John followed the Vice-Sect Leader in silence while he thought about everything he had heard. 

'Not only is this mission incredibly risky, its also incredibly difficult. I only have six months to gather all this intel according to the Sect Leader, so I will have to be extra brazen with my actions.'

While thinking about his mission, John looked to the Vice-Sect Leader to ask a question he had forgotten to ask.

"Vice-Sect Leader, how long would it take for the Sect Leader to arrive to aid me once I crush that item he gave me?" John asked curiously. 

He would need to know this information in order to use it properly.

The Vice-Sect Leader looked over her shoulder.

"Oh? I already publicly stated that I accepted you as my direct disciple, and still you address me without the proper respect? Do you want another beating?" she replied in an amused tone.
