As Sophie walked away from the old lady with an annoyed look, Kent followed her with a playful smile. Just then, the old lady in the administrative building called Sophia back with a hand gesture.
Stomping her feet annoyingly, Sophia reached the old lady. The old lady gestured for Sophia to come close. Sophia leaned on the table and put her ear close to the old lady.
“That young man is looking super handsome. You better protect him well from the other ladies. You know about our healing peak, right?” The old lady said in a whispering tone.
After hearing what the old lady said, Sophia exchanged an angry look and stomped her foot with an annoyed cry. She hurriedly left without waiting for another second. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
“This old bucket is really annoying.” Sophia muttered with clenched fists as she mounted her mountain lion.
Just as Kent and Sophia crossed the administrative building, a Raka beast came running towards them. Zi Chen, who is riding the pet, came to an abrupt stop before Sophia.
Instead of asking about his sister’s condition, ZI Chen’s gaze landed on Kent, who stood beside Sophia on his Fire Kirin. Kent stared at him without any hint of concern.
“What is he doing here?” Zi Chen questioned with a serious look.
“He is the new personal disciple of my master. So, he is going to stay here from now on.” Sophia replied nonchalantly.
“Bullshit… How can this weak fellow become a personal disciple of Peak Master?” Zi Chen retorted while looking down on Kent.
“What? You won’t believe me. Kent, show your disciple token to my unreasonable brother.” Sophia said with a playful smirk.
Without saying anything, Kent tossed the emerald-green token into the air and picked it up with playful ease. After seeing the jade stone token in Kent’s hands, Zi Chen’s irritation reached its peak.
“Hmmhh… It appears that healing sun peak standards have dropped to their lowest point. Anyway, stay away from this weak fellow. I don’t want my sister to talk with this type of person.” Zi Chen spoke seriously while glaring at Kent.
“Brother, stop speaking nonsense. If not for him, I would be dead by now in the hands of the poison sect. Instead of thanking him, you were speaking like an ungrateful man. I feel very ashamed to say that, you are my brother.” Sophia countered angrily as she stared at her brother, Zi Chen.
But Zi Chen ignored Sophia’s words completely. “Sophie, you are not understanding the whole truth. Do you really think he has the capability to protect you? It must be his play to gain your favour. Promise me that you will stay away from him.” Zi Chen stretched his hand with a serious look.
Sophia felt annoyed with her brother’s behavior. She felt bed as this is happening before Kent. “Brother, I’m done with you. From now on, don’t come here to see me. Peak Master asked me to assist Kent, so I’m going to do that even if you are against it. Kent, follow me.” Sophia declared with a determined look and moved away from Zi Chen on her mountain lion.
Kent followed her, ignoring the threatening gesture from Zi Chen.
“At least contact father first. He is worried about you.” Zi Chen roared from a distance while staring at the leaving back of Kent and Sophia. Sophia continued to move deep into the healing sun peak without looking back at her brother.

Outside the Eternal Sun Sect, in the skies, tensions ran high as the patriarch and Mohini engaged in a heated exchange. Since the incident with Kent, Mohini has been relentless in her attempts to infiltrate the sect. But the old patriarch blocked her from entering inside the sect grounds.
After a lengthy standoff, Mohini finally calmed down as Kent got the Elixir cure, though not without a final warning. With a menacing glare, she withdrew, leaving the patriarch to breathe a sigh of relief.
In response to the threat posed by the poison sect, the patriarch wasted no time in issuing a command order to the peak masters. They were tasked with placing barrier talismans in the Wildwood Forest to prevent any further incursions. But this is going to consume a lot of sect wealth.

After leaving Zi Chen, Sophia brought Kent to the disciple’s residence. They came to stop before a large mansion like rock building.
“Sorry, Kent. My brother shouldn’t have talked like that.” Sophia said while getting down from her pet.
Kent just waved his hand in response. “Stop saying sorry for your brother’s mistake. I will be happier if you show my residence.” Kent replied, following Sophia.
Sophia’s cheeks went wide, and her eyes sparkled with excitement as she led Kent through the grand courtyard of the rocky palace. The towering walls loomed overhead, adorned with intricate carvings that spoke to the history of the Eternal Sun sect.
“Welcome to your new home, Kent. As a core disciple of the peak master, you’ll be staying here from now on.” Sophia said with a warm smile, her voice echoing softly in the expansive space.
Kent’s eyes widened in awe as he took in the grandeur of his surroundings. While the other disciples got small rooms inside one residence, Kent got the massive palace already.
“It’s… it’s incredible,” Kent breathed, his voice filled with wonder.
Sophia chuckled softly, her eyes dancing with amusement. “I’m glad you like it. This is almost similar to my residence. Come, let me show you around.”
Leading Kent through the grand entrance, Sophia guided him into the resting room, where luxurious furnishings and soft cushions awaited.
“And over here is the combat room, it has level 5 inscriptions. You don’t need to worry about using all your strength.” Sophia said while demonstrating how to activate the inscriptions.
Kent nodded in understanding, his gaze sweeping over the well-equipped training area with admiration. “It’s impressive,” he remarked while thinking about the level 2 combat rooms of the Semen family. Unknowingly, the images of black belle miss surfaced in his vision.
But it was the pill furnace room that truly captured Kent’s attention. With different-sized pots of various materials lined along the wall, it appeared like a professional healer’s house.
“This is where you can practice the refining of pills. Don’t worry about resources, every day a servant comes in the morning to deliver the herbs you need.” Sophia explained, her voice tinged with reverence.
But it was the sight of the backyard that truly took Kent’s breath away. At the center of the lush garden, a natural pond shimmered in the sunlight, its surface covered with a thick layer of syrup-like liquid.
“What… what is this?!” Kent asked, his eyes wide with curiosity.
Sophia smiled knowingly, her gaze lingering on the majestic tree that towered above the pond. “This is the green wood blessing tree, its roots were connected to aura veins in the underground. Every night, this tree leaves fall into water and turn into stick sirup-like liquid. Absorbing this liquid will boost your cultivation.
This is the main perk of being the personal disciple of Peak Master.” Sophia explained while observing Kent’s face.
Kent’s heart raced with excitement as he stared at the pond water by leaning close to it. “It’s… it’s incredible,” he whispered, his voice filled with reverence. Also, a determination formed in his mind to cultivate faster. But what he don’t know is, decade long resources of rising sun peak were waiting for him.
