As Roche was muttering to himself, the voice of a subordinate came from the secret chamber.
"Mr. Chiang, all the elders are inside. They are in a coma."
Upon hearing this, Roche entered the secret chamber and brought all the elders out.
Several elders woke up first, and Roche immediately asked what was going on.
With the elders' explanation, Roche had thoroughly figured out what had happened.
His eyes suddenly turned cold, and he snorted, "He is really Natalia's disciple."
"That fellow must be captured."
As soon as the order was given, Roche asked his subordinates to take the elders back to rest, and he stepped out himself.
"Let's go capture that fellow."
Thirty minutes later, Roche led the members of the Alchemist Association to gather below the inn.
Before long, Mattham returned. When he saw his father, he hurried forward and said, "Father, you're here."
Roche glanced at him and asked, "What did Bevan and Cormac say?"
Mattham said, "They all promised to send troops. They are on their way now.”
Roche nodded. He squinted to look at the inn and said coldly, "That fellow has nowhere to run."
At this time, Mattham thought of something. He looked at his father and said, "Father, I also found something which may be useful."
"What is it?" Roche asked.
Mattham said, "I remember now. When Fade first entered the city, I saw him at the city gate, but I didn't pay much attention to him at that time." "There were two or three people who were with him at that time. I checked. Two of them were passers-by and had nothing to do with him. But there was a young woman in her twenties who had been with Fade all the time."
"Later, Fade went to Wood Fragrance City to stay in the inn. That woman went to the Wood Fragrance Academy in the north of the city alone."
Like the South Van Academy in South Van City, the so-called Wood Fragrance Academy was also an official academy established by the city. It taught martial arts, alchemy, formation, talisman making, beast controlling, and so on.
After entering Wood Fragrance City, Fade asked her to stay at Wood Fragrance Academy under the identity of a student of the South Van Academy to ensure her own safety.
Unexpectedly, Mattham managed to find out about this.
After listening to his son, Roche's eyes narrowed slightly and he said, "A woman in her twenties who has always been with Fade.
In this case, that woman is very likely to be Natalia's granddaughter."
Mattham said, "Father, I think so. I asked someone to inquire about it. I heard that when Natalia was in South Van City, she did have a granddaughter named Evelyne."
Upon hearing this, Roche's eyes darkened. He looked at his son and said, "Send some more people over to control Evelyne."
"Remember, keep her alive. Don't hurt her."
Mattham was a little surprised. After all, in his opinion, it was enough for him to send someone over. He didn't expect his father to send more people. Was he placing too much importance on this?
Roche could see his son's confusion. He snorted and said, "Do you think I'm placing too much importance on this?"
Mattham nodded slightly.
Roche explained, "If that woman is really Natalia's granddaughter, then she is more important than Fade."
"After all, she is the granddaughter of the young master of the Great Hsia Domain, Nile!"
Hearing this, Mattham suddenly understood, and his eyes lit up. "Father, you're saying that if we control Evelyne, we can use this as leverage to threaten Natalia and Nile. We-"
Bevan nodded and said, "I've brought all the elites of the city guards with me. The strength of each team of 100 people is above the fifth stage of the Soul Refine Realm."
Cormac also said, "The strength of our trading company isn't as good as that of Mr. Meng. There are only 60 people, but their strength is basically above the fifth stage of the Soul Refine Realm."
Upon hearing that, Roche nodded.
In addition to the elite soldiers of the Alchemist Association that he had gathered, there were about 100 people above the fifth stage of the Soul Refine Realm.
There were a total of two hundred and eighty experts at the fifth stage of the Soul Refine Realm.
With such strength, it was enough to sweep through a small city, not to mention to
besiege one person.
Roche gave the order and pointed at the inn. "Gather your men and surround the inn. Don't let Fade escape."
"If there is a chance, capture him alive. If not, kill him."
"Yes!" Bevan and Cormac took the order and ordered their men to disperse and surround the inn.
At this moment, Fade, who was in the inn, naturally noticed the movement below.
He got up from the bed, walked to the bedside, and looked down at the densely packed soldiers, as well as Roche, Bevan, and Cormac, who were standing in the middle of the crowd, with a faint smile on their faces.
Then, with his hands behind his back, he floated out of the window and spoke loudly in the clear moonlight.
"Is everyone here?"
"You all came at the right time. I'll kill everyone in one fell swoop."
