"That doesn't explain anything." Julie looked at Gale with confusion. She felt that sentence was full of riddles about which she knew nothing.
"Miss Julie, you don't have to think too much." Gale waved his hand like it was nothing. "I believe you will see it yourself."
Julie shrugged her shoulders. "If you say so."
"Now, I will take my leave." Gale gave a small bow as a courtesy and left the room.
Julie squinted her eyes at the door that was getting shut down. 'He always leaves after talking about so serious stuff and doesn't even try to extend the conversation to spend ti with . Does he really not like ?'
Again, alone in her room, Julie contemplated her worries that could be considered nonexistent according to Gale's heart.
…
Burnheart Family.
The main entrance was decorated with dazzling lamps despite it being morning. Colorful ribbons fluttered in the wind and captured the eyes of many in the streets.
"What are the Burnhearts up to?"
"Are they entertaining so special guests? I rember they only did this on such occasions."
"Whoever ca here might have a certain effect on the situation in the town. I just hope it doesn't harm us common people to a great extent."
Many kinds of gossip rang around the main entrance that had worry and concern within it.
Brustiar and Gravitar were at the forefront, and the rest were behind them.
As they waited and waited, they started to feel sothing was wrong as they could see no kind of carriage or any kind of transport coming towards them.
Gravitar asked with a frown. "Did the ancestors lie to us?"
Brustiar raised his eyebrows. "No, they can't. They won't do sothing that would bring sha to our family."
Gravitar thought about it a little and felt Brustiar was right. The ancestors cared about faces more than anyone present here.
At that mont, soone from behind shouted. "Is that it?"
Brustiar and others looked ahead and saw a black and red carriage that had a tallic shine on its edges, coming in their direction.
'They have finally arrived.' Brustiar straightened up his body and stood with his hand behind his back.
A big crowd was on both sides of the streets as the news of this certain guest coming to the Burnheart Family had spread to every corner of the town by now.
The carriage stopped before Brustiar and others.
Everyone looked with anticipation at who it was, and they beca surprised when they saw it wasn't one but two.
One was skinny yet handso, and he chard the girls on the street with the smug smile on his face. While the other was a bulky man who had an innocent face and a smile on his face like an uncle next door.
These two were Nakal and Kal.
The mont Brustiar and the elders' eyes landed on them, their eyes widened in shock.
Gravitar quickly ford a ntal communication with Brustiar.
'They feel as strong as the ancestors, or maybe more.'
'You are right. I think the ancestors used their past connections to invite them from a giant force. We should use this chance to form our own too.'
'Yes, this chance can't be missed.'
Bac, who was watching them from behind, had his eyes widen as well. Not because he could sense their power, but because of Nimona's massage to him. 'These guys are from a demon sect!? Why would the ancestors want to form connections with a demon sect? That would cause an imdiate disaster!'
Bac didn't know that; no one can even detect they are from the demon sect. To identify a demon cultivator was hard, as they were no different from orthodox cultivators. Only when you clashed with them or sensed the spiritual energy they used could you detect a demon cultivator.
If Brustiar and Gravitar found out that these two were demon cultivators, they would attack them without any talk, even if they had strength higher than them.
"Greeting guests from afar, I am the patriarch of the Burnheart Family, Brustiar." Brustiar gave them a martial salute and then went to introduce Gravitar. "This is our head elder, Gravitar."
Gravitar also gave them a martial salute.
However, except for Kal, who showed them a big smile in return, Nakal was just looking around at the various girls with a smile that showed his cute fang.
Brustiar and Gravitar felt disrespected, but they buried the dissatisfaction in their hearts. Brustiar asked with a smile. "Please co this way."
Nakal and Kal followed them and entered the mansion.
Leaving many maidens' hearts gasping in frustration.
…
In the main hall.
Nakal and Kal could be seen sitting next to each other on a sofa.
Just as they sat down, the ancestors arrived, making every mber of the Burnheart Family bow in respect.
With their hands behind their backs, they walked toward the sofa with arrogance, not even properly glancing at their descendants.
But it was a different picture when they ca before Nakla and Kal. They bowed a little when they gave a martial salute to them.
This made many people in the room beco surprised.
After sitting down, Pol directly asked. "Guests, let us introduce ourselves. I am Pol, and these two are Bast and Kus."
"May we know yours too?" Pol said with an innocent smile on his face.
"I am Kal, and this is Nakal. Also, I don't wanna say much, just can you hand us over the goods?" Nakal also didn't beat around the bush and directly asked about what they had co here for.
Kus rubbed his hands together like a businessman who was buttering his custor. "Yes, yes, we have picked the finest there is to offer. I believe the Lord will be very satisfied with them."
"Good," Nakal nodded his head in contentnt. "Then show us where the good are, and we wil-"
Nakal wasn't able to finish his sentence when Kal pointed at a girl from the Burnheart Family who was clutching her clothes in sha and nervousness. "Can I get that girl for myself?"
This imdiately caused the hall to fall into absolute silence.
