    Chapter 3284 Words Alone Carry No Weight


    Since Hamish had said as much, Cloud said nothing further.


    On the contrary, Miya interjected anxiously, “They are all rtives of mine, Mr. Chevalier. This is my


    cousin, the son of my youngest uncle. Please make an exception this once.”


    “The son of your youngest uncle?” Surprise flooded Hamish, and he carefully studied Cloud for a


    moment.


    But still, he shook his head and murmured, “It’s not that I’m unwilling to make an exception, Miya.


    The thing is, this expedition is exceedingly dangerous. I’m not one with the final say. The team


    consists of a dozen people. It’s no use if I’m the only person agreeing to it. After all, cooperation is


    required throughout the journey. If we were to take them along, we’d have to spare part of our


    energy to protect them. No one would be willing to do that. But if the three of them could have the


    others concur by showing some sincerity, I wouldn’t object.”

    While saying that, he sounded somewhat conflicted. It was clear as day from his words that he


    merely wanted some incentive. However, he imed that it was the others who wanted it, making


    his greed evident.


    No sooner had Miya heard that than she understood his meaning and immediately offered, “I’m


    willing to pay five million spirit coins, Mr. Chevalier. What do you think?”


    Unexpectedly, Hamish shook his head and declined, “I’m afraid no amount of spirit coins will do,


    Miya. No one heading to the southern region with me is strapped for cash.”


    Upon learning that spirit coins would not work, Miya inexorably frowned because she could not offer


    anything else besides spirit coins, having no power to make any decisions about other resources.


    “If you don’t take the Teleportation Array to the southern region, Mr. Chevalier, do you have any


    other transportation?” Jared asked.


    “Why would we need other transportation? As cultivators, we can easily travel thousands of miles


    daily,” Hamish retorted airily.


    “That’s indeed true, Mr. Chevalier. However, traveling at a brisk pace takes a great toll on spiritual


    energy, making it necessary to rest and recharge mid-way. This is quite a waste of time. We have


    an airship and can take it all the way to the southern region. Not only will it save energy and time,


    but we’ll also be able to cultivate on the airship,” Jared stated.


    Hamish was briefly stunned before he eximed in disbelief, “You have an airship?”


    In response, Jared nodded. “Of course. We came here by airship.”


    “Words alone carry no weight. Let me have a look at the airship!” Hamish demanded. Jared cast


    Cloud a nce, upon which thetter nodded and walked out of the living room before taking his


    airship out.


    As Hamish stared at the airship in front of him, jubtion brimmed in his eyes. After he hadid eyes


    on it, his attitude visibly changed.


    “Miya, since they’re your rtives, coupled with my rtionship with your father, I have no reason


    not to make an exception this once. As for the others, you don’t need to worry about them. I’ll


    convince them.”


    He happily assented to Jared and the others joining his team. Seeing that, Jared could not help


    snickering. Nheless, there were far too many people like Hamish in the Ethereal Realm,


    prioritizing capabilities and interests.


    “In that case, thank you very much, Mr. Chevalier.”


    Having expressed her thanks, Miya got up to leave. When she walked past Jared, she could not


    resist taking another look at him, for she knew that she might never see him again in that lifetime


    after parting ways this time.


    Jared said nothing nor reacted in any way. He believed that having her forget him as soon as


    possible would be a relief to her. At the side, Kiara seemingly perceived something and saw Miya


    out.


    “Do you have some kind of rtionship with that guy, Miya? I noticed that you were looking at him


    differently,” Kiara asked.


    Smiling, Miya shook her head. “What kind of rtionship could I have with him? Not at all.”


    “Oh,e on! Are you taking me for a fool? In my opinion, not only do you two have some kind of


    rtionship, but you both must have been intimate,” Kiara dered confidently.
