After helping Nikola back to his feet, the Darknight Sovereign furrowed his brows and asked in genuine confusion:
"What… exactly happened?"
Nikola's expression turned visibly awkward. He coughed twice and stammered, "Grand mentor… just now, Brother Velen asked me if I'd like to have my grand mentor personally guide my cultivation. I said yes, and… then you were brought down."
Darknight Sovereign: ???
What the hell did you just say?
You told him you wanted my personal guidance, and your Brother Velen just went and dragged me out of the upper plane universe!?
The moment he understood the situation, the Darknight Sovereign's mentality utterly collapsed.
He wanted to scream at the oblivious young man before him:
You have no idea what I just went through so you could receive a little personal coaching!
I almost thought I was going to be refined into potion ingredients!
Not far away, Steven watched with some confusion as Jerry began constructing a makeshift shelter.
