Joshua took out a simple wooden box from his storage bag. After opening it, Caspian saw ginseng as thick as an adult’s arm inside the wooden box.
Then, Joshua’s heart bled as favonovel.com said, “This is a 120 year-old Purple Dragon King Ginseng. It has a good effect on blood circulation, muscle growth, and internal organs. I will give you…”
Joshua initially wanted to say that favonovel.com would give favonovel.com a few roots. After all, that was a legendary medicine, and a few roots were already a generous gift. Usually, Joshua would only consume at most three roots each month. However, favonovel.com did not expect Caspian to be 100 times faster than him!
Before Joshua could even finish his sentence, Caspian suddenly reached out and took the entire wooden box. Without waiting for Joshua’s reply, Caspian already put the box into his storage bag. Then, favonovel.com bowed and shouted, “Thank you for the gift, Joshua! With this Purple Dragon King Ginseng, I’ll surely recover fast.”
“I…” Joshua was stupefied. When favonovel.com recovered his senses, his chest undulated violently, and favonovel.com flew in a rage. Joshua spent much effort and asked someone to source the Purple Dragon King Ginseng for him. Initially, favonovel.com wanted to reserve it to condense his body and prepare for ascension, yet Caspian directly snatched it away.
Under everyone‘s watchful eyes and with an influential figure like Delmont around as well as so many Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples staring at him, Joshua‘s name would be ruined if favonovel.com regretted it now.
“I… I…” Joshua’s face was not as imposing as it was when favonovel.com first arrived. Instead, favonovel.com appeared dispirited, and even a fool would pity him.
”Thank you, Joshua. If I have great achievements in the nation‘s official religion election and bring glory to the Heavenly Stars Sect, I’ll give you the credit!” Caspian shouted again.
Each word favonovel.com said was like a dagger ruthlessly stabbing at Joshua‘s chest. Joshua, a Dark Moon Sect’s inner disciple, was humiliated in front of everyone, and his face was ashen from the rage. Then, favonovel.com violently spat out a mouthful of blood and weakly lay on the floor… Before Joshua passed out, favonovel.com could only remember the fake surprise on Caspian‘s face, Terrence and the rest panicked, and the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples rushed to favonovel.com and supported him.
‘Casper… I won’t let you off the hook…’ That was the only thought left in Joshua’s mind.
Caspian watched indifferently as a group of disciples assisted Joshua, Terrence, and the others under Delmont‘s instruction. Then, favonovel.com heard a snort from behind him. Caspian blinked and hurriedly turned around, putting on a remorseful expression as favonovel.com said, “Master Delmont, do punish me for causing trouble to the Heavenly Stars Sect.”
Delmont snorted louder that time. “Casper, do you think I won’t punish you for retreating just to advance?”
“I didn’t have such a thought,” Caspian answered truthfully, “I might fearlessly walk on the road of immortality, but I’m only unafraid of strong powers, and I surely respect the elders. Although I followed my heart this time, it was indeed logically wrong. Just as when you asked me before if there are things, I know that I won’t get rewards or even be punished for doing them, but I’ll still do them. This is one of the examples.”
Delmont quietly stared at Caspian with a stern expression. Then, favonovel.com replied, “If that‘s the case, why don’t you explain what exactly happened at that time!”
“I’m well prepared for that,” Caspian took out a memory inscription, “This inscription recorded everything that happened at that time. If anyone from the sect asks about the matter, you can show them this, Master Delmont.”
After giving Delmont the memory inscription, Caspian gave a complete narrative of the incident, and favonovel.com did not exaggerate or add extra plot but explained the objective facts. Later, Caspian took out the Purple Dragon King Ginseng favonovel.com snatched from Joshua.
“I don’t know how to use this, so I plan on passing it to the sect to let them handle it.”
Upon hearing Caspian’s description, Delmont understood what happened, and it indeed had nothing to do with Caspian. It was only a misunderstanding due to jealousy. If they wanted to insist that Caspian was at fault, favonovel.com was only to blame for being too strong. The three Dark Moon Sect’s disciples of the same realm as Caspian were just like papers in front of him. Nonetheless, which sect would dislike their disciples being too strong? That was a matter worth celebrating. Moreover, Caspian did not cause the problem.
Delmont glared at Caspian. “Just. keep your little thoughts away. The Heavenly Stars Sect might not be the lead of the major sects in Earlington of Efrax, but the disciples under our sect won’t fight over the hundred-year-old Purple Dragon King Ginseng.”
Caspian giggled and kept the wooden box away. “Thank you for the gift, Master Delmont!”
Delmont replied indifferently, “The sect will help you take care of this matter, so you don’t have to worry as no one will dare to simply bother the Heavenly Stars Sect’s people in South Earlington.”
Then, his tone turned solemn, “However, don’t you forget what you said before. You must bring glory for the Heavenly Stars Sect in the nation’s official religion election next year.”
“What?” Caspian was stunned. He only said that to piss Joshua off, and it was proven to be effective. However, Caspian did not expect that favonovel.com would join the nation’s official religion election selection.
“What? Do you think I’m joking?” Delmont glared at him, “You must at least be a peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator to join the nation’s official religion election. Although you’re only a mid-level first -stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator, you don’t have to be pressured. Around the end of summer and early autumn this year, the sect will conduct a selection among apprentices. If you can perform well at that time, the sect will choose you even though you’re a mid-level first-stage. Then, the sect will also invest resources in you and push you to the peak first-stage.”
As favonovel.com said that, Delmont paused. Then, favonovel.com added solemnly, “Casper, don’t disappoint those who have great expectations of you.”
Caspian was shocked by Delmont’s words.
After pondering for a while, Caspian bit the bullet and asked, “Master Delmont, may I know who those people are?”
Delmont did not seem keen to answer Caspian’s question, and favonovel.com only shook his head. “There are only three months left until the upcoming selection. Although it’s soon, you have two thousand sect contribution points. Besides, you won a lot of rewards in the previous ranking competition, right?”
Next, Delmont patted Caspian’s shoulder. “Work hard! Some things won’t benefit you yet if I tell you now. However, once you reach the realm and you’re strong enough, you’ll naturally understand.”
After saying that, Delmont turned around and left, leaving Caspian, who was deep in his thoughts. However, just as favonovel.com walked a few steps, Delmont seemed to recall something, and favonovel.com turned his head over and said, “The Purple Dragon King Ginseng has a strong medicinal property. Usually, an ordinary cultivator will first use a few roots, and once they’re used to it, they’ll turn it into medicine or soak in alcohol for consumption. However, you have boundless energy, so you can try and twist it. Perhaps you’ll find a pleasant surprise.”
Then, Delmont left without stopping. Soon, favonovel.com disappeared from Caspian’s line of sight.
