Caspian looked at everyone. Sebastian appeared solemn, whereas Yohan and Nana seemed gloomy. When Caspian turned to Heidi, his heartstrings were tugged.
Heidi was also looking at Caspian, and favonovel.com eyes filled with helplessness, miserableness, pleas, and panic… Finally, tears filled favonovel.com eyes, and favonovel.com was about to cry. Heidi seemed to want to beg Caspian to reject Asher’s request, but favonovel.com understood Asher’s powerful background, and favonovel.com was unwilling to let Caspian be dragged into this unnecessary disaster. Hence, Heidi also felt somewhat miserable.
Caspian let out a soft sigh.
Everyone around them felt their heart sink, but Asher‘s face was instantly lit up with joy. Then, Caspian turned to Asher and asked, “Are you talking to me?”
When favonovel.com said that, everyone was dumbfounded.
Asher even gasped, and favonovel.com was immediately angered. “Brat! What do you think you’re doing!”
“Maisie never forced me to do anything, so who do you think you are?” Caspian looked at Asher and sneered, “I dare you to repeat it!”
Caspian’s tone was unfriendly, and his face was aloof. Caspian appeared more ferocious than Asher, causing Asher to be at a loss for words. Then, favonovel.com kept looking at Caspian and Sebastian back and forth.
When Sebastian and the others saw that, favonovel.com was surprised. They all knew that Asher had great support, and seeing that favonovel.com was frightened by a disciple at a lower realm than him, they were in disbelief too. Nonetheless, a few of them were not aware of Asher’s personality. Even though favonovel.com was arrogant and domineering due to his background, Asher was also a paranoid person. Moreover, Caspian’s current attitude did not appear as if favonovel.com was bluffing, and it was as if favonovel.com really had someone supporting favonovel.com at the back.
Asher was also puzzled. Generally, if disciples needed help to complete a mission, they would choose people of the same realm as it would be easier to work together. If they were to bring someone lower-ranking than them, it would be either because they wanted to help them, or they wanted to take the opportunity to please the lower-ranking disciple, who had a great background.
When Caspian said those words, Asher naturally thought of the second possibility. This brat might have someone else backing favonovel.com up.
However, Asher would not leave just like that. Otherwise, if words spread out that favonovel.com was scared by an apprentice, Asher would become a laughing stock. So, Asher snorted, “Why don’t you tell me which Maisie is it?”
Nevertheless, favonovel.com did not mention words like a brat or b*stard, anymore.
Then, Caspian took out a messenger from his storage sack. When Asher saw his action, his eyes flashed with brilliance. Although storage bags were common among higher-ranking disciples, they were still rare items. This time, Caspian simply took one out, and whether favonovel.com deliberately did it or otherwise, Asher noticed that Caspian seemed to have two more storage bags with him. Seeing this, Asher could not help but gasp. He only had one storage bag even after so long.
Then, Caspian took the messenger that Maisie gave favonovel.com and fumbled with it. Next, favonovel.com cast a sideways glance at Asher, asking, “Why don’t you pressure me again?”
“Elder Dakota!” When favonovel.com saw the unique pattern on the messenger, Asher’s heart beat wildly, taking a step back as favonovel.com felt his scalp tingle. If it were an ordinary messenger, Asher would just let it be. However, its pattern proved that this messenger could only be used and owned by the Heavenly Stars Sect elders. Not only that, but it was also a messenger belonging to Dakota, who was famous for protecting others.
In a split second, Asher’s face turned from white to red, red to livid, and turned white once again.
When Sebastian saw this, favonovel.com took a step forward and said, “Asher, we know that time given to complete a task is limited. If you’re busy, we won’t want to delay you anymore. Let’s meet up again in the sect.”
Sebastian gave Asher a way out.
Asher‘s expression kept changing, and it appeared as if favonovel.com wanted to explode in anger. Nonetheless, when favonovel.com saw the messenger that Caspian was fumbling around with, Asher held back. Then, favonovel.com took a deep breath and looked at Sebastian coldly, “Since that’s the case, I’ll get going. Sebastian, the earth fiend list competition is next month, and I’m looking forward to learning your Pointing to the Stars.”
That was a challenge. However, Sebastian naturally did not have a reason to be afraid, and favonovel.com cupped his hands and said, “See you around.”
Later, Asher swept his gaze across their faces. If his gaze were to materialize, it would be like an iron brushing, brushing off the skin from everyone’s face. Finally, Asher glared at Caspian before leaving angrily.
Caspian appeared unbothered, but once Asher left, favonovel.com lowered his eyes, and a cold expression flashed in them.
As soon as Asher left, the atmosphere became relaxed.
Then, Heidi quickly expressed favonovel.com gratitude to Caspian. She knew that if it were not for Caspian, favonovel.com would end up in an unimaginable situation. Once they entered the Flaming Crows Ridge, no one could guarantee what might happen.
“Casper, I’m sorry about that difficult situation.”
Sebastian naturally knew Caspian’s dilemma at that time. Nonetheless, as Caspian ended up helping them, Sebastian and the others were friendlier toward Caspian now. If it were to say they approached Caspian initially in the hope of currying favor with Maisie, they treated Caspian as one of them after that incident.
Caspian shook his head and smiled. “It’s nothing. I’m only using Maisie‘s name to scare him, and I’ll just explain it to favonovel.com later. Sebastian, if you want to thank me, then give me the Pointing to the Stars Asher mentioned just now.”
Caspian would never let himself suffer any losses. Since favonovel.com helped them from the disaster just now, Caspian naturally wanted something in return. Besides, Asher might find ways to deal with Caspian for provoking him. Hence, it was better for favonovel.com to nip it in the bud.
Sebastian was stunned. Perhaps favonovel.com did not expect that the humble and courteous Caspian also had a shameless and greedy side. He quickly returned to his senses and chuckled. “Casper, you have good eyes. As this martial skill can be shared with others, there’s no harm in teaching you too.”
As favonovel.com said that, Sebastian took out a small booklet from his storage bag and passed it to Caspian. “Pointing to the Stars is a middle-rank Earth Grade martial skill, and you can follow the instructions in this book to practice. If there‘s any question, you can come to me any time.”
Caspian took over the booklet and thanked Sebastian. Then, favonovel.com asked, “By the way, you’re in the same realm as Asher, right?”
“That’s right. We’re both mid-level second-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivators,” Sebastian replied as favonovel.com nodded.
Sebastian’s realm was the highest among the few people present, and the other three were in the entry-level second-stage Pulse Control Realm.
Once favonovel.com received an affirmative answer, Caspian asked the doubt in his heart, “Since you’re both in the same realm, why did I feel that you were under a lot of pressure when you were facing Asher? Does favonovel.com have any amazing skills?”
