Wei City Mage Guild.
Wang Ye came to Zhou Ke's side, and after telling Zhou Ke about his impending departure, Zhou Ke looked at Wang Ye with some confusion: "Why do you want to leave now? With your level in sorcery, you can directly advance to a Fifth-Rank Sorcerer."
Wang Ye smiled wryly: "You know, I am the saint son of the Ice Sect, and my realm has now broken through to a Fourth Grade Cultivator."
Even if Wang Ye didn't say more, Zhou Ke could already understand the reason behind it.
After all, the matter between the Ice Sect and Cold Sect has become widely known, almost everyone on the Spirit Star is aware of it.
And once the saint son of the Ice Sect breaks through to a Fourth Grade Cultivator, the Ice Sect can enter a period of rapid advancement.
At that time, the Cold Sect will likely have no way to deal with the Ice Sect.
So now that Wang Ye's breakthrough to a Fourth Grade Cultivator has spread, both Wang Ye himself and the Ice Sect will face unprecedented danger.
"Alright then."
Zhou Ke sighed, considering the actions of the Cold Sect over the years, although they always try to clean up in advance before doing anything, Zhou Ke is not foolish.
He had long seen through those little schemes of the Cold Sect.
At this moment, thinking of Wang Ye's formidable prowess in the sorcery path, for reasons related to the Cold Sect, even the sorcery review must be delayed, and a single misstep could lead to his downfall.
"Be cautious on your return this time. If you need assistance, our Wei City Mage Guild has its means, just let us know, and we'll help you."
"Especially since you have passed the Wei City Mage Guild assessment, from today, you are one of us, and if you face any problems, we Wei City Mage Guild will surely help you."
"Okay, I understand."
Wang Ye smiled at Zhou Ke, and after a brief conversation, he left directly.
As for Zhou Ke's offer to help if there's any trouble, Wang Ye casually dismissed it.
To Wang Ye, Zhou Ke's words were merely polite formalities.
After all, he and Zhou Ke only met yesterday.
Before this, he hadn't even heard of Zhou Ke's name.
And during their acquaintance, their only connection was discussing Zhou Xuan Ying's matters.
Wang Ye didn't feel that such limited acquaintance could lead Zhou Ke to truly do something for him.
Especially since it was not merely his personal issue, but involved the conflict between two sects.
On the pavilion.
Zhou Ke watched Wang Ye's departing figure, now Wang Ye had already gathered with Shi Qian and two First Grade Officials.
Tian Hailin approached Zhou Ke and softly said, "Master, Wang Ye doesn't seem to fully trust us. He doesn't even believe we will help him."
"That's quite normal."
Zhou Ke had already noticed this, but there was no disappointment on his face, he smiled at Tian Hailin and asked, "Do you think it's necessary for us to use our own strength to win him over?"
Tian Hailin didn't immediately answer, wrinkling his brow, seemingly contemplating Zhou Ke's words.
After a while, Tian Hailin spoke: "Although I've only interacted with Wang Ye for less than twenty-four hours, from some information I've pieced together about him."
"And in these few days of interaction with Wang Ye, I found him to be a person worthy of trust."
"He has a great talent in sorcery, when he's focused on studies, I don't know about other things, but from his understanding of Old Zhou Zhou Xuan Ying, it's evident he's a person dedicated to research."
"Therefore..."
Tian Hailin paused, seriously locking eyes with Zhou Ke, and spoke almost word by word: "I feel we need to save Wang Ye, he's worth it."
At this point, Tian Hailin seemed worried his words might influence Zhou Ke's decision, so he added: "Of course, these are just my personal thoughts, master can have your own opinion."
"You..."
Seeing Tian Hailin had become his apprentice yet remained so cautious in conversation, Zhou Ke helplessly rubbed Tian Hailin's head, speaking with a tone of affection:
"Sometimes, you don't need to be so careful, just speak your mind. If my decision can be swayed by a few words, I wouldn't be fit to be your master."
"However..."
Zhou Ke's mouth curved into a smile: "I think you're quite right, Wang Ye is worth our efforts."
...
Under Shi Qian and the First Grade Official's leadership, Wang Ye headed swiftly towards the Ice Sect.
They were traveling on a spaceship.
On the surface, it looked like an ordinary wooden boat, but it actually floated in the air, flying, and its speed was far from slow.
Two First Grade Officials stood at the front and back of the wooden boat.
The sea of consciousness continuously spread around.
If they encountered any problem, these two First Grade Officials would act immediately.
Shi Qian sat beside Wang Ye, chatting casually like an idle person, but in reality, Shi Qian's strength was the greatest among the four aboard the wooden boat.
"Still too weak."
Being protected by three First Grade cultivators, Wang Ye felt he might not be able to exert much influence in the upcoming battle. He sighed, enveloped in a deep sense of powerlessness.
Becoming just a pretty face, a key to unsealing the relic of the Ice Sect, was not what Wang Ye aspired to do.
What Wang Ye wanted was to play a pivotal role in the battle, to be the core and hero of the team.
Instead of being cocooned in protection by everyone.
"Now, when you're weak, we protect you. But when you're strong, it'll be your turn to protect us." Shi Qian said earnestly beside Wang Ye.
"Because you are the hope of our future."
