Chapter 679: Leons Discovery (1/2)
In the Battle God Palace's historical records, the Shaman King's power was said to be formless without attributes—not like the earthen manipulation the group leader witnessed.
Even so, it was not surprising if the Shaman King's Successor was this powerful. After all, not many can contest the Shaman King's inherited power.
However, if the Divine Doctor was not the Shaman King's Successor, that would make the Divine Doctor even more terrifying.
After all, Shaman King's Successors were destined to die upon the Eternal Night Secret Realm opening, but the Divine Doctor would not if it was his own ability.
In that case, the Divine Doctor would be someone they must never stray onto the bad side of.
As the group leader thought to this point, he calmly raised his hand and prevented the rest of the Battle God Palace group from making any further move—not that they would.
Leon's intimidation was effective to some degree.
”If we talk, will the Divine Doctor treat our young master?” the group leader asked.
”Well, that would depend on what I learn about your young master's situation in the Battle God Palace,” Leon casually responded.
The group leader frowned and said, ”Divine Doctor is not being fair.”
”Being fair?” Leon repeated with a look of ridiculous before he said, ”When you are asking for someone's help, it's basic courtesy to show some sincerity.”
The group leader fell silent for some time.
After a while, the group leader sighed before he said, ”There isn't any internal conflict within the Battle God Palace—at least to my knowledge. We were just as surprised to learn that the young master is poisoned.”
”Who is your young master? Start from there,” Leon directed.
”Fine,” the group leader nodded and introduced, ”Our young master is the youngest son of Third Lord Rholthos, a descendant of the Battle God, which also makes our young master a descendant of the Battle God.”
”However, our young master's bloodline is the purest the Battle God Palace has seen in the past few hundred years, making him naturally gifted in cultivation with high hopes of becoming the next Battle God.”
”Our young master has always been easy-going and very approachable, allowing him to get along with everyone in the Battle God Palace. As such, it does not make sense for anyone to want to hurt our young master.”
”A jealous heart, perhaps? Jealousy can make a person go to extreme lengths,” Leon made an assumption before offering an alternative idea, ”Or the work of a demon. But with the security of the Battle God Palace, I doubt any demon can infiltrate your territory unnoticed.”
Leon gave a nonchalant shrug at the end before he further added, ”Or it could be the work of a jealous heart that sought the assistance of a demon.”
”However, the demon would not need to resort to poison. I'm sure the demons have multiple methods to make a person demonized—but of course, the person chose poison to his traces of ever seeking the demon's help.”
”The Divine Doctor has a rich imagination, but disciples of the Battle God Palace will never betray the Battle God and turn to demons for help. It hasn't been in the past, it hasn't been now, and it certainly won't be in the future,” the group leader stated firmly.
Shortly after, the group leader said, ”Now that the Divine Doctor has learned of our young master's identity, can you help him? Divine Doctor only stands to gain for helping our young master. After all, he is someone destined for greatness.”
