After leaving the McLaughlin family’s vi, L saw a lonely figure walking ahead of him, with his right arm hanging limply and powerless.


    Hearing footsteps behind him, Emerson turned around and his face changed instantly. “Are you here to kill me?” he asked angrily, staring at L with seriousness.


    “No,” L shook his head.


    “Ha-ha, why? You’re so fierce that I thought you were chasing after me to take my life.”


    In the next second, he looked at L with a hint of sadness in his eyes.


    Thinking about his disabled right arm filled Emerson’s heart with grief and anger!


    L raised an eyebrow and felt his emotions. He smiled slyly and asked, “What are your ns? Are you still nning on harming them?”


    As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of the vi.


    Emerson shook his head, “I have no ns. I can’t go back to the mountain anymore! My master thinks myprehension is too low and kicked me out of it! As for harming him? Ha-ha… it’s not interesting anymore…”Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Upon hearing this, L was surprised and speechless. Emerson looked about thirty years old but had already reached the peak of Dark Forcete stage! This kind of strength was already very rare, wasn’t it?


    He was actually kicked out by his master because of lowprehension?


    “Who is your master anyway?” L couldn’t help but ask incredulously.


    “Master Osvaldo Swanson from Buckingline Mountain! My master not only excels in various mystical arts but also medicine; he is also a renowned Grandmaster powerhouse in Priocia!”


    Emerson spoke proudly about his own master but then had a dejected look on his face again.


    Being kicked out by one’s own teacher was one thing that made him feel ashamed more than anything else.


    This was also why earlier when L said that Emerson’s strength was “mess,” it made him so angry.


    Because deep down inside himself – he believed this too…


    Thinking about how he now had one useless arm left made Emerson feel even more hopeless; feeling like this will be how things will be for him forever now.


    “Master Osvaldo Swanson? Never heard of him…” L shook her head expressionlessly as he replied.


    If Jay, the self-proimed top yer in Kreanford, were here now, he would surely recognize the name of this “Master Osvaldo.” But L was never part of the martial arts circle before, so he had never heard of him!


    “What?” Emerson was proud to mention his master but was surprised when L said he had never heard of him. “Are you insulting me? Insulting my master?” He asked angrily.


    “No, I really haven’t heard of him,” L shrugged and then looked at Emerson with a thought. “Since you have nowhere else to go, why not follow me from now on?”


    “Follow you? Why should I? You’ve already crippled me!” Emersonined bitterly. Feeling his right armpletely powerless except for excruciating pain made tears flow down his face uncontrobly.


    Seeing such a big man crying so easily made L feel awkward. “What if I could heal you?” He asked.


    “Heal me even though I’m already crippled? If you can heal me, not only will I follow you but also worship you as my teacher!” Emerson didn’t believe it.


    “Okay,” L nodded and grabbed Emerson’s right hand next second while channeling dragon energy into his body through the acupoint on his palm.


    Emerson felt warmth spread throughout his entire arm and all pain disappeared! Not only that but all eight extraordinary meridians that were blocked before were opened one by one by those streams of heat!


    After about ten minutes or so, L let go of him. “Alright then move around and see how it feels.”


    Emerson shook his arm and found out that not only did it fully recover but also became stronger than ever before! And somehow he broke through to Transmutation Force realm too?


    “This… I broke through to Transmutation Force realm too?! Thank you sir! From today onwards, you are my savior who gave me a new life! My lord is always first in my heart!” Overwhelmed with joy and gratitude caused tears flowed again from eyes red with excitement while kneeling down towards L.


    L rolled his eyes thinking this guy cried over everything didn’t he?


    “Never mind about the mentor, as long as you’re willing to work for me in the future,” L waved his hand and said solemnly. “But remember, if I can enhance your strength, I can also destroy you! If I ever find out that you’ve betrayed me one day, the consequences will be dire!”


    Emerson was a few years older than him so he didn’t want to take on an apprentice himself. There were some things that he couldn’t handle directly but could let Emerson solve them for him. Thetter had a good understanding of ultism and was a strong Transmutation Force practitioner, making him very suitable to be L’s “ck glove.”


    “Mr. Willis, rest assured that I swear here today: if I ever betray you, may heaven strike me with five thunderbolts!” Emerson said seriously.


    After L and Emerson left for a while, Philip who had just finished fighting with Kristina finally ran out of the vi with scratches all over his face trying to find Emerson’s whereabouts.


    That was… his son!


    However, there was no trace of him at all.


    …


    On their way home, L went to the pharmacy and grabbed a big bag of various herbs. After breaking through to Uppecia realm level, he found that besides gaining ess to “Earth Pulse,” another part of his memory had awakened – alchemy! Of course at this point in time he could only refine several low-level elixirs but they should still be valuable goods in secr society.


    Considering that he would needrge amounts of money for future cultivation paths; L decided to make money by refining elixirs. Of course he wouldn’t personally go out but nned on having Emerson do it instead while hiding behind-the-scenes making big bucks without drawing attention from Nora who fell asleep early.


    After coaxing Nora into sleep, L went into the kitchen ready start refining elixirs using sand pots since there wasn’t any specialized equipment avable yet. Fortunately, the current refinement process only required low-level herbs so it didn’t require high-quality tools either.


    However, Mason called just when he was about get started.


    “What’s up brother-inw? Do you have some free time?” Mason asked with a smile.


    “What do you want?” L replied.


    “Nothin’ much, I just wanted us both go grab dinner together. I also have something else for ya.” Mason said excitedly.


    Upon hearing this, L rolled his eyes. “What’s the point of going out to eat? I already ate. I have to stay home with Nora, what am I supposed to do out sote?”


    On the other end of the phone, Mason couldn’t help but feel exasperated. He thought to himself that L was really a doting father…


    “Come on, brother-inw. Is my niece asleep? Here’s the thing:st night you were amazing and saved us from disaster. A lot of my brothers want to meet you and sit down with you for a serious talk.”


    “Give me some face here,” Mason continued persuading.


    “I know you have to take care of Nora, so we waited until now just for you.”


    “And all my brothers are here waiting too…” Mason negotiated.


    L heard this and couldn’t help but feel speechless.


    But since Mason had said it like that, he really couldn’t refuse such a generous offer.


    “Fine then, where are you guys at? I’lle over in a bit!”
