On the way down the mountain, Maya, and Caspian talked about what happened in the past few days. The most important matter was that the Johnson brothers’ death was confirmed. When Caspian heard that they only found the Johnson brothers’ destroyed limbs, but there was no one else, favonovel.com was shocked. Soon, favonovel.com sighed regretfully.
“If that’s the case, Ozul and Liliana still managed to flee…”
Maya also sighed. “They escaped even the Killer Waves and Earthquakes Mine’s explosion… They’re really lucky.”
Nonetheless, Caspian and Maya were not worried that others would take their credit for killing those two. First of all, when Caspian and the others protected everyone and fought with the Johnson brothers and the others in the Hopeful Woman Mountain, dozens of Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples were watching. Then, that was Caspian, Xander, and the others’ credits, and if any of the apprentices lied, they would immediately be killed by the sect’s elders.
“There’s no other news about the matter, but the rewards for killing the Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples, Tigreal, and the rest should be given out in these few days,ll Maya appeared excited, “I wonder what’s included.”
“No matter how many rewards we’ll get, isn’t nothing more than the ones on the bounty list? Is there anything else?” Caspian’s eyes flickered.
“You’re right,” Maya nodded, “Our rewards will surely include those on the bounty list, but the situation at that time is special. After all, we wiped out dozens of Ninth Sacred Sect’s disciples, and among them were the top five apprentices. Not only that, but we’ve also severely injured and killed a few South Earlington’s top ten bandits. It’s rare to achieve such major achievements, so, normally, we’ll get additional rewards.”
When Caspian heard the explanation, favonovel.com immediately understood. The situation was the same as when favonovel.com led the army to battle before. The task was to block the opponent’s reinforcements, but Caspian also slashed the opponent’s chief while completing that mission. Hence, favonovel.com would naturally be rewarded more.
As the two of them chatted, they walked down the mountain.
At that time, a slender figure walked on a path in the distance. Solana seemed to have sensed something, and favonovel.com looked over. Then, favonovel.com found Caspian and Maya walking down the hill. Solana watched quietly as Caspian walked away, and favonovel.com gaze was profound and unreadable. Nonetheless, favonovel.com stood there until Caspian disappeared from favonovel.com sight before continuing on favonovel.com journey.
Soon, a few apprentices walked past Solana, and they cursed angrily as they walked. As they passed by Solana, their ruthless commentaries reached favonovel.com ears.
“Did you hear? Casper’s in the limelight again!”
“Right! Tsk tsk! He’s so amazing. He’s only been in the Heavenly Stars Sect for about half a year. It’s crazy!”
“I bet he’s getting a lot of rewards for his great contributions.”
“Sigh… There’s no point in comparing us to him, but I’m still so jealous.”
“What’s there to be jealous about? If it weren’t for his relationship with Maisie, favonovel.com wouldn’t be in this position! You know who’s Maisie, right?”
“Maisie Pine?”
“That’s right. I wonder what favonovel.com did to win Maisie’s favor… Then, favonovel.com received so many resources from that and improved so quickly.”
“So favonovel.com turns out to be a man that‘s living on a woman?!”
Those words contained unabashed jealousy and mockery. Those unaware of the truth might think Caspian and those disciples had a deep hatred that was worth being ridiculed by them behind his back.
Solana paused in favonovel.com tracks, and favonovel.com looked at the few people who just passed by her. Those disciples were already in the peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm, and Solana could not help but wonder how long they had been stuck in that realm.
With no sign of progress and seeing that Caspian quickly catching up to them, they naturally had a deep resentment for the rising star.
After pondering for a moment, Solana quietly followed those few disciples. First, the disciples went to the Astrea Pavilion, seemingly to exchange things. Then, they walked around the Heavenly Stars Sect, sending off a few of them.
During the entire journey, Solana kept following them from a distance, quietly and with no expression on favonovel.com face. More than two hours later, they appeared to be done with their errands, and the remaining disciples returned to their courtyard. When the last person entered the compound and was about to close the door, a white and slender palm suddenly stopped him. The few disciples were puzzled and surprised as they watched Solana walk into the courtyard, close the door, and lock it. Then, Solana turned to face those disciples, buttoned the cuffs of favonovel.com dress, folded favonovel.com hands, and bowed slightly.
When favonovel.com raised favonovel.com head again, favonovel.com eyes were still calm. Suddenly, favonovel.com said, “I’m Solana Gibson, a mid-level first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator, and I’m here to challenge all of you.”

During that period, Caspian and Maya went down the mountain to buy the goat. There were many towns around the Heavenly Stars Sect. Although they were cultivators, their daily expenses in the sect were still a lot. After all, there were only a few cultivators who could rely on devouring the essence of the world to maintain their body functions. Most of them would still need to eat and drink, and it would never be enough if they relied on the animals raised by the Heavenly Stars Sect.
The Heavenly Stars Sect had a special entrance to manage the daily transportation of ingredients from down the mountains. Due to that, Caspian and Maya quickly bought the goat favonovel.com needed.
Caspian did not understand Little Candy’s appetite. Hence, Caspian decided to get three goats instead, just in case. That way, even if there were a shortage, the three goats would be able to support the situation for a moment, and Caspian would have time to get more goats.
Caspian naturally would not place the three goats into the Earring of Echo in front of Maya. Hence, favonovel.com took a willow twig and drove the three goats up the mountain path. However, it was unsuitable to return from the Heavenly Stars Sect’s main gate, so Caspian and Maya detoured slightly and went up from the side of the mountain.
Although it was a side gate, the entrance was still more glamorous than other sects’ main entrance as the Heavenly Stars Sect was still the celestial giant of Earlington of Efrax. However, as favonovel.com climbed up the stone paths, Caspian saw a young man kneeling not far from the entrance. The person appeared to be in his twenties, but Caspian knew that it was just a trace of the hardships of life on his face, and his true age was estimated to be around seventeen, not much older than himself.
Caspian was in Heavenly Stars Sect for so long, and despite rarely walking down the hills, that was the first time favonovel.com met such a situation. Seeing that the other party was clearly exhausted and trembling but still stubbornly standing there, Caspian curiously asked the guarding disciple what went on.
“Oh? That guy is Samson Clifford.” When the guarding disciple said the name, there was a strange expression on his face.
