LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Lyvia spoke with the tone of a noble housewife chatting idly with her husband while cooking.

Her meaning was clear: go take care of your business for now and just remember to come back for dinner later.

But to Hugh Garner, this scene was like beholding a long-lost masterpiece of the world.

He was astonished to the extreme.

Most importantly, Hugh Garner could not believe that Amir had actually been scared mad by Jun Chester.

Just how did Jun Chester accomplish this?

As before, the elder kneeling in the rain and kowtowing to Jun Chester for mercy was Amir!

One of the four great Garners of Garner Stonehouse!

A living legend of cultivation!

Looking across the entire cultivation world, the number of people who could defeat Amir was few and far between!

Moreover… to actually scare an old devil like Amir mad?

Could it be that Jun Chester’s strength had advanced another step?

Impossible!

Even if Jun Chester’s strength advanced ten more steps, he still could not have scared Amir mad!

But… how else to explain the scene before his eyes?

Just as Hugh Garner was thinking this, Jun Chester did not pay Amir any more attention. Instead, he called back across the rain to Lyvia at the kitchen door,

“I’ll go to Dragon Hill after eating the noodles.”

Lyvia smiled and nodded.

“Alright, go take care of your business first. I’ll go make the noodles.”

Then, through the rain, Lyvia said to Hugh Garner,

“Old Sir, come have a bite with us later.”

Hugh Garner opened his mouth in shock, too stunned to speak a word.

It wasn’t until Lyvia had turned and entered the kitchen that he came back to his senses. Staring unblinkingly at Jun Chester, he asked doubtfully,

“What on earth is going on?”

Jun Chester asked back,

“What do you mean, what’s going on?”

Hugh Garner looked warily at Amir kneeling on the ground.

“How did he become like this?”

Jun Chester smiled faintly.

“Didn’t I just say, I scared him into this state.”

Hugh Garner still did not believe it.

But Jun Chester’s next action made Hugh Garner have no choice but to believe.

Jun Chester reached out and took a raindrop from the eaves. With a flick of his finger, he shot it at Amir’s heart.

The raindrop entered Amir’s heart vein.

In that instant, Amir quieted down.

Seeing this, Hugh Garner was so shocked he nearly cried.

Amir’s heart vein had been severed so easily by Jun Chester?

Jun Chester said indifferently,

“I just crippled him.”

Hugh Garner was thunderstruck!

He just… crippled… Amir… so easily?

Jun Chester added,

“For an old thing like Amir to throw my sworn sister into a well, letting him die would be too easy. Anyway, didn’t you always want to become stronger? Amir is about your age, his cultivation can be of use to you!”

At this point, the way Hugh Garner looked at Jun Chester had changed from a master looking at his disciple to a disciple looking at his master.

He was shocked beyond words!

Yet Hugh Garner was still completely confused!

In just a few days of not seeing him, how did Jun Chester become so powerful?

This was no longer a person… this was… a god!

At this time, Jun Chester had already returned to sit on the stone bench under the canopy in the yard. Looking at Hugh Garner, he smiled and said,

“Come, sit.”

Hugh Garner strode over as if flying and sat down next to Jun Chester. Looking him up and down once more, he realized that Jun Chester’s temperament had clearly undergone some transformation compared to a few days ago.

Even Jun Chester’s height… seemed to have grown somewhat.

Just what was going on here?

Jun Chester looked amusedly at Hugh Garner.

“What are you staring at me for? Don’t recognize me anymore?”

Hugh Garner shook his head.

“I don’t recognize you anymore.”

Jun Chester shrugged and asked again,

“Why did you come looking for me and want me to leave with you?”

Hugh Garner looked once more at Amir by the gate. With extremely complicated emotions, he sat down beside Jun Chester.

“Answering that now seems meaningless!”

Jun Chester thought for a moment, then asked,

“You wouldn’t have rushed here in such a panic because of Garner Stonehouse, right?”

At the mention of Garner Stonehouse, Hugh Garner still looked panicked. He couldn’t help but explain,

“A few days ago, I had just returned home from Dirtmouth when I encountered Amir at my door. He had come looking for me. That day, he just spat some tea at my leg and pierced straight through it!”

