Chapter 951 Tracking Ksana Down
“Our next meal? Well, I just hope this meal won't be our last. I have yet to complete my research. I don't want it to end like this...”
Charleigh mumbled as he munched on the meat.
Ksana then whipped out a huge bottle of hard liquor and chugged on it before saying, “I really don't know what you were
thinking, Charleigh. Why abandon your life as heir to the throne in Rodunst to carry out some genetic research? Now, look where
it has gotten you. Not only does your own family reject you, but you will also only be a pawn to either Chanaea or Remdik,
regardless of which side you end up with. You have a great talent for cultivation, but you used all of it in your research instead.
Sure, you became an Archmage, but you might've gotten past Divine Realm long ago if you focused solely on cultivation instead.
What is it that drives you to make yourself suffer like this?”
Charleigh, who was lying on the ground, looked up at Ksana and the bottle of hard liquor as he replied, “Let me have a sip of that
hard liquor, and I'll tell you.”
Ksana glanced at the bottle before picking it up and pouring the booze directly into Charleigh's mouth.
After gulping down the hard liquor that he never tried his entire life, Charleigh flashed Ksana a wry smile and asked, “Would you
believe me if I told you that someone had cursed me?”
A curse?
Ksana shot him a confused look and shook her head lightly in response.
“I don't know what you're talking about.”
Charleigh let out a helpless sigh as he replied, “Let me put it this way. The reason behind my rapid cultivation progress is that I
am able to grasp cultivation methods quickly. It wouldn't even be an overstatement to say that I get this strange sensation after
seeing a technique being performed once. It's like asking yourself what one plus one will get you. You already know the answer
without having to perform the calculation.”
“That's why I said you're a genius. It's a shame you didn't put that talent of yours to good use,” Ksana exclaimed as she recalled
the younger days of being forced to drink Holy Blood and training really hard.
“It's not like I wanted it! This talent is exactly what cursed me! I used to just be a guy who was talented at cultivation, but a
powerful cultivator arrived in Rodunst as a guest when I was fourteen. He told us that modern medicine has proven genetics to

be the determining factor of humanity's development, and he proposed that we use genetic technology to filter out all the special
genes cultivators have. After that, we could modify the genes of embryos so they'll be born with the potential for cultivation!”
Charleigh exclaimed with his teeth tightly clenched.
His eyes went wide as though he had recalled something terrifying as he continued, “You have no idea how his proposal opened
up the doors to my research. I used to be a proud and arrogant man who wanted to be number one in everything. When I heard
that no one had applied the theory that the cultivator proposed, I felt a strong urge to do so. I then went down the path of doing
research on genetic technology and couldn't stop myself at all. Did you really think I never considered getting past Divine Realm
before conducting my research? Well, just so you know, one has to overcome their inner demons in order to reach Divine Realm.
Mine is the desire to perfect my genetic research, which is clearly an impossible task!”
Ksana was a little shocked when she saw the veins on Charleigh's forehead bulging from frustration.
She was aware of the fact that one had to overcome one's inner demons as part of Divine Tribulation, but she never thought it
would be his research on genetic technology.
Although she had no idea what genetic technology was all about, she could understand why the ability to produce Grandmaster
Realm cultivators was an overpowered skill to have.
Otherwise, Chanaea and Remdik would not have gone to such extreme lengths just to get him.
“I may not be able to understand what you're talking about, but I think I can relate to your pain,” Ksana said while appearing to be
in deep thought.
Charleigh shook his head. “No, you don't. As I went down the rabbit hole of my research, I couldn't even bring myself to cultivate
anymore. The only thing I see when I close my eyes is all the scientific data I've collected from my experiments. I mean how else
do you think Jonathan was able to catch me? Given my cultivation level, I—”
Ksana grabbed her backpack and jumped toward the side before he could finish his sentence.
Boom!
She had just dragged Charleigh aside when a gigantic battle axe came hurtling through the sky and landed right where they
were a second ago.
Ksana slowly wore the backpack on her back as she looked up at the sky.

Three figures could be seen descending rapidly with their parachutes open.
They turned out to be cultivators from Remdik.
“I don't think you can escape now, Ksana!” Charleigh said with a wry smile when he saw the three figures descending from the
sky.
“Shut up! I will make sure I cut your head off if I fail to escape!” Ksana snapped at him as she stuffed him into her backpack,
leaving only his head exposed.
With her broken blade in hand, Ksana then ran off as quickly as her legs could carry her.
She could try standing her ground if she were up against a God Realm cultivator, but taking on three God Realm cultivators at
the same time was definitely beyond her capabilities.
“This is Ksana! I am currently being pursued by three God Realm cultivators! What are you guys doing over at Asura's Office?
Hurry up and send reinforcements over!”
Ksana was clearly unhappy with Asura's Office.
It has been almost four hours since I revealed my location! As quick as Remdik may be to act upon that information, they
shouldn't be faster than Chanaea! Why is it that they beat our guys to us? Does Chanaea not care if Charleigh and I make it out
alive?
Little did she know, she was in that situation precisely because Asura's Office cared too much about their survival.
Hades had Zachary contact Sirius the moment he found out about her location.
Karl who was now Number 1 had led the cultivators from Dark Special Forces on a mission to rescue Ksana and Charleigh.
Because they had headed out in advance, they were halfway there when they received the update on her location.
As such, they had to change their course and rely on military helicopters or other means of land transport to quickly get to her.
Things were different for Remdik, though. Their men were all in their military base when they received the information on Ksana's
location.

Therefore, they just had to board their helicopters and head right over. Although they were farther away, they were able to get to
her much faster than those from Asura's Office.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The three figures cut off their parachutes when they were close enough to the ground and landed on their feet. They then
launched themselves in her direction at such high speeds that they only left afterimages of themselves behind.
The muscular guy from the trio shattered the roof of a house as he stomped hard on it and disappeared from sight. The next
thing Ksana knew, he had reappeared in front of her.
“Hand Charleigh over, and we will consider sparing your life!”
