Chapter 1340 Friends and Followers are not 'Same'
Elder Boron guessed that Ajax thought about being a follower. So, he continuously said one thing after another about being a follower and gave a definition for 'Follower'.
'...'
As for Ajax, he was speechless hearing Elder Boron's definition of the follower.
"As long as you become the Emperor of the world, all the cultivators in the Purple stone world, by default, will become your followers."
Elder Boron was a little agitated; however, he controlled his emotions as he continued, "However, not every follower will follow you unconditionally and they might even betray you. So, you need trusted followers who have your back in a fight. Just like how your father had me."
After saying that, Elder Boron didn't say anything more as he remained silent while standing in his place.
"..."
Ajax looked at Elder Boron for a moment before replying, "I understood what you are saying, grandpa. I will remember these words."
"Good. As long as you remember these words, it is good."
Elder Boron was happy that Ajax understood what he was trying to tell. So, he nodded his head.The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l-B1n.
"However, for me, followers, friends and family are not the same and I am not planning to make everyone into my followers."
Just as Elder Boron was feeling happy about Ajax's understanding, Ajaxs's reply made him speechless.
'Sigh...like father, like son. No one can change their minds once they decide. I will let him do whatever he thinks is right as he is no longer a little kid from the orphanage.'
Elder Boron knew that there was nothing he could do and decided to leave it to Ajax.
"Brother Jason, Damon and Hector, let's stay as friends just like before."
Ajax said in a low voice fearing that he might make Elder Boron furious because he knew Elder Boron was a short-tempered cultivator.
"What did you say?"
As expected, Elder Boron became furious as he shouted at Ajax, "I can't handle a demon invasion? Really? Grandson, you underestimate a lot, don't you?"
"It's nothing like that."
Ajax didn't get used to calling Elder Boron using 'Grandpa'. So, he avoided using 'Grandpa' and tried to calm Elder Boron.
"The demon invasion this time is huge. It starts with Ylercester province; however, their plan to completely dominate the Purple stone world with this invasion."
Ajax explained the important points about the demon invasion as he knew Elder Boron would not listen to everything he said when he was angry.
"What? Planning to conquer the entire Purple stone world in a single invasion? Impossible."
Elder Boron calmed down a little; however, when he thought about it, he felt it was impossible and he flared again.
From ancient times, there were countless demon invasions and invasions from other races; however, the main goal of these invasions was to kill as many powerful cultivators in the Purple stone world as possible.
Among these countless demon invasions, some of them succeeded in their invasions; however, it was not enough to completely dominate the Purple stone world.
So, Elder Boron felt it was impossible to conquer the entire Purple stone world in a single sweep unless multiple greater worlds wanted to conquer it.
"Yes. The five demon emperors are sending three of their personal apostles each. So, there will be a total of 15 demon emperors."
Ajax nodded his head and continued, "Currently, I guess your cultivation is around the low-level emperor realm as well because of your injuries; however, I think you can handle at least five of them."
He didn't waste any time as he went a little deeper in explaining about the demon invasion, making Elder Boron raise his brows.
"How do you know all these things?"
Elder Boron was shocked for a moment as he continued, "Is it because of the artifact that your father gave? No, it is not possible."
For a moment, Elder Boron thought that the system aka artifact that Ajax received from his father, informed him about all these things; however, when he thought a little deeper about these things, he shook his head and rejected them without thinking much.
