Chapter 1268: Chapter 698: Burning Heaven Chapter 1268: Chapter 698: Burning Heaven Individuals like Logan are indeed rare; he stood amid the crowd like a fresh stream, untouched by dust.
Logan observed the reactions of the people around him, feeling somewhat perplexed.
Did these fellows really need to be so exaggerated?
It seemed like he hadn't done anything, merely standing there quietly, yet somehow he had become the focal point of everyone's attention.
The looks in people's eyes were filled with reverence and curiosity, as if he were some priceless Treasure, drawing them irresistibly closer, yet they dared not touch him lightly.
Logan slightly furrowed his brow; he disliked this feeling of being watched by everyone, which made him uncomfortable.
He shook his head slightly, trying to shake off this inexplicable mood, then turned to leave.
However, at the moment he turned around, an unexpected voice sounded beside his ear.
“Logan, you've finally arrived,” the voice carried a sense of urgency and anticipation, it was Sheron Perri.
Logan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Sheron Perri sitting quietly in a chair, his eyes fixed intently on him, as if he were some Treasure about to vanish. The frustration was overwhelming in Sheron Perri's heart, as he had been waiting for Logan for far too long, every minute and second feeling like torture. Now, finally seeing Logan, how could he not be eager?
“Sheron Perri, what are you doing here?” Logan asked in surprise.
“I've been waiting for you, when will you finally return? I've been quite impatient,” Sheron Perri's words revealed a hint of dissatisfaction, but more than that, there was concern and anticipation for Logan.
At that moment, Elder Talon Skyler also came over. He saw Logan sitting beside Sheron Perri, who still seemed anxious as if searching for something. Elder Talon Skyler frowned and instinctively stepped forward.
“Aren't you two planning to go back and rest? We are to leave for the Spirit World tomorrow. The journey will be fraught with danger; why not cooperate?” Elder Talon Skyler's words revealed sincerity but also a resolute authority that couldn't be ignored.
Upon hearing Elder Talon Skyler's proposition, Sheron Perri sized him up and then scoffed contemptuously, “Old man, the last time you sought our cooperation was with ill-intent. Did you think we'd be fooled by you again? Stop joking around there, in my opinion, you're simply delusional!”
Elder Talon Skyler clenched his teeth in anger upon hearing this, surprised at how Sheron Perri dared to insult him; he wasn't someone easily trifled with. However, as he was about to erupt, Logan gently tugged at his sleeve.
“Elder Talon Skyler, don't be agitated. Sheron Perri is just joking, we don't need to take it seriously,” Logan's words held a calming effect, causing the flames of the Elder's anger to gradually subside.
Elder Talon Skyler took a deep breath and then addressed Sheron Perri, “Sheron Perri, I hope you understand, our cooperation stems from a mutual purpose. I'm not begging you, I'm offering you an opportunity. If you don't wish to cooperate, so be it. But, I expect you to refrain from disrespectful remarks, otherwise don't blame me for being impolite.”
Sheron Perri, hearing this, just pursed his lips and said nothing more. He knew that Elder Talon Skyler's power was unfathomable and not someone he could provoke lightly. Moreover, their purpose for this journey indeed required cooperation to succeed. Thus, he chose silence, not speaking further.
Logan, witnessing the atmosphere between the two easing, let out a sigh of relief inwardly. He knew that their cooperation wouldn't be easy; it required trust and understanding from both sides. But as long as they could set aside their prejudices and work together, they would surely overcome all difficulties and achieve their goal.
Therefore, Logan spoke up, “Let's not argue over these trivial matters. Elder Talon Skyler is right, our journey ahead is fraught with danger, and only by cooperating can we reach our destination more safely. What do you think, Sheron Perri?”
Upon hearing this, Sheron Perri looked at Logan, then nodded, “Alright, since you say so, I agree to cooperate. But, I hope we can trust each other, with no secrets or deceit.”
Logan responded with a slight smile, “Don't worry, Sheron Perri. Our cooperation is based on trust and understanding. As long as we are honest with each other, we will definitely overcome all hurdles.”
Thus, the three reached a consensus and decided to cooperate on their journey to the Spirit World. They knew the path was filled with unknowns and dangers, but with unity, they would surely overcome any difficulty and achieve their purpose.
Finally, as dusk fell, they prepared all their essentials, ready to set out. They stood at the gate of the city, looking ahead at the unknown path with a mix of excitement and anxiety. Yet, they knew that only by bravely taking this step could they face the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead.
And so, they embarked on their journey to the Spirit World, starting the most thrilling chapter of their lives. In the days to come, they would face countless difficulties and challenges, but as long as they remained united, they would surely conquer all obstacles and achieve their purpose. And this experience would become the most precious treasure of their lives.
“Coming to you for cooperation is a sign of my regard for you; don't think too highly of yourself,” Elder Talon Skyler's voice was filled with undeniable authority, his gaze fixed on Sheron Perri, eyes gleaming, “You alone stand no chance of entering the Spirit World and obtaining the Bodhi Tree on your own, don't be delusional. The Spirit World is extremely perilous, without our help, you're merely moths darting into the flame.”
