234 I'll Decide On My Own

Hearing William's familiar voice, Jenny finally understood what was going on. Her brown, almond shaped eyes glittered in happiness for a moment, but her expression turned to indifference when she blinked.

Jenny placed her hands on her hips and shouted at William, "Where have you been? Do you know what happened to the village while you were gone? And your mother is worried sick about you!"

She had completely forgotten about William's show of strength during the battle and had autonomously started talking to him like he was still the non-Cultivator kid that could barely defeat a Wind Wolf.

William looked down in shame and nodded, "I know, but I had no choice. I couldn't come back."

Ever since he was chased by the Rhio Ancient Family Cultivators, William had pretty much been forced down a specific path. He couldn't return home from the Five Elements Sect until he became an Inner Core Disciple, and then he was taken as a student by Riyald.
