"All I have to do is head to Astonkay and get your demon beast back, right?" Libraia asked. "You have a way to find it once you're there, it seems." Back then, Libraia had a few more months before she could head back to Jhiod Sect. Obviously, after five years, she had already left Lebgram Continent and returned.
Rean's group was confused as to why Libraia was there, though. "It's not like you came here just to help us, right? We're definitely happy that someone at your level would bring Celis there to get Kentucky back. However, what's the real reason for your appearance?"
Libraia nodded with a smile, saying, "Indeed. The reason I came here is that the other factions have finally found out that we have members capable of using weapon intents."
Roan narrowed his eyes after hearing that. "That took longer than I expected. Let me guess, it was one of the other two clan members who couldn't hold back the fact they could use a Weapon Intent Seed and used it outside."
Libraia shrugged her shoulders, saying, "Yeah. It was Brimi. You three have sparred with him many times during these five years, so it shouldn't be a surprise. That brat is full of himself and hates holding back. In the end, during a fight against the Galeria Clan in the arenas, he used his Intent Seed to gain the upper hand. Naturally, everyone watching it passed the news around. Now the other factions are all over us, asking to help the Jhiod Sect become stronger by sharing the thing we've been doing."
All of it had been predicted way before the twins joined the sect, so none of the people and the tree in that room were surprised by that. "Since he learned a weapon intent, it meant he had someone to learn it from, even though it can't really be taught. It goes without saying that your clan had to release the information about the two of us as well as you and the last guy being able to use it."
Libraia nodded, saying, "Exactly. However, as you know, it would have been revealed sooner or later. Now that it happened, grandfather has also announced that you two will be representing the Yume Clan members during the Jamai Sect Selection six years from now. With your weapon intents, and especially since the other factions want to learn it, they definitely won't complain about it. Besides, it's not like our Yume Clan has anyone close to your levels."
After Rean showed his strength against the Galeria Clan five years ago, he went into hiding in the Yume Clan. The other top cultivators around Rean's level came to ask for him to fight them, but they were all refused. At some point, the other geniuses simply forgot Rean even existed. It went without saying that Roan hasn't made a single appearance either.
Nevertheless, the twins knew what that meant. "Simply put, we can't go out of the Jhiod Sect anymore as it would be too risky. The other factions will definitely have their eyes on us. The same goes for the other two clan members."
Libraia agreed with them. "Yep. Well, I also learned my Sword Intent Seed. However, my cultivation is very high, so I'm not afraid of going out. That's why I volunteered myself to bring Celis to Astonkay. First, I could go there much faster than Kentucky did. Second, it would prevent you two from having to go yourselves."
Celis didn't mind. "As long as I get someone to help, I have no issues. When can we depart?"
Libraia then used her spatial powers to grab Celis's body. "I don't like wasting time. We're heading there now!" Before Celis could say anything, natural runes appeared around the Space Power that Libraia was using. Soon after, the two disappeared from the room.
Seeing that, Rean looked at Roan and asked, "What do you think?"
Roan shook his head, saying, "She must be strong enough if she is that confident. Leave it to her and Celis to deal with. Besides, Kentucky might be in no danger at all. From what we know from that chicken, he might be stuck in a city, being revered by girls again."
"Sigh..." Rean felt helpless. "Chances are very high indeed. Well, it's not like Kentucky must follow our orders either. He's free to do whatever he wants."
*Knock, knock...*
Suddenly, the twins heard the sound of someone knocking on their door. "Enter."
Following that, a subordinate of the Yume Clan entered the room, telling them, "I'm sorry for disturbing you. Clan Head Philip has requested your presence in the council of elders of the sect. It seems like something important is ongoing, and he needs your presence."
Sure enough, Libraia was right. The information about their weapon intents has already caused a lot of ruckus in the sect. "Very well, lead the way."
A few minutes later, the twins arrived at a huge wall, where many of the Jhiod Sect elders were present. Obviously, they recognized Brimi and Galato. Those two were the Yume Clan members that also awakened their weapon intents. Brimi seemed especially nervous as he stood beside Philip. From the looks of it, Philip wasn't the least bit happy that Brimi let the information leak like that. As for Galato, he was a composed guy. Since it was not his fault, he simply kept his eyes closed as he waited for the next events.
"Rean, Roan, come to my side," Philip obviously called the twins over.
Seeing that everyone was present, the Jhiod Sect Leader, who was also present, started the meeting. His name was Gean Galeria. As mentioned before, he was a member of the Galeria Clan. "Let's get over with it. The Yume Clan has got its hands on a few cultivators capable of using weapon intents. Except for Libraia, all of them are here now, beside Philip. We are here to discuss how to treat this evenly, which is of huge importance to our Jhiod Sect as a whole."
