One Wish to Own the World

Chapter 198 198 – Reunion With Emrys





"Does it mean because the war ended in a surprise, and it didn't allow you to slip away?"

Seeing Henry nod, Ken got it right on his first try. He was getting the hang of guessing Henry's intentions.

"All right, I will find a chance to let you join that sect later. For now, here, I'm bearing gifts," Ken handed the monk a few books. It was the inheritance he got from the Residence of a Buddha and a Monk. It included cultivation manuals to the seventh rank and 4 different Heaven-grade techniques.

Ken could sense the monk's gratitude and replied, "You don't have to worry about it. I earned it in the central zone when I was there alone. If you're interested, I can integrate your current inheritance with this one to have the best of both worlds. I've done it for Tiara and Alaric, two new companions that might be on our side in the long run."

Henry pondered on the issue for a few seconds and agreed. After a game of guessing his intentions, they came to an agreement that Henry will remain for a few days at Ken's house to write down his inheritance. In order to avoid being caught by the sect with an unreported inheritance, Henry burned everything after memorizing it.

"Miles, you may come back inside."

Ken shouted to the guard and the door soon opened. However, Miles was not alone.

"Young Master, I've forgotten to mention that we left another visitor outside…"

Miles said awkwardly when a little pup barged inside as soon as the door opened and jumped into Henry's lap. Ken could feel the pup was toward the peak of the second rank, and it was much stronger than normal beasts in the second rank with impure bloodlines.

"Huh, it seems that Emrys prefers you guys, you may keep him then."

"Haoouu!" Emrys howled from Henry's lap, agreeing with his master. After all, Ken never gave him much attention, and the pup has been with the monk for over three months now.

"I will just eat those pills by myself," Ken mused to himself, bringing out a Bloodline Refining Pill he had in his storage ring. The young teen pretended to eat the pill and secretly placed it back in the storage ring in a quick motion.

"Hoowwwl!" Emrys howled again in panic and jumped straight to Ken's lap, licking his palms, and rubbing his little nose against Ken's hand. The little pup changed sides quickly when it came to his favorite food.

"Hmph, now you remember who your master is," Ken smiled and stroke the pup's fur and glanced at his room, where the Sun-Scale Dragon Egg was stored. He had gotten an interesting idea after taking the egg.

The little pup felt a slight chill runs through his spine like a bad premonition, but he soon forgot about it when he got to eat his favorite pills after so long that he didn't have them.

"All right, I will be going now. Miles, hire 2 trustworthy bodyguards and let them guard the entrance to the house so you guys can have more free time to cultivate. Just send the bills to Soleil and she will handle it. I have some errands to take care of."

Ken first visited his room and pulled a plank of wood from the floor, revealing a small loose floorboard hiding spot. He pulled a storage ring outside and moved its contents to his new, bigger storage ring.I think you should take a look at

He also used his new cauldron to concoct a few pills before going out. Among them were healing pills, different types of poison, short-term strengthening pills, and others. Their grades ranged from the fourth to the sixth grade, each would serve a purpose in a different situation.

During his time in the Library of Eternal Wisdom, Ken learned many new recipes, improved them, and created a few of his own. His biggest gain was the short-strengthening pills that could empower his body, soul, and mind temporarily.

Ken was already delivered with his Clan Token, Discipleship Token, and his inner disciple robes. He dressed up and left the house toward the Hall of Glory. To gain allies, he first needed merit. An easy way to gain merit was to enter the top ranks again and garner some attention.

"Hello, I'm Ken Sue. I used to be ranked 500 in the age group of 17 to 24. I've been out for three years, thus losing my rank, so I was hoping to reclaim it. I want to challenge rank 500."

"Sure, let me scan your token," The male disciple at the counter placed Ken's token in an inscribed item and soon found Ken's records. His clan already restored them in his new token.

"You are eligible to challenge anyone between ranks 401-500. Is there anyone specific you want to challenge?"

"No, just whoever is available, challenge them and let me know the date. If they set the date for earlier than 48 hours from now, just cancel and set the next challenge until someone sets the fight for the date I want."

When someone challenged an opponent of a higher rank, the challenged disciple had to set the fight for whenever they wanted in the next 72 hours from the moment they received the notification of the challenge. 

Ken wanted to go out to meet Maria, so his request was designed to automatically decline anything set for before his return. However, there was one small problem.

"Young Master, it might harm your reputation, and your deposit of 200 medium Qi Stones will be lost if you cancel a battle."

"Here, use this. It should be enough, and whatever's left, you can have as a tip for your service," Ken threw a thousand medium Qi Stones on the counter nonchalantly. He had gained tons of them in the secret realm, much more than he was going to use in the next year including spending on companions and friends.

"Thank you, Young Master!" The clerk bowed gratefully a few times as Ken turned around and left. It was time to go out and meet Maria, he had a task for the woman.

He went to the gates of the sect and ventured to the forest in the west, bringing out the communication device he had created for communicating with his subordinates 2 years ago. It was stored in the old ring he had retrieved from his room earlier before he left the house.

'Let's see if she still remembers why she should remain loyal to me,' Ken smirked as he recalled the woman who tried to seduce him every time they met.
