Noticing the change in Fade's expression, Hewez smiled and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Fade, don't feel pressured. Double Blades and Prohibition Island have been fighting for centuries. They've been at each other's necks, but they are still here after so long. This is not an overnight matter." "Besides, Master Hsuanyuen adopted and trained you to deal with Prohibition Island, not to be a Double Blades killer."
"He once said that when you grow up and know the truth, you can make your own choice. Whether you want to join the Double Blades or not, we won't force you."
Hearing this, Fade was moved and felt warm in his heart.
He was only hearing from one side, so it was hard to differentiate the good and bad between Double Blades and Prohibition Island. However, with his limited experience, judging from the scene he saw in the dungeon of Skytop Palace and his master's attitude towards himself, he leaned more towards believing in Double Blades.
Multiple scenes flashed through his mind. He suddenly recalled the task of passing a message to Yarrow in Skytop Palace.
Without hesitation, Fade told Hewer the whole story.
After hearing the entire story, Hewer was a little emotional. He smiled and said, "Senior Yarrow is still alive. Master Hsuanyuen must be very happy if he hears the news. I believe the victory of Double Blades won't be far."
"I believe it too!" Fade nodded.
Still, he could not help but ask, "Hewer, what am I supposed to do here? Do I wait until Master heals Grandmaster?"
Hewer replied, "Master Hsuanyuen has informed us that if you complete your mission, we will proceed to the next step."
"The next step? What is it?" Fade looked puzzled.
Hewer smiled and looked at him, saying, "Cultivation!" "Cultivation?" Fade looked at him in astonishment.
Hewez said, "I know that you are quite talented in cultivation. In the past few years, you have made rapid progress, and now, you have become a well-known person. Are you too into yourself?"
"Hewez, I'm not..." Fade scratched his head. He wanted to deny it, but when he thought of the battle with Viktor and Taruca, his expression turned serious.
Looking at Hewez, he nodded and admitted, "Yes, a little. Ever since I entered the Lord Level, the opponents I met were all defeated in the end, no matter if they were the leaders of the major martial arts organizations, the Sacred Hall, or Dragon Bone Island."
"Thus, I let down my guard on the Lord Level masters. I only noticed how far I was from mastering cultivation when I met with Viktor and Taruca in the Ice-sealed Realm. A real master is way stronger than me."
Hewez patted him on the shoulder, "I'm glad that you acknowledge your shortcomings, but don't belittle yourself. You're still so young. To be able to reach Lord Level at your age, you're already much stronger than us at the very least."
"Viktor and Taruca, they have both been toptier experts of the Lord Level for over thirty years. You've just entered the Lord Level. Compared to them, it's natural for you to be at a disadvantage."
Fade listened carefully and then asked, "Hewez, how can I improve myself so that I can catch up with them as soon as possible?"
Instead of giving him a direct answer, Hewez returned him with a question, "Fade, have you ever heard about how everyone says that the Lord Level is the peak of martial arts and that once you reach there, you are of tip top standards?"
