Chapter 4937
- Naturally, David Bishop did not forget about his cultivation. Currently, he was a yellow-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. The cultivation environment on the prominent Celestial Island in Dell Celestial Sect no longer provided him with enough Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. For this reason, he could only cultivate in Bella Johnson’s room. With the superior cultivation environment provided by Bella Johnson’s Divine Crystal, his cultivation speed was not any slower than when he was a Great Overarching Golden Celestial Realm. He was more than 60% certain he would be able to have a breakthrough and become a profound-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial before the Alchemy Conference! Time continued to pass as David Bishop busied himself with cultivating and learning about alchemy. ... Three months later. ‘It’s been so long... Why hasn’t Brother Peter Hughes returned?’ David Bishop could no longer sit around and wait. He eventually decided to leave the Dell Celestial Sect to head to the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. He would ask Ethan, the Thirteenth Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, about Peter Hughes. ‘I can use this chance to catch up with the thirteenth prince as well... It’s been a while since we last met...’ David Bishop had a strong feeling that Peter Hughes was not in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. Otherwise, Peter Hughes would have looked for him. Regardless, he still decided to make a trip to the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. Upon learning that David Bishop would be leaving the Dell Celestial Sect to visit the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, Bennett who treated David Bishop like a peerless treasure did not hesitate to send Tom, the former Left Guardian and current Supreme Elder of the Dell Celestial Sect, to accompany David Bishop on his trip. “Elder Tom, Lord David wants to visit the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. Please accompany him and make sure he returns to the sect safe and sound.” In the history of the Dell Celestial Sect, nobody had received such a treatment. David Bishop was probably the only person in the sect who was given a Seven Star Celestial Duke as a personal escort. ... After leaving the Dell Celestial Sect’s estate, Tom said to David Bishop, “Lord David, I’ve been wanting to see you before this. However, I was afraid of disturbing your cultivation so I didn’t look for you...” “Elder Tom, there’s no need for you to be so courteous with me... After all, it can be said that I joined the Dell Celestial Sect because of you,” David Bishop said as he shook his head. After a brief pause, he asked, “Elder Tom, is there a specific reason why you wanted to see me?” Tom’s eyes flashed briefly before he said, “It’s nothing... I just heard from the sect leader that you’ll be attending the Alchemy Conference in the Barren Land a year later, and the Old Ancestor will be accompanying you there as well. Most importantly, I heard you’re able to heat a cauldron in only half an hour?” “Elder Tom, do you have doubts?” David Bishop asked with a smile. “It’s not that I doubt you. It’s just... It’s really inconceivable,” Tom said with a wry smile, “Put everything aside, even the sect leader, who has personally witnessed you heating the cauldron twice, had a hard time digesting and believing that fact the first time he saw your skills. Back then, he even wondered if you had heated the cauldron in advance.” “Heated the cauldron in advance?” Indeed. David Bishop finally remembered he had demonstrated his skills in front of Bennett twice. Why did Bennett act as though he had never seen his speed in heating up a cauldron the last time he made a demonstration? He found this quite confusing. However, realization dawned on him after he listened to Tom. It seemed like after his first demonstration, Bennett had assumed that he had heated the cauldron in advance and did not really think he was capable of such a feat. David Bishop shook his head. A wry smile could be seen on his face at this moment. Bennett was really overthinking things. ‘I really didn’t expect the sect leader would have these thoughts back then. No wonder he wanted to see me heating up a cauldron again when the three masters brought me to his residence. It seems like the three masters also knew the sect leader doubted my skills so they were more than happy for me to demonstrate my skills again in front of the sect leader. Well, it’s only natural since the three masters are prominent Celestial Alchemists and can tell I wasn’t cheating. The same can’t be said for the sect leader...’
