    Madfist was left dumbfounded by the goal Frank had set. "You need to take your pills, boy. You look like you''re possessed—"


    "Indeed I am." Frank grinned proudly. "My mentor had given me a recipe before, and he imed that if I seed in making it, I would rise beyond the Transcendent rank and be immortal.


    "That made me think-if such an option is avable to us, what''s the harm in trying? Or perhaps you boys aren''t interested in rising beyond your human bonds?"


    Everyone looked eager when they heard such stirring encouragement from Frank.


    On the other hand, Madfist was silent, as he felt that Frank had really lost his mind today.


    However, with such grand ambitions envisioned, even Madfist had to admit that he was interested.


    "Well, we''re now Mystic Sky Guild, and we''ll be equals to the Southsea Four... No, we shall be one of the Southsea Five!" "Yeah!!!"


    Even as everyone cheered, the former thugs—or indeed Frank himself-did not expect Mystic Sky Guild to be one of Draconia''s greatest factions.


    For his part, Frank was not taking a break just yet.


    After he offered those former thugs ambition, he hastened his research on that immortal pill as promised.


    With his cultivation improving, he was feeling that he was ascending beyond the boundary of mortal man but he yet to touch the limit of what he could really do.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Back then, Frank''s own mentor was trying to reach and rise beyond that limit, but it was a move that had clearly hurt a certain faction''s interest. That was why Mystic Sky Sect found themselves under siege by all of Draconia and even factions abroad.


    Even as Frank matured, he realized that something breathtaking was involved.


    Were there individuals who had risen beyond the Transcendent rank, who would refuse to allow a second immortal to exist in Draconia?


    The thought shocked Frank even as it urred to him.


    After all, rising beyond the Transcendent rank meant that they would have gained power beyondprehension-powerparable to the gods. Naturally, it was just a rumor-no one had actually encountered immortals who had risen beyond.


    Nheless, Frank was spending


    et


    the next few days researching his immortal pill and helping those former thugs develop potentialpatible for martial arts.


    That was when Podrick Daffey, Geon e Kramer''s captain, called him in the middle of the night, saying that Geon had something important to say and wanted to meet.


    "Something important?!"


    Frank did a double take, remembering just then that Geon had told him that the Lionhearts had yet to tell him about his next move.


    With that in mind, could the Lionhearts have given Geon further instructions now?


    Frank did not hesitate-picking up


    one of his jackets, he dashed out of his hotel and took a cab straight to themissioner''s residence in Zamri Square.


    He was allowed in after telling the door guards who he was, and he entered Geon''s study to find Geon with his back to him.


    The guards closed the door behind him, while Frank strode up to Geon, pping him on the shoulder. "Have the Lionhearts given you further instructions?"


    Geon, however, did not answer.


    Frank was taken aback-did he fall asleep?


    However, when Frank shook his shoulder, Geon''s head suddenly fell on the desk with a thud!