Jun Chester asked in puzzlement,

“Why did he injure you?”

Hugh Garner smiled bitterly.

“The people of Garner Stonehouse never explain their actions, but I’m quite sure he came looking for me mostly because of the Map Stone our Garner family has!”

“Moreover, it’s also greatly related to you!”

Jun Chester asked doubtfully,

“What does it have to do with me?”

Hugh Garner sucked in a cold breath and hoarsely explained,

“James Garner entered Ethereal Core at twenty, but after that, he never progressed another step forward. All these years, Garner Stonehouse has been looking for a way to break through James Garner’s bottleneck at Ethereal Core!”

“There are three methods: First, use Cradleland Chapel to refine a blood pill to help James Garner break through; Second, decipher the cultivation methods on the Map Stone to find a way to break through; Third is you – because you are one of the rare Pyrokinetics in the world. They will flay you and extract your marrow to refine a pure yang pill for James Garner to consume!”

Upon hearing this, Jun Chester just faintly murmured “Oh”.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

Then he looked at the old well not far away and hesitated before asking Hugh Garner,

“When was this well put here?”

Hugh Garner looked puzzled.

“This well?”

Jun Chester nodded calmly.

“Yes, this well. I’m very curious about it now.”

Hugh Garner asked doubtfully,

“Why? Shouldn’t you be worried about Garner Stonehouse catching you right now?”

Jun Chester snorted in laughter.

“No need to worry. On the contrary, I haven’t placed Garner Stonehouse in my mind at all.”

Hugh Garner’s expression was grave as he said,

“But Garner Stonehouse has placed you in their minds, especially after you defeated James Garner! They will stop at nothing to kill you. Next, they will spare no cost to take your life!”

Having said this, Hugh Garner looked at the old well not far away.

“As for this well, there’s nothing special about it. The well walls are made of Nanite Stone, a fortune your mother left for you. But now it seems that fortune is a drop in the bucket for you!”

Jun Chester looked at Hugh Garner with complicated emotions.

It seemed Hugh Garner was completely unaware of the secrets hidden within this old well.

Jun Chester asked again,

“You said the well walls are made of Nanite Stone. Have you gone down before?”

Hugh Garner nodded.

“I’ve gone down before. There’s not much Nanite Stone, and other than the water, there’s just more water inside.”

Jun Chester grew more suspicious.

Since Hugh Garner had gone down this well before, how come he didn’t discover the endless spiritual energy within?

Too strange.

Just then, Hugh Garner suddenly slapped his forehead.

Abruptly he said,

“Oh no! Got too caught up chatting and forgot about an important matter!”

Saying so, Hugh Garner rushed into the living room connected to the dining room. Looking blankly at the ordinary dining table there, he was beyond grief.

Jun Chester walked in.

“What’s the matter?” he asked.

Hugh Garner was frantic with anxiety.

“The Tiancan Wu silk! The Tiancan Wu silk is gone!”

Jun Chester narrowed his eyes.

“You mean that black cloth spread on the table?”

Hugh Garner was going out of his mind.

“That’s no ordinary black cloth. It’s the most important item your mother left for you. Made into armor, it can truly withstand lightning and fire!”

“Back then when I learned of it, I intended to take it back to the Garner family for safekeeping, but was worried Garner Stonehouse’s people would steal it. So I always left that black cloth here!”

“I never expected I’d make such a foolish mistake, and now the treasure has changed hands. It really was stolen by Garner Stonehouse’s people!”

Only now did Jun Chester’s heart stir slightly.

Garner Stonehouse, the ones who injured me and stole from me?

Just then, Lyvia came in carrying two steaming hot bowls of noodles.

Jun Chester smiled and looked towards Hugh Garner.

“Then let’s eat first. After the meal, go to Dragon Hill to take back what’s ours, and while we’re at it, cripple them.”

Hugh Garner was beyond grief.

“Whether it’s Bradford or James Garner, if they have the Tiancan Wu silk protecting them, you won’t be able to beat them! That Tiancan Wu silk, even the Devil Slayer can’t damage it one bit!”
