Chapter 928: Chapter 927: Arrivals in Succession
"Zuck, Car... Whitley Ortiz?" When the two men in black removed their bamboo hats, Yusuf Zuck immediately recognized them as Benedict Cooke and Whitley Ortiz, the former intelligence team leader of the Dragon Group.
After three thousand eight hundred years, these two had actually come together.
Back when Yusuf Zuck was in the Saint Dragon Continent, he had met Whitley Ortiz once, and she had informed Cooke that she was heading to the South Wilderness. It seemed as if something beyond friendship had occurred between them.
However, upon meeting again, the pair was together because Whitley Ortiz’s belly was slightly bulging, clearly indicating that she was pregnant.
"Boss!" Cooke strode over to Zuck, his eyes red-rimmed. After taking a good look at Zuck, he hugged him tightly.
"Haha... Hahaha." Yusuf Zuck laughed heartily. He had not seen Cooke back on the Saint Dragon Continent, and now here was Cooke, the first to find him in this world.
This was an unexpected joy.
"Good, good, it’s good that you are alive!" Zuck patted Cooke’s back vigorously, while Cooke chuckled heartily, still the honest and simple man he had been years ago.
"Boss, I guess there’s no need to introduce Whitley, right? She said she met you once before." Cooke scratched his head bashfully. When he was with Zuck and the other brothers, he was like a block of wood, completely clueless about women. But love is a difficult thing to explain clearly, and Ortiz, a great beauty, had taken a fancy to him despite his wooden demeanor.
"Whitley, come and sit down. Selena Gould, Red Flamboyance, quickly prepare another table of food and drink, with some dishes suitable for a pregnant woman. Clean up the back room right away." Yusuf Zuck was excited, his lips quivering. This was the uncontrollable joy of reuniting with a family member, and he was almost speaking incoherently.
He had been too lonely and missed his family too much, so how could he not be overwhelmed with emotion when they were reunited?
"You’re impressive, already an eleventh level Earth Immortal." After the trio sat down, Zuck gave Cooke a playful punch. Cooke had reached the level of an eleventh level Earth Immortal, and Whitley Ortiz was at the ninth level.
"If it weren’t for me, Cooke would have been a twelfth level Earth Immortal already," Whitley said, looking at Cooke affectionately.
"Let’s not talk about that," Cooke quickly waved his hand and smiled, "Boss, what about the others? Has anyone else come over?"
"You two are the first to arrive. No one else has come yet. But do you know of anyone else’s whereabouts?" Zuck asked in return.
Cooke shook his head: "We don’t know. We arrived in the Origin Star System later, but we’ve heard that they all made it here too. It’s just that the Origin Star System is so vast, with countless stars and cultivators, it’s impossible to find anyone."
Zuck nodded with a sigh. Cooke and Whitley Ortiz had not been with the others back then.
"Then do you have any news of Isaac Quintana or Harley Strong?"
"We don’t either. After Whitley and I arrived here, we’ve been quietly cultivating in the Immortality Cultivation Sects. Although we sometimes go out, we can’t find any trace of them."
"Well, it’s good that you’re here, just stay here comfortably, don’t go anywhere. Once everyone is here, I will take you... take you back to Earth to have a look!"
"Once we arrived, we had no plans of leaving, and besides, Whitley will be giving birth in a few months. We don’t plan on going anywhere else."
"But the reason I came over in such a hurry was that I received intelligence that Tyler Nash is in Ling City, and in ten days, Hidden Sword Immortal Mansion will open. By then, everyone will come out, so you must be prepared!" Cooke warned in a serious tone.
This was him risking danger, bringing his heavily pregnant wife to warn Zuck, fearing Zuck might be at a disadvantage. And he knew Tyler Nash very well because he had spent the most time with Zuck back in the day.
"I know Tyler Nash is here; we’ve met, but we haven’t crossed swords yet."
