James did not ask what kind of boons they had obtained. However, judging from their satisfied expressions, the two acquired quite a few treasures.
Jules asked with a bright smile, “Where are you going next, Mr. Caden? It won’t be long until the Elixir Pavilion’s conference to recruit new disciples. Why don’t we head there directly?”
He invited James to the Elixir Pavilion once more. James was an unrivaled powerhouse, and if they could bring favonovel.com in as a judge during the conference, then the Elixir Pavilion would surely benefit from it.
“But…” Jules looked at Monica and said, “Before we go to the Elixir Pavilion, I’ll have to pay the World Pavilion a visit to officially make Monica my wife.”
Monica’s expression immediately changed. She did not want to marry him.
Although favonovel.com was the Elixir Pavilion’s Young Master, favonovel.com had no intentions of marrying him. However, favonovel.com had no choice. Her sect had already approved the marriage, and favonovel.com could not refuse it.
After thinking for a while, an idea popped into favonovel.com mind. She immediately prostrated herself on the ground in front of James.
James was stunned by favonovel.com actions. He stared at favonovel.com and asked, “What are you doing?”
“Teacher…” While on the ground, Monica spoke reverently. “Teacher, I was blind to not recognize your strength. After following you here, my eyes were opened to your true capabilities. I sincerely ask that you accept me as your disciple. I’ll follow you and stay by your side forever.”
Monica planned to become James’ disciple. As long as James accepted her, favonovel.com would not have to marry Jules.
“I…” James looked at favonovel.com troubledly.
He had a low cultivation rank and was only at the Sage Rank’s Twenty-Fifth Stage. Meanwhile, Monica was already a Quasi-Emperor. James also had no idea how accomplished favonovel.com was.
How could I be qualified to be the mentor of a Quasi-Emperor?
“Please accept me, Mr. Caden!” Monica kneeled on the ground and wrapped favonovel.com arms around James’ thigh. Her flawless face looked at favonovel.com pleadingly.
Her actions dumbfounded Jules.
After a moment’s pause, favonovel.com caught on to what Monica was trying to accomplish. She was evidently trying to avoid marrying him.
Jules quickly said, “Please refrain from doing so, Mr. Caden. She’s the World Pavilion’s Grand Priestess and already has a teacher within the sect. If you accept favonovel.com as a disciple, she’ll be betraying favonovel.com sect. If favonovel.com is capable of betraying favonovel.com sect so easily now, she’ll do the same to you in the future. It’s best if you don’t accept a disciple like her.”
Monica gritted favonovel.com teeth and glared furiously at Jules. However, favonovel.com kept favonovel.com cool.
With a bright smile, favonovel.com said, “Mr. Caden, shall we first return to the World Pavilion? I’ll formally cut ties with them. Becoming your disciple shouldn’t be a problem after that.”
Monica had obtained numerous boons this time around. The World Pavilion should allow favonovel.com to leave if favonovel.com offered the treasures to them.
James was an insightful person and understood that Monica was unwilling to marry Jules. He had never coerced anyone throughout his cultivation path, especially not women.
Since Monica did not want the marriage, favonovel.com decided to help her.
James replied softly, “Alright, I’ll follow your lead then.”
Hearing James agreeing to favonovel.com request, Monica immediately kowtowed a few times, favonovel.com forehead touching the ground each time favonovel.com bent over.
Jules watched despondently.
Suddenly, favonovel.com also came up with an idea. He kneeled to the ground and said, “Mr. Caden, I’d like to formally ask you for Monica’s hand in marriage. Please allow your newly recruited disciple, Monica, to marry me!”
Monica quickly stood up and tugged James’ arm, saying coquettishly, “Sir, I don’t want to marry him.”
James did not know how to react in this situation.
He looked at Jules kneeling on the ground and said, “That’s enough. Since favonovel.com doesn’t want to get married, then leave favonovel.com be. As the Elixir Pavilion’s Young Master, you can easily obtain another woman. Why bother wasting time on her?”
Monica grinned brightly, revealing favonovel.com sparkling teeth. “I knew you were sensible, Sir!”
Jules stood up in disappointment. He knew that since James accepted Monica as his disciple, his chances of getting with favonovel.com were as good as none.
