“Jessica thinks you’re too slow, so she won’t wait for you,” Caspian said lightly.
Lucy was stunned for a moment, then became furious.
“I don’t believe it! Idiot Casper, you must’ve deceived her and hid her somewhere!”
Caspian still said the same, “You’re too slow, and she can’t wait for you.
So she’ll go first.”
“That’s impossible! Lady Jessica will never leave me!”
Lucy’s face flushed instantly, and she shouted, “I get it now! You fooled her away! What’s your intention!”
“I don’t have any intention, and I just want to see if you can get out of this Floating Growth Formation.
However, you’re rather a disappointment.” Caspian shook his head.
“What? Formation?” Lucy blinked, and the anger in her eyes quickly condensed.
“Casper, I didn’t expect you to be such a person! Why did you use the formation to deal with me?! Do you have any ill intentions against me?!”
“You’re overthinking,” Caspian shook his head, “The Floating Growth Formation can only trap cultivators below the first-stage Pulse Control Realm.
Even though your realm is above that, your grasp of strength is still at the level of a warrior.”
“What’s the use of you telling me this?” Lucy’s puffed face looked like a bun at the moment, and she added, “Just let me out now!”
Caspian directly refused, “You can only rely on yourself to get out.”
“Why?” Lucy was dumbfounded.
She felt that Caspian was strange today.
Lucy’s impression of Caspian was always polite and amiable when facing her.
Even if she always called the other party an idiot, he would just smile and ignore her.
However, Caspian seemed stubborn today, as if he was determined to go against her.
Caspian looked at Lucy and said seriously, “Because you can’t protect Jessica.”
Caspian knew that if he told Lucy that she should cultivate harder for her good as Jessica did, Lucy would just laugh and brush the matter away.
After all, with Lucy’s childish personality, she would not regard the realms and strength as a serious matter.
In her opinion, it was enough as long as she could accompany Jessica.
However, if Caspian told her that being stronger would help Jessica, Lucy would treat the matter seriously.
Sure enough, after Caspian finished saying that, Lucy’s face changed slightly, and she asked, “What do you mean?”
“It’s very simple,” Caspian pointed to his feet, “You saw it yourself that you can’t keep up with Jessica’s pace even in such a simple formation.
Are you hoping that Jessica will stop to save you if you encounter danger on the road to immortality in the future? I admit that with your relationship with her, Jessica will save you even if she has to give up everything.
However, rescuing you might lead to Jessica’s death.
So let me ask you, do you want Jessica to take risks to protect you, or do you want to become stronger and follow Jessica’s side without dragging her back!”
Caspian‘s words stunned Lucy.
In her little head, such a thought never occurred before.
Instead, Caspian’s words were a thunderbolt, smashed into her head at once.
“If I don’t practice hard, I’ll put Lady Jessica in danger…” She muttered to herself, appearing as if she vaguely understood.
“Lucy, I learned from Jessica’s letter earlier that you were promoted to the Pulse Condensation Realm, and I was happy for you,” then, Caspian shook his head, “But I didn’t expect that after you ascended, you never thought for Jessica.
Until now, you can’t even get out of a basic magic formation, and I’m very… Disappointed with you…”
