Fane’s expression fell when he heard that. If he only had three years, he had no time to waste. He had to get his hands on the ancient scroll, and fast.
Fane smiled bitterly. “Alright, I understand,” he replied.
Two days later, Nash’s body had completely recovered.
Nash kept it a secret from everyone else, all except his two trusted people—Titus and the First Elder, Kenneth.
Titus and Kenneth were overjoyed to hear Nash’s news.
Despite their joy, however, they felt restless to keep such a secret. They suffered in silence for it.
Another day passed and the Third Elder finally walked out from his room. He had a smile on his face and he quickly went to Lily’s living quarters.
“Why did you come out so quickly?” rushed Lily upon seeing Wade. “I have a really bad feeling. Before you went into retreat, Fane went out with Lana and Ethan.”
Lily felt warmth in her heart when she saw how Wade cared for her son, thus she replied, “Yes, nothing’s changed—there’s no news. Sigh… Could he be really dead?”
Wade smiled coldly. Even if Lance was not dead, he would not allow him to come back alive. Lily was delusional to think Lance could still come back alive.
He stepped forward and hugged Lily by her waist before he smilingly assured, “I’ve already broken through, and I’m in the peak stage of the real god-level right now. I’m not afraid of even the First Elder right now.”
