Harleen and Night Orchid couldn’t help but smile.
“Stout, are you giving up on trying?” Night Orchid looked at Stout and teased.
“Hehe, if it works, then I wouldn’t have to work so hard on cultivation,” Stout chuckled.
“Hahaha…” Everyone laughed together.
“Billy Boy, can you only inscribe one martial skill on a weapon at a time?” Amber asked.
“Yes!” Billy nodded, “At least with my current array level, I can only do this.”
“Understood!” Amber replied.
For the next half a day, Billy started inscribing ‘Nine Dragons Unite’ on the swords of Harleen and Ivy.
He focused on inscribing arrays on weapons as they were soon to be taken away by Aubree.
If he could provide them with some extra protection, he would feel a bit more at ease.
As to whether this technique could truly help them, that was another matter.
He planned to inscribe ‘Celestial Black Finger’ on the ancient sword, but ultimately changed it to ‘Nine Dragons Unite’.
Although ‘Celestial Black Finger’ is very powerful, he is currently only at a small realm and its power may not surpass ‘Nine Dragons Unite’.
By the evening of that day, Billy handed the swords to Harleen and Ivy.
From the sixth day onwards, Billy started studying the creation of ‘sound transmission talismans’.
He didn’t know where Aubree would take Harleen and Ivy.
Having something like a sound transmission talisman on them would give him peace of mind.
However, he was slightly disappointed that creating a ‘sound transmission talisman’ was more complex than inscribing skills on swords.
It took him three full days to grasp some understanding, and successfully create a talisman that could transmit signals.
However, this talisman was rather limited.
It could only transmit messages within a ten-kilometer range, beyond which the message would not go through.
The only solace was that he now basically understood the principle of the sound transmission talisman. Given some more time, he might make substantial progress.
Furthermore, he carefully examined the batch of ‘sound transmission talismans’ brought out from the ‘Star Secret Space’.
It was confirmed that the effective range of those ‘sound transmission talismans’ was approximately thousands of miles.
Although he had a hunch that Aubree might take Harleen and Ivy to a place thousands of miles away, he still allowed the two of them to wear two ‘sound transmission talismans’.
“Boss, someone is coming!”
On the tenth evening, as the group chatted on the grass, Casey looked up at the sky not far away.
Everyone glanced over, and it was Aubree and the girl in green.
“Sir, beautiful lady!”
Soon, the two landed in the courtyard, and the girl in green quickly approached the group.
Billy, Harleen, and Ivy smiled as they looked at each other.
“Little missy, hello!” Stout replied with a smile.
“Call me Miss!” the girl in green glared at him.
Stout: “…”
“Everyone, nice to see you again!” Aubree walked over.
“Nice to see you, too!” Billy, Harleen, and the others greeted in unison.
“Is this Aubree?” Stephanie Stuart stepped forward and asked Aubree while glancing at both of them.
As Stephanie Stuart assessed Aubree, the latter also scrutinized her.
Soon, a hint of surprise flickered in their eyes.
“And who is this lady?” Aubree turned to Stephanie Stuart.
“She is my mother!” Billy spoke for Stephanie Stuart.
“I see!” Aubree nodded with a relieved expression.
“So, you are Billy’s mother? No wonder you are so beautiful, competing with my mom!” the girl in green remarked.
The girl in green then approached Stephanie Stuart and slightly bowed, “Madam, it’s a pleasure to meet you!”
“Thank you for the compliment, Courtney!” Stephanie Stuart smiled lightly.
“I didn’t expect Skydragon City to be full of talents and surprises!” Aubree continued, looking at Stephanie Stuart.
“Although Madam’s bloodline may be slightly inferior to your son, it is also very rare. Your current potential has not been fully tapped. If Madam trusts me, why not travel with me?”
“In just a few months, I guarantee that I can transform Madam completely!”
After the remark, Aubree pointed at Edie Fennimore, “And this girl, your bloodline is also very special…”
Upon hearing this, Casey and the others couldn’t help but choke a bit.
Why does Aubree seem a bit unreliable? Trying to recruit everyone she meets!
“Thank you for your kind words, Aubree!” Stephanie Stuart smiled lightly once again.
“However, there are many matters to attend to in Skydragon City, so I cannot accept your kindness at the moment. Please understand!”
“Your potential hasn’t even been tapped by ten percent. It’s a pity to stay here. If y-” Aubree persisted.
“Aubree, are you running a pyramid scheme?” Stout couldn’t hold back and interrupted her with a grin.
Aubree: “…”
“Fatty, what’s a pyramid scheme?” The girl in green asked seriously.
Stout: “…”
“Fatty, even though you don’t have a special bloodline, your physique is unique. Do you want to join m-” Aubree turned to Stout.
Stout choked, “Uh, Aubree, you can spare me this, I’m good as I am here!”
Haha… Everyone burst into laughter.
“Aubree, I have a question that I’m curious about,” Bob addressed her.
“Since you always say that my Boss has immense potential, why don’t you recruit him… I mean, why don’t you want to take him with you?”
This question not only piqued his curiosity but also the curiosity of Azure Dragon and the others, as they turned to look at Aubree.
“His bloodline is too special. I don’t think I have the ability to help him much,” Aubree responded.
“While I could forcefully push him to progress rapidly in the short term, it would harm him in the long run. His potential can only be unlocked slowly by himself, and outsiders would struggle to assist him!”
“Alright…” The corners of everyone’s mouths twitched.
After chatting for a while longer, Aubree saw that Stephanie Stuart wasn’t willing to accompany her and didn’t insist further.
Subsequently, after bidding a reluctant farewell to Harleen and Ivy, the two followed Aubree and left.
The group of four flew away in the sky, and Aubree’s voice echoed from above.
“The world on your side will soon experience great chaos. It’s better to make preparations early!”
