Chapter 228: Little Achievement
However, grade-5 medicinal pills were not the end for the current Ron. With his current peak Great Archmage level and the Strange Sacred Flame, it was only a matter of time before he refined a grade-6 medicinal pill.
“Yes?”
To the two people in front of him, Ron said, “Come, let’s go out!”
Jack was stunned and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Ron smiled and said, “Grandpa and the others are back!”!!
Jack and Sonia were delighted to hear this. The three of them immediately walked out together.
When Ron and the others walked out of the forbidden ground and came to the front courtyard of the Nicholas family, they saw that Norton and the others had returned safely!
The courtyard was lively. Everyone in the clan had rushed over upon hearing the news and surrounded everyone who had returned.
After a while, everyone calmed down.
Then, the main members of the Nicholas family clan gathered in the hall. Norton and the others briefly recounted their experience during this trip, and Ron and the others reported on the recent situation at home.
Norton and the others were surprised to learn that Prince VII had come to the Nicholas family.
Norton frowned slightly and said in a low voice, “Prince VII is deliberately recruiting us, but he has not made it clear. He is only hinting at his attitude to help our Nicholas family build momentum.”
He thought for a moment and asked Ron, “Did the Old Ancestor give any instructions?”
Ron shook his head slightly. “Not yet.”
Norton said, “Then let’s wait. Now that our training has ended, the Old Ancestor should have new instructions soon.”
As he spoke, a hint of anticipation and excitement appeared in his eyes. This was because he knew that the next instruction might be the one he had been looking forward to the most in the past 50 years!
The others understood what Norton meant, and they were all in the same mood.
Now, everyone was holding back a burst of energy, waiting to be vented!
Soon, it was night.
Romo used another Dream Appearing Talisman, which he had not used for a long time, to give Norton a dream.
The next day, Norton summoned the main members of the family again and issued a series of instructions.
Then, the people outside very soon noticed that the Nicholas family clan seemed to have suddenly changed from quiet to activity. People who usually did not show themselves had started to appear frequently, as if they were busy with something.
After asking around, people gradually discovered that the Nicholas family seemed to be moving!
Yes, it was as if they were making all kinds of arrangements to move!
This situation surprised many people who had been paying attention to the Nicholas family. They could not understand the significance of this from the Nicholas family.
All kinds of rumors had started to appear again. Some said that the Nicholas family was about to face a calamity and that they were preparing to relocate and flee. Others said that Prince VII had made better arrangements and they were going to develop elsewhere. Some guessed that the Nicholas family was going back to the Holy Light City to take revenge…
In the study, Colin Campbell was reading a letter which Serena had sent back from her hometown.
Colin Campbell was pleased to see his granddaughter say in the letter that her cultivation level had increased again after she had concentrated on her cultivation.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Colin Campbell frowned slightly and asked, “What is it?”
A servant outside the door reported, “Master, the head of the Nicholas family is here.”
Colin Campbell’s eyes lit up when he heard this. He immediately said, “Please welcome him in!”
A moment later, Norton came to the study. When he saw Colin Campbell, he smiled and said, “Brother, long time no see.”
“You also know that it has been a long time.” Colin Campbell pretended to be displeased and joked, “I wonder what you have been busy with recently. I can’t even find you. Have you finally finished your work?”
The two of them sat down at the coffee table by the window. Colin Campbell pointed to the letter on the desk and smiled. “My Serena has just written today. She has asked me to convey her regards to you.”
Norton smiled and said, “How is Serena doing at the Sky Blue Magic Academy?”
Colin Campbell stroked his beard and smiled. “She’s doing fine. She said that she had performed well in the competition between the new disciples of the academy and that the academy’s dean had rewarded her with a sacred medicine. She had just broken through to the Great Archmage realm.”
Norton narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Serena is talented and smart. I’m very pleased with this granddaughter-in-law. Soon, I’ll get Ron to marry her.”
Colin Campbell was stunned for a moment before he laughed out loud. “Hahaha! Since you have said so, I’ll be waiting then for the betrothal gifts from the Nicholas family clan! Let me make this clear first, if the gifts are no good, I won’t agree to it!!”
Norton smiled meaningfully and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely ensure that you’ll be pleased with the gifts!”
As he spoke, he waved his right hand across the coffee table between them, and a few glass bottles appeared out of thin air.
Colin Campbell could not help being stunned. “What are these?”
He looked at the glass bottles and his nostrils twitched. Then, his eyes lit up. He looked at Norton and smiled. “By the way, these can’t be the betrothal gifts, right?”
“Of course not. How can the betrothal gifts be so shabby?” Norton laughed and said, “These are just some parting gifts.”
Colin Campbell was slightly shocked to hear this. “What do you mean? Are you leaving?”
Norton nodded and said, “We’re leaving Winterfrost tomorrow.”
Colin Campbell was a little nervous and concerned. “All of you? Who else? Where are you going?”
“Everyone from the Nicholas family clan.” Norton’s eyes flickered. “We’re going back to the Holy Light City!!”
Colin Campbell was shocked this time. “Return to the Holy Light City?! What are you guys…?”
Before he could finish, his eyes suddenly widened. He looked at Norton in disbelief and stammered, “Great Archmage realm! You….”
Just now, Norton had taken the initiative to reveal his level. Only then did Colin Campbell realize that the other party was already at the Great Archmage realm!!
As a friend of decades, Colin Campbell could not believe it.
“That’s right, I’m already of the Great Archmage realm.” Norton smiled and said, “Our entire clan has had a fortuitous encounter recently. Our strength is no longer the same as before. As for the details, please forgive me for not being able to tell you.”
Colin Campbell looked at Norton in a daze. His mind was in a mess. A fortuitous encounter? What did it mean? The Sky Blue Magic Academy? The Guardian Spirit Beast? Or was it the Seventh Prince? It turned out that Ron was not the only one in the Nicholas family clan that had a fortuitous encounter, but the entire family clan?!
After a while, Colin Campbell suppressed his many questions and said hesitantly, “But are you really going back to the Holy Light City now? Isn’t this too risky?”
Norton smiled faintly and said confidently, “Don’t worry, we’re confident!”
Even after Norton had left, Colin Campbell had not fully recovered from the shock.
Although Norton had told him that it was inconvenient to reveal the details, even revealing the tip of the iceberg was enough to make Colin Campbell find it unbelievable.
Colin Campbell returned to the study and saw the bottles of pills on the coffee table. His heart skipped a beat and he hurried forward to pick them up.
