CHAPTER XIX
"It's a handwritten invitation from San Theo Lee!
Although Collins now knows Li Yuxuan's true identity and knows that he is several years older than the other party, the title that has been formed for a long time will not be changed for a while. Moreover, Collins received a lot of guidance from Li Yuxuan in martial arts, and the relationship between the two can be said to be both teachers and friends. Therefore, to this day, he still calls Li Yuxuan "brother".
"He seems to be very famous, how much do you know about this family?"
"Yes, he's not a small fame in the West, but if you compare it to who you really are, he might be a little worse. Collins said with a hippie smile.
With a few days off, and an invitation from San Theo Lee, Collins would have been thrilled.
"Don't digress and make it clear what you know about this person, I haven't decided whether to go or not, don't be happy too early. ”
Although Li Yuxuan's words made him a little disappointed, when he talked about San Theo Lee, Corinth's excitement came up again.
"If there is an exact word to describe the person of San Theo Lee, it is to call him a genius. At the age of twenty, he succeeded his father as lord of the castle and took care of the family's affairs. In just a few years, the San Theo family has gained a great influence in the political, economic, and military aspects of the entire alliance. In particular, his marriage to the chairman of the Supreme Council of the Alliance, the lord of the city of Echvon, made him the second most powerful person in the entire alliance. Not only did he have extraordinary political and economic talents, but I also heard that he was a literary genius, and even the director of the University Library called him a literary genius that was rare in a century. However, what makes people feel that the fly in the ointment is that since he was a child, he has not learned any martial arts, but this is also the tradition of the San Theo family. Otherwise, I believe he would have achieved considerable success in military affairs. ”
"Do you think that people who do not practice martial arts will not be able to gain a foothold on the battlefield? Many military strategists throughout the ages have many famous generals who are not disgraced in martial arts, and they are much more difficult to deal with than those martial artists who only know how to fight bravely and ruthlessly. ”
"I didn't say he was easy to deal with!" Collins muttered.
Alas, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change. No matter how much he knew about Collins, he could not change the natural nature of his character. It can be said that Collins is the most scheming person Li Yuxuan has seen in the past 20 years, and it can also be said that he is the most innocent person. Perhaps it is precisely because of his simplicity that Li Yuxuan, who has seen all the vicissitudes of the world at a young age, cares about him very much, and always treats him as his little brother from time to time.
"Then do you think we should visit this genius tonight?" Li Yuxuan actually asked for Collins' opinion.
"Of course you want to go, you have a chance to see San Theo Lee, wouldn't it be a pity to miss it? ”
Speaking of which, Corinth just wanted to see what San Theo Lee really was.
"Since you want to go, let's get to know this San Theo Lee tonight and see how remarkable he really is!"
Boscomb City, the Lord's Palace.
The young San Theo Lee has flowing waist-length white hair, and his handsome appearance has the elegant demeanor of an oriental man, except for a pair of blue eyes that indicate that he has the blood of a mainland Westerner, he exudes a completely elegant and extraordinary temperament unique to the East. Every person who saw him in person would not associate him with the city lord of the seven city-states of the Alliance, and he gave people the impression that he was completely an elegant scholarly image.
It is precisely because of this temperament and image of him that many people who know him ignore his destructive power, so that they finally taste the shame of unforgettable failure.
Compared to the elegance of San Theo Lee, Vincent, who is standing under him at this moment, is more like a leader. A typical Westerner, with a burly body, light red hair, and tough facial features, fully indicates that this person's personality should belong to the type of perseverance.
San Theo Lee and Vincent are together, and in terms of their appearance and momentum, Vincent is more like the image that a city lord should have. Everyone who meets San Theo Lee for the first time will see Vincent as the lord of Boscombe. But Vincent, who grew up with San Theo Lee, is well aware of the terrifying power that lies beneath San Theo Lee's weak exterior. The outside world has long believed that San Theo Lee, like the city lords of previous generations, was a scholarly figure who did not practice martial arts. In fact, even Vincent, who has been called one of the top ten masters of the league by the warriors of the league, is far from being a match for San Theo Lee. In terms of his martial arts alone, Vincent was convinced that San Theo Lee's strength was far superior to that of the so-called "Four Horsemen" in the western part of the continent.
"Do you think the other party will go to the appointment tonight?"
San Theo Lee's voice was as natural as his appearance, as clear as a mountain stream.
"The subordinates don't know, but the subordinates have never seen any guests who the young master can't invite. ”
"This guest is not an ordinary person, I am afraid that I am the most extraordinary person I have ever seen in my life. ”
"The person who was able to compete with the 'number one general' Yankel and gain the upper hand and defeat the 'Flower of the Empire' Ferdinand is indeed an unusual person, but doesn't the young master's words feel too much?"
