Chapter 2017: Holy Sword Clan(5)

"Hey."

The Holy Sword Maiden suddenly called out, snapping Li Bowen out of his daze.

When he turned to look at her, she held a sword-shaped badge in front of her, seemingly offering it to him.

This badge looked similar to the one in Yuan’s possession, but it was golden in color and had more refined details.

Li Bowen’s eyes widened at the sight of this badge, but before he could say anything, the Holy Sword Maiden spoke, "The mortal left before I could give this to him. If he returns, give it to him for me. I promised to verify his qualifications, after all."

The sword badge was akin to a referral, but it came from none other than the Holy Sword Maiden, which guaranteed Yuan’s admission to the Holy Sword Temple.

"Yes..." Li Bowen accepted the badge with stiff movements. Even someone of his stature had never touched this object before.

"Wait. Did you say he’d left?" Li Bowen suddenly asked.

"Yes, he left after destroying the wall. He probably thought he’d get in trouble or something. I don’t know why, but I have a feeling that he’s afraid of me."

"I see..." Li Bowen remarked in a flat voice. He couldn’t tell her that it was most likely due to what he told Yuan a month ago.

"Anyway, I’ll be leaving now. If you ever find more about that mortal, let me know. We need him in the Holy Sword Clan," said the Holy Sword Maiden.

"But he’s already with the Celestial Overlords," Li Bowen reminded her.

"So what? As far as I am aware, the Celestial Overlords don’t restrict their members to a single faction. And since there are no grievances between our faction, there’s no reason he cannot join us as well."

Most factions out there allow their members to join multiple factions to keep their numbers up, so it wasn’t uncommon for someone to belong to multiple factions.

Li Bowen could only silently nod his head. He recalled Yuan being at the lowest rank for the Celestial Overlords, so there was a good chance they could recruit him into the Holy Sword Clan.

Some time later, the Holy Sword Maiden left the Holy Sword Clan. The Holy Sword King and the others were puzzled by her abrupt departure, but they still left with her.

"Fuck, what am I supposed to do with this badge? If he doesn’t return..." Li Bowen muttered as he stared at the golden badge resting on his palm.

However, he suddenly sensed a presence appear behind him like a ghost.

When he turned around and saw Yuan standing behind him, Li Bowen nearly had a heart attack.

"Son of a bi—!"

"Sorry for startling you."

"You! I thought you had left!"

"No, I only hid my presence since I didn’t want to deal with the Holy Sword Maiden after what happened. I’m glad she left so quickly," said Yuan.

Li Bowen rubbed his eyes and released a stressful sigh.

"I told you to stay away from them, but you went ahead and caused such a scene."
