Chapter 67 Chapter 67
'Better to handle this like a man. Full charge ahead!' Clark decided and grabbed the half empty jug of Beggar's Tear once more.
"I know that this thing can cure any external wound, Master Xu but i guess it's time to let you in on a little secret. This Beggar's Tear can also truly heal any internal injuries.
And it's just too coincidental that I happen to suffer from a mild inner injury from the dance that I had last with your daughter."
Clark uttered in all seriousness and cared not if this was true or not. At least he was good in faking and that was more than enough for this occasion.
He looked at the bewildered men and women around him and went on to say...
"I warmly invite everyone here once again to my upcoming wedding with your ever charming Princess Ning Xi.
Cheers to us all!" Clark said his piece and finished the remaining contents of the healing agent.
"Hmmm... I think Zi Lin sounds better to my ears. Well met, Madame Zi." Clark understood and chose to forego the use the surname of the man who has yet to look at him kindly for once.

"Can you tell what realm Master Clark has arrived at, General Xu."
Ning Bao whispered in the privacy of his throne room. Their special guest had just left for no more than 5 minutes and yet this king was still here, restless and in constant worry for the future.
"I can't fathom that wretched man's depths, Your Majesty." General Xu did not hide his feelings at all. He paused for a bit and continued by saying...
"But there is one thing I'm sure of. He is at least at the first stage of Foundation Establishment Realm." The good general shared his thoughts on the matter.
"What if i tell you that i could still sense his level earlier tonight?" Ning Bao muttered softly.
"Are you sure, Your Majesty?!" General Xu exclaimed in disbelief.
"Yes. That much I can be certain." Ning Bao affirmed once more and both men lapsed in uneasy silence for a long long time.
