Chapter 1209

Flora wasn't all that familiar with Martial World, but she trusted Connor's judgment when it came to choosing a family for her; they had to be decent.

Sure enough, the next day, the Gilbert family sent someone to fetch Flora. Their approach was nothing short of cautious. News of Flora swiftly defeating Lillian had spread like wildfire across Martial World, and it seemed this prodigy had quite the reputation for a fiery temper. The Gilberts were on edge, worried that if Flora got peeved, she might go off on them too.

But to their surprise, she was just a bit reserved, yet incredibly polite, without a hint of the typical genius arrogance. This made the Gilbert family warm up to her even more.

"Miss Flora, feel free to stay another day. Tomorrow morning, we'll take you to Martial World," they said with utmost respect.

"You go with them to Martial World, and I'll catch up with you later," Connor said, sitting cross-legged on the carpet as he packed her personal clothes into a bag, placing them neatly in the suitcase.

"Okay." Flora nodded, her eyes fixed on him. A thought crossed her mind, "Connor, once I'm there, can I come back whenever I want?"
