Chapter 2233
Melany was a little shocked.
‘Master? James became Sect Elder Yoan’s disciple?’
It took a while before she regained her composure and asked, “J-James, where are you going?”
“I’m going to the Southwood with my master,” said James.
“Oh. Go on, then.” Melany waved her hand.
“Mhm.” James did not say much. He bid her farewell and walked away. Then, he turned around and looked at Yoan. “Sir, let’s
go.”
Yoan waved his hand casually. A golden light manifested from his palm, and a gourd appeared. The gourd grew bigger and
bigger, soon reaching a length of a dozen meters.
“What’s this?” James looked astonished.
Yoan explained with a smile, “This is a magical flying tool. Let’s go.”
While he was speaking, he took the initiative to board the enormous gourd. James followed suit and leap onto it.
After getting on the gourd, Yoan exerted his True Energy, and the gourd began to fly. It quickly appeared in mid-air and then shot
forward.
The magical flying tool had a very high speed. Huge mountains beneath them were moving swiftly in the opposite direction.
Two days later, Yoan appeared in the Southwood with James.
Southwood was a massive, ancient city that had existed for a millennium.
An old man and a young man strode up the worn road outside the city. Soon, they appeared at the city gate and then hurried into
the city.
Led by Yoan, James arrived at the front of a lavish mansion in the city. Two massive stone lions were placed at the main
entrance. There were also numerous guards on patrol.
The main entrance was carved with two words: ‘Landolfs’ Mansion’.
“Who’s there?”
As soon as they moved closer, some guards approached James and Yoan, blocking their path.
Yoan stroked his white beard gently and said with a smile, “Yoan Xenocrates from the Welkin Academy. I have some matters to
discuss with the head of the Landolf family. Please let them know.”
When they heard “Welkin Academy,” the guards who stood in their way trembled. However, since they lived in Southwood, they
were unaware of Yoan’s position within the Welkin Academy.
A guard immediately said, “Please wait for a moment.’
After saying that, he quickly left to announce their arrival.
After about five minutes, many people walked out of the main entrance.
There were over thirty people, young and old. A middle-aged man was in the lead. He appeared to be in his forties. He was a
little fat, but he had a sturdy physique. His face was
chiseled.
“S-Sect Elder Yoan, welcome. Your presence brings light to my humble dwelling.” The slightly overweight middle-aged man with
a solid build approached with a respectful expression.
Yoan said with a smile, “Mr. Landolf. How have you been?”
“Sect Elder Yoan, please come in.”
The head of the Landolf family personally welcomed Yoan into the mansion.
Although the Landolf family was a powerful family, they were facing a Sect Elder of the Welkin Academy. The Landolf family did
not dare slight him.
Many people had gathered in the main hall of the Landolfs’ Mansion. Yoan and James were treated as esteemed guests.
At the head of the table, Dacre Landolf, the head of the Landolf family asked with a smile, Sect Elder Yoan, our last meeting was
years ago. You didn’t come all the way to Southwood and the Landolfs’ Mansion just to see me, did you?”
