Chapter 140: Mount G Exchange Conference
Chapter 140: Mount G Exchange Conference
Jacob and Lena headed for Mount G.
It was the first time Lena had come to attend a martial arts exchange conference, which was also a
meeting of secluded families. Though it was between juniors, Lena was still a little excited.
As for Jacob, he appeared very calm, yet he was also quite excited inside.
During his stay in City R, he had already obtained a superb alchemy furnace before the exchange
conference of secluded families began. That was a great surprise.
As a result, Jacob began to look forward to the exchange conference for juniors of secluded families.
Of course, Jacob wasn't expecting these juniors to bring out anything that would interest him a lot.
He had other plans.
And these plans were closely related to the secluded families.
This exchange conference would serve as the best opportunity.
In his way here, he had contacted Alan. And at this time, Alan was already at the spot of Mount G
Exchange Conference.
As expected, Jacob saw Alan from afar upon arrival at the destination.
After seeing Jacob, he immediately walked over smilingly. "Mr. Reyes, I thought you weren't coming."
Jacob smiled, "How could I do that at Mr. Dale's invitation and with your token?"
"I heard that there will be some good stuff in this exchange conference, and Mr. Reyes might be
interested," said Alan.
Then he noticed Lena, who was half a step behind Jacob. His eyes suddenly lit up. "Is this lady your
wife?"
He asked immediately. At the same time, he was slightly surprised at Lena's appearance and air.
Alan already knew Jacob had a wife when he returned with Jacob from his trip to the Triangle Region.
Lena blushed at his words. Though she really wanted to acquiesce, she still explained, "I'm Lena Bell
of the Bell family."
An awkward expression appeared on Alan's face. He knew that Jacob's wife was named Kaley Harris.
Jacob couldn't help but show a smile. He said, "Lena Bell is the current matriarch of the Bell family, one
of the secluded families!"
"What?" Alan looked astonished at his words.
Wasn't Albert Bell, the Lightning Dragon the patriarch of the Bell family?
It was Albert's son, Dylan who was supposed to attend the conference.
However, he hadn't appeared yet.
Alan also knew that Jacob always meant what he said. He pinched himself fiercely and asked in a
trembling voice, "Really?"
"Yes, indeed!" Jacob said. Lena also acquiesced and took out the conference token of the Bell family.
Only then did Alan finally confirm it.
The head of the Bell family, which was a secluded family, was actually a woman in the Virtuoso Phase.
He had never seen or heard of any head of any secluded family who was only a virtuoso.
Alan had multiple questions and doubts in his mind, but at this moment, he had to suppress the desire
to ask them. Obviously, it belonged to the kind of secret that he should never ask about.
However, if Lena was really the matriarch of the Bell family, then something must have happened in the
family.
And this definitely had something to do with Jacob.
Alan thought to himself.
"Mr. Dale, these are the panaceas I borrowed from you last time. Take a look!"
As he spoke, Jacob took out the panaceas and some medicinal herbs he had prepared to return to
Alan.
It was twice what Alan had given him at that time.
Emperor of the Dark Realm was indeed a man of his word.
Alan didn't decline and received all of them.
"Let's go in. There are already a lot of people here."
Alan said after saving the elixirs and herbs.
Jacob nodded, and the three of them headed for the conference hall.
The Mount G Exchange Conference was held by the Stone family, another secluded families.
It was on the top of the back of Mount G.
That area was not open to the public.
On the top of the mountain stood a two-story antique pavilion.
On its roof were carved and painted patterns like dragons and phoenixes.
Nobody knew since when it had existed.
Jacob arrived and saw two women in cheongsam. They were outside the pavilion to welcome the
guests.
Despite their work, they were both Would-be virtuosos.
Anyone with such strength could easily dominate the outside world.
"Good morning, sir. Please show me your conference token!"
Seeing Jacob and the other two, one of the women greeted them politely. She was tall, plump and
good-looking.
Jacob took out a token and handed it to her.
However, what Jacob took out was not the token Alan had given him earlier. Alan's token was inscribed
with the word Dale.
It was the Bell family's token.
When the woman saw both Jacob and Lena take out the Bell family's token, a trace of surprise flashed
in her eyes, but it was well concealed. Then, she made a gesture to invite them in.
Immediately, Jacob and Lena walked into the pavilion.
Alan also followed.
He introduced the situation in the pavilion to them.
Since it was an exchange conference between secluded families, the seats here were divided
according to the families.
Coincidentally, the seats of the Dale family were near those of the Bell family.
Jacob and Lena followed Alan to their respective family seats. Then Jacob closed his eyes and rested.
During this period, many more people came one after another.
Some were reminiscing about the past, while others were silent.
However, the environment had been relatively quiet.
