Gatlin was shocked to the extreme when he heard Alex.
It turned out that the restriction placed on him was so terrifying. The Flame Dragon Clan really had a vicious plan in their minds when they sealed his cultivation base.
Fortunately, Gatlin always had the habit of brewing spirit wine and drinking them. Even after his cultivation base was sealed, he always kept brewing spirit wine and drinking them with the hope to somehow affect the seal with the external surge of spirit energy and break it somehow.
However, he did not expect this habit of his was saving his life all this while. If not for the spirit energy from the spirit wine, his life would have long ended due to the lack of blood in his body.
The restriction placed on his cultivation was actually connected to his heart, using it as its source of energy. If not for the Spirit Wine, the restriction would have emptied his body out of every drop of blood.
This was too terrifying.
Gatlin took a deep breath and an expression of fear appeared on his face. His entire body trembled and he took a few steps back before sitting on the bed.
Gatlin was able to calm down despite some difficulties. After that, both of them talked a lot for a few more hours.
Finally, Alex got ready to take his leave, but before he left, he gave Gatlin a few treasures and told him that he could return to the Profound Star Sect.
But Gatlin refused and said that the Floating Cloud Academy was now his home since this place has given him a place to stay for so many years. He decided to become the guardian elder of the Floating Cloud Academy and protect it forever.
Alex soon left the courtyard and started wandering around the sect. After that, he went to the place where Leader was cultivating in seclusion and secretly left a lot of treasures there.
He spent a few more hours wandering around before leaving the Floating Cloud Academy.
After that, Alex left the Floating Cloud Academy with quick steps, he headed straight to the Jade City. Apart from going back to visit the White Family, he also had another important thing he wanted to ask after all.
When he was leaving the Jade City, he was riding a Rank 4 demonic beast Black Feathered Eagle with a few other people. However, in just two months, when he returned, he was alone.
But Alex's speed was much faster than the Black Feathered Eagle.
Alex only used less than half an hour to return to Jade City from the Floating Cloud Academy.
When Alex entered Jade City and looked at the familiar streets and the crowded scene, he sighed in his heart.
"It's been more than five years since I left Jade City," Alex muttered and felt nostalgia.
In addition, he could also vaguely feel that the current Jade City was different from the past. However, he couldn't tell what exactly it was.
However, he soon discovered the result through discussions of the surrounding people.
"It turns out that the Jade City is now ruled by the White Family.
Even the City Lord's Mansion belongs to the White Family. The rest of the families were no longer in the Jade City."
Alex murmured and nodded slightly. This should be the goodwill of the Floating Cloud Academy. Although this had exceeded his expectations, he was not surprised.
After that, Alex started walking towards the City Lord's Mansion. Not long after that, he arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.
"Stop right there! This is the City Lord's Mansion, no one is allowed to approach!"
However, just as he approached the entrance of the City Lord Mansion, he was stopped by two guards.
"I am Alex white. Go and inform the City Lord!" Alex said indifferently.
The two guards were stunned at first, but they quickly reacted. Then, their eyes widened, and their hearts shook."
One of them asked carefully: "You are Alex, Young Master Alex?"
"I think no one in the Jade City dares to impersonate me, right?" Alex asked calmly.
The two guards trembled. They quickly bowed and greeted. "Young Master Alex, please. I will inform the patriarch now!"
They didn't dare show any neglect to Alex.
"Alright."
Alex nodded his head and walked into the door.
No one dared to stop him this time.
One of the guards rushed into the room and shouted:
"Young Master Alex is back!
Young Master Alex is back!
Not long after that, the Head of the White Family, William White, Grand Elder Rogan White, Third Elder, and almost all the other higher-ups of the White Family came out to welcome Alex.
"Alex, you're back." William White said with a smile on his face.
"Young Master Alex, welcome back!"
All the higher-ups of the White Family greeted Alex with smiles on their faces. Although they were all family, there was a respectful expression on their faces. All the higher-ups of the White Family had also heard the rumors about Alex. It was also because of Alex that White Family had such a high status.
When they saw Alex once again, Alex had withdrawn all of his power. However, they could also feel an incomparably terrifying pressure coming from Alex's body. They even felt that the spirit energy within their bodies had stopped moving, and their vitality had slowed down.
All of them were extremely shocked. Their attitudes couldn't help but become respectful.
"Yes, I'm back," Alex replied one by one with a smile on his face. He sighed in his heart. He knew that as his cultivation base and status increased, he would never be able to return to the past.
After that, Alex said. "Family Head, can you let me talk to father-in-law alone?"
"Sure, of course." William quickly replied while nodding his head. After that, he signaled Aren, who was beside him.
Aren walked out and said with a smile: "Alex, let's go and have a chat."
"Okay."
After that, Alex followed Aren and left under the gazes of the higher-ups of the White Family. They arrived at a pavilion and sat opposite each other.
"Alex, I didn't expect you to become the number one genius of Jade City and obtain the opportunity to go beyond the Wasteland.
"I have to admit, I underestimated you."
Aren looked at the elegant and extraordinary Alex and revealed a smile. He was more and more satisfied with Alex.
"I thank you for your praise," Alex replied with a smile.
After they chatted for a while, Aren asked: "How long can you stay this time?"
"I won't stay for long. I'm leaving soon. The reason why I'm back this time is to visit the White Family and you. I also brought some resources along the way." Alex took out a Storage Ring and placed it on the table.
"This Storage Ring contains hundreds of martial arts manuals, thousands of spirit fruits, herbs, weapons, and medicinal pills. There are also millions of different grades of Spirit Stone."
"Father-in-law, you can take all of these. They should be enough for you to break through to the Spirit Origin Stage."
Compared to the head of the White Family, the Grand Elder, and the other higher-ups, he trusted his father-in-law more.
"What?" When Aren heard this, his expression changed, and he almost lost his balance. He was stunned to the extreme. Alex has simply brought him too many treasures. There were so many treasures that he had never seen in his entire life before.
He couldn't calm down for a long time and couldn't believe it.
Alex, on the other hand, looked calm. He still had countless treasures in his hand but did not take them out.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was worried that the White Family wouldn't be able to take it, he would have taken them all out at once.
Aren only managed to regain his senses after a long while. His face was filled with excitement. He looked at Alex and sighed with emotion.
"Alex, I was right about you. You have grown to such a stage in just a few years."
"Father-in-law, I have something important to ask you about this time."
At this moment, Alex suddenly changed the topic and asked with a solemn expression.
"You want to ask about Asna, right?"
Aren's expression also became serious and he sighed.
"Yes." Alex nodded and said in a deep voice: "Father-in-law, I have already far surpassed the Void Martial Stage. And now, I'm about to leave the Three Cultivation Land and go to the True Essence Sky World. Before I go there, I wanted to ask about Asna. After all, after I leave this time, I might not be back for a short period of time. So, I hope you can tell me about Asna."
"Alright!" Aren was surprised to know that Alex has already surpassed the Void Martial Stage. he was even more shocked when he heard Alex was about to go to the True Essence Sky World.
