Chapter 1486 Timothy's Secret Arrangements

Upon entering the study, Rocky instantly saw Timothy standing in front of several portraits, seemingly lost in thought. He also took a look at those magnificent portraits, and it didn't take long before his eyes were fixed on one of them. On the portrait was no other than the one who taught him the Thousand-star Swordsmanship—the former leader of the Sword Spirit Sect, Darius.

"Master Timothy!" Rocky greeted the sect leader as he cupped his hands.

"You're finally here. Have a seat." Timothy turned around and pointed him to the couch.

Rocky nodded and immediately did as told.

"Do you know why I summoned you today?" Timothy asked upon sitting across Rocky.

"I have a hunch, but I'm not really sure about it," Rocky answered with honesty.

"Then go ahead and make a guess," Timothy insisted.

"I heard that Miss Hannah is going to hold a martial arts competition that will determine the warrior that she would marry. I'm assuming that it has something to do with that, right?" Rocky asked straightforwardly.

I felt so sorry for her, so I can't stomach the thought that she has to offer herself to others just for the sake of the Sword Spirit Sect. At least if you win, she can still get her freedom after she marries you. Now, are you still up for it?" Timothy asked with a stern voice.

"Does Miss Hannah know about this?" Rocky asked in the moment of his hesitation.

"Not yet. And don't let her know first. After all, it's still uncertain whether you can win the competition or not. You can tell her after you win," Timothy said in a bit of a gloomy tone.

"I see. I will do my best to win. For Miss Hannah's sake too..." Rocky finally agreed.

"Thank you. I will remember everything that you have done for the Sword Spirit Sect and my family as well," Timothy declared gently.

"I know I haven't been in the Sword Spirit City for a long time, but with all the trust that you are bestowing me, I promise that I won't let you down," Rocky stated with a burning determination.

"All right. I expect you to do your best. You may leave now. I will send people to inform you once the arrangements are done," Timothy said.
