CH 52

In the patriarch’s tower, Almos gave Roderick a meaningful glance before slowly standing up from his seat.

He said, “If this is the case, there’s no point for us to stay in Li Fire Sect anymore.”

“We’ll be making a move.”

After saying that, Almos directly led Jerry and walked towards the door.

Seeing that the two of them were preparing to leave, Roderick hurriedly put on an unwilling look.

“Elder Almos, there’s no need to hurry. We can stay and have a meal.”

“There’s no need.”

After saying these words, Almos immediately pulled Jerry along, then left Li Fire Sect without looking back.

Seeing the two of them disappear from his sight, Roderick then only suddenly said to Natasha.

“Quick, go take a look inside the solitary confinement room. Has Lin Lei returned yet?”

“If he has returned, hurry up and invite him back here.”

Roderick’s expression was incomparably solemn.

“Why me?”

Natasha pointed at herself, stunned.

“Stop the nonsense, my good daughter. Hurry up and go.”

“Also apologize to him for offending Lin Lei previously.”

Roderick said with a solemn look on his face.

Only now did Natasha nod helplessly, and then walk towards the direction of the solitary confinement room.

…

Within the solitary confinement room.

“Drip! Drip!”

“Congratulations to the host for cultivating the basic magics 40,000 times!”

“Congratulations to the host for acquiring the mystic ability: Shadow Charge Obliteration!”

Lin Lei slowly put away the flames in his right hand.

A hint of surprise flashed through his forehead.

The method to unleash this mystic ability had already appeared in Lin Lei’s mind.

Through the system’s explanation, Lin Lei knew that this mystic ability called Shadow Charge Obliteration was an ultimate killing technique of the ancient fiend gods.

After unleashing it, one would be able to increase the strength of one’s entire body by ten times in a short period of time!

Furthermore, the power cpuld be compressed by nine times!

It could be said that this was an extremely terrifying skill!

Right now, Lin Lei had broken through to the sage level. Although he was only at the first rank of the sage level, with the king-class peak level weapon, the sword of Damocles, Lin Lei would be able to put up a fight.

And now, with the shadow charge obliteration, Lin Lei’s battle-power had significantly increased by another level.

He had already provoked the four great families. According to Lin Lei’s original plan, if the four great families really came knocking on his door, at most, he would just use the dark elf’s evasion spell and leave calmly.

But now that he had the shadow charge obliteration ability, Lin Lei had another choice.

Before the four great families came knocking on his door, if he could quickly raise the levels of his power, and let Damocles’ level surpass that of a king, coupled with the shadow charge obliteration ability, he wouldn’t have any fear at all even if a sage expert came knocking on his door.

It wouldn’t even be impossible for him to wipe out the four great families!

Just as Lin Lei was in deep thought, a female voice suddenly rang out from outside the solitary confinement room.

“Lin Lei, are you in there?”

Lin Lei followed the voice and saw that Natasha was dressed in a short black dress. Her beautiful face, coupled with her voluptuous figure, she had her white hair tied up with ribbons into a ponytail.

“What is it?”

Lin Lei’s expression didn’t change at all.

Natasha’s little nose twitched, and she said, “Patriarch has something to ask of you. Come with me to the patriarch tower.”

Linley raised his eyebrow, and said, “I have something to do right now. What exactly is it that the patriarch wants? You can just tell me right now.”

“How can you behave in such manner?”

Hearing Lin Lei’s words, Natasha instantly grew angry from feeling embarrassed.

“Lin Lei, don’t think that just because you have the protection of the Master of Ultimate Sword, you can be so arrogant!”

“This is an important matter concerning senior master of the ultimate sword. You’d better behave!”

Lin Lei’s eyes narrowed slightly.

And then, a hint of an interesting smile appeared on Lin Lei’s lips as he asked Natasha, “You actually know about Master of Ultimate Sword?”

Natasha looked at Lin Ley who looked like an idiot.

“Aren’t you just spouting nonsense? Right now, the reputation of the Master of Ultimate Sword has already spread far and wide throughout the empire.”

When Natasha said the words ‘Master of Ultimate Sword’, her eyes couldn’t help but reveal a hint of adoration.

Natasha adored experts to begin with, and not only had the master of the ultimate sword trampled the eldest son of the Rosette family to death, he had even injured the Duke of the Rosette with a single blow.

Such a powerful master of the ultimate sword had become the person whom Natasha adored the most.

After Natasha finished speaking, she frowned as she looked at Lin Lei. “Why would a peerless genius like Master of Ultimate Sword choose a dull blockhead like you?”

For a moment, Lin Lei couldn’t help but not know what sort of expression he should have on his face.

Was this a compliment or a reprimand?

However, Lin Lei was rather puzzled as to why Natasha felt that he had something to do with Master of Ultimate Sword.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Lei finally understood.

It should be because he had attacked Natasha in the patriarch tower the last time that Natasha had misunderstood him.

Lin Lei slowly shook his head. “Don’t worry about how the master of the ultimate sword has taken a liking to me. In any case, I only know that he definitely hasn’t taken a liking to you.”

“You b*stard!”

Natasha bit her red lips tightly as she said angrily.

How could Lin Lei, after all these years, still speak so harshly?!

“Perhaps the master of the ultimate sword hasn’t seen me. If he has, he may have abandoned you.”

Lin Lei felt rather amused.

I was the master of the ultimate sword that you spoke of. How could I not know?

Thus, he couldn’t be bothered to continue chatting with Natasha. Lin continued, “Didn’t you say that Patriarch had something to ask of me? Why aren’t you bringing me over quickly?”

Natasha let out a soft snort. “Since that’s the case, then come with me.”

And then, Linley followed Natasha towards the direction of the patriarch tower.

“Yes, Lin Lei.”

Suddenly, Natasha said.

“What now?”

Lin Lei frowned. Why was Natasha so troublesome?

Natasha pursed her red lips tightly, her hands clutching the hem of her dress. After hesitating for a moment, she finally spoke.

“Last time…”

“Last time, I went a bit too far…”

“I’m sorry. I apologize to you. Please don’t take it to heart.”

After speaking, Natasha felt as though her face was burning.

This was the first time since Natasha was born that she had apologized to someone.

Over the years, under Roderick’s tutelage, as well as Natasha herself, she had grown quite a bit. When she thought back to what she had said to Lin Lei, she felt herself being extremely immature.

“What did you say?”

Lin Lei said calmly, as though he hadn’t heard her clearly.

“I… I said what had happened previously, I’m sorry…”

Before Natasha could finish speaking, Lin Lai was already one step ahead of Natasha, walking directly into the patriarch tower.

“I know, I know.”

Watching Lin Lei leave, Natasha was so very angry.

This fellow must have done it on purpose!