"I’m quite familiar with him." Marco Schmidt immediately replied, "He possesses at least two ancient treasures, I’m afraid they are of high-grade immortal artifact level. One of them is a Soul Summoning Banner, which contains a hidden realm within. It’s also an unparalleled treasure capable of concealing one’s presence and breaking through space."
"He also has a ’Heavy Golden Cymbals’, rumored to expand and contract greatly. It’s tiny as a sesame seed and as large as a mountain. When it flies, it can become invisible, and when it lands, it can take root. Once it covers someone, it refines them into blood water in an instant."
"And that’s just his magic treasures, he’s also cultivated a body of demon techniques, such as Heart Demon Summoning Technique, Extinction Technique, and so on, all are ancient divine abilities."
"This man has already become a force to be reckoned with. I’m afraid even Saints may not be his match. Otherwise, with so many killings he has done, Buddhism or humanity would have already eliminated him. The fact that they haven’t indicates that he has truly become a demon. Now he’s hiding in the Spiritual City, you should be wary of him attacking you from behind, clubbing you senseless or stabbing you!"
"I’m aware he’s in Spiritual City, I have ways to deal with him," Yusuf Zuck said with a cold sneer.
"Whew–" Marco Schmidt took a deep breath, "As long as you’re prepared, that’s good. I feared you were still in the dark, and that he might outwit you. That’s why I rushed here day and night."
"How do you know so much about him?" Yusuf Zuck asked curiously.
"In my sect, there is an elder who also succumbed to demonic cultivation and became his subordinated, serving under his command. Even though the elder became a demon, he still often keeps in touch with his daughter. Becoming a demon doesn’t mean going insane; it doesn’t mean losing spiritual wisdom or familial love."
"And where did you hear that people from Hidden Sword Immortal Mansion will emerge in ten days?" Yusuf Zuck asked curiously.
"Spiritual Information Pavilion," Marco Schmidt said with a smile. "I’ve made some friends here, and one of them is from the Spiritual Information Pavilion. He told me. The news hasn’t been released to the public yet, but it probably can’t be kept secret for much longer!"
"Excuse me, do you have any rooms available?" While Yusuf Zuck and Marco Schmidt were talking, a group of about thirty people arrived outside Skeward Tower, and the person who asked was a woman.
"Friends from afar, welcome!" Yusuf Zuck laughed heartily as he stood up.
Marco Schmidt raised an eyebrow, "Isn’t it joyful, haha!" He and Yusuf Zuck stepped out the door in one stride.
Outside Skeward Tower, Faye Webb in a white gown and cloak suddenly cried out, "Benedict Cooke, ahhhhh–" Her high-pitched scream echoed.
"Gorgeous lady!" Marco Schmidt laughed heartily, and Faye Webb threw herself into his arms.
The two were also old members of the Yusuf Zuck’s team, so the reunion of old friends was particularly joyful.
"Marco Schmidt, why didn’t you come to Snow Mountain Sect to find me when you were in the Origin Star System?" After separating, Faye Webb quickly pressed for an answer.
"I visited you twice, but each time you were either in seclusion or out. And I wasn’t sure if this Faye Webb was the same as that Faye Webb, so later I just kept a discreet eye on you, always wanting to find an opportunity to get in touch. But now it’s not too late, is it?"
"Alright, everyone come in, please," Yusuf Zuck invited the crowd from Snow Mountain Sect behind Faye Webb with polite hand gestures.
"Thank you, Mr. Campbell." Many from Snow Mountain Sect had seen Yusuf Zuck before, but he was not yet famous at that time. They just thought he had a good relationship with their Sect Master. Little did they expect that in such a short time, this man would become a notorious powerhouse in the Origin Star System, daring to challenge the six major clans on his own!
As for Faye Webb bringing them over, they did not have much to say against it. After all, Faye Webb was now the Sect Master of Snow Mountain Sect, and the future direction of the Sect was in her hands. Moreover, Snow Mountain Sect didn’t have any significant backing, so when their Sect Master declared that Bryson Campbell was certain to sweep away all before him, they resolutely followed their Sect Master to Spiritual City, to this Skeward Tower.
