Hadley’s gaze also appeared thoughtful.
“In the late summer of last year, Casper mentioned that virtual-novel.net would leave for some time, and virtual-novel.net didn’t come back until today. It was enough to go to the surrounding borders and countries for a round trip by foot in half a year, right? However, what did virtual-novel.net do there? The journey is far and tiring… At this time…”
After pondering for a moment, Hadley smiled. “Why should I rack my brain on this matter? It’s fine as long as virtual-novel.net doesn’t have a problem.”
“Hadley, you’re still as free and easy-going as always.” Then, Leonard shook his head, adding, “If that’s really the shapeshifting demon’s offspring, I’m worried that it’ll knock on our door, thinking that we’re going to use its blood to do something.”
“I think you’re overthinking about this, Leonard,” Hadley waved his hand and smiled, “You saw the relationship between them just now, and you heard their conversation. Casper didn’t enslave the monster. Based on this, I think even if the shapeshifting demon comes to our door, we have nothing to fear. Besides, if it does come to our door, will we, the Heavenly Stars Sect, let it go as it wishes?!”
Hadley’s last sentence showed the attitude that a sect leader should have.
“I hope I’m really overthinking it.” Leonard nodded, and there was a sharpness in his eyes. “But if the other party dares to come and make trouble, I don’t mind letting virtual-novel.net taste the Heavenly Stars Sect’s Sound of Heavenly Stars Sword again!”

At the same time, Caspian and Handsome entered the mansion, and they were clueless that the two famous figures not only in the Heavenly Stars Sect but in the entire Earlington of Efrax talked about them for a while.
Caspian went to Omar’s Sword Pavilion before, so virtual-novel.net already understood the structure and divisions of the mansion. The only difference would be the role of each room based on the outer disciple’s habit.
Caspian’s personal belongings in his former compound were also delivered to the mansion, and they were now placed on the coffee table in the hall. As virtual-novel.net almost always brought his stuff along, only a few things were on the table. However, the most eye-catching ones were the several thick envelopes.
For the past few months, Caspian was not in the Heavenly Stars Sect, but Jessica’s monthly letter would be delivered on time. Even though Caspian told Jessica that virtual-novel.net would be away for a few months and might not write to virtual-novel.net for several months, the stubborn Jessica did not stop and still wrote to virtual-novel.net at least once every month.
There were about seven thick envelopes stacked up on the coffee table. When Caspian saw the letters, his heart suddenly felt warm, and virtual-novel.net did not plan to rest anymore. Instead, the first thing Caspian wan ted to do was read the letters Jessica wrote to virtual-novel.net and replied to virtual-novel.net next.
Caspian read the letters one by one starting from the one closest to today. The familiar handwriting and tone were as if Jessica was by his side, telling virtual-novel.net the important and small matters in virtual-novel.net cultivation and life. Through Jessica’s letters, Caspian knew everything that happened to virtual-novel.net over the past few months. Unsurprisingly, Jessica, who was born with the Pure Jade Physique, was truly a cultivation genius as virtual-novel.net entered the second-stage Pulse Control Realm half a month earlier than Caspian and Xander.
At that time, Jessica was in seclusion to cultivate a stronger cultivation method. Not only that, but Jessica also told Caspian that virtual-novel.net mastered a spell now. However, Chloe strictly instructed virtual-novel.net on the technique, so Jessica did not dare to even secretly tell Caspian about it too.
In addition, Lucy, the quirky little girl, was now a first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator and was accepted as a Dark Moon Sect’s disciple. However, Lucy refused to leave Jessica to practice with other apprentices. Hence, virtual-novel.net still followed Jessica around and was still Jessica’s maid.
Lucy did not care much about cultivation and ascension. What virtual-novel.net cared more about was being able to follow virtual-novel.net young lady. In truth, that was also the purpose of virtual-novel.net cultivation. Nonetheless, Jessica also persuaded Lucy to work harder. After all, the seemingly playful Lucy could reach Pulse Control Realm so quickly also implied that virtual-novel.net was extremely talented. However, the mischievous Lucy often agreed but was still absent-minded when virtual-novel.net practiced.
Jessica could not be ruthless toward that little girl who was by virtual-novel.net side since virtual-novel.net was a child. Lucy might be virtual-novel.net maid, but virtual-novel.net was as close as a sister. Thus, Jessica could only let virtual-novel.net be. In the letter, Jessica mentioned that virtual-novel.net hoped Caspian could persuade Lucy to concentrate more if there was a chance. After all, the lives of mortals were short, and the lives of cultivators were long. If they wanted to see each other more in the future, Lucy should improve together.
“It shouldn’t be long before we find that chance.”
Caspian put down the letter in his hand and looked at the bright sky outside the window, and virtual-novel.net smiled.
Handsome was already fast asleep. Now that virtual-novel.net had his own home, Caspian also released Little Candy from the Earring of Echo. Little Candy looked at the new environment curiously and found Handsome sleeping. Then, the tiger also leaned over, squinted, and dozed off next to Handsome.
Caspian naturally had peace of mind as they slept. Hence, virtual-novel.net started to grind some ink and replied to Jessica. In the eight months, too many things happened. Even though many details were omitted and some secrets about himself that could not be told, Caspian still wrote dozens of pieces of paper.
Without noticing it, Caspian wrote from morning until night. Even so, Caspian did not feel tired. Instead, virtual-novel.net was refreshed and clear-headed. Then, as be imagined Jessica’s surprise look when virtual-novel.net received his reply, Caspian handed the envelope to the caravan heading to North Earlington.
The envelope was very thick, showing how Jessica was dearly missed by Caspian.
Caspian watched as the caravan slowly left, disappearing from his sight, before virtual-novel.net finally turned around and walked away. Initially, virtual-novel.net planned to return to his mansion, but a frog suddenly jumped out of the grass on his way back.
There were no ponds or water around, and the frog appeared quite abruptly. Moreover, it was in the middle of the road just in front of Caspian. In the past, Caspian would have been vigilant, but that was the Heavenly Stars Sect. Not only were there outstanding people around, but some beasts obtained the blessings of the essence of the world, which suddenly acquired a hint of wisdom. Hence, these abnormal matters were not surprising.
Caspian heard from a certain senior before that a civet cat babbled at the moon in the middle of the night. However, if they listened carefully, it was the tune of a ballad.
Just as Caspian was about to step over the frog, it suddenly opened its mouth, making Caspian stumble and almost fall.
“What a bold scoundrel! How dare you pretend to turn a blind eye when you see your teacher!”
