“You don’t have to tease me like that, classmate,” he said with a smile.
Nancy poked her tongue out at him. She tumed and left, but tears were secretly rolling down her cheeks.
Wilbur sighed and drove toward Sealake Island.

It was late at night at Owens Manor.
Jeremy was done with cultivation training. He had a shower and was ready to head back to his room to sleep.
He had a habit of drinking two ounces of aged wine before going to sleep. It was the only way he could sleep soundly.
He sat on the living room sofa. The servants already placed the warm aged wine on the coffee table.
He leaned on the sofa and lifted the wine to have a sip, then let out a deep breath of satisfaction.
He had consolidated the influences of the family ever since he was defeated by Wilbur. He retreated from the public eye and focused on his cultivation. He no longer concerned himself with matters of the mortal world.
However, he often fantasized about learning from Wilbur, He felt that even if Wilbur would not accept him as a student, some sharings from Wilbur would also benefit him greatly.
He had been a peak Aura level cultivator for so long without any progress. He could not advance in cultivation if things continued that way. He would not have many years left to live.
However, he was acutely aware of the gap between himself and Wilbur. Such thoughts plagued his mind, but he would not dare to voice them out. He could only sigh in disappointment after his thoughts.
Suddenly, a puddle of blood appeared on the ground in front of him.
Jeremy was stunned. When did the blood puddle appear? How did he miss it?
He wanted to call his servants to scold them, but the blood puddle increased rapidly in size. It grew to around four square meters in the blink of an eye.
Jeremy was shocked. He hurriedly stood up and activated his Aura in defense.
However, a wave of blood washed over him, and he exclaimed in terror.
His servants heard the commotion, so they hurriedly rushed in to check
They saw Jeremy sipping on aged wine like nothing happened.
“Get out. Who gave you permission to come in?” scolded Jeremy angrily.
The servants looked confused, but they obediently left the room.
The next afternoon.
Wilbur had eaten his lunch. He went back to his room to continue his meditation.
He was about to begin, but Charles Quinta requested to see him outside,
Wilbur told him to come in. Charles had an invitation in his hand. He respectfully passed it to him and said, “Sir, someone named Sean Owens sent you this invitation. He didn’t make an appointment, so I didn’t allow him to enter.”
Wilbur nodded and checked the invitation. He thought for a moment and said, “Tell Sean Owens I’ll be there,”
“Yes.” Charles went away to carry out his orders.
Wilbur picked up the invitation again for another look after Charles left.

It was an invitation from the three major clans. Jeremy Dwns of the Owens clan, Matt Lilith of the Lilith clan, and Gareth Torrent of the Torrent clan invited him to Owens Manor for an evening event.
The invitation was to lecture the younger generation of the three clans. They wanted to show how great Wilbur Ferin was and inspire the younger members of the clans.
Wilber would usually ignore an event like that. However, Jeremy Owens was in his considerations. Jeremy gave him a huge asset, after all. He felt a bit embarrassed to not attend.
Therefore, he decided to go to the manor. He also had something to discuss with the three major clans.
He continued his meditation until eight o’clock before he drove toward Owens Manor.
He realized something was amiss after he arrived at the manor.
The surroundings of the manor were filled with parked cars, probably numbering over a hundred. There might be four or five hundred people there. Did the three major clans really assemble such a massive crowd just to give them a lecture?
