Chapter 17 Name the Spear Yourself

From the way Jennifer put it, this spear… had been meant for him?

Sure enough, Jennifer planted the spear against the floor and said with a faint smile, “This Saint Realm spear was forged from the spine of the Silverwyrm, a demonic beast at the peak of the Saint Realm. It doesn’t have a name yet, so why don’t we let Seamus be the one to name it?”

As Jennifer’s words fell, the entire hall went silent for a moment, and then everyone was shocked to the absolute core.

“What? Did I hear that right? That’s a Saint Realm spear?”

“And Jennifer actually wants to give this Saint Realm spear to Seamus?”

“My goodness, the Leonards are placing far too much importance on Seamus. Even their own closest blood heirs probably don’t get treatment like this.”

After all, Seamus had a mere Innate Realm cultivation, yet he was being granted a Saint Realm weapon, which was unthinkable no matter where you went.

“Freya, you really didn’t pick the wrong man.” Patrick’s face was full of excitement.

Freya, too, wore a look of delight, her eyes brimming with adoration as she gazed at Seamus.

“Teagan, Seamus has really gone and made something of himself now. The Leonards think highly of him and gifted him a Saint Realm spear. Well, well.” Rosie marveled again and again.

Teagan, standing off to the side, kept feeling that something was off, though she couldn’t put her finger on exactly what.

As for Connor, Alice, and Seamus, the three of them were already wild with joy inside by this point.

“All right, let me take a good look before I name it.” Seamus stepped forward and gently ran his hand along the spear’s shaft, absolutely on cloud nine inside.

The day before, the Sage Master Realm combat sword that should have been his had been snatched away by Skyler, and he’d still been lamenting the loss.

He’d never imagined that in the blink of an eye, he’d end up with a Saint Realm spear instead.

By comparison, a mere beat-up Sage Master Realm sword wasn’t worth a damn.

With this spear in hand, the next time he faced Skyler, he’d make sure Skyler learned what total domination really meant.

Meanwhile, at the Webb Residence.

Skyler sat cross-legged, and as his eyes snapped open, a powerful, domineering aura burst from him.

The first stage of the Innate Realm!

After a single night of cultivation, he’d astonishingly broken past the Postnatal Realm and reached the Innate Realm, putting him on equal footing with Seamus.

But it had taken Seamus several full years to cultivate to this level.

Skyler, on the other hand, had needed a mere three days.

And at the same level, even ten Seamuses put together would be no match for him.

“If I drink down that drop of Dragon Essence diluted ten thousandfold, my cultivation speed should increase even more.”

Skyler took out the Dragon Essence that Raymond had given him, about to swallow it and keep cultivating.

But right at that moment, Skyler’s phone suddenly rang.

Skyler pulled out his phone and looked, and the caller was none other than Israel, Commander of the western warzone.

The western border had been pacified by now, so what was Israel calling him for at a time like this?

Could it be that the fallen Demon King had flown into a rage after hearing news of the Silverwyrm’s death? But even if the fallen demon dragon went berserk, there were those few Heavenly Realm old-timers to hold the line, so what did it have to do with him?

After a brief hesitation, Skyler pressed the button to answer anyway.

The moment the call connected, Israel’s laughter came through. “Seamus, the spear forged from the Silverwyrm’s spine is handling nicely for you, I hope?

“I had Jennifer from the Leonards deliver it to you in person. What do you say-that ought to

make you look pretty good, wouldn’t it? And while you’re at it, take a look and see what you think of her.”

Israel was very close with the Leonards and meant to personally put in a few good words for Jennifer.

“Hold on.” Before Israel could even finish, Skyler cut him off. “I never got any spear. Where did you have her send it?”

Israel was slightly taken aback. “Weren’t you the one who said that once the spear was forged, it should be sent to the Younts in Riverspire?”

Skyler rubbed the space between his brows, having forgotten all about that. “Then have her send it to the Webb Residence in Riverspire instead.”

Though he had no idea what was going on, it was such a small thing that Israel naturally agreed without a second thought.

Then he said in an earnest tone, “Seamus, you’re a grown man now, and it’s about time you started thinking about settling down.

“That Jennifer, I watched her grow up myself. Her talent and gifts are both first-rate. See whether the two of you hit it off, and if you take a liking to her, give things a shot with her.”

Skyler was speechless for a moment, then said irritably, “Come on, Israel, why are you sticking your nose into this for no reason?”

Right now, he had little interest in women.

“What do you mean? I’ll have you know I’m the Commander of the western warzone, and your direct superior, to boot!” Israel huffed and glared.

As he spoke, his tone grew heavier as well. “And you think I actually enjoy fretting over nothing? This whole thing is good for you and for the Leonards both.

“The Leonards’ ancestor is nearing the end of his lifespan, and the younger generation in the family just doesn’t measure up, so they’re in urgent need of a powerhouse with the potential to break through to the Heavenly Realm to marry into the family.

“As long as you agree to be with Jennifer, the Leonards are sure to pour everything into grooming you, and their ancestor will even coach you personally to help you break through to the Heavenly Realm.”

He went on earnestly, “You may be only a half-step away from the Heavenly Realm, but you have to understand, throughout history there’s no telling how many geniuses have gotten

stuck at this very half-step, never able to advance an inch for the rest of their lives! If you can get the Leonards’ backing, your odds will at least be a little better.”

Israel had figured that after he’d laid it all out so earnestly, weighing the pros and cons, Skyler would at least give it some serious thought even if he didn’t agree right away.

But Skyler merely said calmly, “We’ll see. First, have her send my spear over.”

He wasn’t like other people, because what he cultivated was the forbidden martial art, the Ninefold Genesis Art, and aside from the times he needed to dissipate and rebuild his cultivation, he faced no bottlenecks whatsoever.
