The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 1686

Frank's pure vigor then manifested into a gigantic hand, seizing Horey's neck in an instant!

"Donn… I mean, Mr. Lawrence! Please stop!"

Yosil quickly shouted when he saw that Frank was ready to kill, wiping the cold sweat off his brow. "If you really kill her, and Cloudnine Sect comes for blood… Kornac's Keep will fall!"

"Yes, Mr. Lawrence! Please calm down!"

The other elders quickly tried to dissuade Frank too, but he asked in return, "And, what? What do you think should be done about this? If you're dead set on giving up, give me the Stellar Windroot and I'll be gone."

"Oh, uh…"

Frank's question left the elders stumped, and they all turned toward Yosil.

After a moment of silence, he eventually sighed exasperatedly, walking up to Frank and asking quietly, "Do you perhaps remember this old mug, Mr. Lawrence?"

"You?"

Frank frowned at Yosil but shook his head.

"Well, that's fair." Yosil chuckled self-deprecatingly. "I'm really nothing and certainly wouldn't catch the eye of a prodigy like you… See, I was there at Mystic Sky Sect over twenty years ago and personally witnessed the moment of your initiation."

"What?"

Frank was left endlessly shocked by Yosil's words. "Are you from Mystic Sky Sect? Why don't I remember you? And how did you make it out three years ago?"

Yosil smiled awkwardly at Frank's quick-fire questions, still keeping his voice down. "I-I have been found wanting. His Eminence had just happened to expel me on the day of your initiation… However, he seemed to have already foreseen what would happen three years ago and entrusted a great treasure to my care before I left."

"I see…"

While various emotions churned in Frank's heart, his earlier apathy toward Yosil was gone as he now saw the man in a more positive light.

Despite being over two hundred years old, the man never tried to use the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom for his own purposes, keeping a promise from twenty years ago even now.

It was a gesture of loyalty that left Frank's heart aflutter.

At the same time, Yosil continued, "Mr. Lawrence, since you've come just as His Eminence predicted, I have no qualms of giving you the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom. However, my apprentices and Kornac's Keep—"

"Don't worry!"

Frank suddenly looked up with determination, even clapping Yosil on the shoulder. "It's strange, but you won't have a problem with me addressing you as my fellow apprentice, would you?"
