Chapter 1219  Arch-Angel

"No one knows why, but many suspect that he is being groomed as an heir. Being competent and self-sufficient, after all, is one of the greater traits of the heirs of such powerful people. Yet for all the ability he has displayed, he is constantly plagued by hardships. It\'s come to everyone\'s attention that apparently, he has a sister who suffered some kind of incurable injury or disease. She has fallen asleep and isn\'t waking up. Before that, she suffered from various assassination attempts - get this - from their own grandfather!

"For the past few weeks he has been trying to get in contact with the Henali one way or another for a way to heal his sister. But, they obviously do not want to make it too easy for him, since they obviously want him to depend on them. Rumor has it that he was told to accumulate 100,000 Henali Credits to heal his sister!

"While all of this happens, he\'s began looking for his grandfather as soon as the preliminary tournament ends, but he hasn\'t been able to get a single lead. The aura he\'s giving off right now is probably a result of being pressured by the monumental task of accumulating so many credits to save his sister in time, and driven to rage by his inability to find his grandfather.

"If he wants to fulfill even one of those tasks any time soon, he has no choice but to participate in the champions tourney and perform well. It\'s no wonder he\'s reacting so strongly - especially when his own backer isn\'t actually helping him out."

"Well that is  interesting," said the flower. "But I was expecting a little more for it to have caught your attention."

"That\'s because there\'s another piece of news in this situation that even he himself doesn\'t know yet," Zuri said with a knowing smile. "As it turns out, he has other sisters as well. The middle one has virtually no presence, so no one knows much about her, but apparently the older sister was recently recruited by Eden corp! It seems that, despite being a human, she has displayed such an absurd affinity with divine energy and the angelic arts, that she\'s en route to become an Arch-Angel!"

If flowers could drop their jaws, then what the flower was doing now was exactly the equivalent of it. While Lex\'s backer was relatively unknown despite their being some knowledge about his traits as a Dao Lord, and the Angels were different. They had an established hierarchy and position within the universe at large.

While Eden Corp. was just one facet of the Angel\'s influence, it was a significant one. But the fact that his sister was on the path to become an Arch-Angel meant that she was recognized to have massive potential. All Arch-Angels were Demi-Dao Lords, and if they were able to break through that rank, their status would be upgraded further.

"Wait a minute, isn\'t Lex\'s backer also a Dao Lord?" the flower suddenly asked. She refrained from saying his name directly, as that was rude and would attract the attention of the said Dao Lord.

"Yes," Zuri answered with a knowing smile, aware that her friend finally understood why Zuri was interested to begin with.

"So rumors are that Lex is being trained to be an heir, and his sister is up for the position of Arch-Angel. The humans haven\'t had a Dao Lord candidate for countless years, and now they suddenly have two, and they\'re siblings?" n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The flower couldn\'t help but raise its voice attracting everyone\'s attention. Yet Zuri only smiled and looked at her screen. She had only mentioned knowledge that was easily attainable in public. She had not made mention of the fact that she was also aware of Lex\'s other sister, who was far from ordinary.

As someone who herself was not a Dao Lord, she was in no position to give someone such a title, but Lex\'s other sister most definitely also counted as a Dao Lord candidate.

That meant there weren\'t two candidates from one family but three. Considering the fact that there was nothing publicly known about his other sister, there was always a chance that the number might even be four.

Zuri was not one to conspire against others. It wasn\'t in her nature. But that did not mean she had to abstain from watching such a good show. Plus, having kept an eye on Moon for so long, she was fairly certain that her situation was not nearly as bad as it was made out to be in public.

Lex was putting on a show, and she was interested in watching it.

"Oh, did I mention that the dragons have made an entry into the Champions tourney this year?" Zuri continued. "And it just so happens that the chances are very high that the dragon contestant will run into Lex. Wait, right, you don\'t know about that either. So apparently, Lex has some drama with the dragons as well…" Zuri began to regale those who would listen about the various stories surrounding Lex. Anyone and everyone could see that the situation was turning into a boiling pot, and would erupt soon.

Still, the situation was not critical enough for all the attending dignitaries to pay close attention to Lex. But for the sake of staying updated on this entertaining situation, they kept an eye on Zuri\'s screen.