"No, absolutely, because you don't know his true identity yet. In my mind, Jankel's unbeaten streak this time is entirely the result of his lack of effort. ”
"Does the young master mean that he is more powerful than Yankel, who is known as the 'first general'?"
San Theo Lee did not answer Vincent's question this time, but leaned down for a moment before nodding slightly.
"Does the young master want to take him for his own use? As far as his subordinates know, he has given up his high position as secretary of state of the Fabre Kingdom, and it seems that he is not a person who can be impressed by glory and wealth. ”
"No one in the world can take it for himself, and if he doesn't become his subordinate, he will become his enemy!"
"Is he determined to fight for the world?" exclaimed Vincent.
"Yes, life is wonderful when there is such an opponent, whether it is friend or foe, I am very happy. ”
There was a clear glint of excitement in San Theo Lee's eyes when he said this.
The first meeting between Li Yuxuan and San Theo Lee surprised both of them. Although from the outside, the two of them are two completely different people in the eyes of others, but they both clearly find themselves in each other.
It should be said that Li Yuxuan was the first person who did not regard Vincent as San Theo at the time of his first meeting, and in this respect alone, Li Yuxuan has far surpassed other people with whom he has met.
Corinth, on the other hand, when he saw St. Theo Lee appear outside the Lord's Mansion with Vincent, he, like most people, thought that the Lord was Vincent, and St. Theo Lee, dressed in elegant attire, was considered to him to be a member of the Lord's staff. He waited for Li Yuxuan to go and greet the city lord first, and then he introduced himself. Unexpectedly, Li Yuxuan stared at the "weak scholar" who was considered by himself to be a staff member.
"The city lord of Boscomb City is really extraordinary, he is obscure, and if he doesn't die, he is a blockbuster!"
"How can it be compared to the hero of the family, Dragon Teng Nine Heavens!"
Just eye contact, both sides have already attracted each other as lifelong rivals, and they both know each other's strength in their hearts, so there is no need to be polite in terms of dialogue.
The dialogue between the two is absolutely impossible for the parties involved, whether it is Li Yuxuan's domineering or San Theo Lee's kingly demeanor, to hide from the other party who is also in the leadership position. But the two people around them were indeed quite shaken by this.
It was the first time Vincent had seen someone who did not see himself as the lord of the city, and from the time Li Yuxuan appeared outside the palace gate until now, his attention had been focused on San Theo Lee. He didn't seem to even have an interest in glancing at himself. Vincent's surprise didn't stop there, although Li Yuxuan didn't look at him from beginning to end, as a martial arts master, he clearly felt the invisible pressure and strong confidence emanating from Li Yuxuan's body. Vincent has always been quite confident in his martial arts, except for facing San Theo Lee, he has always had a strong fighting spirit against any martial arts master in his life, even many times, even if the opponent is slightly stronger than himself, but under his strong fighting spirit, he can win. On the other hand, San Theo Lee, who had been with him for a long time, rarely showed his martial arts skills, and usually hid his edge, so he did not face the pressure of a master when he was with the castle lord. But today's situation is obviously different, and Li Yuxuan's domineering spirit can be deeply felt by all the "homeland" generals. Once it is angry, all the majestic "homeland" generals on the battlefield will feel in danger and dare not make the slightest move. For this point, Tang Xu, who is his friend, feels the most deeply. Although Li Yuxuan didn't make any moves now, the domineering spirit on his body would still make Vincent on the side feel terrified. Facing Li Yuxuan, Vincent's previous proud fighting spirit had long since disappeared, and there seemed to be a voice in his heart warning him that this person was a dangerous person he could never provoke.
Collins on the other side is different, facing Li Yuxuan, he is not in a situation of unknown friend or foe like Vincent, Li Yuxuan is not a threat to himself. Of course, he is different from Tang Xu and other generals of the "homeland", Li Yuxuan is not his own monarch, so he does not feel as strongly as Vincent. To his surprise, the "weak scholar" he originally thought was the city lord's staff would be San Theo Lee, I really don't know how Li Yuxuan saw it, he also noticed that since the other party appeared in the city lord's mansion, Li Yuxuan's attention was focused on the "staff", and he began to think that Li Yuxuan knew the other party, but he didn't expect him to be the master here, the city lord of Boscomb City.
In two simple sentences, there seems to be no estrangement between the two people who met for the first time. San Theo Lee turned sideways past Li Yuxuan, and the two walked side by side towards the door of the mansion, throwing Vincent and Collins in the doorway.
