Seven days later.
Outside a hidden cave, Gerald said to Salvatore and the others, "I'm going to enter seclusion here for a few days. The few of you, guard the entrance of the cave. Don't let anyone or animals come in and disturb me. If an expert stronger than me appears, send me a signal in advance, understand?"
Salvatore hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Boss. If anyone dares to disturb our Boss's cultivation, I'll cripple them. If two come, I'll cripple both! Lord Gerald, cultivate in peace. You'll definitely break through this time!"
Gerald also seemed to like how Salvatore praised him. Although Salvatore followed Gerald for the shortest time, he trusted him the most.
Gerald nodded. "Yes, this seclusion breakthrough is very important. If we're not careful, we might go berserk. With you guys guarding here, I'll be at ease."
