"Where's Reese?"
"He'll be here soon."
As soon as he said that, the sound of footsteps came from the door.
A pretty little face peeked in through the gap in the door. With some light makeup, she looked less pure and more charming than before.
"I'm not late, am I?" She blinked her eyes at Garon and Accord, her gaze focused on Accord.
"Just in time." Accord smiled and answered casually.
The door was pushed open. Reese did not come alone. There were three people behind him, two men and one woman. They were all wearing the Dragon Light Sect's light silver clothes with a flying dragon emblem embroidered on their cuffs. The men were handsome and the woman was beautiful, but there were traces of cosmetic surgery on their faces.
"It just so happens that a few of my seniors came with me. They heard that we were having a gathering, so they came to join in the fun. You don't have any objections, right?" Reese said with a grin.
Accord's eyes flashed with a trace of discomfort, but he did not say anything.
"It's fine, it's fine." Garon hurriedly said. He knew Accord's temper. He was arrogant and would give you a hard time if you didn't agree with him.
However, Reese actually brought someone else in, even though it was supposed to be a gathering of three people, it made people uncomfortable.
"Let's get to know each other. I'm Reese's senior, Dios. Shall we be friends?" The young man in the lead reached out and shook Garon's hand.
"Garon. Chixue Sect. "
"Chixue Sect?" Dios did not seem familiar with it, but he quickly found the information and knew that it was a small sect, so he smiled politely. He looked at Garon. There did not seem to be anything out of the ordinary. It was just an ordinary level four wave. It was even worse than Reese's, so he did not pay much attention to it. Instead, he focused his attention on Accord.
"Nebula's Accord?" He raised an eyebrow and took the initiative to reach out. "My big brother is very familiar with your sect's senior, Eke. I heard that you have a very powerful expert from the Dark and Light Sect."
"You're not from Long Guang? Dios, Longguang has never heard of you. "Accord frowned and ignored Dios' outstretched hand and question. This obviously rude behavior immediately made the other two somewhat displeased.
"I'm only staying in Long Guang for the time being. I'm from Black Blade." The young man smiled. There was a hint of condescension in his gentleness.
"Senior Brother Dios is a Black Saber Three Saber level expert!" A girl couldn't help but introduce him with a hint of pride. "It's equivalent to the peak of Inherited Level that you guys categorize!"
"Really?" Accord was speechless. He didn't want to bother with these outsiders at all, but the other party's etiquette was on point, so he couldn't find fault with them. If he continued, it would only make him seem uneducated, so he couldn't be bothered to pay attention to them.
The other two were also Reese's Senior Brothers of the Dragon Light Sect, but they all revolved around Black Blade's Dios. Dios was obviously an arrogant person, and when he noticed that Accord did not express any goodwill towards him, he no longer approached him.
He originally came over because he heard that Accord was an elite of Star Cloud, so he took the initiative to come over and take a look.
He had nothing to do anyway. He was also very clear about Reese's intentions. This Junior Sister that he had a good impression of wanted to pull more connections for her friend, but unfortunately, the other two did not seem to appreciate it.
Forget about Accord, even that Chixue Sect's Garon did not seem to like this kind of behavior.
Garon and Accord gathered together, drinking quietly in the corner of the private room. The rest of them were together, laughing and chatting about something. Soon, it seemed that because of Dios's arrival, more Dragon Light disciples came over one after another, and a few people from medium-sized sects came over to curry favor. There were even two Magnetic Field experts who came, and they seemed to be friends with Dios. They were all on the same level, and suddenly the private room became livelier. Not long after, news came from outside that the entire café had been booked.
Fortunately, the private room that Accord booked was big enough, or it would have really been crowded.
The entire private room was lively. Accord and Garon sat in a corner, showing no intention of joining in the fun.
"Aren't you going to get to know them? These are all experts from large and medium-sized sects, "Accord sent a voice transmission with a sarcastic expression.
Garon raised his wine glass and took a sip.
"What about you? Why don't you go? There are experts on the same level as your Senior Brother here. "
"Forget it. I hate this kind of social interaction the most." A hint of impatience appeared in Accord's eyes. "Let's go out for a walk?"
"Sure."
Garon nodded.
The two of them appeared inconspicuous in the bustling private room, and they quietly left the room. Only Reese, who had been paying attention to the two of them, saw them in the crowd, and a hint of sadness flashed across her heart.
For some reason, she felt that there was a distance between her and the two of them.
However, this thought was instantly diluted by the questions and conversations of the people around her. The experts around her were the key that she had to deal with. Besides, Dios and an expert named Qing Yu were exchanging their experiences on training methods, and she had benefited a lot from it.
Perhaps this was the price to pay for becoming stronger …
She thought so.
