The Legendary Man Chapter 851
The Legendary Man Chapter 851-Chapter 851 I Killed Him
With a flick of his hand, Winston cut off a branch that was as thick as his arm.
At the elderly man’s question, he hastily spun on his heel and trotted over.
“Of course not, Mr. Quintus. Have you gotten your wires crossed again? We, the Mallory, and
Henderson families are all respectable families. Our ancestral locations can’t be made known to
outsiders. You were the one who agreed to the coboration this time, deciding that we’re only to
coborate when making a move. Otherwise, everyone is to keep to themselves. Do you not remember
that?”
In response, the elderly man shook his head slightly.
“No, I don’t. I said that?”
While saying that, the elderly man reached up and took the hat off his head.
Glowing white wisps of steam came into sight, and a gray braid a forearm’s length tumbled down.
The elderly man lifted an age-weather hand and scratched his head.
“I forgot all about that. Winston, how about I step down from being the patriarch and appoint you
instead?” he muttered, his gaze brimming with bafflement.
Standing at the side, Winston held the elderly man’s hat with both hands.
“You’ve already passed the position of patriarch to Ashton twenty years ago, Mr. Quintus. You can’t
appoint me now even if you want to do so.”
“I’ve already stepped down and appointed someone else?”
The elderly man was stunned at first before he reached out and pped his forehead.
He thenmented, “Look at my forgetfulness! Yes, you’re right. I did that. My memory is regressing
every single day.”
Winston stood at the side, not daring toment on that. He merely stood there silently and kept the
elderly manpany.
As an elder of the Leeson family in Doveston and a cultivator in the middle phase of Divine Realm, he
was exceedingly casual even when faced with the current patriarch of the Leeson family.
But when it came to the elderly man before him, he dared not show the slightest disrespect.
After all, the elderly man in front of him was none other than the previous patriarch of the Leeson
family, Quintus Leeson.
Quintus was already a hundred and twenty years old, a true immortal who spanned two centuries.
His cultivation level had already reached the advanced phase of Divine Realm, and he alone could
intimidate many respectable families and ancient sects within Chanaea. His capabilities were beyond
one’s imagination.
Verily, he was the true pir backing up the Leeson family in Doveston.
s, he still could not escape the aftereffects of the passing of time despite his high cultivation level
and astounding skills.
Thirty years ago, his brain started shrinking, and his memory gradually deteriorated.
Following that, the Leeson family sought out renowned doctors in the whole of Kingshinton. Regretfully,
none could provide a cure in the face of such irreversible brain damage.
If an ordinary person were to contract such a disease, he would have probably lost all reason after
about ten years and be an empty shell with no sanity.
Quintus, however, had managed to hold out for a whole thirty years, thanks to his high cultivation level.
Nheless, they all knew that the man had not much time left.
Right then, he might forget what he said a moment ago in the blink of an eye.
If they could not find an effective remedy, the Leeson family would lose a great backer entirely in the
near future.
“Winston.”
Getting to his feet, Quintus turned to Winston beside him and called out to thetter.
“Yes, Mr. Quintus?”
Winston hastened forward with the hat in his hands.
Snagging the hat, Quintus ced it on his head. The look in his eyes was contemtive, and it
seemed as though he had recalled something.
“I remember you previously told me that a member of the Whitley family fled from Yaleview? Was there
news afterward?”
“No, Mr. Quintus. All eight respectable families have been looking for Joshua for over a month, but we
only learned that he headed to Merania after leaving. Apart from that, there hadn’t been any other
news.”
Upon hearing that, Quintus turned to Winston.
“Merania? Why would he go there? Those of the Whitley family like going to Delisgar Ridge. I used to
go over to Remdik a lot when I was young, and I even bumped into them there.”
After saying that, he took the hatchet from thetter’s hands.
“Huh? Who cut this tree? It so happens that my great-grandson wants to build a new house. This is
perfect for a beam!”
At the sight of Quintus fawning all over the ancient tree, everyone exchanged a nce and smiled
helplessly.
Oh well, he has again forgotten everything that happened just a while ago.
Winston stared at the elderly man’s back, his brows creased deeply. Subsequently, something
seemingly urred to him, and he trotted forward.
“Mr. Quintus, you said you bumped into those from the Whitley family in Delisgar Ridge when you were
young?”
“The Whitley family? What Whitley family? Is there anyone with the family name of Whitley in our
vige?” Quintus asked nkly, his eyes pinned on Winston.
“Never mind.”
Winston chuckled bitterly, not daring to ask further.
But when Quintus swung the hatchet once more, the man darted off and disappeared into the forest.
I’ve got to inform Ashton immediately that the Whitley family had been to Delisgar Ridge. This might be
the central clue to finding Joshua!
…
It was the middle of the night then.
In the Eastern Armymander’s tent south of River Onxy in Horbah, Hayes sat by the stove with
bandages around his body, reading a report.
Beside the stove was a few baked potatoes with wisps of fragrance wafting off them.
When he had flipped to the final page, he rubbed his eyes at longst. No sooner had he reached out
to snag one of the baked potatoes before him than he flicked his wrist slightly. At once, a pistol slid
down his cuff to fall into his hand.
Unfortunately, a dagger was already pressed against his throat by then.
“Your reaction was too slow, Tiger.”
The instant Hayes heard the calm voice behind him, he hurriedly put the pistol away.
“You know my cultivation level isn’t high, so don’t scare me like that anymore, Mr. Goldstein.”
Toying with the dagger in his hand, Jonathan sat down by the stove.
“Eastern Army is a modernized technological force, so itsmander’s martial capabilities don’t need
to be all that high. Just improve your cultivation gradually. Don’t be too hasty, or it’d be bad if you were
to enter a frenzied state,” he cautioned smilingly.
Then, he asked, “So, how are things? Do you have problems adapting from suddenly being the army
commander of a cutting-edge force like Eastern Army when you were previously a member of tens of
thousands of local troops in Lumonburg?”
Grinning widely, Hayes dered, “Everything is good in terms of the job. I’m still learning about those
cutting-edge weapons, but using them is no longer a problem. The most substantial change, I suppose,
is my mental state. Eastern Army is too unique, and the pressure is too intense.”
By the time he said that, the smile on his face had turned bitter.
“There’s Remdik in the north, Jetroina in the east, and Yaleview Army in the southwest. This is
downright petrifying. It’s only now that I realize the amount of pressure Karl had been under. If I had
been stationed in Doveston for such a long time, I might have done something even more extreme than
he did,” hemented.
As he spoke, he surreptitiously kept an eye on Jonathan’s expression.
Jonathan regarded Hayes icily, his eyes nketed with ayer of frost.
“Hmm, you want to help your predecessor out when you’ve just been given the title of Prince of
Diyouli? You’d best not y with fire, Tiger. Some things can never be changed! Where is Karl?”
“I killed him!” Hayes shouted, cing his hands behind his back with his head held high and chest
puffed forward.
A powerful surge of spiritual energy emanated from Jonathan. In a sh, Hayes fell to the ground on
his knees, unable to withstand the pressure for even a second.
“Repeat that again!”
