Chapter 166: Chapter 166: The True Purpose
"His Royal Highness Wang invites you," a middle-aged soldier politely gestured for Peter Brown to enter.
Peter Brown nodded slightly and walked in.
The situation was somewhat puzzling, as the prince of the Eastern Kingdom had only invited Peter to the banquet, leaving out everyone else. Peter had been brought here specifically for this occasion.
Looking around, Peter noticed that they were in a Five Star Grand Hotel, and the entire floor seemed to be reserved. The residents appeared to be from the Eastern Kingdom, and there were quite a few guards as well.
It was clear that the upper and lower floors had also been reserved.
A lavish setup indeed!
If this had happened before Peter started his cultivation journey, he might have felt intimidated. However, now that he had embarked on his cultivation path, he was much more confident and did not feel uneasy. He strode into the hotel.
"My friend, you have finally arrived!" Christopher Carter stepped forward and embraced Peter.
To be honest, Peter was not used to this kind of embrace and could only pretend to be very happy and hug back.
"Mr. Wang, please come in," he said.
As Peter entered, he saw several bodyguards inside. Upon closer inspection, these bodyguards seemed to be top-notch military experts.
However, despite their strong qi and blood, they were no match for cultivators.
At this moment, Peter’s gaze fell on an inconspicuous person standing nearby.
A cultivator, with the Qi Refining Second Layer!
Seeing this foreigner’s cultivation level, Peter nodded secretly, thinking that it was appropriate for such an expert to protect them.
Noticing Peter’s gaze on the man, Carter’s eyes flashed with curiosity as he smiled, "As expected of a master, you noticed Braden’s situation at a glance. Let me introduce you to him, he is a top expert in our country named Braden."
Peter nodded and said, "Nice to meet you."
Braden just nodded back at Peter without saying anything.
"Mr. Wang, please have a seat."
After inviting Peter to sit down, Carter asked, "Mr. Wang, are you a top cultivation expert in Hua Nation?"
The question was rather straightforward, and Peter looked at Carter.
"Actually, I wasn’t truly in an irrecoverable coma!"
Carter’s words stunned Peter. "Why?"
Peter listened carefully, as Carter was speaking in English. This had to be an indication to Peter that he needed to speed up his English learning.
At this moment, Carter called out, and Cabral walked out from the presidential suite.
Seeing Cabral come out, Peter became even more confused. It was clear that the relationship between the two was not bad. It seemed that his guess had been wrong!
"What are you guys playing?"
"Mr. Wang, please forgive our deception. In fact, this was a staged performance orchestrated by both of us. We made up the whole story."
Peter remained silent, knowing that there must be a hidden truth.
Cabral performed a salute towards Peter, "Please forgive my rudeness yesterday."
"You sent someone to assassinate me?" Peter was not happy.
With a bitter smile, Carter replied, "Originally, we just wanted to test Mr. Wang’s cultivation level, but we didn’t expect your cultivation to be so high that you almost killed the person I sent!"
Seeing the distressed expression on Carter’s face, Peter was somewhat speechless.
"As an apology, we have prepared a thousand-year-old Ginseng for you, Mr. Wang. Please accept it."
Thousand-Year-Old Ginseng!
Peter’s eyes lit up immediately. Although he did not lack Lingcao herbs now, and had some in his medicine garden, thousand-year-old Ginseng was extremely rare. Even with money, it might not be possible to buy it.
As Cabral opened a box, Peter confirmed that it was indeed a thousand-year-old Ginseng, and the medicinal power did not seem to have diminished much either.
At this point, Peter thought that if he obtained this Ginseng and paired it with some Lingcao herbs, he should be able to refine the elixir that would help him advance from the Qi Refining Second to Third Layer. With this in mind, his dissatisfaction diminished greatly.
"Tell me, what exactly is the situation so I can make a judgment."
Considering that Dael Smith had already said the higher-ups needed him to accomplish this task, it was better to understand the situation thoroughly.
Seeing Peter accepting the Ginseng, Carter finally said, "Recently, several people in our royal family have suddenly encountered problems, becoming completely different with no apparent reason. At first, we didn’t think much of it, considering it normal behavior. But then the situation occurred in several important people. After a secret investigation, we discovered that it was a cultivator’s doing. We conducted an inquiry but couldn’t find the cause. We knew that Hua Nation had experts, so we used this method to see if anyone could solve the problem caused by cultivators."
There was such a thing!
Peter looked at Cabral and said, "You should be practicing cultivation as well, and Braden is also a high-level cultivator. You should know some information."
"Mr. Wang is indeed a master. That’s right, after the incident, we knew that it was something done by a cultivator, but we couldn’t find any expert in our country who could heal them. Just when Cabral had learned a strange technique, we decided to use this way of seeking help."
"Seeking help?" Peter understood in a split second, "You pretended to be controlled by someone in order to see if Hua Nation had someone capable of dealing with a cultivator, and also sent someone against me, in order to find out if I was a cultivator, right?"
Upon hearing Peter mention the term "cultivator", Carter’s eyes lit up, "You did not disappoint us; you are indeed a cultivation expert. Now we’ll be saved! Indeed, if we wanted to find a cultivator expert, we could find someone at the Qi Refining Fourth Layer. But none of the people we found could treat those who were attacked mysteriously. We had no choice but to look for a healing cultivator."
Cabral added, "That’s correct. First, we needed someone who could heal and be a cultivator. We knew there was a problem in the upper echelons of our country, and we could only come to Hua Nation to find a master. Coming to your Kingdom was our reason for the visit."
"I thought you guys were really here to purchase military firepower."
"As long as Mr. Wang can help us heal people, we will definitely make the purchase."
Thinking about the potential troubles during the trip to the Eastern Kingdom, Peter looked at Carter and said, "I can go with you to save people, but I need a lot of jade stones. I hope you can bring them for me. I need a few days to prepare before we set off."
"No problem at all, isn’t it just jade stones? I’ll have someone buy them immediately."
With Peter’s agreement, a smile spread across Carter’s face.
