    After exining the situation to Jewel, Timothy, and River they all breathed a sigh of relief before traveling back to grab some clothes. By the time they returned with his spare clothes, Yoze noticed that they had more security by having a few more Blood Masters with them.


    Once they arrived back, Jewel ced his spare clothes behind a tree so that he could put them on in peace.


    "That is better," After putting on his clothes Yoze felt morefortable and walked out from behind the tree where the others were waiting for him.


    "Schr Yoze, we asked the city for your request for special ess and we are d to inform you that the city has epted your request," River told Yoze the moment she saw him.


    "That''s good, "


    "There is better news, that the city is going to give you the upgraded Iron Skin body cultivation method and a few items at your demand," River said as she handed Yoze a book with the words Iron Muscle and a picture of a muscr grey stick figure.


    "Perfect this is exactly what I wanted, " Yoze couldn''t help but nod his head as he was nning on focusing on upgrading his defense.


    "Can I also get a few more defensive body cultivation books and techniques?"


    "That should not be an issue, is there anything that you want? You did a massive service to the City and you could request more and the City should be happy to ept."


    "In that case, I''ll like to meet a Martial Grandmaster," Yoze said.


    "I''ll ask when we get back but you should be able to meet one soon." River nodded her head as this was the kind of request that she expected from Yoze.


    After chatting a bit more with Timothy and River, Yoze and Jewel decided to leave ahead of time as the trip was going to be slower since they needed to carry six people back. Hearing that Yoze was going to leave them behind, Timothy and River felt a bit reluctant, they were both injured from the ambush and many of thepanions had died.


    After such a terrible experience they wanted to feel the safety and peace that Yoze brought them. They just couldn''t feel the same amount of safety from being protected by other Blood Masters as they could from getting protected by someone who could defeat Martial Grandmasters and y demons.


    However, there was nothing that they could say to ask Yoze to take them with him when they were not far from the city. Luckily, at thest moment, they heard Jewel advocate for them.


    "Wait, let''s at least take River with us. She made the trip much morefortable and I didn''t have to worry about the wind or getting sick." Jewel looked at Yoze''s back with reluctance as she remembered how sick she felt after thest time she rode it alone.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    Yoze looked at River and Jewel and could understand her concerns since he found out how Blood Masters were able to carry a regr person at travel at their full speed and not make that person extremely sick or die during the travel. The reason was abination of a better movement technique and using the blood to create a barrier that prevents the wind from wreaking havoc.


    Since Yoze''s movement technique was derived from a movement technique that had less of a focus on traveling much less traveling with people, the experience for anyone was bound to be terrible. He also wasn''t yet a Blood Master so he couldn''t improve the experience for Jewel unless he slowed down and made sure that she was alright from time to time.


    With a terrible traveling experienceing her way, he could understand why she wanted to travel with River since she had made traveling on his back not only tolerable but fun.


    "That''s fine with me, what''s your opinion on the matter River?" Yoze turned toward River since her opinion mattered.


    "I would love to but can you also take Timothy with us, with himing along we can block out more wind and make the trip even morefortable. " River said, trying her best to convince Yoze and Jewel that taking her brother along with her was worth it.


    Of course, if she failed she still nned on going along since at the end of the day Timothy was a Blood Master that could survive an ambush of Blood Masters so he should be fine. Knowing that his sister was trying her best to convince Yoze and Jewel, Timothy felt touched.


    "Yeah, that''s fine by me. Carrying you three is easy, so you have to pick where you sit."


    Yoze didn''t mind taking all three of them with him since it wasn''t an inconvenience instead he preferred taking them along since it allowed him to have a conversation during the trip and not have to pay much attention to making the journeyfortable.


    After picking up Jewel, River, and Timothy, Yoze hopped away at lightning speed leaving the remaining soldiers to deal with transporting the five Tree Sect members and Martial Silver Thunder''s body. By the time they arrived back home, they smelled the delicious smell of cooked demon meat and knew that his father was making breakfast.


    The moment the smell mmed into Timothy and River''s noses they heard their stomach growling, urging them to eat whatever was making such a delicious scent. Also hearing their stomachs growl Yoze smiled as he loved the fact that his father''s cooking was not only rapidly improving but he could also see the smile on his face whenever he cooked.


    "Would you two like to join us for breakfast?" Yoze asked Timothy and Jewel.


    "You don''t mind that we smell terrible, wouldn''t it ruin the mood?" River looked at her wounds had the smelly paste and felt worried that it would not be respectful to intrude while smelling terrible.


    "Nonsense, it doesn''t matter if you smell one one is going to mind. Plus, you only stink since you are using my paste so how can I reject you because of that?
