Chapter 499
"Master Ulysses? Could it be the original owner of this place, the bloodline of Mr. Kale, who was stripped of his title? ”
After the butler bowed and retreated, Minaya on the opposite side blinked curiously and looked at Xia Dong, after these years of study, she also knew the general relationship in the noble circle of the kingdom better, and for the Viscount Kalai who used to live here, she was obviously deliberately careful.
"Well, it's him, it seems that Mina has learned your homework well." Xia Dong did not hesitate to verbally praise the girl, but the idea from the earth said that praise contains infinite power, so he often seized various opportunities to encourage each other.
But unlike the big smile that could be exchanged for a girl every time in the past, after hearing his reply, Minaya suddenly pondered for a moment with some concern, and then opened her mouth to persuade: "Brother, this person is a little troublesome. ”
Her teacher, Mei Li, taught her early on not to offend anyone easily, let alone to offend anyone meaninglessly.
This Ulysses himself has nothing, but he has an opponent who is destined to have a bright future, isn't it a hidden danger to rashly contact such a person? Although she knew that her brother had great powers, Teacher Mei Li was also right, in this world, the most powerful thing may not be strength, compared to the strength that destroys the world, the conspiracy to kill people without seeing blood is more terrifying!
What happened to so many great heroes in history?
Nodding secretly in his heart, Xia Dong was very pleased with the girl's keen reaction, although he could give the girl a lot of things, but he couldn't protect the other party forever after all, only having the right thinking was the best means of self-preservation, even if it would make the other party lose a little innocence, but it was much better than the tragic ending after the worst end.
"Don't worry, Mina, of course your brother has his own considerations." After speaking, Xia Dong stood up, stretched comfortably, and then waved at the girl and turned to leave.
In the elegant and opulent room, the well-groomed Ulysses sat quietly in a high chair, his gaze quietly surveying everything familiar around him.
This is where he was born and where he grew up, and most of the joys and sorrows of the past ten years of life have been staged here.
Hearing the news that his father sacrificed his life for the country, his grandfather held a grand 10th birthday banquet for himself, and met her for the first time, and learned that his only grandfather had also died in a distant fortress to accept the king's sentence......
As the past came back one by one, even though he had tried to warn himself to restraint before coming, Ulysses, who was still a minor after all, could not help but blush with excitement, and gripped the armrests of the chair with both hands.
Seeing that the emotions were intense to the extreme, the young man didn't know what to think of, and suddenly calmed down, just like a sea with hidden undercurrents, although it was full of danger, but on the surface, it was not alarming.
Who exactly could this Sharton be? Does he really have a way to help himself? Why did he do this? Is it really just because of the relationship with grandpa?
In the past few days, he has inquired about Xia Dong's information, and it is precisely because of the story of the other party's help to the Pearl family that he will come as promised, this wonderful story of repaying his kindness has truly become a legend, otherwise in the face of this villa that represents the dilapidation of the family, he will only think about avoiding it as much as possible, and even hiding as far as he can.
The high-end wooden door is really different, and there is no sound when it is pushed open, Xia Dong saw the young man who was calm on the outside but surging in his heart, and couldn't help nodding secretly, it seems that it is really suffering that makes people grow.
"Officially, my name is Chardon, and I am a friend of your grandfather, well, you can call me eldest brother or uncle, I don't mind these titles." Smiling and greeting, Xia Dong walked into the room and sat down on the sofa with a loud bang.
Ulysses immediately stood up, bent down respectfully, and addressed him sincerely, "Brother Chardon." ”
Touching his chin, Xia Dong was not polite, and said straight to the point: "I have already understood everything about you, and now I don't talk about the past, I just want to ask you what are your plans for the future?" ”
After a moment's pause, Ulysses was obviously a little uncomfortable with this unbuffered way of talking, but he quickly mustered up the courage to speak his mind: "I want to be strong, I want to wash away the shame of my family, I want to restore the glory of my ancestors, I want to take back what belongs to me!" ”
At the same time, he was quietly adding in his heart, I want those who look down on me and bullied me to pay the price, I want to be able to stand in front of her openly, I want to ...... Get her!
Nodding, Xia Dong simply stood up neatly, "The cultivation of strength can only rely on yourself, but I can find a good teacher for you, and if you get into any trouble, you can also come to me, as long as it is within my ability, I will try to come forward for you, of course, this is limited, I will only help you three times, this apprenticeship is also counted, cherish it yourself." ”
In the back garden, Jie Liya was carefully inquiring about Minaya's cultivation last night.
Suddenly sensing that Xia Dong walked into the courtyard, she turned around and looked at Xia Dong who was slowly approaching with a pair of wonderful eyes, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, in the past time, whenever she taught Minaya, the other party would deliberately avoid it, what happened today?
