"Dad, what should I do? Sofia is with a man now. I really like her, and I want to be with her," Daniel exclaimed sadly.
He had been standing by the side silently. When the thought of Sofia marrying another man sprung into his mind, he broke down and cried.
Thomas glared at his son and said, "Keep yourself together! Don't worry. She is going to be your wife!"
After that, he instructed, "Great Elder, please assemble all the members. We're going to the Stormy Moon Sect!"
The Great Elder frowned and asked, "Are we really attacking Stormy Moon Sect? We have a deal to wait one week and there are five more days. It's not appropriate if we go over there now. The time is not up and they never said they won't hand over Sofia."
Thomas replied, "No, we can't wait anymore. Time is of the essence. The longer we wait, the stronger they will become and our losses will become bigger. Remember, Severin is a third-grade medium-rank alchemist. Do you think Birk would hand over Sofia to us? Without a doubt, he's going to give it a try. If we wait any longer, Birk could have a breakthrough and become level two saint. Then we would no longer have the advantage anymore."
At this point, the Great Elder was convinced. He nodded and said, "Yes, you're right. I'll assemble the members now."
After some consideration, the Second Elder said, "Mister Daniel, would you consider keeping Severin's alive when we win? After all, he's a third-grade medium-rank alchemist. He's a promising and talented young man."
Without explaining further, Daniel understood what the Second Elder was trying to say. "Are you saying we keep him alive and make him produce alchemical pills for us?"
Meanwhile, the two grand-elders of the Stormy Moon Sect went to look for Severin. Zaki was the Great grand-elder, and the Second grand-elder's name was Zane.
"Grand-elders, I see that you two have a breakthrough," Severin said immediately the moment he saw the happy faces on the grand-elders.
The grand-elders exchanged looks with each other and chuckled. "Haha. Yes, we did. We're now level two saints. The same goes for your dad too. Now, there are three level two saints in the sect. There's nothing we need to be afraid of if the Unbeaten Wind Group comes and attacks us since you are here too."
Zaki sat down and said, "Although we are older than you, your alchemy skill has surpassed us. If you are free, we hope you can give us a pointer or two and we will forever be grateful for that."
