Despite the fact that the baby fire monkey needed to endure after consuming the pill, Henrick didn't try to convince it because the sooner the bloodline in its body improves, the more benefits it would get.

So, he remained calm and went with the baby fire monkey's decision.

​​

Soon, Henrick sat beside the baby fire monkey and carefully observed it with an anxious expression on his face.

"Huh?"

Henrick thought that the baby fire monkey would start screaming in pain after consuming the pill; however, even after one minute had passed, there was not even a frown on the baby fire monkey's face making Henrick puzzled.

"What is happening? Did the system give me the wrong pill or what?"

Henrick didn't understand what was happening; however, he continued to watch for any expression that would show that the baby fire monkey was in pain.

Nonetheless, he didn't find anything making him happy but at the same time, he was worried that the bloodline cleansing pill was not improving the baby fire monkey's bloodline.

'System, what is happening with Spark?'

If the bloodline cleansing pill was not helping the baby fire monkey, then it should have opened its eyes by now. Since it was still closing its eyes, Henrick felt some hope that the bloodline cleansing pill was helping the baby fire monkey.

So, he decided to ask the system about it.

'Ding,

The beast bloodline cleansing pill is working perfectly fine. Master, you don't need to worry.

Just like always, the system gave a reply within no time making Henrick's anxious disappear.

'Phew...good,'

Soon, he heaved a sigh of relief and as he nodded at the system notification in front of him before asking, "But, didn't you say there will be a lot of pain after consuming the bloodline cleansing pill?"

Henrick stopped worrying about the baby fire monkey' however, he was curious regarding the pain. So, he asked the system for its explanation.

'Ding,

Actually, the baby fire monkey is currently enduring a great amount of pain; however, it is not showing it on its face. Maybe it endured pain greater than this in the past. So, it was able to endure the pain even without showing it on its face.

"What?"

Henrick was shocked to see that system notification and rubbed his eyes to read it once again.

'How is this possible?'

Henrick felt it was impossible for the baby fire monkey to endure pains far greater than cleansing the top tier bloodline.

Moreover, the baby fire monkey was still a baby of around six months or even less than that. So, Henrick was feeling shocked at the fact that the baby fire monkey endured pains before this.

'What could have possibly happened to it? Why does it have to endure so much pain?'

Until now, Henrick didn't think much about the past of the baby fire monkey because he assumed that it was one of the many fire monkeys in the beast mountain that mistakenly came out of the mountain.

However, after learning the fact that the baby fire monkey suffered a great amount of pain prior to meeting him, he unconsciously felt pain in his heart.

'From now on, I promise you that I will protect you from whoever that wants to harm you,' Henrick silently swore in his heart as he affectionately looked at the baby fire monkey.

...…..

In the working disciples' courtyard,

'Zap'

As Henrick was observing the baby fire monkey in his cultivation abode, something red-coloured silhouette landed in front of the Elder Eagor's room in the working disciples' courtyard.

"Eagor, come out at this instant,"

As soon as the silhouette landed, the red-coloured energy started disappearing and an old man with a white beard could be seen shouting in the direction of a room.

"Why are shouting at this hour of the day, old Fionk,"

Soon, the Elder Eagor came out of his room and glared at the old man with a white beard.

"Why do you think? Aren't you ashamed to fool me even after I gave you something valuable?"

However, the owner of the beast mountain didn't flinch even a little at the Elder Eagor's glare; instead, he asked a question in a low but powerful voice.

'Huh? Who is that cultivator?'

'Is Elder Eagor going to fight him?'

'I wonder who is stronger? Our Elder Eagor or that old man with a white beard?'

'Anyway, we should not go near to them; I can already feeling a little trouble with my breathing even at this distance,'

'Yes, yes, we should not go near them,'

While the Elder Eagor and the old man with a white beard were talking seriously, all the working disciples woke up from their sleep because of the noise made by the old man when he landed in the working disciples' courtyard.

However, they didn't go near them because they knew they would die with the energy released by those two old cultivators, it would be impossible for them to survive.

So, they continued to watch from the windows of their rooms which were around 500 meters away from the Elder Eagor's room.

"What are you talking about? Why would I fool you?"

As for Elder Eagor, when he heard the old man's words, he was puzzled as he asked with his brows raised.

"Don't act innocent. You have already fooled me many times in the past," The old man was very serious regarding this matter as he didn't have a tiny bit of trust in Elder Eagor.

"Sigh"

Hearing the old man's word, the Elder Eagor sighed as he shook his head before saying, "Times have changed old Fionk. I am not that young cultivator who used to be mischievous all the time."

The Elder Eagor didn't wait for the old man named Fionk as he continued, "I swear on my dantian that what I have said to you is the truth regarding the baby fire monkey."

As soon as he finished his words, Elder Eaogr didn't wait for the old man's reply as he left to his room and closed his door.
