The moment the momentum swept all over their surroundings, Ian made a breakthrough and became a first-class middle spiritual king.
Then came Ian's stage of consolidation. It took him a couple of hours to catch his breath and calm down. Unlike Ricky, he couldn't really consolidate his cultivation in a short period of time.
"Thank you everyone for this time. If it wasn't for your help, I would've probably lost my life, let alone make a breakthrough." Ian thanked Ricky and the others after his cultivation stabilized.
"If you guys need any help in the future, don't hesitate to let me know. No matter how difficult the matter is, I will give you my helping hand."
After saying this, Ian made a deep bow to Ricky and the others present in the area, but he was immediately held up by Ricky.
"Ian, we're disciples of the same college, and we're going to be great friends from now on, so there's really no need for you to say that," Ricky smiled.
"Alright, I understand!" Ian responded after hearing what Ricky said, as he nodded his head.
Friends were made through action and heart, not by beautiful words from the mouth.
"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing I'd like to ask for your help," Ian suddenly said in a serious tone.
"Ian, what is it? Did the Nether Army attack any other student from the Oriental College?" Terrence asked seriously as he saw the seriousness on Ian's face.
"I don't know about the other disciples from the Oriental College. I came here with Daisy. Ten days ago, we met the Nether Army and in order to avoid losing both of our lives, we parted ways and ran on different paths," Ian said with a worried look on his face.
"Now, I have no idea where Daisy headed and I was hoping we could find her."
"Daisy? Ian, are you talking about Daisy Zhang?" Ricky asked after hearing Ian's answer.
"Yes, that would be her," Ian nodded his head and said.
Immediately, Ricky's and Terrence's faces turned more serious. Before entering here, Jasper had instructed the both of them to keep Daisy safe no matter what.
"Ian, could you tell me which way Daisy ran to?" Ricky asked eagerly.
"The direction she took was opposite to mine. But if that's the only information we have, we still would have a hard time finding her!" Ian answered worriedly.
"The jade tablet would finally come in handy again," Ricky said with calmness in his eyes. He turned the palm of his hand once as the jade tablet appeared on his palm. It was a proof of identity for the core members of the Zhang Clan.
"Is that the unique jade tablet possessed solely by the Zhang Clan?" Seeing the jade tablet, Terrence and Ian couldn't believe their eyes.
"Why did Jasper give you the jade tablet instead of giving it to me?" Terrence said in a mocking voice. Of course, he was merely joking and was pretending to be unhappy.
"This jade tablet was given to me by neither Jasper nor Daisy," Ricky smiled after hearing what Terrence said.
"Really? Who gave it to you then? You couldn't have stolen it from someone, could you?" Terrence and Ian asked curiously after hearing what Ricky just said.
"I'm not telling you anything! It is a secret and I will not let the cat out of the bag!" Ricky smiled. He didn't want to tell anyone about Zenith and Cheryl just yet.
"So now you decide to act all mysterious and unfathomable! Ha-ha!" Terrence replied with a smile.
"Now that we have the unique jade tablet of the Zhang Clan to help us, we should be able to sense the existence of Daisy and find her location within a certain range. Let's stop wasting time and get to it right away," Ian said. "After all, the later we set off, the more dangerous it could be for her."
Soon enough, they stopped wasting their time and sped off towards the direction Ian had told them about.
