Chapter 140 From Bud’s self-persuasion

Walton’s been promoted!

The Great Sage… He’s become… The Great Sage?

Bud suddenly opened his eyes and rushed out of the room.

He looked at Walton, who was standing in the air, and his whole body was cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

This guy…

How did he do it?

Bud clenched his teeth and fists.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

Walton…

The so-called Great Demon King who was wandering in the world… did all kinds of bad things.

Countless wealthy families had put a bounty of ten million on his head.

But Bud knew that..

This guy’s bad deeds were actually only targeted at those wealthy families.

He not only often helped ordinary people, but also personally taught some talented children magic circuit, making them take on the responsibility of protecting their families.

He was actually a good person who cared about the world.

However, such a good person was as cold as a cold-blooded viper when facing the world of the wealthy families.

No one knew his specific background. Those who had interacted with him knew that his lifelong ambition was to learn the strengths of every family and then give back what he had learned in his life to society.

Of course, he also had another ambition, which was to break the monopoly of the magic families, so that ordinary people at the bottom could also learn magic circuit.

Honestly speaking, Bud respected this sort of person very much.

Because this sort of person had clear goals and ambitions.

And in order to achieve their goals, they would do anything!

For example, ten days ago, when Bud and William had faced Linley’s offer to become their master, they turned and left.

But Walton had stayed behind.

Bud wasn’t surprised at all.

Because he knew that Walton, for example, was someone who, in order to learn a mystic ability, was willing to kneel down to those arrogant Enchanter seniors.

They had long ago ignored the common customs of the world and had their own laws of survival.

Thus, when he had been in the ruins, in order to acquire that starcloud fruit, he had been willing to become Linley’s servant.

He was even willing to be a servant of Linley, let alone being Linley’s disciple?

As for matters of age…

Those who could accomplish great things in this world had one thing in common. They were all capable of being shameless enough. Even if one was younger than them, and if they had something worth learning, they could acknowledge him as their master.

“Thus, Walton made the right bet this time… acknowledging Linley as his master really helped him become a Great Sage…”

Bud’s gaze was filled with envy as he stared at Walton, who was standing in the air atop a rainbow cloud.

This sort of strange phenomenon was a unique phenomenon for the Great Sage.

“How did Linley do it? … I know his talent is extraordinary, however, for him to be so talented as a master… isn’t this unreasonable? He’s only twenty one years old… at this age, how can he do everything so perfectly?”

Bud was depressed.

As an old fellow who had lived for more than a thousand years, Bud had seen countless geniuses.

He had interacted with all sorts of peerless geniuses.

In fact, he had even met the previous Eastern Emperor Gandalf, and had even been fortunate enough to receive his magical guidance.

But…

This was the first time he had seen someone like Linley!

The more he thought about it, the more curious he became.

The more curious he became, the more he wanted to go to Linley’s residence and ask him about it.

But of course, all of this was due to jealousy.

He believed that his talent was far superior to Walton’s.

In addition, in his previous life, he had once advanced to the Great Sage Realm.

But because of some special reasons, he had fallen.

That was why he needed to be reincarnated and retrained.

So, why was it that Walton had advanced to the Great Sage Realm first?

This was unfair!

Was it just because he had acknowledged Linley as his master?

If that was the case…

“At most… at most… I’ll just acknowledge Linley as my master!”

Bud was trying to convince himself in his heart.

“Right. That’s how it is.”

“Only, I’m not acknowledging Linley as my master. I’m acknowledging the Eastern Emperor as my master…”

“Acknowledging the Eastern Emperor as my master isn’t shameful.”

“After all, the previous Eastern Emperor Gandalf, had countless people begging to acknowledge him as their master…”

“In addition, given Linley’s talent, his future accomplishments might be even greater than Gandalf’s…”

“At that point of time, there will be even more people who wanted to acknowledge Linley as their master.”

“Now that I’ve acknowledged Linley as my master in advance, in the future, I might even become the Senior of many people…”

Bud was trying to convince himself in his heart.

It had to be said that the angle he thought of was very convincing.

Soon, he was convinced. Then, without any further hesitation, he rose and walked towards Linley’s courtyard…

He had decided to acknowledge Linley as his master!
