Fane examined the items for some time before a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. "Haha... Master Hemperly, there isn't a lot of spirited grass here but they are attractive enough. Hence, I agree to your terms!"
The members of the Hemperly family relaxed when they saw that Fane had agreed to their suggestion.
Master Hemperly immediately stood up and gestured with his hands to Fane as he voiced out his appreciation. "Thank you, Young Master Fane. If that's the case, I shall leave my son and the others here with a reassured mind. I believe that they will be safe as Young Master Fane promised us!" "Haha... I can only assure you that nothing would happen to them while they are with the Woods family as we will try our best to protect them!" Fane laughed before he continued speaking slowly. "However, there's nothing I can do if they leave the Woods family by themselves. After all, we can't restrict them with a rope, right?"
"That is true, that is true. We promise to not simply run around!" One of the elders from the Hemperly family nodded in satisfaction.
"If that's the case, let me arrange accommodations for your people!" Nash nodded. He ordered a member of the
Woods family to lead the Hemperlys out and arrange accommodations for them.
After the other party left, Nash turned around to ask Fane, "Fane, have you thought this through? If we don't promise them, we can slightly relax when the other first-class aristocratic families or Skies Pavilion that did not obtain the stone ball focus on the Hemperly family. You also mentioned that they did not give us a large amount of spirited grass and we aren't suffering from a shortage, why did you choose to get involved in this trouble?"
The First Elder, Kenneth, also immediately spoke up with a frown on his face. "That's true, Young Master Fane. If we ignore them, we would benefit from this. We don't owe the Hemperly family anything. On the contrary, we would have more time to focus on studying this stone ball if the others had them as targets!”
“They didn't give us a lot of spirited grass but they were not stingy either!" Fane started explaining. "What is important is that a lot of the gifted spirited grass were suitable to be cultivated into pills. These items were separated and placed aside. They know that I'm an alchemist and they specially arranged these gifts. The most critical part of everything is that two of these items are auxiliary materials required when cultivating a fourth-grade elementary pill, the resurrection pill."
"I see!" Nash and First Elder exchanged glances as they finally understood Fane’s intention. After all, the fourth-grade elementary pill known as the resurrection pill was indispensable if they wanted to save Fernando's life. Based on Fane's temperament, he would not pass on the auxiliary materials even if there was only a slim chance for them to succeed in cultivating the pill.
"That would be fine then. Some of our geniuses had continuously broken through these few days, and our overall strength is still improving. We also have an increasing number of people in the initial stage of the true god level. Apart from that, who would know that we have hidden a few people at our place if we kept this a secret? Even if they learn about this later on, who knows when that would be!” In the end, Nash smiled and said.
