Chapter 5671
- “What? David Bishop is now the Imperial Tutor of the Duncan Mansion? Based on what the Branch Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan said, it seems like that old man is still in the Duncan Mansion? It... it seems like we have to put the matter of assassinating David Bishop on hold... I’ll have to inform the leader about this and let him decide how we should proceed...” ... Before Shawn left to look for the Leader of the Blood Skull Gang, he hurriedly sent a message to the remaining two assassins hiding outside of the Duncan Mansion’s estate. Samuel and the other assassin were shocked when they received the message asking them to not make a move even if David Bishop left the Duncan Mansion alone. They could not help but wonder about what happened. ... In the Duncan Mansion’s Imperial Tutor Pavilion. After David Bishop returned from the residence of the Mansion Master of the Duncan Mansion, he continued cultivating. With the help from the Celestial Fruits and Celestial Pills given to him by the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion, his cultivation speed was incredibly fast. When Sia woke up, she returned the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity to David Bishop so he could comprehend the law of space while sleeping. The duo repeated this cycle as time continued to pass. ... After half a month, Sia completely absorbed the efficacy of the Ice King Celestial Fruit and the Fire King Celestial Fruit and smoothly became a One Basic Celestial King. ‘As expected of a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox. Not only is her cultivation speed fast, but she absorbed the efficacy of the Celestial Fruits just as quickly.’ David Bishop sighed emotionally upon discovering Sia’s breakthrough after he had woken up. David Bishop was about to resume his cultivation when he suddenly received a message from the Mansion Master of the Duncan Mansion. “David Bishop, I just received news regarding the Phantom Fox Clan. Upon his return to the clan, Otto sent some of his men to the borderland of the Southern Heaven Territory. Does this have anything to do with the woman next to you?” ‘The borderland?’ David Bishop’s eyes narrowed into slits when he heard the message. ‘Seems like the branch leader knows something... I’m sure this has something to do with the Blood Skull Gang.’ It was not difficult for him to guess how the Phantom Fox Clan found out about his connection to the borderland. His eyes flashed with killing intent as he muttered to himself, “If I knew this would happen, I should have let the pavilion master kill those three assassins!” After a moment, he finally replied to the Mansion Master of the Duncan Mansion, “Mansion master, my companion and I came from the borderland.” “Do you want to send someone to kill the members of the Phantom Fox Clan who are heading to the borderland? Since the branch leader sent them there, he must be privy to some information and sent his men there to verify the information,” the mansion master asked. It was clear that David Bishop only needed to say the word, and he would send people to deal with the members of the Phantom Fox Clan. “There’s no need for that,” David Bishop replied to the mansion master’s message, “Let them investigate. Even if we kill their men, they’d only send more men to investigate the matter...” Although David Bishop appeared outwardly calm, inwardly, he was feeling a sense of crisis. ‘The Blood Skull Gang really investigated my background thoroughly. Since they even investigated the borderland, they must know about Sia. The three assassins lingering outside the estate must have seen her when she was outside the estate as well... As long as the Phantom Fox Clan questions those three assassins, they would surely find out that Sia’s with me now. I’m afraid at this moment Otto already knows that Sia is in the Duncan Mansion.’
