Chapter 2515: Chapter 2515: The Stubborn Lorvian Randall Is in Trouble

Carson Flores admitted that he was tempted.

Entering the Suffering Pray Sea to rescue Lorvian Randall offered many benefits. First, acquiring the Cultivation Technique that absorbs Will Power. Second, obtaining the method to resolve the fluctuations of the Primordial Profound Water Technique. Third, gaining the Magical Clam Pearl that aids in Breakthrough.

Given that, why not go?

Carson Flores didn’t immediately agree but said he needed to think about it.

Cillian Bernard became anxious when Carson said he needed to consider, fearing he might ultimately refuse. She quickly added more incentives.

"Mr. Flores, as long as you are willing to act and rescue Randall, whatever conditions you have, just name them. As long as I can do it, I’ll agree."

Carson didn’t plan to exploit her but wanted to confirm the details of this matter and the situation at Suffering Pray Sea.

Being new, with a sudden visit from a woman without seeing the main person involved, Carson naturally needed to be cautious. Otherwise, he might be sold and still help count the money.

"I need to discuss it first and will give you an answer in three days."

Cillian had no choice but to leave, and Carson once again found the small-time leader he had contacted earlier, giving him some Spirit Stones to help gather information.

The small-time leader was a bit puzzled but who wouldn’t want to earn money?

It’s merely gathering information, not violating sect rules, so what’s there to worry about?

Soon, the small-time leader brought back the information Carson wanted. Everything Cillian Bernard said was true, including her identity and the information about Suffering Pray Sea.

Besides, Carson also received another piece of information. Currently, a disciple named Draven Aarav is about to temporarily assume the role of Saint Heir, and this Draven Aarav is related to Vice Sect Leader Crispin Valentine.

The Aarav Family and the Valentine Family are longstanding allies, with many family disciples intermarrying, essentially acting as one family.

Upon hearing this news and combining it with what Cillian said, Carson realized that Lorvian Randall might be in trouble.

With the support from the Valentine Family and the Aarav Family, Draven Aarav was well-connected. When Lorvian Randall returns in a hundred years, without any subordinates or support, how can he reclaim his position as Saint Heir?

How could the Valentine Family and the Aarav Family allow him to return to the position of Saint Heir?

If they are ruthless, it’s likely that the Valentine Family and the Aarav Family are already discussing how to eliminate Lorvian Randall in Suffering Pray Sea.

Suffering Pray Sea is a place of exile, with no supervision. If someone found Lorvian Randall and killed him, who would know?

Even if someone did find out, what of it? A criminal stealing something, accidentally killing someone—doesn’t that happen often?

At worst, they could kill him to atone.

The Valentine Family and the Aarav Family, with their wealth and influence, could easily find such Loyal Retainers.

What’s more, they might not even need to kill Lorvian Randall; they just need a reason to cause conflict, severely injure or cripple him. Either way, they’d ruin his future. Even if he returns in a hundred years, what can he do?

Someone with no potential to tap, no future, no background—what value do they have?

Who would care about him?

The Sect Hierarch?

If the Sect Hierarch truly cared for him, they wouldn’t have agreed to exiling him to the Suffering Pray Sea for a hundred years in the first place.

When Carson met Cillian Bernard again, she seemed even more anxious.

"Mr. Flores, I just received news that the Sect Hierarch has appointed Draven Aarav to temporarily assume the position of Saint Heir. Randall is in danger!"

Carson nodded. What he could think of, the Bernard Family could naturally think of too.

"Do you want to help Lorvian Randall on your own behalf, or is this the intention of the entire Bernard Family?"

Cillian Bernard replied without hesitation: "Draven Aarav is backed by the Valentine Family and the Aarav Family. Our Bernard Family has always been at odds with them, both overtly and covertly. Although the Bernard Family doesn’t care much about Randall, they are even less willing to see Draven Aarav secure the position of Saint Heir."

Carson immediately understood: "Since Lorvian Randall doesn’t have any background, and you both have mutual feelings, and you’re set on marrying him, why aren’t you together? With the Bernard Family as his support, wouldn’t that be better?"

Cillian Bernard gave a bitter smile: "Randall is stubborn by nature, wanting to achieve success through his efforts, not wanting to rely on the Bernard Family’s influence. This is partly why he’s kept his distance from me..."

Carson laughed: "What a naive fool; not seizing an opportunity when it’s handed to you!"

Although Carson was also self-reliant by nature, he wouldn’t shy away from opportunities where mutual benefits are involved. It wouldn’t be a refusal.

Isn’t it good to have a backup?

If someone acknowledges you, it’s because there’s mutual benefit. As long as you keep growing, even if you owe a favor initially, you can repay it later, can’t you?

While one indeed has to rely on themselves, flexibility is still necessary.

Carson’s words clearly struck a chord with Cillian Bernard, who nodded repeatedly: "Yes, he’s just too straightforward. My father is quite displeased with him in this regard, saying that anyone who can achieve great things has a mind full of plans—how could he be so stubborn..."

Carson nodded, agreeing that it was true. Clearly, the Bernard Family hoped he could reach a higher position, but with his personality, it seemed quite unlikely, which is why the Bernard Family was so disappointed in him.

"So, is rescuing Lorvian Randall the intention of your family? Since your Bernard Family has an idea, why don’t you take action yourselves and instead seek out an outsider like me?"
