Chapter 673: Chapter 223 The Number One in the World (Please Subscribe)_3
After all, Catherine Carter said that she hadn’t heard any news about him for the next eighty years.
Now, this isolated Upper State Prison had encountered such a formidable old man, and the tiline seed to match up.
Being exiled to Sinless City and then disappearing without a trace made sense.
After all, Sinless City wasn’t as bustling back then as it is now; at that ti, it truly was “the edge of the world” forgotten by the Federation.
Thinking again about Lord Nine Brown’s attitude toward this man, and the legendary martial skill of the Shepherd Thirty-two Way Wandering Body Palm he had given… all of a sudden, every clue seed to fit together.
Perhaps Lord Nine Brown also had so kind of ntor-apprentice relationship with him.
The old man, listening to Leonard Churchill speak, wasn’t surprised and said, “That’s right. I sent a ssage that I didn’t want to be disturbed, and they probably wouldn’t have told you.”
At this mont, Leonard Churchill also finally understood why Master rlin and Lord Nine Brown had been so reticent about this person before.
The old man then seed to reflect on sothing and said with a hint of emotion, “Since Nine Brown has passed the Tyrant Body to you, it seems he recognizes you quite a bit…”
As people grow old, thinking of acquaintances from the past always brings an unexplainable sense of lancholy.
“…”
Leonard Churchill didn’t respond to that remark, after all, the process of acquiring the Tyrant Body Secret thod from Lord Nine Brown was complicated.
One aspect was the half-piece of copper, and then there was the relationship with Seven Brown.
Initially, he thought it would be easier to speak with a familiar connection.
But unexpectedly, the old man’s deanor suddenly changed, and he asked, “However… what makes you think I should teach you the Breathing thod just because you gave a few bottles of wine?”
Leonard Churchill’s expression remained unchanged.
The inhabitants of this underground cave were sowhat psychologically abnormal.
The old man continued, “I can give you so high-Quality Fighting Intent Crystals, enough to make you a fortune if sold outside. It could even help you leave this prison alive…”
Now was not the ti for pleasantries. Leonard Churchill declared resolutely, “Senior. I ventured here taking risks, with no other desire than to seek the Breathing thod. I request your guidance.”
That was indeed the case.
For him, wealth held no allure.
As for getting out, Leonard Churchill already had so plans in mind.
The prison guards had brought food again these past few days, and Leonard Churchill had observed that apart from a Strong Kill, it was possible to create chaos, replace one of the guards, and have a chance to escape.
But he would have to wait until he had the strength to fool them or be able to defeat those keenly aware Mutation Monsters.
With enough food, Leonard Churchill was not in the slightest bit anxious.
The old man, still not agreeing, asked coldly again, “You want to learn… why must I teach you?”
“Legacy.”
Leonard Churchill said it outright.
He had thought before that since this senior could spend decades in these dark relics-filled underground caves, he obviously had no interest in worldly temptations like power, money, or pleasures.
Leonard Churchill felt that no matter what he offered, he couldn’t move such a being who had reached the pinnacle of the current era.
Those wines were rely enough to get a few words from the other party.
Now it seed, most likely it was out of respect for Lord Nine Brown and Master rlin.
But for these seniors, Leonard Churchill thought all that could truly be offered was “sentintal righteousness.”
He continued, “Senior, the Card Master Civilization also needs soone to continue the legacy.”
The Gluttony Secret thod is not sothing just anyone can learn.
At least, no one is as perfectly attuned as Leonard Churchill, capable of high affinity with nearly all Elents.
Even Abel managed to only utilize a part of the effects of this secret thod.
Leonard Churchill believed that the senior’s willingness to ask rather than outright refuse already indicated his stance. He simply wanted to hear what others thought of the secret thod.
Even the seven days before were a test.
In such an environnt, anyone without a firm will would have already beco twisted and corrupted.
Leonard Churchill, seeing the old man still noncommittal, proceeded, “Now, the Old Continent is undergoing major developnt with many significant discoveries. Countless ancient legacies have been uncovered, and there is great hope for breaking through the Super Tier… I also wish to use the ‘Fifty-two Demonic God Secret Skills’ to see the higher landscapes of this world.”
The senior, probably not updated about the outside world for a long ti, Leonard Churchill didn’t know how strong he was but assud he hadn’t broken through the seventh tier.
He reckoned that this information might be attractive to this high-level elite.
Leonard Churchill added, “If possible, I would also seek guidance on ‘Intention’ from the senior. I have had the fortune to be instructed by Master rlin, who says that it is crucial for a card master’s cultivation.”
Upon hearing this, the old man clearly showed surprise, “rlin has even told you about this?”
Leonard Churchill said, “Yes. Master rlin said ‘Intention’ might be crucial for a card master to break through the Super Tier, potentially able to suppress the mutations after advancing.”
“Heh.”
The old man let out a light laugh at this revelation.
But a sharp gleam flashed through his murky eyes montarily, not easily noticed.
Nobody knew that his arduous cultivation here was precisely to verify this point.
Now, he knew the result!
….
The truth was just as Leonard Churchill had surmised.
Actually, on the first day when Barre Shepherd realized that he had the Tyrant Body and a special Profession Card, he guessed that this suddenly visiting young man had a significant connection with his two old friends.
At that mont, he had already given an opportunity.
Being approved by two old friends was already testant to good character.
Braving the dangers of coming to Upper State Prison showed a firmness in seeking martial arts, which was evident.
The ability to stay unchanged for seven days without ntal distortion also set him apart from ordinary people.
Most importantly, Barre Shepherd had never t anyone so perfectly suited for the Gluttony Secret thod before.
