"Ha-ha. Thank you so much, Andrea," Clark said excitedly.
"By the way, Andrea, there is one more thing." His eyes beamed with slyness and lust.
Andrea laughed in response. "I know what you mean. Don't worry, you can trust me with the gift," he promised with a wink and a wicked smile. He then clapped his hands, and three figures emerged from behind the palace.
All three of them were young women, each of which was extremely beautiful, scantily clad and enchanting.
"Ha-ha! You know me well, Andrea. Just come to my palace after ten days to take the pills." Clark's eyes turned red and watery as he carefully examined each of the women's sultry curves. He already felt like the luckiest man on earth.
He took the three girls very eagerly out of the palace and hurried back to his own place.
"I can't believe that this old man is such an old goat. I wonder if the trade between him and Andrea has anything to do with the Sense of Realm," Ricky murmured. "Is it true that this Star Continent really has the Sense of Realm?"
"I don't think there are any other types of interests that can convince Clark and Andrea and make both of them willing enough to make a deal with each other. That said, it's very likely that all this conspiracy is about the Sense of Realm," Tina said. "If it was merely for women, Clark definitely would not have agreed to create so many pills for the Ling Clan."
"Father, ·when shall we kill this old guy? Is it after we finally rule the Star Continent?" Colin asked in a low and frigid voice as he came out from behind the palace.
"We do it after we get what we want. Remember Colin, we have to let him have his way as much as we could. We should wait at least before we completely destroy the Great Star Dynasty and the Scarlet King Ape tribe. Only then can we finally kill that bastard," Andrea replied and stared indifferently at the horizon.
"Well, this old dog's strength is not a disappointment. We need his strength so we can deal with that brat."
"I understand, Father. However, recently, several of the women in our clan have fallen into the clutches of that old man. Some of the members have even· started raising their concerns about it. I'm afraid the whole clan might fall apart if this continues," Colin disclosed with a worried look on his face.
"Well then, tell the women in our clan that from now on, if they· have nothing important to do, then they shouldn't step out of their rooms. There are tons of other women in other clans," Andrea· instructed. His tone left a spiky chill in the atmosphere.
"Yes, Father!" Colin replied and nodded curtly.
"Tina, it seems a lot like they are discussing about the Sense of Realm. Something tells me, that the Sense of Realm was also the motivating factor behind the Ling Clan's actions against both the Great Star Dynasty and the Scarlet King Ape tribe," Ricky said and rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
"But, how can they ·be so sure that ·the Sense of Realm exists on the Star Continent?"
Tina queried with a frown. "Maybe Clark has his own ways of gathering information."
"So then, does that mean I can't kill Clark yet because he might be of use to us in the future?" Ricky scratched his head.
"If the Great Star Dynasty and the Scarlet King Ape tribe are clueless about the whereabouts of the Sense of Realm, then yes, you really can't kill him until we at least find the treasure," Tina affirmed.
"If that's the case, then I have to make things clear with Dylan. Otherwise, things might not go according to plan and it will be harder for us to deal with the conflict in the future," Ricky told Tina.
He left the Ling Clan and returned to ·the palace of the Great Star Dynasty.
As soon as he returned, Ricky immediately told Dylan and his men everything he knew.
"As it turns out, the old man from the Ling Clan is the one who had hurt me. No wonder Andrea knew so much about my condition." Dylan was hit with an unnerving realization. "From what you have learned, the Ling Clan will be back once again and attack us in ten days."
"Damn it! The pills they will be taking this time could double their power. This could really get us into big trouble," William cursed under his breath.
