"I have something I want to say" suddenly stated Elizabeth.

Adam had already told her that he was friends with two young family heads of two of the large cultivation families and had told her to move on and forget about the grudge that she had, which she was planning to do, but it was easier said than done.

She looked over to Adam, seeking his permission before talking, while Adam looked over to her.

"Go ahead" permitted Adam who trusted that she wouldn't ruin her chance at redemption.

"I am Elizabeth Carter and you may not know of the Carter Family, but they once stood alongside the 5 current large cultivation families" she stated, shocking Angela and Cole who knew nothing about it, while Wayde was also surprised and had heard of her family.

She went on to tell them the story of her family and how the other families had attacked her family that was the weakest when it came to combat and stole all of their methods.

Even she herself didn't know much of the details and Wayde had heard from the family head the same story, but Angela and Cole didn't understand what her point was in telling them.

"So. What is your reason for telling us? Are you looking for trouble with us?" asked Angela defensively.

Although she didn't want her relationship with Adam to be ruined by her fighting with Elizabeth, she was the young family head and had to protect her family.

"You are allies and friends of Adam, so that also makes you my ally and friend. I am his subordinate and am not looking for conflict, but I have a request" answered Elizabeth respectfully and humbly, surprising Cole and Angela who were becoming defensive.

"What is it?" they asked.

"If it is possible, could I get a copy of the techniques, skills or methods that your families might have? What has happened has already passed and we are now allies, so I was hoping that I could get a copy of them" requested Elizabeth.

Her request was reasonable and she asked them directly and told them of her past instead of hiding it, which they appreciated.

"I do not have an issue with that and will be in contact with you when I find any that seem to belong to the Carter Family" accepted Cole.

"And I am the same as long as I can give them to you without affecting my family," said Angela.

Elizabeth smiled and had tears in her eyes as she thanked them both graciously.

Adam was pleased by how everything was turning out and was glad that they were able to get along, but he needed to get going.

"Angela, Cole and Chase. I challenge you all to be stronger than me within a year and Wayde, the same to you. You can easily crush me now, but in a year's time, it won't be the same" stated Adam confidently.

"Don't forget about me. With the methods of the Carter Family, I might finally be able to cultivate" added Elizabeth determinedly.

All of them smiled and were eager to get back to their training, excited to see how powerful they would become.

They all began to exchange contacts and speak between themselves. Even Wayde, who usually wouldn't speak to people and found it very hard to open up, was getting involved in the conversations.

While they were doing so, Adam walked away and leant against a nearby tree as he looked up at the sun that was beginning to set. It had been a long and eventful day that had been a rollercoaster of emotions, but Adam had gotten through it and his mind had been fortified by it.

Seeing Adam standing there alone, Cole went up to him and placed his arm over Adam's shoulder as he gave him a reassuring and warm smile.

"If you need to talk and when you are ready to, I will hear all of your worries and struggles. You don't always have to carry the burden of everything alone like you always do and I can see that you are starting to trust people more, which is good" said Cole.

Adam had always tried to take on the world alone, which would always cause him pain and suffering while those around him wouldn't be able to see it, but now he was starting to rely on and trust others more.

He wanted to keep his close circle of friends and allies small, but also wanted to make as many useful contacts as he could, while making sure that he was always in a good and powerful position.

"I will, but there are just some things that I have to sort out myself. If I need you and the others' support, I will turn to you guys, but for now, I need space to train and get back into the right frame of mind" replied Adam.

"I understand, but just remember that I am here to support you" reminded him Cole while the others also came to join them.

"And so are we" they added before bidding each other farewell.

Chase and Elizabeth were eager to begin forming, developing and growing the faction that they had been made leaders of and Angela and Cole were eager to get back to their training.

Wayde was also excited to get back into his training and weirdly felt that Adam was someone that was competition for him despite the large age and power gap as they all prepared to depart from the meeting point.

"I have one more thing to do before returning master," said Adam to himself as he left the park after saying goodbye to all of them.

Adam didn't like long farewells that were very emotional and they had all reached a mutual understanding. 

All of them had to grind and work as hard as they could for the next year, not only to help and support Adam, but also for themselves.
