Fade found a few words written on the paper, and from the looks of it, it seemed like it was a letter left behind by Aldred.
He held onto the paper and read it carefully.
"Little fella, as you're reading this letter, you must be here because of what will happen in the Xuan Valley."
"If that's the case, it means that you have started to aim for the Lord Level."
"You're not as fast as I thought you would be! You're much worse than I was."
"However, although you're not talented, and I'm your master, I won't just sit by and do nothing about it."
"Therefore, I've left you a small present. It will aid your cultivation so make sure to keep it safe."
"Go ahead and be confident in yourself!
"Don't miss me!"
"This old fogey is still so pretentious. Don't worry! Why would anyone miss you?" Fade smiled as he habitually bickered with Aldred in his heart.
"This old fogey really is prophetic. He even figured out that I would come here because of the Xuan Valley."
After tidying up the note and putting it away, he looked at the gift that Aldred had mentioned.
As there was no other thing around, the gift that must be the thing that was wrapped in the paper just now.
It was something that Fade subconsciously put aside and overlooked.
At this moment, he picked it up and stared at it. Unexpectedly, there was a mist on it.
"This is the gift!"
"Old fogey, are you kidding me?"
"I think the old fogey ate the real gift and simply left something that he didn't want for me instead."
Looking at the so-called gift in his hand, Fade was suspicious about it.
The thing wrapped in the paper seemed to be a dried-up, oval-shaped seed. There was a layer of dense wrinkles on it, which looked like a peach seed.
Fade played with the seed in his hands, then he looked at it. He even tried to use his positive energy to examine it, but he still couldn't find anything special about it.
"That old fogey couldn't have made a mistake, could he? "
"I guess, even if it's not some kind of top-notch herb or pellet, it could at least give me some sort of power or be a weapon. However, it's just a seed, and moreover, I'm not even sure if there's a function to it."
Even though he couldn't find a good use for it, Aldred had personally left it behind for him, and he even instructed Fade to take good care of it.
Therefore, Fade stored the seed safely away.
After that, he didn't give up and searched the entire cabin again, but unfortunately, nothing else was found.
After a long sigh, he sat down cross-legged and began to meditate.
It was undeniable that the cabin was full of spiritual energy. Moreover, Aldred also decorated the place with different types of supplementary spells, hence, Fade's cultivation was 3 times more efficient than when he was in the outside world.
Just as he was cultivating in the cabin.
Halston, Kaegan, Pluto, as well as Kelly, who were in the outside world, were worried about Fade.
As it was getting closer to the opening of the entrance to the Xuan Valley, a few of them would occasionally head to the back of the mountain to check if Fade was out.
However, every single time, the cabin would still be shrouded in mist, with no changes at all.
That evening, Halston and the rest came by the cabin again, but there were no changes at all.
"Obviously, it's impossible. He definitely managed to find an opening to enter, which was extremely lucky for him."
"He wanted to monopolize this opportunity for himself. Hence, when he saw that Algot wanted to enter too, he threw him out. All this makes me doubt his motive!"
With those words, something that happened out of coincidence had now turned into a deliberate act.
Suddenly, Gotzel's impression of Fade changed significantly for the worse.
Halston and Kaegan wanted to explain, but in Gotzel's eyes, the two of them were inferior to Wagner. Hence, that was why he didn't provide them with the chance to explain.
At the thought of this, the anxiety in Halston's heart grew even more intense.
"On Algol's side, his Master personally healed him. His injuries have improved a lot so he can probably still enter Xuan Valley."
"It's just that the impression that the clans have of Fade has been affected. I'm worried..."
"Master Tuan does not have a good impression of Brother Chen. How are we supposed to fix this?"
Pluto frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "I'll talk to my uncle. Maybe he can explain things to Master Tuan."
Everyone knew that Pluto's uncle was the leader of Wushuang Tower, Kinsley Zou. Moreover, all along, Kinsley had always adored Fade.
Therefore, it might be a good choice to let him explain things clearly.
However, in the end, Halston still shook his head and said, "Things haven't evolved to that extent yet. Master Tuan didn't make a clear statement either, but was only affected by Wagner."
"If at that time, there really was a misunderstanding, then we should probably contact Master Zhou. The results may be better too."
"Aright, I'll listen to you, Halston." Pluto nodded.
Then, they sighed and went down the mountain, still worried.
