I don’t think you two need to go to my island.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a short pause. \"I’m already here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia froze. Sorien’s eyes shifted slightly. Both of them turned around at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing a short distance behind them, hands in his pockets, was Garion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion stood there casually, as if he had simply walked over for a stroll.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia’s eyes widened. \"Master?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Sorien could say anything, Dahlia had already dashed forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She slammed into Garion and wrapped her arms around him. \"Are you crazy?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice was loud and frustrated. \"It’s been a year! Why didn’t you call us or send anything?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion blinked once from the sudden hug, then gave a small smile. \"I was a bit busy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia slowly pulled back and then stared at him. \"Busy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyebrows twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded calmly. \"Yeah. On God Island.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia’s expression froze. \"...On what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion repeated casually, \"God Island.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First of all,\" she said, raising a finger, \"why the hell did you need a whole year?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stepped closer to him. \"How can a simple renovation take a year?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion opened his mouth to respond, but Dahlia cut him off. \"And second...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She pointed toward the center island. \"What do you mean by God Island?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked slightly. \"It’s exactly what you heard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned halfway and gestured lazily toward the horizon. \"The old Demon Gate Island has a new name.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia stared at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s now God Island,\" Garion continued calmly. \"The true base of God Gym.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia looked at him like she was trying to decide whether to punch him or not. \"You renamed it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded. \"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a deep breath. \"Do you know how crazy that sounds?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion shrugged lightly. \"It worked out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia threw both hands up. \"That’s not the point!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stepped closer again, her eyes flashing. \"Do you have any idea how many things happened while you were gone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion tilted his head. \"I monitored most of it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia stopped mid-rant. \"You what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smiled faintly. \"I wasn’t completely absent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia squinted at him. \"You let me fight a demonic dragon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded. \"You handled it well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s not the issue!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She jabbed a finger at his chest. \"You couldn’t send one message? One?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion looked down at her finger calmly. \"I was focused.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia clenched her fists. \"For a year?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded again. \"The thing I built required time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia crossed her arms tightly. \"What thing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion’s smirk widened slightly. \"You’ll see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia narrowed her eyes at him. \"You’re doing this on purpose.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion just smiled. \"Maybe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia frowned hard. \"Goddammit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He ignored her reaction and turned toward Sorien instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you for handling the dragon,\" Garion said casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien gave a small nod. \"Do not worry. It is our duty to eliminate demonic beings.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion glanced at the fallen dragon for a moment, then back at Sorien. \"So... what do you think about what Draconia has done?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone was relaxed, but his eyes were sharp. \"You heard what it said, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien nodded slowly. \"Yes. It admitted Draconia released it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression remained calm, but there was weight behind his words. \"It seems I must visit Draconia once more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion’s lips curved upward. \"Good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cracked his knuckles lightly. \"Can I join you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien raised an eyebrow slightly. \"You?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion shrugged. \"I want to see the bastard who dared to attack my faction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no smile now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien considered him for a moment, then nodded. \"Very well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before they could say anything more... \"I’m coming too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them looked at Dahlia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion blinked. \"You?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia crossed her arms. \"Yes. Me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion tilted his head. \"This might turn political.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia stepped closer. \"Don’t worry, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice was steady now. \"I also want to see my father’s face.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked toward the horizon where Draconia territory lay far away. \"After letting me down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her jaw tightened slightly. \"I want to see how furious he looks when he realizes I’m standing on the other side.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion studied her expression. \"You sure?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia met his eyes directly. \"I’m not running anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She let out a small breath. \"And honestly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint smirk appeared. \"It will be interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien watched the exchange quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion then laughed softly. \"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked between the two of them. \"Let’s pay Draconia a visit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien gave a short nod. He lifted one hand and a golden formation began to form beneath their feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lines of light spread outward in precise patterns, intersecting perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion looked down at it with interest. \"Is this a transportation array?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien answered calmly. \"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The formation grew brighter. Symbols rotated slowly along the edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do not intend to waste time traveling by air,\" Sorien continued. \"We will go directly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at both of them. \"And please keep your guard up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a brief pause. \"And try not to vomit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion blinked once. \"...Excuse me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien’s expression remained neutral. \"A lot of newcomers experience dizziness during long-range transport.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He added casually, \"Some vomit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia’s eyebrows twitched. \"You’re joking.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien did not smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked. \"Don’t worry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crossed his arms confidently. \"We’re body cultivators.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tapped his chest lightly. \"We won’t be vomiting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia straightened up. \"Yeah. We’ve been thrown into crazy training chambers. This is nothing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien nodded once. \"Very well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The formation began to hum louder. Golden light rose around them in a cylindrical barrier. \"Stand still.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, space stretched unnaturally. The sky disappeared. The air felt pulled sideways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion remained steady, posture relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia clenched her jaw but refused to close her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They appeared above the massive gates of the Draconia Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden formation faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion landed lightly on his feet. \"...Smooth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rolled his shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia landed next to him. She looked a little pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion glanced at her. \"You good?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia took a slow breath. \"I’m fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She swallowed once, trying to stabilize her balance. \"...It’s just... spinning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion smirked. \"Thought you said this was nothing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia shot him a glare. \"Shut up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien landed gracefully in front of them as if nothing had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Dahlia briefly. \"You handled it well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion looked around at the towering walls of Draconia. \"Nice entrance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien folded his hands behind his back. \"Ready?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia straightened her posture, the paleness fading quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes hardened. \"Yeah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion cracked his neck once. \"Let’s see how they explain this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1095,"2026-06-06T11:12:18.543Z",1,"novelbin.me","05c1b9f724f8fdae6c39c62934ca930642e0adab7993ce2cfe941fedc69729bd","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-79","heretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-chapter-428",613,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fheretic-trainer-the-gym-is-my-cultivation-method-cover.jpg"]
