“Brother Jack, thank you for choosing to stay. I thought you would choose to go with the Pavilion of Billow Cloud. After all, they’re more powerful than us, not to mention that they have slightly more soul penetrating level fighters than we do. The Master of the Pavilion of Billow Cloud is even at the second-grade soul-penetrating level!”
After the big crowd left the scene, Austin looked at Jack and his group with a grateful face. The Nine Armies lost a lot this time, so favonovel.com was really afraid that Jack and his men would decide to go with the Pavilion of Billow Cloud, and the Nine Armies would be in huge trouble if the Alliance Guard sent their underlings to seek trouble.
Nonetheless, Jack smiled lightly and said, “I don’t think that my elder brother, Lance will forgive me that easily. He’s now the disciple of the First Elder of the Pavilion of Billow Cloud. So that’s no way I’d go with them. Besides, we suddenly barged into this place and put you guys in danger, and I truly feel sorry about that. So, I think it’s better and wiser for us to stay with you guys, going through thick and thin together!”
Jack’s words made Austin feel guilty and ashamed of himself because they knew that they were no match for the Bloodshed Clan and decided to wait, at the same time, somewhat reluctant to help Jack and the group. However, Jack and his group in the end still decided to go through thick and thin with them, when they could have secretly left the forest when the Nine Armies were fighting with the Bloodshed clan.
“Young Master Jack, no matter what, we’re stuck with you! We don’t want to follow those people at all! After all, those who are from the Hall of Divine Royal decided to join the Pavilion of Billow Cloud, and we despised being under the same clan with them!”
The head of a second-class family said to Jack after thinking for a brief moment.
“He’s right, Young Master Jack! Although the Pavilion of Billow Cloud is strong and powerful, we have faith in you! We believe that once you break through to the soul penetrating realm, the Pavilion of Billow Cloud is nothing to you!”
Another head of a third-class family immediately chimed in and looked at Jack with a smile.
They all knew very well in their hearts that Jack was a third-grade alchemist, and although the Pavilion of Billow Cloud might appear to be strong and powerful right now, as long as Jack had time to refine pills and distribute them to the others, they all would be able to improve their martial status in no time. Moreover, Jack was a master among the masters; it would be the wisest and the most promising choice to follow Jack.
Jack did not know whether to cry or laugh after hearing all these boot-licking compliments from these family heads.
He then looked at Austin and handed favonovel.com a healing pill. “First Fortress Master, I made this healing pill and it’s quite effective. Take it and you shall recover from your injuries in no time.”
“Thank you!”
Austin had healing pills as well, but since Jack had offered favonovel.com his, favonovel.com did not want to reject his kindness. So, favonovel.com accepted Jack’s healing pill with a smile on his face and swallowed the pills. “Fortress Master Whittemore will arrange places for all of you to stay! On top of that, we’ll send several men to keep an eye on the peaks of the hills, and once we find anomalies or people from the Alliance Guard approaching this place, we can be notified immediately and prepare in advance!”
Jack nodded his head in agreement. “The Sword King Clan will definitely report to their superiors and they will hold discussion over it. And this back and forth effort will take some time, at least a month I guess. So, we’re relatively safe for at least a month, and within this one month, we shall improve our martial status! It’s the golden opportunity for us to train and improve ourselves!”
“Heh? But how much can we improve in Just a month’s time?”.
Austin smiled bitterly upon hearing Jack’s words. “Raising the martial level in one month? Right, even if some demi-god level fighters are able to break into the early stage of True God Realm, it’s not much use for us. What we need are fighters with ultimate god level or soul-penetrating level! Only if we could have more people with soul-penetrating level!”
“Haha! Don’t worry about that. I’m certain that someone among us will break into the soul-penetrating realm within a month!”
Jack chuckled and responded.