Looking at the eyes of this beautiful and strong woman, Xia Dong shrugged his shoulders and ordered Minaya to himself: "Mina, you go back to the room first, I have something to do with your master." ”
Hearing this, the girl immediately nodded obediently, bowed to her master, and left quietly.
When there were only two of them left in the courtyard, Xia Dong stretched out his hand to invite the other party to sit down on the chair next to him, and at the same time said his intention: "Ms. Jieliya, I'm sorry to trouble you again, I have an old friend who also admires you very much, so I hope you can be fulfilled." ”
Although on the surface, he seemed to be nothing, but in fact, he was still a little embarrassed in his heart, after all, he was like the other party's father giving orders at will, and it involved such a big thing as accepting apprentices.
Staring at Xia Dong a little blankly, Jie Liya asked with some hesitation for a while: "You mean that I want to accept another apprentice?" She was a little speechless in her heart, did this old monster really think of himself as a governess? Giving it away to yourself twice in three days, is it really as if you don't need to cultivate?
"Hehe, that's true, but don't worry, this little guy has a good character, and he'll be training with Mina here, so it won't take extra time to you." Xia Dong smiled and explained two sentences, in his mind, although his request was a bit presumptuous, but the so-called one sheep is to put two sheep is also to drive, what is the big difference?
Don't you see that all teachers on the earth teach dozens of people at the same time?
Showing a disguised smile, Jie Liya roared violently in her heart, bastard, do you really think that the old lady is your maid, you can do whatever you want? The old lady is also a sixth-level powerhouse, and anyone who wants to worship me as a teacher can line up at the gate of the city!
Besides, it's not just a matter of time to accept apprentices, right? In the future, the old lady will have to take care of them for the rest of her life!
Feeling the fierce emotions that shook in this lady's soul, how could Xia Dong not know what state the other party was in his heart now? I'm afraid that cursing myself is light.
But embarrassment is embarrassment, Ulysses's affairs still have to be dealt with head-on, the lady's signboard in front of him is very useful, as long as he is next to her master, the kid's future will be at least ten years less struggle, if he fights for a little more and can toss out the fourth-level strength, even the idea of marrying a princess is not impossible to realize.
So, Xia Dong nodded solemnly, then took off a pale gold ancient bracelet on his wrist and handed it to the other party, "This is a magical item, it can release a seventh-level divine skill once a day, Holy Yang Salvation, it is useless in my hands, and the style is not very suitable for men, maybe only a beautiful person like you, lady." ”
He is no longer as simple as before, and finally understands that people need to interact with each other, and the relationship between one party alone can never last for a long time, so he no longer bothered to talk about it, but directly took the initiative to give benefits.
Her eyes fell on the bracelet that seemed to radiate warmth, and Jie Liya immediately began to think about it.
A magical item that can unleash a seventh-level divine art?
In all fairness, this is definitely a good thing, although it is not as good as the Holy Spirit Emblem that Xia Dong once took out, but in terms of practicality, it may be even better, after all, that kind of treasure will attract too many coveters, and she doesn't think that she can keep it with only a sixth-level strength.
But this bracelet is different, the use of the Holy Sun Redemption is very wide, it can be used for group attacks, purification, and delaying time, and the power of the seventh-level divine magic is not small, even if she eats it herself, it will be enough to choke, as long as she has this, her explosive power will at least go up a notch.
Although she is the number one beauty and powerhouse in the Fairmont Kingdom, countless people think about sending all kinds of good things every day, but there are no such precious magical items, and her most precious magical items are only level four, in fact, all her magical items add up to a palm that can be counted.
After pondering for a moment, Jie Liya decisively reached out and took the bracelet, put it on her right hand, and then looked at Xia Dong, "Who is my second apprentice?" ”
"You've probably heard of that grandson of Viscount Calle, Ulysses." The trouble was finally solved, Xia Dong replied happily.
As one of the prominent figures of the kingdom, of course she knows the story of the Viscount Kale's family, and she also knows the story of the genius boy Dries of Dao, but so what?
Although there is no way to face Xia Dong, that kind of existence is not in her eyes, this is from the inherent pride of a sixth-level powerhouse.
In fact, even if she didn't rely on her own strength, Jielia's connections in the kingdom alone were enough to crush the Viscount of Farah, so you can imagine how restless the other party would be when she received the news that Ulysses had become her disciple.
"When will he come to apprentice?" Jieliya didn't mention the small troubles that might be behind it.
Waving his hand, Xia Dong said casually: "Look at you, that little guy is in the study now, if you want, you can do it now." ”
Some speechlessly looked at this lazy man full of mystery, Jie Liya couldn't guess it, it is estimated that this guy had just promised someone on the front foot, and he ran to find him on the back foot, thinking that the other party seemed to be completely determined by her attitude, she couldn't help but hate her teeth.
