?


    As E was about to break the deal, Elder Hilda could only step up and smooth things over.


    Upon seeing this, Ezra did not persist in her request, merely giving an alternate suggestion, "Since that is the case, I want half of that 1000 feet duct beast''s crystals."


    Elder Hilda immediately had something to say about this.


    However, E Abe was faster. "Deal." She rather split the benefits than yield.


    In addition, she did not want to owe the prince anything. After all, Ezra caused this all mess by mistake and owing him would be a shame for her. Hence, splitting half of the Duct Creation Energy would be perfect, with everyone getting what they needed and no one owing anyone else anything. It would also prevent her from feeling indebted to Ezra when they met again.


    This was something the prideful E could not ept.


    When Elder Hilda saw how decisively E had responded, she could only somewhat helplessly say, "Lass, half of the Duct Creation Energy crystal will not be enough for you to reach 8 paths of Ablution."


    E calmly replied, "No matter, we are not losing out either as long as we ensure that Wilson is unable to get a lead."


    Elder Hilda could only smile bitterly as she shook her head. Thisss was really too stubborn, she could clearly enjoy theplete Duct Creation Energy crystal if she hadn''t opened her mouth.


    Ezra released a small whistle as he nced at E in slight surprise, evidently not expecting her to make such a decision.


    The whistle was made for Sk?ll and Hati, the two cubs quickly jumped andnded on his shoulders.


    Ezra Zephyr offhandedly asked, "Shall we go then?"


    E nodded, before her cold as an ice mountain eyes turned towards the cubs. "They areing along, right?"


    E asked, she witnessed the terrifying power of these cubs.


    "That goes without saying." Replied the prince


    Her gaze swept past Ezra and the cubs, somewhat curious about their rtionship. It was clearly no ordinary rtionship and went far beyond that of a simple contracted master and pet rtionship.


    This baffled E even more. Based on her initial impression, these cubs were clearly rather indifferent and powerful martial animals. Even she couldn''t see the martial prowess of these two little cubs.


    In E''s opinion, not even many of the inner mountain disciples could tame such martial animals. However, Ezra and they had such a close rtionship. This really greatly puzzled the former.


    How had Ezra obtained the trust of these mysterious animals


    While such thoughts were swirling in her heart, Elder Hilda spoke up, "Since everything has been settled, you guys should hurry up and act. It will not be appropriate for me to interfere in the subsequent matters."


    ording to the rules of the sect, battles in the energy reservoir were the affairs of the disciples, and the duty elder was only here to respond to any unexpected events. The main reason she hade here was that she had been rmed by E Abe''s killing intent, and now that everything had been resolved, Elder Hilda naturally had to return to patrolling the energy reservoir.


    E gave a faint nod and Elder Hilda revealed a kind smile to Ezra as spiritual energy rose under her feet. She rose into the air and swiftly disappeared into the horizon.


    In the wake of Elder Hilda''s departure, the atmosphere by the reservoir turned silent again.


    E was cold and Ezra was carefree, both were unresponsive. If the other party did not speak, they would not open their mouths either.


    "We don''t have all the time, boy. Hurry up!" Fenrir reminded.


    After some silence, Ezra was the first to cave in under the silent atmosphere. "Senior sister Li, shall we get going? If you know the location, lead the way."


    E shot a look at Ezra and nodded. Without saying anything, she rose into the air and began flying towards a certain direction.


    "This youngdy is really very prideful." Commented Fenrir as he smirked while watching E.


    "No matter how prideful she is, she still can''t kill me." Remarked Ezra Zephyr in his heart, before peering into the distance. "I''m looking forward to seeing what a 1000 feet duct beast is like."


    "Someone is already looking down on you. You''d better not bring too much shame to meter on." Teased Fenrir.


    Ezra cussed as if he really did not mind at all. "It is indeed true that I can not defeat her, a difference in the whole stage is not a joke. But… this won''t be the issue in future." Towards the end, a certain arrogance was finally revealed in his voice.


    With regard to pride, Ezra did not have less than others. However, pride was pride after all, and he had to acknowledge reality. He knew that there was indeed a gap between him and the top 10 rankers for now, but he also believed in himself. It was only a matter of time for him to catch up to them and he had many more ways to step on them.


    As long as he was given some time, he would show E that there was really nothing amazing about a ranker.


    "Are you nning on slowly making her take notice of you, and ultimately sway the tender heart of a maiden? She''s the number one beauty of the Spirit Devouring Mountain''s outer mountains." Fenrir grinned.


    Ezra smiled. "Well… she is above average."


    "Is that so? You''ve already seen her body after all, aren''t you tempted?" Fenrir''s tone was tinged with amusement.


    Ezra''s facial expression changed as he said in an annoyed voice. "Shut the fuck up, you pervert wolf. Let''s get going, we should also find out for ourselves how good those two rankers are."


    Ezra''s foot pushed off the ground as ck lightning thundered out as he moved into the sky, and swiftly began jumping in the direction E had taken earlier.
