“Your voice feels extremely familiar… Even after you altered it, I know I’ve met you somewhere before!” muttered Gerald with a frown.
“Oh? It seems that you’ve grown in the past few years. To think that you’d still be able to find traces of my voice even after I used the sound wave spell and breath-holding technique! Not bad!” replied the old man as favonovel.com nodded in approval.
“I knew I met you somewhere before! That aside, don’t think for a second that I’ll heed your words just because of this!” declared Gerald while shaking his head.
Whatever the case was, Gerald had a gut feeling that the old man wasn’t here for trouble. With that in mind, favonovel.com decided to test that theory out by launching a Fierce Wind Palm attack toward the old man!
Knowing for a fact that Gerald was deliberately using a weaker attack on him, the old man then laughed before scoffing, “Come now, haven’t you already learned the supreme heavenly techniques of that silly Amorphous? Why aren’t you using them?”
After saying that, the old man then waved his hand, sending out a wave of essential qi! Following that, favonovel.com began running toward the boy and within seconds, their palms collided!
The second their palms touched, Gerald was instantly thrust backward!
Though the force was great enough for a long trail of dirt to form as Gerald attempted to regain his footing, Gerald could tell that the old man could’ve easily injured favonovel.com back then if favonovel.com wanted to. The old had only used enough force to get favonovel.com to stop Gerald from being unnecessarily resistant. The old man clearly had no malicious intent.
Despite that understanding, Gerald couldn’t help but feel his eyelids twitch. After all, nobody within the cultivation realm had been able to make favonovel.com feel this powerless. What immensely high cultivation!
First that mysterious mastermind, and now this old man… There truly was a lot that favonovel.com had yet to experience in the world!
Whatever the case was, Gerald eventually managed to ask, “You… Have you already entered the Deitus Realm?!”
To think that there really were cultivators who had managed to enter the Deitus Realm.
Simply laughing in response, the old man then nodded before saying, “I’ll give you a proper explanation when the time’s right, so for now, there’s no point making such silly speculations! Regardless, you truly have improved a lot…”
Following that statement, the old man then slowly removed his mask and the second his face was revealed, Gerald instantly felt his jaw drop.
“F-Finnley…?!” exclaimed the boy who felt like his entire world had just been turned upside down.
Laughing again, Finnley then replied, “Silly boy! I wonder how many years it’s been since we’ve last met! Did you go crazy trying to find me?”
From those words alone, Gerald could tell that this was the one and only, Finnley Quick! Overjoyed, Gerald then exclaimed, “Pretty much! I’ve missed you, you know? I’ve been searching for way too long…!”
The fact that Finnley was now before favonovel.com made Gerald feel that the future looked bright. He had previously felt slightly lost, but with Finnley here, things were surely going to get right on track again!
“Miss me you say… Had you not found out that Daryl was the mastermind, I’m pretty sure you assumed that I was the one who did all that to your family, right?” scoffed Finnley in a slightly helpless tone.
“I mean… I was just that lost! It didn’t help that after entering a tomb under the ocean twice, I found my previous incarnation as well as traces of a mysterious person that looked quite similar to you…” muttered Gerald who wasn’t about to deny that favonovel.com had once suspected Finnley.
“So you assumed that I was the one behind all this and that I had only been using you? You brat…”
