It turned out that this monk was quite famous.
Everyone in the central region, the outer region, and the inner region knew his name.
Out of the ten geniuses in the central region, Jedidiah was number two. To most creatures, the idea of crossing his path was terrifying.
And he wasn't just talented. He also had a powerful man backing him. His master was a reclusive demi-spiritual potentate.
A long time ago, Jedidiah had fought against a genius from a Sage Level force and killed him. Then, masters from that force had been hunting him. There were even some Sage Level masters in that group.
Jedidiah's master was forced to take action to protect his disciple. He was an old monk dressed in ragged clothes. He didn't look very impressive on the surface.
But he managed to destroy the force in half a day.
Back at that time, it happened so fast, and the Misty South Palace couldn't interfere and stop him in time.
They could have sent powerful warriors to protect the force, but it was too late. The force had been destroyed. There was no point in offending a demi-spiritual potentate over an extinct force.
From that moment on, no one dared to challenge Jedidiah again.
Jedidiah was very promising. Otherwise, he wouldn't be an ace genius or the second ranked talent in the central region.
He looked like he didn't care about anything, but he didn't do anything immoral because of his master's strength.
Taking a sip of wine and a bite of meat, Jedidiah walked up to Ricky and smiled. Then, he said, "Hey, do you want a sip of my wine?"
If he didn't have wine and meat, Jedidiah couldn't survive. He was a monk who didn't follow the normal rituals.
"Sure!" Ricky nodded.
He knew that the offering was Jedidiah's way of making friends. If he were to refuse, it would be like he rejected him.
After Ricky took a sip of the wine, Jedidiah handed the wine to Mordechai and the others.
Jedidiah chose to make friends with those he liked, not those who were powerful.
"Thank you for saving our lives!" Ricky and the others said again.
Now, they knew why Chandler had left so hastily. Jedidiah had been hiding in the dark, and Chandler knew that he wouldn't be unable to kill Ricky and his companions with Jedidiah around.
"Like I said, you are a person worth saving. Besides, now that you drank my wine, you are my friends. I couldn't leave my friends to die," Jedidiah said with a smile.
"Hey, beauties, I wonder if you want to thank me. I'd like one of you to have a baby with me. Just imagine how rewarding that will be," Jedidiah added as he looked Ella and Claire up and down.
Everyone else fell speechless.
In that moment, the realization struck them that the monk did not just eat meat and drink wine. He also slept with women.
"Ha-ha! You should have seen the looks on your faces! I'm just kidding. I might be a playboy, but I would never treat my friend or his women that way!" Jedidiah laughed when he saw the horrified expressions on their faces.
But Ricky and the others didn't join him in his laughter. They exchanged concerned looks, unsure of what to say or do. Jedidiah was very charming and he owned every situation he was in.
"Did you come here with Chandler?" Ricky asked, changing the topic.
"Well, you could say so, but we are definitely not on the same side. I only came when I sensed your fighting auras," Jedidiah replied in a serious tone.
