Chapter 207: Helping the Earth Leader Breakthrough Part 1
"Angela, don't feel disheartened, we will be leaving the continent in the next few days and I am sure you will be able to catch up to me" reassured her Lex, seeing that she was disappointed in herself.
"Even if you don't want to cultivate, there is nobody who would dare to mess with you under my protection" stated Lex.
'Angela you are progressing so quickly it is incredible and it mostly thanks to you chasing Lex. But you need to be realistic, he is not a human. That guy is a monster and I sensed it from the first time that he came to me, and the Lower Plains are not ready for such an existence' communicated the Jade Empress to Angela through the bracelet.
Angela realised that she was competing with Lex in the wrong way and her progress was incredible even for peak level talents on the Lower Plains, from what she had heard from the Jade Empress, so she shouldn't be comparing herself to Lex.
"Thanks Lex, and I will try my best to catch up to you" stated Angela as she smiled warmly.
She had already cut ties with the continent after being sure that everything was fine and after coming to terms with everything that she had been through on it.
Thinking about it, she would probably still be in the slums of the Aria Country if it wasn't for Lex and at the same time, she wouldn't have been in as much danger as she had been in.
But her cultivation, power and capability was mostly thanks to him and that was something that couldn't be repaid and no matter how much she thanked him.
"I was talking to the earth leader before bringing you here, so I'm going to go back to him. Do you want to go back to the Sub-Dimension so you can stabilise your cultivation?" asked Lex.
"No not now, I will come with you and will stabilise my cultivation after talking to the Earth Leader" stated Angela.
It was important for one to spend time cultivating straight after or soon after breaking through as the individual's body and cultivation would be unstable and it was dangerous for one to use their full power straight after breaking through.
It could damage their foundations and even cause them to drop back to the cultivation level they were at before breaking through. Lex didn't need to stabilise his cultivation level in most cases as his foundations and body were always very stable and ready to reach the next level.
Angela would probably need a few days to stabilise her cultivation and for some, it could take as long as a few years to do so.
"Alright, since it won't take that long, but remember how important it is to stabilise your cultivation and you might ruin the progress that you made" warned Lex.
"Wanna race it there?" offered Angela, clearly eager to test out her speed after breaking through.
"I don't think you have a chance," said Lex who had placed a Spacial Mark on the Earth Leader so that he could return to him after he was done dealing with Angela's breakthrough.
"Are you sure about that?" asked Angela, clearly feeling underestimated by Lex.
"Alright, I will give you a 3 minute head start," said Lex.
"3 minutes is almost all the time I need to get there, are you sure?" asked Angela.
"Go ahead," said Lex as he sat on the ground.
Without saying another word, Angela suddenly jumped down from the mountain with incredible speed and done something that even Lex wasn't expecting.
She was gliding on ice through the air and she was forming a path of ice beneath her feet using water from her body and the air around her, while also producing water with her own energy.
Using that skill, she would be able to reach the earth leader within around 5 minutes and Angela could sense that Lex hadn't moved from the mountain.
After 3 minutes were up, Lex withdrew Kano from his inventory and flew through the air at speeds that were too fast for Angela to even see and within a minute he was able to catch up to Angela who had jumped down to ground and continued siding on the ground.
"How did you catch up so quickly" exclaimed Anglea who suddenly felt a gust of wind, then saw Lex hovering beside her.
Lex shrugged that said, "I will see you at the Earth Leader's office," with a smile as he suddenly disappeared.
She recognised the feeling that she felt when she did so and could tell that Lex had teleported there, which revealed to her that he could have teleported to the Earth Leader if he had wanted to.
The Earth Leader who was speaking to one of his subordinates through a communication device was suddenly startled when Lex appeared behind him out of thin air.
"You have got to stop appearing out of nowhere like that," said the Earth Leader who would be scared by Lex's sudden appearance each and every time that he teleported to him.
"Do as I said and do it quickly?" said the Earth Leader to his subordinate through the communication device before cutting off the connection.
"Now then where were we. We were talking about when you were going to leave right" said the Earth Leader as Lex sat on the chair opposite to him.
Lex was going to wait for Angela to stabilise her cultivation level and wanted to leave the safety, peace and prosperity of the continent in the hands of the Earth Leader.
They spoke for a few minutes and the Earth Leader gave Lex a report of how everything on the continent was going, before Angela barged in.
Seeing Lex sat there talking to the Earth Leader, she greeted the Earth Leader, then requested for Lex to transport her to his Sub-Dimension.
Sending her inside so that she could cultivate, Lex came to a sudden decision.
"Listen, I will help you breakthrough by providing you the energy that you need to do so, but whether you succeed or not depends on your willpower and aptitude" stated Lex.
