At this moment.
Everyone present turned their gaze to Lionel Yeager, their eyes filled with awe and reverence.
Recently, Lionel Yeager had been an unstoppable force on Payton Immortal Island, accomplishing several major feats.
Many held grudges against Lionel Yeager, but quite a few admired him as well.
"Haha, Brother Yeager, there was some misunderstanding earlier. I sincerely apologize!"
"I, Nash Marquis, certainly did not misjudge you. You remain the bold, unmatched hero of unyielding spirit!"
Vincent Kendrick and Nash Marquis descended from the air alongside several Elders and approached Lionel Yeager.
"Vallerie, aren’t you going to offer your gratitude to Brother Yeager?"
"Marian, hurry up and thank him!"
Vincent Kendrick and Nash Marquis called out to their respective little sisters.
"Many thanks, Mr. Yeager!"
Vallerie Jenkins and Rita Martell walked forward, their faces filled with admiration as they bowed respectfully to Lionel Yeager.
"Mr. Yeager, we were quite disrespectful earlier; we hope for your forgiveness!"
"Mr. Yeager, thank you for avenging us!"
The Sect Leaders and Elders of the four major sects also descended, their faces brimming with smiles.
Lionel Yeager waved his hand and said, "There’s no need to thank me. I killed that man merely to prevent him from continuing to impersonate me and commit evil deeds."
Ashling Pascal, Sect Leader of the Hidden Immortal Sect, cupped his hands as he smiled and said, "Mr. Yeager, though you say so, you did indeed avenge us, and it is only proper that we thank you!
A token of my appreciation. Please, accept it!"
As he spoke, he took out a storage bag from his sleeve and handed it to Lionel Yeager.
Seeing Ashling Pascal offer a gift.
Victor Glover, Sect Leader of Green Cloud Door; Paul Lee, Sect Leader of Divine Fire Sect; and Eddy Maxwell, Master of the Grand Palace also hurriedly presented their gifts.
Vincent Kendrick and Nash Marquis likewise quickly took out several storage bags and handed them over.
They had long wanted to forge a connection with Lionel Yeager, and with the opportunity now before them, they naturally seized it.
"As expected of Mr. Yeager! Even the heirs of two great families and the Sect Leaders of four major sects compete to give him gifts!"
"Mr. Yeager’s reputation is well-known; countless people desire to befriend him. It’s entirely understandable!"
The people present were envious.
"This..."
Lionel Yeager was momentarily stunned. He hadn’t expected Vincent Kendrick and the others to suddenly present him with gifts.
"Brother Yeager, since it’s everyone’s heartfelt gesture, you should accept it."
Bardon Bard grinned, taking all the storage bags offered by Vincent Kendrick and the others.
Allister Arthur twitched his mouth and remarked, "This guy’s face is as thick as a city wall!"
Big White shook his head and said, "This is completely shameless!"
Vincent Kendrick suggested, "Brother Yeager, why don’t we find a place to have a proper drink together?"
"Alright."
Lionel Yeager nodded in agreement.
Then, Lionel Yeager and his group left the scene and went to a winery, where they reserved an entire floor.
During the drinking session.
Ashling Pascal, Victor Glover, Paul Lee, and Eddy Maxwell introduced themselves.
It turned out they were leaders of top and second-tier sects from several nearby islands.
Lionel Yeager looked at Vincent Kendrick and the others and said, "Not long ago during the battle at Purple Sky Sect, I made quite a few enemies among sects and families. Are you still willing to associate with me?"
Vincent Kendrick waved his hand and said, "Brother Yeager, the feud between you and Purple Sky Sect, Heaven-Spread Sect, and Immortal Sword Sect is none of the Thunder Roc Family’s concern!
I, Vincent Kendrick, greatly admire your strength and character and wish to be your friend!"
"Exactly!"
Nash Marquis nodded and said, "You stood against so many sects and families for Miss Stone’s sake. Your loyalty and righteousness are truly admirable!
I, Nash Marquis, also wish to be your friend!"
"We feel the same!"
Ashling Pascal and the others repeatedly nodded, their admiration and respect for Lionel Yeager evident.
"Seems not everyone on Payton Immortal Island resents me, Lionel Yeager!"
Lionel Yeager smiled and raised his wine glass, saying, "Since you’re willing to see me as a friend, I, Lionel Yeager, likewise regard you all as friends!
Lionel Yeager did not conceal the truth and recounted the events to Vincent Kendrick and the others.
