320 No Work, No Meat! (1/2)

Leon sighed after the ordeal was finally over. With the death of the sect master, the Bloodfiend Sect was finished in its truest sense.

However.

Leon frowned when he recalled Balthazar's last words. It was full of hidden implications and did not seem to have been said out of spite.

The origins of the Bloodfiend Sect's techniques were quite dubious. Could they have been colluding with demons? In that case, Balthazar would have been referring to the demons. The demons were planning to destroy the planet?

That should not be the case. Demons slaughter the weak and enslave the strong, but they still needed a habitable planet to survive.

Wiping out the planet would mean wiping out themselves, not to mention they need to have an incredibly strong demon at the level of the Divine King realm, a Demon King, to pull it off.

If there was a Demon King on Planet Gaia that intended to destroy the world, the world would have been fucked long ago.

Leon furrowed his brows and began to ponder deeper, but no matter how much he pondered, everything was mere speculations.

”It seems I need to start looking on the other side if I want to find my answers.” Leon softly murmured before he had a look of determination. ”Wait for me, mom! I will come save you soon!”

In the distance, Don's laughter could be heard echoing over as the said person soon dragged his body over and patted Leon's shoulders with both hands. ”Hahaha! Well done, Leon boy! I—Ahem, I knew you could do it!”

Leon gave Grandmaster Don a sidelong glance and said, ”Did you, Grandpa Don? Did you really? You didn't seem all that confident in me when you retreated so far away, though?” Leon doubted.

”I—Er… Of course, I was confident. I was trying not to get in your way, don't you know that? Did you forget how that old thing almost hacked me to death?” Don retorted shamelessly.

Leon shook his head with a soft laugh.

”How are you feeling, Grandpa Don?”

”Great, actually!” Don's eyes lit up before he praised, ”The recovery medicine was super effective! Do you have any left? How about gifting Grandpa Don some more?”

Leon did not refuse Don's request and directly passed the grandmaster two pill bottles of Tier-3 All-Purpose Healing Pills.

Don gladly received the pill bottles before opening one of the caps and took a whiff on the high-quality medicinal scent.

”Leon boy, you actually have so many pills of this quality?” Don was pleasantly surprised after finding 10 pills in each bottle, before asking, ”Where did get all the high-quality spirit herbs to refine these?”

”If Grandpa Don needs spirit herbs, perhaps Grandpa Don should pay a visit to the World Tree some time and ask some wood-users to help Grandpa Don cultivate them. The spirit energy there is vibrant.” Leon answered in a roundabout way.

”You were? Where are you planning to go, Grandpa Don?” Leon asked with surprise.

After a quick talk, Leon found out where Don was heading and why he was heading there.

The Transcendent realm was not the same as the Awakener and Ranked Awakener realms. If one wants to progress further in the Transcendent realm, one needed a suitable environment to comprehend the laws.

For this purpose, Don intended to head to the Ishaan Kingdom, where it was said to be the hottest place in the Human Domain.

”Alright, Grandpa Don's going to find your father for a talk and ease his worries.”

”But before that, Grandpa Don might want to go find some clothes,” Leon said with a soft laugh.

The grandmaster alchemist's pajamas were burnt away in the battle. All he had left to cover himself was a layer of flames.

Don was taken aback after a quick glance at himself before he nodded without the slightest shame, ”En, that's true.”

After Don left, Leon swept at look at the destruction around him before shaking his head.

”It seems the Upper District will also need to undergo some reconstruction. Fortunately, it's only the Upper East District that has been mainly affected by the battle.”

Soon after, Leon's eyes fell back on Balthazar's corpse with black goo oozing out of his pores and orifices.

”I should clean up my mess first… father will take care of the rest.” Leon mused.

He bent down and carefully searched through Balthazar's half-destroyed clothes with divine sense. Finding nothing of importance, he shifted his focus to the head.

”No Transcendent Crystal?”

Leon was surprised to find nothing, nothing at all.

Elemental seeds quickly disperse all its energy after Awakeners die, but Transcendent Crystals hold the crystallization of their law's comprehension and would not dissipate for a long time.
