Chapter 21 - Leaving
"Wew, I was planning to leave after defeating them but who could have thought that he just gave up his ring and ran away." Davion picked up the ring and thought, "It is already getting night. I should return to the inn."
On the platform, Colton took Jacob and returned to their tent. Jacob finally woke up but started coughing up blood again. Seeing this Colton took out some pills and gave them to Jacob. A few minutes later, Jacob finally was able to talk. He asked, "Colton, did you see anything today?"
Listening to this, Colton got a sweat on his forehead. He immediately replied, "I didn't see anything today, I was just watching the ceremony."
Finally, Jacob could relax. When he was about to take out a healing pill from his ring, he noticed that his finger was empty. There was no ring. Seeing this he panicked, "Colton, where is my ring?"
Colton replied truthfully, "I gave your ring to that young man and traded with our lives."
Listening to this Jacob couldn't take it anymore and roared, "Ah...I had finally gotten that pill after exchanging my whole life savings. I thought that I could reach the middle stage of Qi refining." thinking about that pill, Jacob threw another mouth-full of blood and fainted.
After eating, Davion closed the door of his room and made sure that the inn was safe. He took out the ring that he obtained and looked at it carefully. It looked similar to his ring but was green in color and had a symbol of a sword on it.
"It looks like this storage ring is given by the sect. I think I should not open this ring here. In novels that I read; you might get tracked from the sect when opening it. Tomorrow I will be leaving this place and going to the Northern Mainland. After only reaching there, I will open it." Davion made up his mind.
"Also, this world is dangerous and only people with strength are respected. After I showed my strength, that disciple begged me and ran away. It looks like killing, looting, and fighting are common in this world. I managed to let them get away. But if next time something happens, then I must be prepared to kill." Davion made up his mind and steeled his resolve.
The next day, the city was very busy. But it was a little different from the previous days. Many people were leaving the gates. The ceremony was over at night. Many candidates who joined the sect were leaving for their new home and those people who couldn't get selected were returning back where they came from.
Davion finally came to the center of the city after packing all his things. He finally started to search for Isla. While he was searching for them, he again ran into Nisha and Oliver. It looked like they were discussing something. Seeing Davion, Nisha became happy and waved her hands. Oliver just nodded his head.
Davion said while smiling, "Who could have thought that I would get a chance to share the same carriage with a future immortal?"
Nisha smiled, then got a little worried, "So what about you?"
"I just joined a lower grade sect. Hehe" Davion was a little embarrassed.
While they were talking, Oliver interrupted them and said, "Nisha, we should get going. Miss Jasmine is waiting for you. They need to head back fast and report to their elders."
Nisha said goodbye and went with Oliver. Oliver didn't even say anything to Davion this time.
"Eh..it looks like he tried to establish a good relationship with me thinking that I could have good talent. But knowing that I had a garbage spiritual root, he just ignored me. It looks like if you don't have good talent and power then people don't even want to talk with you. It looks like my previous world was still better." Davion was in deep thought.
On the other side, Oliver said to Nisha, "You should care about your image. Strength and Potential are everything in this world. You should not care about him. He is just going to join a lower grade sect. With a grade 1 spiritual root, he can only join as a handyman disciple. You should know their status, right?"
Nisha bowed her head and replied, "Yes grandpa, but I hope that he can stay safe."
"Nisha, are you ready? We need to leave fast. Leo, Joel, and David are already on their way to their sects. I just waited for you to finish your work. We need to return fast and report to the elders."
While they were talking, they heard a strict voice coming from Jasmine. Her body looked pale and sick. It looks like she still hasn't recovered from her injuries.
She took out a talisman and crushed it. A few seconds later, a huge swan came from the sky. "Let's go, we need to leave."
"The world is getting into chaos." Jasmine sighed as she flew on her mount back to the sect with her junior sisters and Nisha on the back.
Seeing them leave, Oliver finally wiped his moist eyes. "I don't know when we will meet.. But I hope that you can find my daughter."
