Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 1039

James asked about Mr. Gabriel, and the King’s expression turned solemn.

He took a cigarette from the table, lit it, and inhaled deeply. Smoke filled the air in front of him. After some time, he began to speak slowly.

“When discussing this, one should begin a century ago.”

James was intrigued upon hearing these words. He always had a limited understanding of what had happened a century prior.

He only knew that one hundred years ago, the first King of Sol had teamed up with the ancient martial artists of Sol to encircle and destroy the Gu Sect. It was said that countless lives were lost in the battle.

“A hundred years ago, aggressors started an invasion. Sol was in terrible distress. In every region, resistance forces were formed. Among the numerous resistance forces, the brigade led by the Gu Sect was the most powerful. However, the Gu Sect did not have pure intentions. Not only did they want to drive out the aggressors, but they also wanted to retaliate by occupying the hostile nation and attempting to unite the whole world.

“Furthermore, the Gu Sect’s strategies were sinister. They made use of Gu venom to confuse and poison people’s minds.

“In the end, all regions of the nation came together and expelled the aggressors. The Empire of Sol was established, but it was far from peaceful in the nation. The head of the Gu Sect’s Maverick family advocated seizing this opportunity to expand the territory and lead an army to launch an attack on the entire world.

“Others believed that since Sol had only recently been stabilized, it should heal and increase its population. It was inappropriate to start a battle, but the conflict with the Gu Sect eventually took place.

“During this battle, the first King of Sol joined forces with martial artists in Sol. With Mount Thunder Sect as the leading force, combined with the other two families of the Gu Sect, they surrounded and attacked the Maverick family. There were countless casualties in that battle. Even the Mount Thunder Sect Leader at the time was tricked, poisoned with Gu venom, and died in battle.

“After that, the King was still concerned about the other two families and thought that the Gu technique shouldn’t have existed at all. So, he wiped out the Davis family and the Owen family as well. Since then, Gu Sect disappeared without a trace.

“However, the Gu Sect Leader at that time might have already guessed that the King would attack him, so he gave himself a way out. During the battle that year, Callan Maverick, the Gu Sect Leader, managed to escape. The person who died was simply his underling impersonating him.”

After listening up until that point, James finally learned the truth about the battle with the Gu Sect a century prior.

He had to ask, “Could it be that Mr. Gabriel is actually a descendant of the Gu Sect Leader?”

James recalled the person who appeared at Mount Arclens when his grandfather was kidnapped. His grandfather referred to him as the Gu Devil, and Tobias’ expression changed when he heard that.
