One should know that Cloudnine Sect was a titan that none of Riverton could afford the challenge— even Sage Lake Sect was no more than an ant to them.

They had plenty of elites who had reached the pinnacle of Birthright rank, and some were even said to be Ascension rank individuals. Rumor even has it that their chief reached godhood three years ago!

The top ten of Skyrank were all affiliated among the South Sea Four, and they could not care less about Riverton.

And yet, Frank was so pompous that he did not worry about them?

At that moment, Burt's curiosity toward Frank beat his fear of the man.

What on earth happened at the Battle of the South Sea three years ago? Why would this apprentice of Mystic Sky Sect end up here in little Riverton?

Still, he did not pry since he was still at Frank's mercy.

Suddenly inspired despite the threat of death, Burt kowtowed, pressing his face into the blood all over the floor as he said, "Mr. Lawrence, you heard what Quinn Ocean said before—I'm never escaping Sage Lake Sect. This is too serious, and they will blame it on me even if you let me live. And since Quinn is so eager to pass such an unfair judgment on me, I'd rather rid myself of them and swear fealty to Mystic Sky Sect!"

He slammed his forehead heavily on the floor before Frank's feet once more, knowing that his head

would roll if Frank did not agree to his request.

But like he said, if the Sage Lake Sect investigated the issue and the Salazars talked, he would

definitely be implicated.

He would definitely be made scapegoat, be it with the death of a Sage Lake Sect elder or the daughter

of an elder.

That was why he decided to just burn bridges and join Frank instead. If anything, he was sick of the

Sage Lake Sect always treating him around like their lapdog anyway.

As he knelt, holding his breath from being too loud, he felt like he must have stayed in that position for

a year, even though it was barely a minute.

"Heh. In that case, I can spare your life."

Burt felt immense relief when he heard the cool voice speak and promptly kowtowed again. "Thank

you, Mr. Lawrence... I mean, comrade!"

"Hold it." Frank stopped him right then, saying coolly, "I will restore Mystic Sky Sect to its former glory

one day, but it's no place for just anyone. While having the heart to join us means you're qualified, to be

allowed in depends entirely on your performance. Understand?"

Burt would never say no in the face of Frank's sharp glare, as he nodded repeatedly even as he knelt.

"Thank you... Mr. Lawrence! I'll do my best to earn my place in Mystic Sky Sect!"

"Good."

Frank was a little satisfied to see that Burt was being that tactful.

Pausing, he then whipped out a business card. "Sort out this mess however you see fit— consider it a test. Contact me with this number if you're having issues."

"Yes, Mr. Lawrence!" Burt received the card reverently with both hands.

Frank started to leave but suddenly stopped at the doorway, glancing at Burt sideways as he asked coolly, "And I'm sure you know the price of betrayal?"

"Yes, yes, of course," Burt replied, even as he wiped the blood and sweat lining his brow.

"When you're done, drop by Skywater Bay when you're free—I'll teach you some Mystic Sky Sect martial arts," Frank added and left.

On the other hand, the last part of what Frank said left Burt freezing.

He had been acting as the Sage Lake Sect's lapdog for years, but he never had a whiff of any of their martial arts.

Naturally, it was their strategy.
