Kent's Decision
It's been two days since Kent rescued Li Hua and returned her to the Alderford Mansion. He hadn't gone to see his two vixens yet, nor had he taken the time to review the changes that had appeared in his body and the rewards from his quests.
Instead, he decided to learn from his master.
He learned a lot about how the world works and how best to handle the Ashland Noble Family. It was an informative discussion. In the end, Kent made two plans.
First, he would become a Pill Grandmaster (Grandmaster Alchemist) so he could start concocting Tier 3 to Tier 5 pills.
Those would give him the fame he was after. His master even supported his decision, partly because, for some reason, she didn't want to share him with the Sect.
Yes, the woman didn't know why, but she didn't want Kent to get entangled with the academy on that level. Of course, if he joined the Alchemy Gate in the academy, he would gain power and fame, but also unnecessary enemies.
