This midsummer dawn was uncommonly cool. Ji Ning, still clad in his black furs, walked out from the estate atop Darknorth Peak.
"Senior apprentice-brother Ji Ning." Meng Roch, who had grown only more muscular and tanned, immediately greeted him with respect.
"Rocky, prepare some food for me. Same as what we've done in the past." Ning laughed as he gave some instructions. In the past three years, Northmont Baiwei had delivered two more retainers, and so he now had a total of six under his control. He was now quite familiar with all six of them, but he still trusted Roch the most.
Because Roch had damaged his ki foundation in the past, upon entering the Black-White College, he began to train as a Fiendgod as well, and his skin had darkened as a result. "Yes, senior apprentice-brother Ji Ning," Roch said, immediately departing.
