The Fairy Doctor saw his solemn expression, so she said, âUncle Drake, there arenât many experts in
Japan, right? Is this Aoda Sasaki powerful? Why are you so afraid of it?â
Uncle Drake said, âDonât look down on Japan, especially since there are some powerful beings in those
few shrines. And, this Aoda Sasaki has been a sword maniac since he was young. He only specializes
in studying one thing in his entire life, thatâs kendo! His kendo has reached the edge of the limit.â
âCould it be that you canât defeat him?â
âItâs hard to say. His sword is strange.â Then, Uncle Drake did not mention this matter anymore.
In addition, he had no time to lose as he had to save the person as soon as possible. Since Uncle
Drake had made such a request, Alex and the Fairy Doctor could not refuse him. Deep down, Alex was
quite worried about Martiny Mayer, Nora Stewart, and others. Moreover, he was quite anxious as Carol
Rockefeller had not been found.

It was a distant journey from the Flying Eagles Academy to Japan.
Besides, Uncle Drake said that he had a nemesis in Japan. Once he flew over there forcibly using his
cultivation base, not only would it have significant consumption, but that nemesis would detect his
movement as well.
He had to travel there by plane for safetyâs sake.
Alex could only ask help from his master, Jade Benmore. On the other hand, Jade let her tactician,
Eleanor Curtis, make the arrangements.
It was now the night of New Yearâs Eve. It was challenging to find a last minute flight to Japan. In the
end, she found a flight from Michigan International Airport that was going to depart in half an hour or so
later. The question was, could they get there in time?
If they could not get there in time, she could make arrangements to delay the flight.
Uncle Drake said, âNo problem.â
If Alex wanted to rush to Michigan from the Flying Eagles in half an hour or so, he felt that half an hour
would be insufficient to get there. However, Uncle Drakeâs cultivation base was much greater than his.
He grabbed Alex and the Fairy Doctor with each side of his hand, respectively, and the cultivation
patterns appeared under his feet. As soon as he made the first step, he had flown out of the Flying
Eagles Academy.
When he made another step, he had reached ten miles away.
Alexâs eyes widened in shock. He stared at the cultivation patterns under Uncle Drakeâs feet and
mumbled, âCould it be that this is the supernatural power of the Terrain Stride?â
Uncle Drake took a glance at him and said, âRockefeller brat, it looks like you know many things. You
even know about the Terrain Stride. Youâre right. This is the supernatural power of our Dragon
Guardians! Are you interested in joining our Dragon Guardians? I think youâre quite suitable for it. Once
youâve become a Dragon Guardian, you will be able to learn this supernatural power.â
Alex shook his head.
He had acquired Ksitigarbhaâs Legacy and was a descendant of the God of Medicine who possessed
the Chaos Beads. Earlier, he had just devoured about half of the Ancestor Dragonâs essence. He was
reluctant to become a member of the Exorcist Dragons, let alone become the Guardian of the Exorcist
Dragons.
Uncle Drake snorted. âOnce you miss this chance, you wonât be able to get another!â
In the end, in less than twenty minutes, Uncle Drake, who took Alex and the Fairy Doctor, appeared at
Michigan International Airport.
Someone had been waiting at the airportâs entrance, the Flying Eagles team member arranged by the
tactician⦠They were given the green light all the way. Even Alex and the Fairy Doctor did not have to
show their credentials and entered the first- class cabin that had been arranged through an internal
jetway.
The first-class seats in the plane were separated from each other, so the privacy was quite decent.
The Fairy Doctor initially wanted to sit together with Alex, but she could not do so. Since the three of
them did not have the plane tickets, they just found some random seats to sit.
Alex wanted to look at the current situation within the golden core. After sitting down, he just closed his
eyes and concentrated his thoughts on the golden core.
After a while, someone nudged him and woke him up. It was a young woman similar to his age who
was fastidious in her fashion and wore an elegant outfit.
She said to him, âSir, this is my seat.â
âHuh?â Alex opened his eyes and was startled for a moment. At this moment, he felt somewhat familiar
after looking at the womanâs face.
Just as he was wondering about where he had seen her, the woman asked dubiously, âYou⦠Youâre
Alex Rockefeller, right?â
