Chapter 164 - Reunion

After he was told where the message tower is, Jason pleaded with his mother to let go since there is no way he will be able to get the two to come to the capital without communicating with them and after some pleading, Clara finally decided to let him go. Later in the night, Jason sneaks out of the capital as he makes his way towards the location of the tower, and about an hour later, he was already standing before the tower but it was quite unfortunate that they were close for the day and Jason had to wait until dawn before he could go inside. 

Sending his request in the message tower was quicker than he expected. Making his way back to the capital, Jason makes his way back to the appointment where he saw Amanda and Hannah were discussing when they heard the sound of the door getting jammed.

"It took you long enough for you to get back or did you go somewhere else" asked Hannah as she looked at him.

Jason walked past them as he went to lay down to take a rest when Amanda suddenly asked.

"So how did it go".

"Good, now all that I have to do is just sit back and wait for them to come to me" replied Jason with a happy look.

"That is good to hear, at least you know that the message will be sent" said Amanda.

That evening in the Fox family, the grand elder was busy Studying when he felt the energy in the air become intense like the space around that region is going to break as an arrow appeared and pierce the wall close to where the grand elder was sitting. 

With a "hump" the grand elder was able to pull the arrow off the wall with a wave of his hand as it fell on his hand.

On the arrow was a little letter that was wrapped in it, taking it off the arrow, the grand elder begin to go through the content that was inside before letting out a breath of relief.

"Good thing they made it out alive, now what is it that he needed Austin's help with" mutter the grand elder before getting rid of the letter.

The same thing also happened in the Platton family at the time that the grand elder received his but unlike in Diana's case, the arrow almost pierces her on the leg if not for having a quick reflex.

"Who is so daring as to send me a message that would take my life" she said while pulling the arrow off the ground.

Opening the letter, Diana couldn't help but open her eyes wide in shock and let out a giggle before continuing to read the letter.

"I wonder what he needs my help with" said Diana before destroying the letter.

Two days later in the capital, there has been no incident about seeing dead bodies around the place and everyone seems to have forgotten about the matter except for the Wallace family.

"It's been two days now and there has been no attack on any of our members" said one of the young men. 

"Could it be that he was just passing by when he noticed Bosu and the others walking that late then decided to use them to boost his cultivation since no one will notice him" commented another member.

"I doubt that it could be that due to the uproar that he cause, he decided to lay low for the time being so I advice you guys should continue moving in a group of four" reply elder Kang.

"Alright elder Kang" they all replied before going out to do their stuff.

Around the evening when the moon is already out, knocking sounds begin to come from the door, and Hannah together with their mother couldn't help frown as they prepare to attack who it may be since they both know that Amanda won't be coming at this time of the day. 

"I think I know who it was" said Jason as he stood up from his meditation before running towards the down.

Who came into his view when the door was open was no other than Austin who was dressed in a hood. Seeing the person in front of him, Jason threw a fist forward as he tries to punch the stranger who is before him but as if anticipating that something like this is going to happen, Austin quickly swing his hand forward as he smacked Jason fist from the lower side which sends it upward before he dives at him as they fall back into the apartment while flipping his legs to kick the door closing it behind them in the process.

"It's me you dumb wit, is this what you need my help with. Attacking me on the outside when the Wallace family are searching all over the place for you" yell Austin as he pulls his hood down.

"It really is you my friend, why didn't say so in the beginning before forcing me to attack" said Jason with a chuckle before getting up from the ground and shaking hands with him.

Taking a closer look at Jason, Austin couldn't help but shake his head as he let out a little smile before saying.

"With the rate at which you are making a breakthrough, it would not be easy for me to catch up with you".

"Come on. You ain't doing bad yourself only been at the peak of the sixth stage" replied Jason with a chuckle.

"Now that I am here, do you mind telling me what you need my help with" asked Austin as he withdraw his hand. 

"We'll get to that when the other person arrives and as for the other stuff, did you have it with you" replied Jason before stretching his hand forward for Austin to hand it over.

"For you to request this much from the grand elder, I don't know why I have the feeling that it is going to be dangerous" said Austin before handing a ring over to him.

"Of course, it is going to be really dangerous, else why do I need your help with it if it were to be easy" reply Jason as he took the storage ring from him before checking the content that was inside.

Jason let out a satisfying nod before leading him forward to greet his mother as they went to sit by the side to discuss what has been happening in the Fox family territory and how Andrew and his gang were given the punishment of taking care of the hall. While they were chatting, another knocking came from the door and Jason went to get it only to see Diana looking as beautiful as ever with the injuries she incurred in the treasure vault being gone.

"Hello Diana, Long time no see" said Jason with a wide smile on his face as he usher her in.

"You tell me when you almost took my life with the message arrow" reply Diana as she rolled her eyes on him before going in.

Jason couldn't help but twitch his face in reply to Diana's words as he shut the door behind them.

'So the message tower cant be relied on to deliver a safe message. I guess I will try using it on my enemies next time' he thought to himself.

When Austin saw Jason leading the guest in, he couldn't help but stand up in amazement as he asked.

"You also asked her for help too".

"Sure since we are already friends and I trust her to the extent of telling her where I am hiding and let's not forget her ability to control the mystic lamp, what we are about to do will become much easier for us" reply Jason.

"What is it that we are about to do anyway" asked Diana happily.

"Looks like someone can't wait to go do something exciting" commented Jason with a chuckle.

"You bet I am, It's been really boring staying at home training all day without doing anything exciting" said Diana.

"By the way, how were you able to sneak past your family defense without being caught" asked Jason knowing fully well that there is no way that the Platton family won't let a talent like her out without any protection.

"I just went to the family head and requested for some days out to train and he granted me permission to go" reply Diana with a smile.

"Is it that simple or you are just making it sound like it is" asked Austin.

"Of course, it's not. Let's not go to that now and discuss what you want us to help you with" reply Diana.

"Yeah, now that she is here, don't you think it is about time you start talking" added Austin.

"What do you guys think about going to a ruin to hurt for treasures" asked Jason with a wide smile on his face as he waited for their reply.
