Chapter 2097  Explanation

With a few seconds more, he had enough strength in himself to pull out a healing pill and eat it. He let the pill flow down to his stomach and diffuse as a regular pill. He did not need it to turn into a pill right now and instead needed the healing.

Alex turned to the side and noticed Silvermist\'s arrival in the sky. He flew down quickly and landed next to Grimsight, looking at Alex worriedly. "What happened? Are you alright?"

"I\'m… fine, senior," Alex said as he struggled to get back up. Pearl held him and helped him get on his feet. "Senior Grimsight saved me at the last moment. I might have died without him."

"Oh! Good," Silvermist said, taking a few breaths to calm himself. He patted Grimsight\'s shoulders. "Good job. You did the right thing leaving me behind."

"Of course," Grimsight said. "You are way too slow. Besides, I\'m not so sure I was even needed."

His eyes turned toward Pearl, seemingly able to see something within him. A small smile formed on his face.

"Who is this young man?" Silvermist asked, curious.

"A child of the White Tigers," Grimsight said. "Have you seen White Tigers away from their land before?"

"Really?" Silvermist asked, surprised. "I know some go to Sacred Lotus Dominion, but not more than that. Never seen one this far out."

"He\'s bonded with the young man," Grimsight explained. "I saw a few working together with humans or demons in the war, but never bonded."

"Bonded?" Silvermist asked, his eyebrows raising a little. "Interesting."

Alex took a deep breath, feeling the secrets he held slip by one after another as the two spoke. Neither Pearl\'s lineage, nor his bond with him were supposed to be known by anyone, and yet the old man could somehow see him and tell exactly what was going on.

How? Alex didn\'t know. But each passing instance gave him major anxiety, to the point that he felt as though the world he had built up was coming apart.

Pearl held onto Alex tightly as well, ready to run away should that be the case.

"What do seniors intend to do with this knowledge," Alex asked, getting to the gist of it all.

"Hm?" Silvermist asked. "What knowledge? That your beast is a White Tiger?" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Alex gritted his teeth and nodded.

Silvermist barely shrugged. "I mean, it\'s just a fun bit of knowledge. Nothing fascinating. It\'s not like I\'ve never seen a White Tiger before. You come from a lower realm, don\'t you? It must be one of those ones where they sent the four beasts to look over the realm. Did you meet this young one there?"

Alex nodded slowly, saying nothing else.

"You are worried," Grimsight said, "that your secrets are out. You need not be."

"I\'m sorry, but I can\'t just not be worried just because you say so, senior," Alex said, feeling the courage to fight against the dreadful feeling he got from looking at the man\'s single eye. "In the first place, how did you even know where I was? Have you placed some sort of technique to follow me?"

"We merely arrived at your shop minutes after you left," Grimsight explained. "We were told you left in a hurry, seemingly angry. We heard about the young man who tried to kill himself."

"How did you find me then?" he asked. "How did you know where I was?"

Grimsight pointed to his single eye. "With this. I may have a single eye, but it sees far more than what you can see with your two. I could see where you had left, and I followed it. I found the giant barrier here and knew this had to be the place."

The explanation was… cryptic for the most part, but satisfactory. He could tell the man didn\'t want to go into explanation on how he could do what he did with his eyes, and Alex understood the sentiment. He felt the same thing right now and hoped his secrets weren\'t so plainly visible to the man. It was a blessing he hadn\'t seen Godslayer. Alex could only wonder what he would have done if he had arrived when he was still using Godslayer.

"If you are alright, we should return. We can talk about the rest once we see to your health," Silvermist said and pulled out a medium-sized ship of magnificent emerald color, with a silvery cloud covering the bottom half of it, almost as if it were a mist.

Alex thought that was just because of the man\'s name, but upon further attention, he noticed that the cloud was in fact a Transmigration Cloud, one that he had seen within the Blue Silk sect\'s treasury.

"Does senior want those items?" Alex asked, pointing to the treasures that had fallen out of the dead man. Grimsight shook his head. "They are useless to the both of us. You may take it, but be careful. I see a lot of poison in there."

Alex nodded and quickly poured everything from there into his Soul Space, including whatever was destroyed or broken. He would check later what was worth keeping and what was not.

Alex accepted the proposal of going back to the city and got on the ship. He didn\'t want to talk about everything right now because he needed to get his thoughts in order.

He had been in so much pain when Grimsight had arrived that he wasn\'t sure if there were things he had missed. He needed Pearl\'s help in going through it all

Alex\'s mind reviewed the happenings of the matter moments ago, all the way from when he got the talisman to when the white storm destroyed the man within seconds.

That had been weapon Qi, right? He had seen Spear Qi, but it had only appeared around the enemy, not around the man.

Domains could be focused on one spot, but they had to originate from around one\'s body, so how had the old man done it? Was this… a step higher than Spear Domain? \'No, now\'s not the time to be thinking about this,\' Alex thought. He needed to know what he was going to do now that some of his secrets were out. If he remained around these people for too long, more and more of his secrets would come out and at one point or another, it would be too enticing for even Divine realm cultivators.

These people were no different.

Alex needed to draw the line quickly and precisely. This was more than just a matter of his secret now; this was a matter of life and death.

Even when his life was on the line earlier, Alex hadn\'t been this scared or nervous. He didn\'t know how the talk was going to go. He simply wished for the best and prepared for the worst.
