“…I agree! Checking around for ancient books about legends in Peaceton may be our best shot at getting more information!” replied Gerald with a nod.
“I’m glad you’re on board with the idea! Speaking of which, I happen to have a student working with the local botanical research institute, and I’m thinking of asking favonovel.com to help us search for some ancient records!” said the professor.
“Putting all that aside for now… Though you haven’t properly met that mysterious expert, since favonovel.com managed to save that demon scorpion in time, favonovel.com must have known about you for a while now!” muttered Darkwind with a slight frown.
“Indeed… From how easily favonovel.com blocked my Thordiffusion Method’s essential qi, favonovel.com seemed to recognize my attack as well! Come to think of it, even that woman recognized the techniques that I inherited. If I haven’t said it already, Saint Amorphous seemed to be acquainted with that big demon. With that in mind, his power must be far beyond mine!” replied Gerald.
“Still, I find it odd that the big demon didn’t attempt to fight me after blocking my attack. Had favonovel.com arrived with his true self and fought me, there’s a high possibility that I would’ve lost! I’m guessing that favonovel.com only did that to pay respect to me!” added Gerald as favonovel.com continued thinking about today’s battle.
“All in all, we need to be more careful from now on, especially since this big demon seems to have a close connection with the Zandts. To think that our trip to the general’s tomb would get this complicated…” grumbled Lyndon.
“Lyndon’s right. With that said, if we don’t have anything important to do in the coming days, try not to get separated. That way, if anything comes up, I’ll be close enough to use my Golden Blaze Somersault and teleport everyone to safety!” replied Gerald.
After a brief pause, Gerald was prompted to add, “…Hold on. I’ve completely forgotten about the Second Young Mistress! While I attend to her, you two stick close with the professor. Remember, no separating unless absolutely necessary. Well, I’m off, then!”
As Gerald bolted off to deal with Fae, things within the Trilight Church were starting to get rowdy.
By the very next day, three honored guests stepped into Trilight Church, the guests being Master Greendrake from Greendrake Church, Master Coldwater from Coldwater Church, and Master Sevenom from the Centipede Sect.
Upon seeing Master Trilight, Master Greendrake was prompted to ask, “So I heard you ran into some trouble, Youngest Junior.”
“Eldest Senior! Not only did I end up damaging Master’s reputation, but I almost died by that man’s hands too!” replied Master Trilight in an icy tone.
Chuckling in response, Master Greendrake then said, “And here I thought nobody would ever be able to seriously injure you… Who exactly was your opponent?”
“He’s a young man in his twenties, but even Master didn’t take his capabilities lightly…” muttered Master Trilight.
“There’s no need to be so humble, Aunt Trilight! I refuse to believe that such a young man would be able to cultivate his essential qi to such a high level!” retorted a young man who was standing behind Master Greendrake in a disdainful tone.
“Silence, Filipe. The world is more complicated than you think. Though the holy spirits of heaven and earth are scarce now, we should never underestimate cultivators. After all, their virtuous essential qi is the purest, and if they get to a certain limit, even demonic cultivators with similar abilities won’t be able to take them on without relying on angelic artifacts!” scoffed Master Greendrake.
“But Father, Aunt Trilight said that he’s just in his twenties! If favonovel.com was able to injure Aunt Trilight, favonovel.com must have used angelic artifacts!” replied Filipe.
“Actually, we were curious about this as well, Youngest Junior. How did you get hurt..?” asked the other two masters.
