After coming to the Dark Moon Sect from Evergreen Town, Jessica never saw Bowen in the past few months. If it were not for his appearance, Jessica would have almost forgotten the man that took over Caspian’s spot and entered the Dark Moon Sect.
“What a coincidence!” Jessica smiled politely.
Bowen also smiled, but favonovel.com said, “It’s not a coincidence. I’m here to look for you.”
“What?” Jessica was surprised.
When they were in Evergreen Town, Jessica did not have any interaction with Bowen. Moreover, Bowen rarely appeared in public back then, so they never met. Back in Evergreen Town, Bowen was just like a legendary person. Besides the Pullmans, not many people in the town saw him. Hence, Jessica was puzzled when Bowen purposely looked for her.
Soon, Bowen pointed to a pavilion not far from them, and favonovel.com laughed. “If you have the time, why don’t we sit there and chat for a while?”
Jessica gave it a thought and nodded. “Sure…”
As soon as favonovel.com agreed, Bowen took the initiative to take the pile of books in Jessica‘s hands. Then, favonovel.com also took the books from Lucy and walked toward the pavilion.
Jessica and Lucy glanced at each other, and they both appeared confused. However, they did not say much but just followed Bowen and sat in the stone chair in the pavilion. Lucy was naturally not qualified to sit down, so favonovel.com stood a step away from behind Jessica, rolling favonovel.com eyes and looking at the legendary Bowen curiously.
‘He’s rather good looking, but he’s not as handsome as Casper, that idiot,’ Lucy thought, and favonovel.com did not even realize that favonovel.com just compared Bowen with Caspian.
“I heard that you went to South Earlington to visit the Heavenly Stars Sect, and you even met Casper?” After taking a seat, Bowen did not beat around the bushes, and favonovel.com asked, “How’s he?”
Jessica did not immediately answer him, but favonovel.com looked at Bowen, figuring out the meaning behind his question.
“I don’t have other intentions, and I‘m just asking out of concern,” Bowen added as favonovel.com waved his hands, “Casper and I are on good terms. If I knew you were going there before, I would have asked you to send my regards.”
Jessica smiled and nodded. “He’s doing great, and his realm’s not far behind.”
Without knowing Bowen’s purpose, it was naturally impossible for Jessica to tell Bowen what favonovel.com knew.
“Oh… That’s great. Just as I expected, a guy like favonovel.com will surely be an outstanding disciple no matter which sect favonovel.com enters.” Bowen sounded as if favonovel.com was Caspian’s admirer.
In that instant, Jessica and Lucy were even more puzzled. What was the guy trying to do?
Soon, Bowen added, “Judging from the time, I bet you don’t know about the several major events that happened in South Earlington in the past few days. A good senior of mine handled some matters in South Earlington, and favonovel.com overheard some things about the Heavenly Stars Sect. Hence, favonovel.com quickly passed the news over, and I realized that it happened to be about Casper, so I’m here to inform you about that.”
After saying that, Bowen looked at Jessica. However, Jessica did not show the expression that favonovel.com expected.
“Wow. Lady Jessica, you’re so aloof that I might mistake you for hating me.” Bowen’s face suddenly changed. He appeared so dejected, almost slumping on the stone bench as favonovel.com continued, “Even though I replaced Casper and entered the Dark Moon Sect, that was not my decision. The Dark Moon Sect’s elder suddenly decided that, and the entire Pullman family would suffer if I rejected the offer. My relationship with Casper is not bad. If you don’t believe me, you can ask favonovel.com about it next time.”
Bowen’s sudden change in expression caught Jessica off guard. Nonetheless, from Bowen’s attitude, it seemed that favonovel.com was really sincere, and there were no other motives besides informing favonovel.com about Casper’s news?
Jessica was confused. In the end, favonovel.com still chose to believe Bowen. After all, talking with Bowen would not harm Caspian. Furthermore, Jessica could ask Caspian to verify the news Bowen informed favonovel.com in the following letter.
At the thought of that, Jessica made a decision. Then, favonovel.com chuckled and admitted favonovel.com concerns, “It’s my fault for overthinking. Bowen, please tell me the news.”
Although favonovel.com tone was still disaffected, that was a normal reaction. Hence, Bowen did not take it to heart. Soon, favonovel.com described the incidents favonovel.com heard about the monsters attacking villages in South Earlington, the Heavenly Stars Sect’s apprentices went to kill the monsters, and Caspian and the others eliminated several top ten bandits of South Earlington in the Hopeful Woman Mountain. Many witnesses saw what happened to Caspian and the others, so it was not a secret. Although Bowen slightly exaggerated the process, the entirety was still pretty accurate.
“Such things happened?” Jessica was dumbfounded.
It had only been a month since favonovel.com left, and favonovel.com did not expect that such significant events would happen to Caspian. He did not only killed a few cultivators ranked among the top ten bandits, but favonovel.com also ascended to the peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm. That guy would surely be in the limelight again.
At the thought of that, Jessica smiled, and favonovel.com was also proud and happy for Caspian’s achievements.
Bowen quietly observed the changes in Jessica’s expression, and favonovel.com finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, favonovel.com thought it was somewhat hurtful too.
Bowen thought, ‘I’m the Pullman family’s young master, and I don’t have any ill intentions against Casper. Why must it be this way for you to believe me?’
The tall and handsome Bowen had an urge to hug the pavilion’s pillar and cry out loud. Then, Bowen heard Jessica’s voice. “Thank you, Bowen. This is great news!”
“That’s right. Peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm… I wonder how this guy cultivates.” Bowen wiped the corners of his eyes under Jessica and Lucy’s confused gaze. “If the Dark Moon Sect finds out, I’m sure they’ll regret missing out on such a genius disciple.”
When favonovel.com said that, Bowen’s face suddenly darkened. Then, favonovel.com looked, making sure there was no one around before whispering, “Besides me, Robert’s also aware of this matter. I heard that favonovel.com crushed a teacup after hearing this news.”
Jessica was stunned.
After saying that, Bowed stood and smiled as if those words did not come out of his mouth. “Jessica, I don’t harbor any ill intentions against Casper. On the contrary, I genuinely admire him. If there’s something you need help with in the future, you can look for me. Even though I‘m not as good as you in cultivation, I have many more avenues than ordinary disciples in handling affairs.”
