“Yes, yes,” said Ron quickly. He was happy after he had confirmed that it was the Old Ancestor. He did not care whether the scenery was nice or not. He said excitedly, “Old Ancestor, have you visited my dream again?”
Romo nodded and said, “That’s right, this is the dream I gave you.”
Ron suddenly recalled the wonderful feelings he had just sensed. He asked, “Old Ancestor, when I was meditating just now, I suddenly sensed a strange feeling. I don’t know what it was exactly, but I felt that it was very important to me. Has Old Ancestor done something for me?”
Romo laughed and said, “That’s right. I’ve helped you improve your luck and also helped you increase your alchemy talent. In the future, you can try to make pills yourself. If you can make some powerful Magic Pills, it will be very beneficial to the development of our family clan.”
“Really? Thank you for your love, Old Ancestor. I definitely won’t let you down.” After hearing Romo’s words, Ron was very happy and grateful. He had not expected the methods of the Old Ancestor to be so powerful. He could actually increase his luck and even give him an alchemy talent. As far as he knew, even a Great Archmage did not have such a magical ability.
Romo nodded. He was very satisfied with Ron’s reaction and said, “By the way, the main reason I entered the dream this time was because I saw that your cultivation base had advanced very quickly recently. I was afraid that your foundation would not be stable, so I came over to help you dispel your doubts. If there is anything you don’t understand about cultivation, you can ask me. I’ll tell you everything I know.”
“Thank you, Old Ancestor.” Ron said gratefully, “There are really many things I don’t understand right now, so I would like to ask you about them, Old Ancestor.”
Then, Ron told him about many of the questions he had encountered during his cultivation. These questions, in Ron’s opinion, were very difficult. However, Romo was already a Great Archmage at his peak when he was alive, and his current strength far surpassed Ron’s. Therefore, he was able to easily answer the questions he had encountered. He also explained them in layman’s terms, so that Ron would understand them in a short while and then master them immediately. Even just by answering these questions, Romo could see that Ron’s strength had actually shown signs of breaking through. He was indeed a genius; he was about to break through. He was indeed powerful.
Romo was very pleased. Then, he told Ron many more things about cultivation, which benefited him greatly. All the questions Ron had accumulated previously were also answered.
Time passed quickly. After Romo had completed his mission, he left. Ron, who was meditating, opened his eyes. He immediately discovered that he had returned to his room. However, scenes from the dream still appeared in his mind. He remembered the teachings of his Old Ancestor very clearly. He had also cleared the doubts he had during his cultivation.
At this moment, he felt a burst of understanding, and then his aura increased again. Boom! A powerful aura radiated outward, and Ron was pleasantly surprised to find that he had advanced from level-5 Great Mage to level-6 Great Mage.
Ron was very happy. After he had finished, he got off the bed and walked towards Norton’s room. In the dream, his Old Ancestor had told him some things, and he had to tell the family head about them.
On the other side, after Karuman had entered Winterfrost, he saw the dilapidated state of Winterfrost and was dismayed. Although he had already seen from outside the city that Winterfrost was a very small city and the environment was not good, after coming in, he realized what it meant to be dilapidated. That’s right, in the eyes of Karuman, who was used to large cities, Winterfrost was simply a small village. How could his master, who was so powerful, have built his family clan in such a dilapidated small city? Karuman could not figure it out but since his master had asked him to come here, he could do nothing. After all, his life was in the other party’s hands.
He walked along the streets. Although this place was very dilapidated, there were many people. It had only been daybreak, but the streets were already filled with people.
“Hey, have you heard? The head of the Grimm family and the young master of the Grimm family clan were killed last night.”
“What? Where did you hear that from? How could the head of the Grimm family be dead? Their family is the number one family clan in Winterfrost. How could the head of the family be dead?”
“I’m telling the truth. Our neighbor delivers vegetables to the Grimm family. When he went to the Grimm family’s house to deliver the vegetables today, he happened to see their family head and their young master dead in the ancestral hall. They had already been frozen into popsicles. Even their ancestral tablet had been broken by someone. The ashes of their family’s Old Ancestor were also scattered all over the floor. This is simply heartbreaking.”
“Damn, you sound as if what you’re saying is true.”
“Of course what I said is true. Right now, their old patriarch has already come out of seclusion. After seeing the situation in the ancestral hall, he almost went berserk on the spot. Now, the Grimm family is in a mess. If you don’t believe me, you can go and take a look outside the Grimm family home. You can hear the crying from outside.”
At this moment, another person had come. He joined the discussion and said, “Are you talking about the Grimm family? I just came over from there. I heard crying in their house. It seems that someone has really died.”
“Damn, it’s really true!” This had also confirmed what the person earlier had said. Immediately, the few of them talked even more energetically.
“Hehe, it is true that there are really all sorts of characters in a small place. In such a small city like Winterfrost, not only is there a powerful master living in seclusion here, there is even someone who has killed the family head and even scattered the ashes of the Old Ancestor. This is simply heartbreaking. Such an incident is rare even in the large cities he had stayed in previously.”
Romo had only told him about Saruman previously, and had not told him about the relationship between Saruman and the Grimm family. Therefore, Karuman had not connected the murder of the Grimm family head with Romo. Otherwise, he would definitely be glad that he had knelt down fast enough, or his outcome would probably be the same as that of the Grimm family head.
A short while later, Karuman had arrived outside the door of the Nicholas family clan. He frowned at the ordinary mansion in front of him, his heart full of doubts.
Is this the family clan of Master? Why is the family clan of Master living in such a dilapidated condition? Even if he is living in seclusion, at least he should not be suffering. Are there two Nicholas family clans in this city?
He was thinking suspiciously when someone walked over. He immediately went up and asked, “Hello, I would like to ask how many Nicholas family clans are there in this city?”
