120 Old He. Critical Wounds

As he spoke, the crowd nodded in agreement.

"However, I still have one suspicion besides these easily available people." The white-bearded elder stopped for a bit before saying softly "I suspect that… this might be done by the Nine Supremes."

"The Nine Supremes?"

Everyone was stunned beyond belief.

The crown prince’s expression changed only slightly before he hurriedly asked, "Why do you think so?"

The elder looked hesitant as he said, "This… This old and useless one is only guessing, there is no hard evidence. I am merely speculating."

The crown prince’s expression grew heavier, emotions danced in his orbs but the meaning behind them was too complex to be understood.

After some time, the crown prince suddenly said in a low voice, "If the Nine Supremes really did get involved, why are they partaking in this? There should be a reason somehow. Besides, what kind of gain could they take from this?"

No one could answer the crown prince’s question.
