Watt, Philip, and Jack. All three of them opened their eyes and exchanged glances and smiled wryly. They truly regretted not breaking through earlier and now they have to face this. If they had been in the Grand realm, they would have tried to deal with these people, even with those beasts.
But now, what they wanted to avoid the most has co.
They imdiately relaxed and sat down on the ground.
They didn’t even feel that tense anymore.
Because they sensed so extra presence nearby and there are four of them who are all Grand realm experts who seed to be in the later stages.
The demon trio also looked in a direction from where four middle-aged n are running towards them.
They all have badges of the four major professions on their chests. They are here to save Watt, Philip, and Jack.
When the demon trio looked at the four people coming, they couldn’t help but frown. They looked at them coldly and Tran asked.
"This is a Private matter; I hope you guys don’t get involved." They are on verge of completing the mission and they don’t want any interference.
But artisan tower head of the city said.
"I am sorry. But these three are our esteed guests. We cannot let you harm them."
With that, he released his aura of a late-stage Grand realm user and stared at Tran refusing to back down.
Watt, Philip, and Jack heaved sighs of relief. They were really afraid they wouldn’t make it in ti, but the tower heads seed to be expecting them. Even though they don’t know how they ca to know they are coming, they didn’t care for now.
But after that relief, they felt truly frustrated. If only they have broken-through before they wouldn’t have had to run this far like this.
They were chased for two days and nights and almost got caught.
Particularly, Watt, he looked at the demon trio as if he wanted to swallow them whole. Falck was injured severely.
The demon trio backed down and didn’t attack. They ca to thunder god temple’s territory and they ca to deal with the individuals, if they ss with the four major professional organizations they would be in trouble.
If it was at least weaker people from the organizations, then they wouldn’t have cared, but these people are even stronger than them and they cannot afford to ss with them.
Tran heaved a sigh of frustration and asked the artisan tower-head.
"We can enter the city, right?"
"You are most welco. You can do whatever you want. All you cannot do is disturb the construction works and attack our guests while they are under our care."
With those words, the four tower heads left along with Watt, Philip, and Jack. The three of them had their heads down, they knew they are f.u.c.k.i.e.d up.
This was extrely humiliating and their faces burned in sha.
They could guess how they are saved and there is no way other than Sam who could save them and their guess is indeed right.
When the news about the attackers reached Sam, he didn’t make a move instead, he just inford the marquis city’s artisan tower to save them, and that too on the premise that they reach the vicinities.
Since they wanted to train, he would let them train. Even though, Sam knew that they have great battle potential, in ways of the world they are too green and he was to bla. All this ti, he subconsciously beca too protective and didn’t let them deal with the matters that much and took it upon himself.
Now, he will let them experience all of it.
Being beside Sam, they could experience enough losses except for losing to Sam himself and after so ti, they subconsciously got used to it and moved on. They have implanted the idea that it would be impossible to surpass Sam and there is no need for that as they are his friends.
Even when they went to training, they went with a thought that they shouldn’t fall behind Sam too much.
Another side effect of their attitude is that they don’t look up to their peers anymore other than Sam. They feel like the others aren’t worth that much and they can deal with all of them except Sam.
Even if they don’t voluntarily develop that thought, it would form subconsciously. But they should kill that voluntarily.
That is why Sam didn’t make a move. If he made a move this ti, they will feel that it is okay as Sam was the one who rescued them from this situation. Of course, they will feel indignant, but that doesn’t change their attitude.
They will just take it for granted. It is just like how every child wants to surpass, their father, mother, teacher, or their ntor. They would strive to beco better, but they wouldn’t feel any setback when they were helped by any of them in that process.
That is the reason, Sam didn’t co. Now, they were chased for two days and so external people have to co and save them.
If they are not here, then they would have been captured.
Now, they are all thinking. If not for Sam having these connections, they would have been done for. Even if not for the connections, if just these people just decided to accept so bribe and left them since Sam is not here, then what would happen?
They only have one thought, they wouldn’t be this lucky every ti.
This ti, they are lucky that Sam has connections, lucky that the energy cells lasted until they arrived near the city, and lucky that these people cared enough about Sam’s words.
Luck. The most unreliable factor of all.
They were saved with this most unreliable thing.
After they arrived at the quarters arranged by the tower head, the latter didn’t show much courtesy and said.
"We can only save you for a week. After this week, we have sothing to do and couldn’t stay in the city, we also cannot take you with us as this is a confidential eting. I hope you would make your own arrangents after this week."
After that, the tower head left. The trio is in a solemn mood.
They were fearless all this while. Even faced with the lightning spear sect and the thunderbolt sect, they are not exactly affected. They were with full confidence.
They even felt that they can use them as their whetstones. But now, the situation changed. They understood that the enemies are not exactly fair and the dangers wouldn’t let them have their sweet ti growing.
They wanted to suppress their cultivation for a while, but now they could wait for a breakthrough.
Watt is the first one to make a move, he brought Falck to the pharmaceutical tower and healed him there before coming back to the yard.
He prepared himself for the breakthrough. Even before him, Jack and Philip are already cultivating.
If they can break-through to the Level-1 of the Grand realm and also temper their body using body cultivation, then they can fight with their opponents, even though, the addition of beasts will make it troubleso for them, they can still manage it.
So, for the next week, they cultivated non-stop. Right now, their hearts are burning. Even though they were chased by the whole empire previously they didn’t feel bad. But now, they are being chased by people who are just a few years older than them, they couldn’t control the feeling of frustration and inferiority ca from their lack of strength.
Jack is the first one to have a breakthrough. Since they are already at the limit, all they needed was a little push.
Jack went on to cultivate his body as soon as he broke through, latter Philip and Watt had a breakthrough almost at the sa ti.
After the week, they are ready to leave the city.
They decided to separate after dealing with this bunch.
But this ti, they don’t want to be at a complete disadvantage like before.
They are in their best condition and they confidently walked out of the city wall and entered the nearby woods, as they waited for the demon trio to co.
They didn’t stay idle and made so preparations for the battle.
There is one of the most important lessons they learned from these experiences and that is the battles are never fair. They had to win by hook or crook.
It is well and good if the opponents want to battle fairly, but now that they are even ganging with the help of beasts, then they have to get out of these chivalrous thoughts of playing fair and all.
So, they chose the battle-field. It is a narrow valley.
The beasts have bigger sizes and are not suitable to freely move around in this valley.
They chose this to reduce the threat of the beasts as much as possible, if the battle isn’t fair then they will make it fair.
