The Story Never Ends -
Chapter 44 - Hendrix Returns
A couple of hours later, Davion came out of the Secret Arts Hall, full of smiles.
"Haha, I have already recorded these secret arts. The only thing I lack now is the experience points. After taking those pills from the auction hall, I have already reached level 18."
"But these days, I am hearing some strange news. If our sect ranks last in this Conference, then we have to give our sect's ground to the sect that ranks first. From Isla, the other day, I heard that the one I saw was an elder from the Blood Saber Sect. He had come to ask for the sect's ground but got flatly rejected by our Sect Master."
"It looks like our sect is in great trouble. Not only that, we have created enmity with the strongest sect in this region. I don't think they have given up so easily. They might be confident in getting the first place in this Conference and trying to get our sect's ground in this way. But if we do not rank last then we can save our sect from the current trouble."
"There is one thing that doesn't feel right about it. What is the Blood Saber Sect looking for? They even came and threatened us blatantly."
"Not only that, our sect only has Isla who can participate in the Conference. Hendrix has been missing the whole week."
When he was about to reach his cave, he saw a black-robed person with a hood near his cave.
He used his Mind-Eye and found who he was.
"Hendrix?" Davion exclaimed.
"Davion!" Hendrix got shocked and took a few steps back.
"As I thought, he is really alive," Hendrix muttered.
He forced a smile and asked, "Did you not go to the city? I heard that you wanted to go there and have some fresh air."
"Yes, I've already gone there and enjoyed it a bit. But what about you? You were missing for a whole week." Davion acted innocently.
"Eh!, I injured my junior sister and acted rashly. So, I felt very bad and wanted to take some break from the sect. That's why I was staying in the city for a whole week. Now that I feel good, I want to apologize to Isla and the Sect Master." Hendrix lied with a straight face.
Davion looked at him for a while and thought, "He is really shameless."
"Junior Brother, it looks like you are tired. So, I don't want to disturb you any longer. I will take my leave." Hendrix was about to run away when Davion suddenly called him out.
"Senior Brother, I think you have lost something on your way. I found it and kept it for you."
He took out the last space ring that he had obtained from the bodies of the Silent Killers. Before Hendrix could react, he threw the ring towards him.
Hendrix didn't know what it was and immediately caught it. But when he looked at it, his eyes nearly popped out.
Before he could say anything, he heard Davion say, "Senior brother, you should take care of your items and not ideal around the city. The Conference is coming near and you need to participate. So, you have to work hard."
Davion smiled and returned to his cave as a good junior brother.
Hendrix watched him leave and wiped the sweat on his forehead. He got really scared this time. "How could he get the ring? Was he the one who killed those brothers? But how could it be? If he knew I was the one behind it, then why didn't he do anything about it?"
Hendrix stood there for a long time and finally left with the ring in his hands. His mind was in a mess.

Inside the cave,
"My main reason for coming to this sect was to get some spiritual arts. I thought it would be really difficult. But who could have thought that this task would be completed so easily? I was actually thinking about leaving this sect, and going towards the inner region."
"There are also a lot of troubles surrounding this sect. Especially the Blood Saber Sect. They look really strong and dangerous. So, I didn't want to get into this mess. I wanted to escape."
"But, seeing the sect master's attitude and care towards me, I do not want to escape like that." Davion sighed.
"It looks like there is only one way, I can repay the favor of the sect master. I will join the Conference and help them get a higher ranking. Then I will leave towards the inner region."
Davion made up his mind.
This is the reason why he didn't want to do anything to Hendrix. After he leaves the sect, then the sect will only have Isla as a Qi refining disciple. As her talent is poor, the sect will again fall below.. With Hendrix, the sect should be able to continue for a long time.