She spent so much effort to persuade Senior Brother Dios to come over, and if she could build a relationship with Dios, it would be beneficial to both Accord and Garon. However, she did not expect the two of them to not appreciate it at all.
Recalling Accord and Garon's faces, compared to Senior Brother Dios's gentle smile and lack of arrogance, she vaguely had a bad impression of her two good friends in her heart.
"You guys don't want to improve yourselves, and you don't know how to improve your connections even though you're weak.
*****
Outside the coffee shop, rows of luxury cars were parked, and the crowd was a little deserted. It was already afternoon.
Garon and Accord stood at the side of the door, whispering about some developments in recent years.
"What do you plan to do in the future? Hang out in Scarlet Snow? "Accord asked.
"Maybe." Garon smiled. "Something big might happen recently. You should have noticed that many sects have been annihilated, right?" No matter what, Accord was one of his few friends, and he had helped him a lot in the past. He had the obligation to remind him.
"Why? Do you have some insider information? " Accord did not seem to want to drink anymore, so he poured the wine on the ground and threw the cup to the cleaning robot that was walking over from not far away.
"If you realize that something is wrong, leave quickly. Remember, don't use the teleportation point. "Garon reminded him with a hint of deep meaning.
Accord could see Garon's serious attitude, and his face became serious as well.
"Okay, I'll remember."
Changing the topic, the two of them talked about some things in the past, but they did not understand how Reese became like this.
Clinging onto a powerful Senior Brother, this kind of clinging behavior was the most despised by the two of them.
"Everyone's choice is different. We choose our own path. "Garon said lightly," We can't force a lot of things to stay the same. Don't you think so? "
Accord exhaled.
"Indeed. I didn't expect you to be more open-minded than me. "
Both of them hid their strength in order to not let their friends distance themselves from them, but they did not expect Reese to see them as weaklings who did not want to improve … They were somewhat unhappy.
Now that they chatted for a while under the fresh night air, they barely managed to get rid of some of their frustrations.
However, both of them did not bother to explain. Even if they did, so what? Some people were just like that. So even though they knew that Reese meant well, both of them did not have much of an impression of him.
"I've prepared thoroughly for this competition, and I'm ready to improve at any time. What are your plans? "Accord asked about the sect competition.
"Me too." Garon smiled. "The Chixue Sect is a small sect, just perform well and try to break through the shackles. I think we should be able to get good results this time. "
"Hehe, so confident? Your task is difficult, then let's work hard together. "
"Of course." Garon reached out and gave him a high-five.
"When the competition starts, I'll introduce you to a beauty, didn't I say that last time?" Accord smiled mischievously. "You shouldn't be single at this age."
Garon was helpless. "You're progressing fast, we'll see. We'll see. "
"There are still three days, I have to go back first." He looked at the time. "Alright, it's time to go back. Tell Reese that I won't be going in."
"No, I don't want to go in either. Looking at those people who look down on us like dogs, I'm in a bad mood." Accord waved his hand. "Just inform them with the imprint. We're just two small characters anyway, it doesn't matter if we go or not."
He laughed at himself.
"That's true."
Both of them looked at each other and felt that it was funny.
"See you later."
"Mm, see you later."
*****
There was no delay.
Garon went to Tesna's hotel, picked her up, and drove straight to Scarlet Snow's teleportation point.
Not long after, a white light shot into the sky and shot toward another planet far away.
Accord was walking on the road. At this moment, he happened to be standing in a shadow, looking up at the white light of the volcano crater in Scarlet Snow's direction.
Suddenly, a black shadow appeared behind him.
"Yo, isn't this our Senior Eke?" Accord turned around and looked at the black shadow. "Is there something you need from me, your Junior Brother?"
"Dark Light, Red Skull is here this time too."
"So what?" Accord laughed mockingly. "You're the leader, I'm just the vice-leader."
"The Elder wants you to eliminate the rest in advance. Focus on Red Skull and Black Dragon. "
"Do it secretly?" Accord frowned.
"Up to you. But remember, you must do it cleanly. "The black shadow said in a low voice.
"Are you ordering me?" Accord was annoyed, his body emitting a hint of violence.
Psst!
A black shadow shot out from under him and hit the black shadow hard. Clang!!
The black shadow took two steps back, his hand quickly reached out and grabbed a black venomous snake that appeared silently on his face. The venomous snake's scarlet tongue almost touched his face.
Hiss …
The hand he used to grab the venomous snake started to rot.
"I'm warning you, if you dare to order me around again, I'll kill you!" Accord sneered, turned around and left. "Also, tell the Elder that my goal is the Headquarters' ranking, not this mere Naga's 81 Main Divisions."
The black shadow trembled and walked to the light. It was a black-skinned man, his forehead was covered in sweat. He stared at the direction Accord left with a serious expression, no one knew what he was thinking.
