Liran furrowed his brows while everyone around them kept doing what they were doing. Gravis and Liran were talking with their Spirits to keep the plans a secret. Liran couldn't be sure that there were no traitors in here or people that would sell information for Immortal Stones.

Liran grew nervous as he fell into thought. He had heard about Gravis' power, but he hadn't seen it. After all, ever since Liran had appeared, Gravis hadn't unleashed a single attack. Gravis had only helped Liran while he fought against Arthur.

Someone that could jump four levels couldn't exist, but Gravis had proven that he could. He had killed that one captain of the Burial Ground Sect, even if that captain was one of the weaker Cultivators at his level. Additionally, Surem had seen the fight between Gravis and the captain.

Yet, was Liran willing to bet such a huge sum of money on the words of his son and Gravis? If Liran had the money, he would have no qualms in giving Gravis 600,000 Immortal Stones to make him an Early Major Circulation Immortal. After all, Gravis was mighty. That much was sure.

But betting 300,000 Immortal Stones to make him a Late Minor Circulation Immortal? According to logic, Gravis would die 100% of the time, no matter whom he fought. However, could Gravis' power be judged by logic?

Liran looked at Gravis, who only looked emotionlessly at Liran. Whenever things became serious, Gravis reverted to a direct and emotionless attitude. He wasn't suppressing his emotions, but he didn't let them cloud his judgment. Efficiency and effectiveness were Gravis' main goals when it came to serious situations.

Liran sighed.

He wanted to bet on Gravis. His feelings also told him to bet on Gravis.

However, he couldn't place the last bit of his Sect's wealth on his emotions and what he wanted. That would be irresponsible.

"I'm sorry, but I can't," Liran said to Gravis. "I can't bet our last bit of wealth on a gamble."

"Can't you, or do you not want to?" Gravis asked evenly.

"I can't," Liran said. "I want to, but I can't risk the Sect's last bit of safe wealth." Liran's voice sounded like he had given up, and it was filled with regret.

Gravis slowly shook his head in disappointment.

When Liran saw Gravis' reaction, for some reason, he felt like he had made a huge mistake. He wasn't sure why, but it felt like he had missed something extremely crucial, something that could have changed his entire life.

However, even when Liran felt these emotions, he couldn't change his decision now. He had already committed to it.
