Chapter 513: Night Falls, Betty Jefferson Arrives



“An extravagant feast has been prepared to celebrate Mr. Great’s achievement as the foremost figure on the Hero Monument. It is also a prelude to Mr. Great’s promising future, where he will soar to great heights and achieve extraordinary success,” said Sean.

Originally out for breakfast, Sean found himself spending over two hours in the hundred-meter bamboo forest due to a bet. Now, with the sun directly overhead, it was almost time for lunch.

Hastiff gestured, “Mr. Great, please follow me.”

“Mr. Hastiff, after you,” Sean replied courteously. He left the bamboo forest in the company of Hastiff and Gloy Jefferson, becoming the center of attention, much like a star among the crowd.

During the journey, Sean hesitated but couldn’t resist asking, “Mr. Hastiff, I recall you mentioning that the higher one’s level below bright energy, the stronger their power, the greater the repelling force they experience within the hundred-meter bamboo forest.”

“And so?”

“Is the array fair to everyone? Is there no possibility of cheating?”

From the moment Sean entered the bamboo forest until he left, there was no sign of any repelling force. This was clearly abnormal.

“Indeed,” Hastiff nodded, smiling. “Mr. Great just witnessed it. Even someone like me, at the half-step bright energy level, experiences the same force. If one’s talent is lacking, they will be repelled.”

“Haha!”

“As far as I know, the array within the hundred-meter bamboo forest was jointly arranged by senior figures below bright energy. It is designed to assess the potential of academy disciples to advance to bright energy.”

“As for the distance of one hundred meters, it seems to be based on the limits experienced by those senior figures at various stages of dark energy. Simply put, if you can achieve what those senior figures did during the early, middle, late, complete, or half-step stages of dark energy, then your chances of advancing to bright energy are very high.”

“Conversely,”

“The greater the difference between your level and that of those senior figures below bright energy, the smaller your chances of reaching bright energy like them…”

Understandably, after hearing Hastiff’s explanation, Sean suddenly understood everything.

In essence, those senior figures set their limits at one hundred meters based on their various stages of dark energy, and the array represents who can reach the furthest. It indicates whose talent is closer to those senior figures, naturally increasing their chances of reaching bright energy.

“If someone can complete the entire distance, it means their talent and potential are no less than those senior figures. What those senior figures can do, they can also do!”

“Now I see…”

In admiration of the ingenious thoughts of those senior figures, Sean nodded, then asked, “What would happen if a true bright energy powerhouse entered the hundred-meter bamboo forest?”

Indeed, Sean was a true bright energy powerhouse. He had entered and seen the situation, and while he had some guesses about it, he wanted to confirm.

“Well…” Hastiff paused, then smiled, “The hundred-meter bamboo forest is built to assess the talent of those below bright energy and measure their chances of advancing to bright energy. Since you are already in the ranks of bright energy, the hundred-meter bamboo forest naturally loses its effect.”

“So,”

“The array within the hundred-meter bamboo forest is ineffective for a true bright energy powerhouse.”

Exactly as Sean suspected! This was akin to giving a test meant for college students to high school students. The higher the score, the greater the chance of entering college. And you, you are already a college student, what the hell are you doing!!!

“Indeed, it’s because of this that the hundred-meter bamboo forest is fair, treating everyone equally. As long as your talent is strong enough, you can stand out among many disciples!”

“As for cheating,”

“Those below bright energy have no room to cheat, and if a bright energy powerhouse comes, their aura cannot be concealed.”

“Unless…”

Hastiff seemed to suddenly realize something and said, in a deep voice, “Unless someone has taken a miraculous elixir that can conceal their true level and deliberately suppressed their true strength, deceiving others and silently making a breakthrough!”

After saying this, Hastiff seemed to intentionally or unintentionally scrutinize Sean for a moment. A bold idea popped into his mind, but soon he shook his head, dispelling such a thought.

A true bright energy powerhouse?

Impossible!

Hastiff would rather believe that Sean achieved a terrifying result of ninety-nine meters than believe that someone as young as Sean could be a bright energy powerhouse. Sensing Hastiff’s unusual gaze, Sean’s heart skipped a beat.

Well…”Harm comes from the mouth, almost revealing the secret…

It was supposed to be lunch, but Hastiff, Gloy Jefferson, and others kept toasting and chatting with Sean, dragging the meal on until six in the evening!

During that time!

