Chapter 761 Another Rank Above Grandmaster
“Str. are you asleep Alex asked after knocking on the door
Just as the question lett hus mouth, the door swung open and the dignified looking old man steppedout He strokes his beard before giving Alex a onor over. Young man, why are you visit Late at night?
Mex noticed the sleeping boy through the door gap, so he lowered his voice and asked, “Sir, may I talkto
you in private
With that he led the old man to the study.
Alex tilled a cup of hot tea and brought it to the latter before asking, “Sir, are you a Grandmaster?”
He had chosen not to beat around the bush and asked the question that had been plaguing his mind.
However, the older man did not answer him right away. Instead, he picked up the cup of tea and sippedit
“I have been a Grandmaster for over thirty years”
His reply confirmed Alex’s earlier guess, but the latter still found it hard to believe.
When the old man saw the surprised look on Alex’s face, a chuckle escaped his mouth “Young man.you’re also talented to be this powerful in the mundane world. However, many young talented peoplelike you exist within the secret forces. They are also second-phase Masters despite merely being at thetender age of twenties. There are also many elderly ones who are much more powerful than I am”
His utterance left Alex flabbergasted Right then, a thought popped into his mind, and he asked, “Couldthere be another rank above Grandmaster? Sir, have you seen anyone like that?”novelbin
Ordinary people who were capable of gaining Mortal Force were a rare sight. Only one in a million wascapable of becoming a Master.
Alex had only seen one person advancing into the Grandmaster rank from Master, and that person wasthe old man in front of him He believed, without doubt, that the old man could take him down with a
single move.
I’m glad that I didn’t hurt the little boy back then. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be speaking to me so calmlynowe
After putting down the cup in his hand, a solemn look crept upon the old man’s face. He then hesitatedfor a while before saying. “You’ll know it when you become a Grandmaster yourself.”
It was an ambiguous answer from the old man. Maybe it’s a secret related to the secret forces, so hedoesn’t wish to
tell me about it.
At that moment, Alex could acutely sense how weak he was. The power he thought he had wasnothing but a speck of dust to another.
Only when he was mighty would he be able to protect those he wanted to. A fire began burning inAlex’s chest, and over time, it blazed brighter and brighter.
In the outskirts of Nebula City, Felix was carrying the unconscious Uriah on his back while Yona trailedbehind fum with a pale face as she pressed down on the spot where Alex had plunged the dagger into.
They had been full of confidence when they came to Nebula City, thinking that they would be able to kill
Alex
Yet, such a miserable situation befell them. Her grandfather was unconscious from his severe injury.Even if he were to recover, there was no way he could exact his revenge on Alex again.
As for Yona herself, she was far too weak. Thus, it was unlikely that she would be able to take revengeon Alex in this life of hers. In that case, she would rather choose death.
“So you want revenge?” came a voice that traveled into Yona’s ears.
Instinctively, she uttered a determined reply, “Of course. I would rather die if I couldn’t kill Alex.”
Then, once those words left her mouth, she realized something was amiss. Immediately, she snappedher head in the direction of the voice.
In her line of sight was a white-haired woman in white clothes, her face concealed with a piece offabric. Still, those alluring eyes told Yona that she must have an ethereal countenance under the veil.
“Then be my apprentice.”
