Surprise

After heading back into the valley, Rean then looked at the World Swallowing Cedar and asked, "What about Celis? Should we leave or bring him inside the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm?"

Celis already heard what happened through Kentucky, so he immediately answered, "Why? Can't you do such a thing by yourselves? I told you before. I have no need for battle experience, and I know what I need to do to cultivate. In fact, now that I've returned to this stage, I'm being even more thorough, fixing some mistakes I made in the past. Just leave me here unless you're sure you'll be in a precarious situation."

Rean, Roan, and Kentucky didn't mind. They only asked to see what Celis wanted to do. After all, it was true that Celis could keep cultivating while they were on the move. It wouldn't be as good as the four of them cultivating, but it was better than nothing. "Alright, then. We will leave you here. Take care of the kids, Celis."
