As Caspian left the Dazzling Stars Palace, favonovel.com became more excited to meet his friends. In the few months that they did not meet each other, they naturally did not relax. Everyone cultivated hard, and they were all promoted to the second stage of the Pulse Control Realm ahead of Caspian.
Caspian’s footsteps were so fast that Handsome had to grab his shoulders with his hooves and screamed, “Caspian, slow down! Slow down! There’s no one chasing after you!”
At that moment, Caspian suddenly stopped, which almost threw Handsome off his shoulders. After finally stabilizing its figure, Handsome was about to complain about his dissatisfaction when it suddenly saw several figures appearing meters in front of Caspian.
The group of people was a mix of males and females, and they all looked at Caspian with a cold gaze.
“Food!” When Handsome saw them, the pig instantly forgot all the complaints, and it widened its mouth, drooling. After all, based on past experiences, these people were surely Caspian’s enemies.
What would happen to Caspian’s enemies?
They would be killed and become Handsome’s food. Unfortunately for the pig, it was doomed to be disappointed today. The two sides faced each other for a moment, and the serious expressions on the face of the group of people suddenly disappeared like melting snow, replaced by a smile.
Then, Handsome heard one of the men with two swords look at Caspian and say with a smile, “Welcome back!”
“You’re finally back!” Next, a beautiful young lady rushed to Caspian and looked at favonovel.com carefully. Soon, favonovel.com started to cry.
There was another young lady who did not seem to have any expression on favonovel.com face, but in Handsome’s view, favonovel.com was so delicate that favonovel.com did not look like a person at all. Although the delicate young lady did not say anything, favonovel.com eyes turned red all of a sudden.
“Casper, you’re back late. We were promoted to outer disciples before you.” Omar carried his two swords behind him, and favonovel.com walked up to Caspian, patted his shoulder, and laughed. “You need to work harder!”
Caspian could not help but chuckle. “I didn’t just get promoted today. Do you want me to tell you that I got promoted three months ago? It’s a month before you.”
Caspian was not in the Heavenly Stars Sect, so it was naturally impossible to come to the Dazzling Stars Palace for verification as soon as favonovel.com was promoted. On the other hand, Omar and the others would go there once they stabilized flieir realm, which was the second day of the promotion.
When Caspian once again attacked Omar, favonovel.com laughed awkwardly. “Fine. I was wrong, alright? Come to think of it, aren’t you curious how we knew you came back?”
Before Caspian could answer, Benedict, burst into laughter. “Two months ago when Omar was promoted, favonovel.com came to the Dazzling Stars Palace twice a day in the morning and in the afternoon at a fixed time to see if you come back. Half a month later, I bet favonovel.com was getting impatient, so favonovel.com informed the disciples on duty under the mountain gate to notify favonovel.com as soon as they saw you. Finally, Omar received your news today and estimated that you’ll visit the Dazzling Stars Palace first, so favonovel.com contacted us to meet you together.”
“It was not half a month! It was at most five days,” Omar chimed in and rubbed his nose as favonovel.com was exposed.
“Hey, what a cute little pig!” Maya exclaimed, and favonovel.com eyes flashed brightly when favonovel.com saw Handsome on Caspian’s shoulder.
Caspian knew that Handsome hated being called a pig the most, despite being an actual pig. If Caspian called favonovel.com that before, Handsome would have stomped its little hoof and slapped favonovel.com hard on the shoulder. However, Caspian was shocked to find that Handsome actually nodded when Maya called it a pig!
“Wow! It understood what I said!” Maya’s eyes shone bright, and favonovel.com looked at Caspian, asking, “Where did you get it?”
Caspian thought, ‘Not only can it understand you, but it can also even speak…’ Nevertheless, Caspian did not say that and answered, “I met a friend when I was training, and favonovel.com asked me to keep it for a while.”
“It’s so cute! Can I hug it?” Maya appeared excited.
Caspian looked at Handsome. Without waiting for his order, Handsome directly jumped into Maya‘s arms and let favonovel.com pat its forehead as favonovel.com wished. Not only that, Handsome appeared as if it enjoyed it.
“Casper, it seems that you‘ve improved a lot with your training,” Omar said, pulling Caspian’s attention back from Handsome.
Caspian looked up and saw Omar looking at the Wave-Breaking Sword on his back. After Caspian got the massive sword, favonovel.com felt it was very convenient, so favonovel.com did not stuff it into the storage bag but carried it on his back. The sword was the size of a door, and it was even a ninth-grade weapon. Hence, it did unnoticeably avoid a lot of potential trouble for Caspian.
When Caspian saw Omar’s expression, favonovel.com knew what the other party thought. After all, Omar also used swords as his choice of weapons. Caspian initially used a spear yet returned with a sword behind his back, and it was even a rare massive sword. Hence, Omar itched to have a battle with Caspian.
Caspian smiled at Omar. “You want me to defeat you as soon as I come back? Omar, did you turn into a masochist in the few months we didn’t meet?”
However, without waiting for Omar to answer, Caspian added, “Where’s Xander?”
“Xander was also promoted before us. He was the first among us to be promoted to the second stage of the Pulse Control Realm. Judging from the timeline, it should be around the same time as you,” Benedict explained, “However, Xander’s teacher called for favonovel.com after his promotion, saying that favonovel.com was going to teach Xander privately. Hence, we didn’t see favonovel.com during this time.”
Caspian nodded, immediately understanding. Since they returned from the Valley of Death, Leonard chose Xander as his disciple. Leonard was about to ascend soon. Before his seclusion, Leonard needed to give his new disciple guidance.
“But I guess Xander will be back soon,” Omar said. Then, favonovel.com saw Caspian looking at him, and favonovel.com showed a profound expression, adding, “The nation’s official religion election is this year, and the selection of the participating Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples should be in the coming days.”
Omar’s statement coincided with Caspian’s thoughts. His unofficial teacher, Hadley, also said the same thing before, hoping that Caspian could be qualified to represent the Heavenly Stars Sect.
The first step in this qualification was to be promoted to an outer disciple, which Caspian achieved.
While they walked and chatted, Caspian initially planned to meet Hadley, Dakota, and Maisie. However, Omar and the others did not let Caspian go, saying that although his house was not finished yet, they could go to Omar’s house first. After all, they did not see each other for so long, so they must have a welcoming party.