Both Hastiff and Gloy Jefferson, fueled by alcohol, attempted to pry into Sean and Gorillas’ backgrounds, curious about Sean’s origins, eager to understand how someone with such extraordinary talent and bloodline came to be!

What was the heritage???

However!

Sean remained tight-lipped, naturally unwilling to easily disclose his secrets!

“This child is a mystery!”

After Sean left, Hastiff, staring at his back, said in a low voice, “There must be huge secrets hidden in him and Gorillas, but unfortunately, with our status, we probably don’t deserve to know!”

Just based on Sean’s terrifying talent and bloodline, even a fool could guess that Sean’s background was definitely not simple. And Sean’s parents, being able to produce such a martial arts genius as Sean, were definitely exceptional individuals!

But!

Whether it was Sean or Gorillas, they both appeared out of nowhere, their origins a mystery, leaving people puzzled!

“Yes!”

Gloy Jefferson, standing beside Hastiff, nodded deeply and said, “However, for us, it doesn’t matter where Great Ape and Gorillas come from or why they are so powerful!”

“What matters is, as long as we can maintain a good relationship with him, he will bring us unexpected surprises in the future!”

“So…”

“Haha!”

“Mr. Hastiff, it’s getting dark, and it’s time for me to fulfill my promise. I’m going to find Betty and have her prepare, then I’ll go to Great Ape’s room and do those meaningful things with him!!!”

After speaking!

Gloy Jefferson enthusiastically walked towards the building where Betty Jefferson lived. Although he was essentially selling his granddaughter, he felt an inexplicable sense of great fortune, delighted beyond measure!

“Ridiculous!”

Hastiff, glaring at Gloy Jefferson’s back, couldn’t help but curse under his breath…

At that time!

Sean had already returned to his room and was comfortably soaking in a hot bath. As for Betty Jefferson, that matter had been a passing thought for him, so he had long since dismissed it!

His wife Cecilia was still lying in the Hill of Swords, waiting for Sean to retrieve the Phoenix Gallbladder, his father Parker Mason was likely trapped in the Hall of Jade, waiting for Sean to go and rescue him, and Phyllis was waiting for her father to return…

Sean only had half a year, every moment precious. How could he possibly have any covetous thoughts for another man’s woman?

“Hmm?”

It was probably around seven in the evening when Sean, wearing a white robe, had just come out of the bathroom when he suddenly heard footsteps, getting closer and closer!

Moments later!

The footsteps stopped at the door of Sean’s room!

Immediately after!

A familiar, somewhat timid voice sounded outside the door: “Mr. Great, are you… there?”

It was Betty Jefferson!

Sean was taken aback, only then remembering Betty Jefferson’s situation, his face suddenly darkened!

Damn!

That old bastard Gloy Jefferson had actually offered up his own granddaughter? Sean cursed inwardly, and he walked a few steps to the door, reaching out to open it!

There stood Betty Jefferson, who had clearly taken the time to dress up before coming. Her above-average appearance had suddenly risen to another level, her features lively and charming. Blushing and shy, she looked particularly alluring under the lamplight!

Moreover!

Whether it was by Betty Jefferson’s own willingness or under pressure from that old bastard Gloy Jefferson, she was currently wearing a bright red nightgown. Paired with her shapely figure, she was downright eye-catching in the dim light!

What the hell is this???

With just one look, Sean was stunned, standing there dumbfounded, his face completely darkened in an instant. My goodness, dressing like this and coming alone… is she trying to seduce me???

“Mr. Great, I…”

It was clear that Betty Jefferson was extremely nervous, her heart pounding like a drum, beating nearly frantically. Her breathing was somewhat heavy, causing the ups and downs on her chest where Sean had poked her yesterday. She clutched her left hand with her right, head bowed, as if she had gone through some incredibly difficult mental preparation before summoning the courage to raise her head, meeting Sean’s eyes, and spoke with a strained voice, “I’ve already heard about what happened this morning in the hundred-meter bamboo forest, and I know… grandpa lost the bet and gave me to you…””I admit it!”

“Yesterday, I was wrong. I was willful and Mr. Great kindly advised me, but I repaid kindness with ingratitude, causing trouble for grandpa to find Mr. Great. I apologize to you!”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“I am willing to bear the consequences of my mistakes and pay the appropriate price!”

“So…”

“Can I come in now??”

As Betty Jefferson spoke, her voice trembled, crystal-clear tears swirled in her eyes, on the verge of falling, clearly bearing enormous pressure and enduring great pain!!!