Until the arrival of a group of people changed the situation.
Instantly, the pavilion became lively.
Almost everyone turned to gaze at the group.
"These three are from the Heavenly Pavilion."
"The Heavenly Pavilion is very mysterious. It is said to have the capability of infallible calculation, and it
also takes charge of the well-known Virtuoso Rankings. Previously, you were ranked third. But now,
you are number one."
Alan said.
If it was a ranking that was famous in the whole universe, Jacob might be interested to improve his
ranking. As for the shit rankings of the Heavenly Pavilion, he didn't care at all. He wouldn't say anything
even if he came last.
After the three from the Heavenly Pavilion arrived, many arrogant and unruly youths greeted them.
Though the three appeared careless and responded one by one, they were extremely proud in their
hearts.
But at this moment, another commotion came from the entrance of the pavilion.
After everyone saw the comers, the pavilion got even livelier.
"Mr. Reyes, these four comers are from the Pharmacy Pavilion."
"More than 80% of the elixirs, of the secluded families and even of the secular world, are from the
Pharmacy Pavilion!"
Seeing Jacob looking at him, Alan said immediately.
"Look at the two among them. The man on the left is called Brennen Ayes. He is the direct disciple of
the elder of the Pharmacy Pavilion. As a Semi-Divinity expert, he certainly has incalculable strength."
"The woman next to him, dressed in a windbreaker and with black hair, is called Yana Cox. She's also
a direct disciple of the Pharmacy Pavilion. She is said to have a talent for pill refining that is as great as
that of the current master of the Pharmacy Pavilion."
Alan explained.
Jacob couldn't care less about Brennen. He could kill one of this kind easily.
And even if there were ten of the kind, he could instantly kill all of them.
On the contrary, he took a few more glances at Yana.
While Jacob was observing Yana, she also looked in his direction as if she could feel his gaze.
The gazes of the two met in the air.
Jacob's gaze was as bright as a burning torch. He remained unmoved and seemed to be able to see
through Yana.
Yana, on the other hand, felt as if everything had been exposed under Jacob's gaze.
She didn't like this feeling at all and immediately dropped her gaze.
However, she got secretly wary of Jacob.
Few young people could oppress her like this, and all of them were exceptionally talented.
In her impression, Lance of the Lewin family was one of them.
After the people from the Heavenly Pavilion and the Pharmacy Pavilion arrived, the seats in the
pavilion were almost fully occupied. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
However, the family Jacob was expecting had yet to arrive.
That was the Lewin family, another secluded family.
The Lewin family still owed him countless treasures and panaceas.
Since the last time Robby signed the Soul IOU, Jacob had not yet asked the Lewin family for anything.
After today, it was time to start his plans with the Lewin family.
A little while later.
Another man walked in.
"Lance Lewin of the Lewin family!"
Alan said beside Jacob.
Even Alan became kind of serious when he mentioned the name.
Lance was such a genius that even Alan had to admire him.
At such a young age, he had been in the end of the Semi-Divinity Phase and was already trying to
reach the Divinity Phase.
If things went well, he could reach the Divinity Phase before thirty.
Given his talent, few could compare to him even in the secluded families.
Moreover, Lance was not only extraordinarily talented, but also singularly persisted in martial arts
cultivation.
Except cultivation, he didn't care about anything at all. He didn't even want to be the successor to the
patriarch of the Lewin family, for he thought that would delay his martial arts cultivation.
Alan could do nothing but admire such a man.
After entering the pavilion, Lance looked around and then fixed Jacob with a stare.
The bloodlust flashed in his eyes as he stared at Jacob.
Alan happened to see that and was a little surprised. "Mr. Reyes, you had a conflict with him?"
Jacob nodded. "I have no conflict with him, but his younger brother Robby signed an IOU with me, and
therefore the Lewin family owes me a lot of good stuff."
"Then ... Mr. Reyes, you'd better be careful. Lance is about to reach the Divinity Phase. He's far
stronger than the ordinary Semi-Divinity experts." Though he knew Jacob was formidable and even
seemed a Divinity expert, he still reminded him.
Jacob didn't care about Lance's bloodlust at all.
He could kill at will any Divinity expert, let alone Lance, who hadn't reached the Divinity Phase. Yet
Lance even dared to show bloodlust towards him.
Coincidentally, even if Lance didn't cause him any trouble, he would still make trouble for Lance.
At this time, the representatives of every secluded family had all arrived.
Then a man in his twenties walked out of the crowd.
He walked onto the stage.
He folded his hands in front and said, "Today, I am deeply honored to invite all of you to Mount G for
the exchange conference. We had held many exchange conferences before, and every time, many of
us can go back home satisfied. I hope that everyone here will be able to get what they like today."
