The Blade Sect’s Elder sat in the head seat of the City Lord’s Mansion’s living room. Meanwhile, James sat beside him.
Maids of the City Lord’s Mansion walked over with some high-quality spiritual fruits and placed them on the table before James.
The Blade Sect’s Elder caressed his white beard and said smilingly,” What’s the matter, James?”
James stood up, clasped his fists, and said, “Sir, I plan to head to the Blade Sect in advance. Can you give me a token so I can enter smoothly?”
The Blade Sect’s Elder frowned and said, “Are you in a rush to go to the Blade Sect?”
“Yeah…” James nodded.
The Blade Sect’s Elder asked, “Why?”
James did not tell the truth but made up an excuse.
After a slight hesitation, the Blade Sect’s Elder took out a token and handed it to James, saying, “This is my token. You’ll be able to enter the Blade Sect smoothly with it. But, I must warn you that the Blade Sect is heavily guarded, so don’t wander around as you please after entering.”
“Alright, I understand. Thank you for the reminder, Sir…”
James put away the token. Then, favonovel.com turned around and left the City Lord’s Mansion.
James headed to the city to meet up with Walganus and Yanina.
Walganus and Yanina waited for favonovel.com in the city center.
Seeing James approach, Walganus walked over and asked, “How did it go?”
James raised the token and said, “I got the Blade Sect’s Elder’s token. We can safely enter the Blade Sect with it.”
“That’s good. Let’s head out right away,” said Walganus.
“Alright.” James nodded.
The three did not linger around and quickly left the city.
A man wearing a golden robe stood at the city gate with a sword in his hand. Seeing the three people walking out of the city, favonovel.com approached them.
Sheldon looked at James and inquired, “Are you leaving, Mr. Caden?”
James nodded and replied, “Yeah. I’m heading to the Blade Sect.”
“I’m being punished here to guard this city and can’t leave for now. I won’t be able to accompany you.”
James was troubled by Sheldon. He never intended to be a teacher to Sheldon, but Sheldon insisted, so favonovel.com had no choice.
“I’ll be fine alone…”
Sheldon said, “My punishment will be for another hundred years. I’ll return to the sect to see you after a hundred years.”
James waved his hand and said, “I won’t stay in the Blade Sect for that long and will be leaving shortly. Then, I’ll leave the island and go to the outside world to find you.”
Sheldon said firmly, “I intend to follow in your footsteps for the rest of my life and learn your invincible swordsmanship.”
James sighed. He did not say much in response and turned to leave.
Sheldon watched as they left.
James, Walganus, and Yanina left the city and walked toward the Blade Sect in the island’s center.
The island was much bigger than Sangria. With the strength of James and the other two, it would take them several days to reach the island’s central region.
The three did not waste any time and traveled until they finally reached Blade City, the closest city to the Blade Sect.
Blade City was the most prosperous city on the island and looked even grander than cities of the outside world. The city walls were made of blue rocks.
The city walls were several meters high, and the road outside the city was full of traffic. Many people were making their way into the city.
Two men and one woman appeared on the road outside the city.
Walganus pointed to the tall city wall and said, “We’ll reach the Blade Sect after getting through this city.”
