifespan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The killers and the old men immediately left the crowd. After slipping away from the crowd, they noticed where the masked man had left earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old men and the killers immediately split up and went in different directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, the Purple Mark Guard was watching from the top of the tower. He noticed Zack Lockwood had left the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bright smile appeared on his face. He then shifted from the place and headed towards Zack Lockwood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, inside the Trent Hotel, the Manager and staff had lost their patience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Manager said, “Stop!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zack Lockwood left the hotel just now. He was wearing a mask. Didn’t you guys notice it earlier?” He added in a serious tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quiet!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, the guests quieted down all of a sudden. They started to realize that the masked man went past them earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s true!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Someone left earlier!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the group, someone had said it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s go find him,” a guest said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the people gathered inside the room. They immediately left the hotel. But another shock was waiting for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd outside the gate had reduced. Seeing that, they started to ask questions. Then they realized it was Zack Lockwood who had left the place mid air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guests’ faces changed drastically. How could they stay here? Some of them stayed here just to see Zack Lockwood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, they decided to search the nearby area. Others went inside the hotel. They knew Zack Lockwood hadn’t checked out of the hotel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, they believed Zack Lockwood would come back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was waiting at the end of the narrow alley. At the end of the narrow alley, there were nothing but huge buildings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t know whether anyone would come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, the Purple Mark Guard appeared on top of the nearby building. He didn’t go to see Zack Lockwood. He could watch Zack Lockwood from there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So far, he had sensed no Purple Mark Warriors. He was not worried about Zack’s safety. Rather, he was thinking that Zack Lockwood would go for the kill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, an old man running out of lifespan entered the narrow alley. He was walking on the road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t know why he wanted to see if anyone was here on the empty road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, his senses picked up someone standing at the end of the alley. The old man’s face changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a Gold Mark Warrior, so he was not afraid. He thought there were no Purple Mark Warriors in the city. No one could defeat him in the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, the old man started walking towards the end. There, he saw someone standing with his arms crossed, his back leaning against a tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he got closer, he saw someone wearing a mask. The masked person was none other than the warrior who flew away from the hotel earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man paused his footsteps. He thought that person could be Zack Lockwood because he saw the Star University uniform and the Thunderflame Faction Emblem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, the old man was hesitating because he thought it could be a trap. As far as he knew, the target was a Black Mark Warrior who broke through recently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was another rumor going on that Zack Lockwood had become a Silver Mark Warrior. But he thought the rumors were false.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first person who told him the news was none other than his employer. Even the employer was not sure about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man was worried that the Thunderflame Faction could have sent someone else to pose as the Zack Lockwood Warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the news about Zack Lockwood was released by the Star University, he thought the person in front of him was not Zack Lockwood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why he was hesitating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, I continued to stare at the old man. I saw through the strength of the old man. My perception was better than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could tell that the old man’s vitality was drying out. But he happened to be a Gold Mark Warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why is he standing there?” I asked in my heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could tell that the old man was observing me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Should I remove my mask or not?” I thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I thought that the old man was not convinced that I was Zack Lockwood. That’s why he was hesitating. I was eager to fight, but I didn’t want to kill an already dying old man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, I noticed someone else walking into the empty alley. My eyesight was sharp. Then I saw the person who was coming was none other than another old man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Another old man is coming?” I asked myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, the old man who was already hesitating turned around and saw another familiar face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes flashed with anger. He was the one who found the target first, yet another one was coming. He didn’t want to share the reward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he was a Gold Mark Warrior, he could kill the masked man later after confirming his identity. Before that, he decided to eliminate the rival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!\u003C\u002Fp>",1043,"2026-06-05T15:57:19.919Z",1,"novelbin.me","72b3a047814420d8d240ab1b5f639765acc0e1417eba71fcb61e8e597a158055","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-1358","ancient-tears-bloodline-chapter-1356",1498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fancient-tears-bloodline-cover.jpg"]
