Chapter 154 – Gandolf The White

Chapter 154 – Gandolf The WhiteIn the Leyan Family's airship, Anda was enjoying the scenery of the terrains below them while eating the food made by her disciple, Tasya.

It has been a few hours since they departed from the Holy Cat City and it was almost sunset. After a year, she was about to return to her sect. Looking back, there were many things that happened in the past year. She knew that after this, it would be uneventful for a while, until most likely seven years later.

"Master, how long will it take to reach the Mountain Dew Sect?" Tasya asked.

"If we travel at full speed, around ten days, but I'm going a little slower, so probably fourteen to fifteen days." Anda replied. It was their first time riding an airship, so she preferred going at a slower pace. Searᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Are we going to stay there for a long time?" Tasya asked again. To be honest, she wanted to continue working as a chef at the previous restaurant.

Anda smiled. How could she not know what her disciple was thinking? "We are not going to stay there for long. After settling some things, we are going back to Bara City. After all, that's the first base of our Leyan Family."

Although Leyvi and Anda decided to form their own cultivation family, they would still maintain affiliation with the Mountain Dew Sect. There have been plenty of such cases in the past. However, the sect would most likely be a little reluctant this time because she was the most talented alchemist of their sect and had just won the most prestigious Alchemy Competition in the South Region.

Realistically, they would want her to occupy an Elder position in the sect. However, she had prepared for all of this. The cooperation agreement with Pill Ascension Sect would be more than enough contribution to the sect for a long time. So, they wouldn't be able to complain even if they wanted to.

Most importantly, it wasn't like she and Leyvi were cutting ties with the Mountain Dew Sect. They would still be a part of the Mountain Dew Sect and continue to help the sect grow stronger. Furthermore, they have an airship now. Going back and forth between the two places would be much easier.

"Really? Yay!" She thought she was going to live around enormous mountains for a long time. She preferred the mansion in Bara City and the people there. Not to mention, she could live closer to Tal.

In front of a cabin,

"Hey, that country bumpkin and that sexy black girl have been in this cabin for a few hours. What are they doing?" Dorin asked.

"Hehe, what else? Of course, having fun. A virgin like you wouldn't understand." Hana teased her.

The four maids were keeping an eye on Dorin so that she wouldn't do anything stupid in the airship. Who knows what she might do because she thought this was a dream?

Dorin frowned. "Are you guys not a virgin anymore? How are you supposed to make men do your bidding if you're not a virgin? What a waste."

The four maids were dumbfounded as they wondered, "Who taught her this stupid life lesson?" At this moment, they knew that Dorin was far gone and couldn't be saved anymore. And since this girl was too dumb, they didn't want her to be near Leyvi to spare him from the trouble.

"Young Lady Dorin, let's go somewhere else. Don't disturb our husband from having fun. How about you try the food that our Tasya made? I guarantee you will become her fan after that." Fifi tried to get her away from here.

"Hmph, there's no way that little girl can cook better than the master chef in our house. However, this young lady will still try them. Let's go!" She was actually very hungry right now.

The four maids grinned. She would know soon that her master chef was nothing compared to Tasya. It would be best if Tasya's food could cure her stupidity, too.

Meanwhile, in another cabin.

"Grandpa Bana, how is your cultivation now? I feel like grandpa seems to look a bit younger now. Did you break through?" Tal asked.

He was playing chess with Bana. He had been his chess partner for a while now. Bana went from a complete newbie to a quite decent chess player. His play style was extremely defensive and if his opponents didn't score materials advantage over him by the time they enter the endgame, the chess game would most likely end up in a draw.

"Bababa! Do I? Of course it all is thanks to your master. Although I haven't broken through yet, it will be easier from now on. I'm filled with a lot of energy." Bana was extremely happy when Tal noticed he was regaining his youth slowly.

Although he encountered dangerous things he had never experienced before during the travels, his life had gotten way better. His daughter had married a great man, so he was much more carefree now.

In this continent, people rarely had a ceremony or a wedding when they get married, a simple vow or agreement between the couple was enough. Usually only those from big families or cultivators with high reputations held a wedding when they get married.

"Then how about Grandpa Bana accompany me to the Chess Tournament next year?" Tal suggested.

At first he wanted Leyvi to accompany him, but now, after learning about the importance of the Mystic Realm, he felt that his master should not waste his time and cultivate. Furthermore, seeing that Bana had improved so much in a short period, he was confident that Bana possessed great talent in chess. It was just a pity that he started playing so late in his life.

"No problem! Let me be the witness to the rise of the Legendary Chess Player, the Great Tal! Bababa!"

The Holy Cat City,

A white-haired and white-bearded middle-aged man arrived above the city just after sunset.

"Hoo? Looks like they have dealt with the crisis. That's good." He said while curling his beard. Usually, if a situation like this happened, he didn't have to come personally. Sending an envoy would be enough.

However, he received reports of the same situation happening in other regions. So, he figured that things were more serious than he expected and it wasn't just some Demonic Beasts attacking the cities like usual.

Unfortunately, their technology level hasn't reached the point where they could have long ranged communication easily. There were too many Qi disturbances and other interferences out there preventing an effective way of long-range communications. Even Beast Tamer's mental communication wouldn't work if the distance was too far apart.

Suddenly, a beautiful lady with a cat ears headband appeared near him.

"Protector Gandolf, you have come here personally." Caterina greeted him with respect, different from how she usually behave with most people.

How could she not? The person in front of her was one of the Cloud Continent's Protector, Gandolf the White! One of the strongest cultivators on the continent!

"Hohoho! Is that the culprit for what happened this time?" Gandolf was looking at the jar hanging by her belt.

"Yes, Protector Gandolf. He was using a martial skill that could revive dead bodies while using a formation that protect him and amplify his martial skill. According to the memories I acquired from his slave, they came from Makai Continent." Caterina explained.

"Hoo.... I see. That continent, huh?" Gandolf had a thoughtful expression.

"You know that continent, Protector?" She was curious.

"Hohoho, what I know is probably not more than you. As you know, we Protectors could only detect intruders if they are at my cultivation level and there have been quite a few intruders in the past a thousand years. One of them was from the Makai Continent. Of course, we beat most of them and execute a soul search for information. He should be from the Dark Hand Cult, right?"

Caterina nodded. She recalled that the most recent Soul Transformation intruder escaped successfully from the continent three years ago after destroying a sect. The motive was unclear.

"I thought so. There are only two big powers left on that continent after all."

"Protector, actually, there's only the Dark Hand Cult left. It's been like this for many decades." Caterina interrupted and corrected him.

Gandolf's white eyebrows raised, seemingly surprised. "Now that's a new information. I didn't expect the only force that went against the Dark Hand Cult had been wiped out."

"Protector....Uhh...We need a new formation." Caterina wasn't sure how to bring this topic up.

"Oh yeah, what happened to the formation? Tell me everything." He came here to deal with the threats and then lift up the lockdown, but he didn't expect the formation to disappear as a result.

Caterina immediately narrated everything that had happened.

"Leyvi Leyan? Hohoho! I see, I see..." Gandolf was visibly happy when he heard the story.

"Do you know him, Protector?" Caterina was curious. After all, she was interested in Leyvi.

"I am considering him to be my future successor, but I haven't asked him about it yet. He doesn't even know me. I'm just waiting for him to grow first." Gandolf replied as he happily played with his beard.

Caterina's eyes widened. Future successor? He has that much potential? All the Protectors are in the Soul Transformation realm. She herself knows how hard it is to reach that level.

After all, she was stuck at the peak of the Soul Formation realm for over a thousand years already.
