Catherine and the Shanahans were ted to hear of Severin’s return. They had feared that he might


    not


    return from his journey to the secluded sect since the path of attainment often necessitated letting go of


    many human connections.


    Zachariah was thrilled to hear the news and rushed outside too. He had expected to see She, but the


    only woman standing beside Severin was someone he did not know.


    “Who might this be, Severin?” Judith asked as she approached Gilda curiously.


    Maurice looked at Severin with a knowing smile, unsurprised that his son’s outstanding qualities would


    attract yet another beautiful woman.


    Severin smiled and introduced them to everyone. “This is Gilda, daughter of the Skyblue Sect’s leader.”


    Then, as if to pause for emphasis, he finally said, “She’s also my girlfriend.”


    “Why’d you have to be so blunt about it?” Gilda was taken aback by how candid Severin was in


    announcing that they were dating. She felt a little embarrassed and shot him a re as a result.


    Severin then added, “You probably still haven’t gotten used to it being my girlfriend yet.”


    Everyone was amused by Severin’sment and burst intoughter.


    Megan then asked, “Did you return with your new girlfriend so she could meet your parents? Why


    didn’t.


    you bring Diane and the others with you?”


    “Diane and She are busy training.” Severin exined. “We’re preparing to enter a secret realm soon,


    and


    they’re so upied with improving their strength that they couldn’t spare the time to apany us.”


    Zachariah inquired excitedly. “How is She’s level of attainment now? I’m sure she made considerable


    progress, right?”


    “She is now a level seven warrior emperor, and further breakthroughs are on the horizon,” Severin


    said.


    Zachariah beamed with pride. “She’s already a level seven warrior emperor? That’s splendid! She’s


    be a strong woman now!”


    William and Felicia were equally eager to hear about Diane’s progress. “And what about Diane? How


    strong is she now?”


    Severin replied, “Diane’s attainment is slightly higher than She’s. She’s already a level eight warrior


    emperor. I’m pretty sure that she might even make a breakthrough and be a saint in another


    twenty


    days. That will ensure her safety when we enter the secret realm.”


    Severin sighed. “South Link City is a lovely ce, but there aren’t many good ces to go sightseeing


    here. My n is to rest for two or three days after we arrive at my home, and we canter venture to


    other nearby cities that have better scenery. There won’t be a lot of people from other cities who know


    about


    me, so you’ll be able to enjoy more scenic sights without having to worry about being swarmed by a


    crowd.”


    Gilda agreed. “Okay. You’re my guide, so I’ll go along with your n.”


    Severin steered the flying sword to descend near the city entrance and put it away before making their


    way to South County Mansion on foot.


    The guards posted at the door were incredibly excited when they saw Severin’s return. “The governor


    has


    returned!” They immediately dashed in to announce the news.


    “Did I hear that correctly? Severin is back?” Maurice, Judith, and the rest of them got a little emotional


    after hearing themotion. They all started to wonder if they misheard it.Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.
