A week later, Brian's only focus was to contribute to the mercenary group. He would leave the siheyuan with Jake and hunt some monsters and also save some villages in need of so-called protection. Furthermore, he needed to focus on his cultivation.
After their daily training, leaving a rocky mountain and descending in where the direction of the capital city of the Wu region was, Jake sighed in somewhat of a disappointment with himself. He faced Brian with a kind of sad expression on his face.
"I apologize that I can't be any help to you when it comes to cultivation. For some reason, the time I started practicing my martial arts, I gained no ability to cultivate."
Brian heard the saddened tone from him, and what he could only feel was guilt that he might be pressured since the real case was starting. Brian was starting to be known in the group as someone who was a rising star and also an important person in the White Lead.
