The Medallion

"Basil?" Rocky suddenly heard someone call him from behind. When he turned around, he was a bit surprised to see that it was actually Colton, together with a much older man.

"Sir, what are you doing here?" Rocky was quite confused to see them there because he had no idea what happened in the Holy Heaven Palace after he suddenly entered the Holy-Evil World.

"I should be the one asking questions. Why did you disappear all of a sudden? We have been searching for you. Where on earth have you been?" Colton returned the question with a stern face.

"Well, I have been in the Holy Heaven Palace all this time. But I don't think the places I've been to were part of the Spiritual Divine Land," Rocky answered honestly. Although, he deliberately left out the part that he entered the Holy-Evil World.

"But what happened? How were you able to go to such places?" Colton was still unsatisfied with Rocky's replies, and he wanted more details.

"It's a long story, sir. Moreover, I'm afraid that there are some things that I can't tell you just yet." Since what Deacon, the master of the Holy Heaven Palace, said was not something that could be easily understood by ordinary people, Rocky thought that it was not the right time to reveal them even to Colton.

"Colton, I can sense that the connection between this young man and the Holy Heaven Palace is beyond our imagination. I think it's better to heed his advice and not ask too much right now," the older man with Colton suddenly cut in.

"And this is..." Before Rocky could finish his sentence, he was a bit startled when he perceived that the old man was actually emitting an overwhelming power that also seemed to have reached the Shura Realm.

"Oh, this is my grandfather, Jaiden."

"I see. It is a pleasure to meet you, sir," Rocky immediately greeted and cupped his hands in front of Jaiden.

"I need to thank you, young man. If it weren't for you, I might have been trapped in that world for good," Jaiden said, solemnly expressed his gratitude.

"But I can feel that you are incredibly powerful. In fact, am I right that you have already reached the Shura Realm?" Rocky asked at once, trying to confirm his hunch. He assumed that Jaiden must have been trapped in the area between the Holy-Evil World and Holy Heaven Palace for quite some time.

butted in and said, "That is not important right now. I don't care what happened to you inside the Holy Heaven Palace, but at least give me a proper explanation on why you suddenly disappeared. Otherwise, I won't know what to tell the other forces. At that time, I am certain that they will demand to open an investigation about this matter. Everyone knows that the Holy Heaven Palace is not an ordinary place. If they learned that you have somehow gained
