Chapter 601 Two Choices.
Emrys inquired once more.
Bernard’s body trembled. Shaking his head in agony, he said, “No…no, it was Gilbert who offended you, Mr. Lund. H–He deserves to die!”
Indeed, provoking a cultivator warranted death.
Furthermore, Gilbert had offended Emrys on multiple occasions, so his demise was unquestionably justified.
In that moment, Bernard had no thought of seeking revenge. His only fear was that Emrys would direct his anger towards him. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Truly, the world was that realistic.
The most powerful individual held the power of speech. The might of a cultivator was sufficient to bring about the downfall of the Martial Arts Alliance.
Therefore, Bernard did not dare to provoke Emrys.
“Since you have no objections, leave!” Emrys said indifferently.
“Yes. Thank
you
for sparing my life, Mr. Lund!”
Bernard departed, accompanied by a group of law–executors. Although the loss of his son caused him immense sorrow, he could not afford to provoke Emrys, who was a cultivator. Bernard was profoundly grateful that Emrys spared his life.
Halvard remained behind.
It was Emrys who requested him to stay.
“Ms. Langford, you now have two choices. The first is to accept me as your master and become a cultivator. The second is to return to Jipsdale Martial Arts Academy and practice martial arts.”
After that incident, Halvard would not dare to target Blanche any longer. In fact, he would even try to gain favor with her.
Therefore, even if Blanche returned to Jipsdale Martial Arts Academy, she no longer had to worry about being treated unfairly.
Blanche’s expression was blank. She looked at Emrys incredulously. “Mr. Lund, are you saying that I have the option to choose you as my mentor and become a cultivator?”
“Yes,” Emrys nodded with a smile,
The path of cultivation was all about seizing a fortunate opportunity. At most, Emrys could only serve as a guide, leading Blanche to the threshold of cultivation. How she would progress from there depended entirely on her own efforts.
After all, Emrys had already introduced his sisters into the ranks of cultivators, so including Blanche as well was not a problem at all.
Blanche fell into a moment of contemplation while biting her red lip. Suddenly, she broke into a smile and said, “I choose to return to Jipsdale Martial Arts Academy.”
It was Blanche’s decision to return to Jipsdale Martial Arts Academy.
She certainly knew that cultivators were far more powerful than martial artists. The two were simply not on the same level.
However, Blanche did not harbor such lofty ambitions.
In the past, all she wanted was to live peacefully in the Langford residence. Later, when she decided to practice martial arts, it was merely to escape her own destiny, not wanting to be treated as a pawn for a political marriage by her family.
Now that Gilbert was dead, naturally, no one could force her to marry into the Cunningham family. Morcover, out of consideration for Emrys, the Langford family would not dare to pressure her into doing anything against her will.
Blanche was content.
From then on, she was completely satisfied just being able to stay quietly at Jipsdale Martial Arts Academy.
Blanche was not greedy.
As for becoming a cultivator, she believed that would be a status she could admire from afar, much like how she was gazing at Emrys with admiration at that moment.
Emrys looked at Blanche approvingly and said with a smile, “Ms. Langford, I respect any decision you make.” This determined girl is truly impressing me.
Emrys then said to Halvard, “Mr. Wigen, from now on, Ms. Langford will be under your
guidance. You should know what to do.”
“I understand. Please rest assured, Mr. Lund. I will certainly instruct Ms. Langford diligently. The mistakes of the past will not be repeated,” Halvard solemnly promised, his heart overflowing with boundless joy.
Blanche acted as a link between him and Emrys, a cultivator.
Naturally, Halvard was delighted to assist Blanche, hoping that it would also gain him. favor with Emrys in the future.
After all, who wouldn’t want to be on good terms with a cultivator?
Once Halvard had finished giving instructions, Emrys calmly looked at each person, including Samuel.
At that moment, the Langford family had been speechless for quite some time.
They had been in this state since Teagan’s death and the revelation of Emrys‘ identity as a cultivator.
