Chapter 1035: Luke Yates and His Grandfather
Braydon’s transformation piqued Channing’s interest.
Just now, the two sovereign pinnacles each struck with their palms. Even eminent pinnacles could not withstand such an attack!
Furthermore, Braydon was a conferred pinnacle!
Suffering a palm strike from the sovereign pinnacle meant that one would die without a doubt.
Moreover, Braydon had taken two palm strikes and was still alive.
The more Channing watched, the more shocked he became. Braydon’s injuries were healing quickly, not because of his constitution, but because he had used some kind of forbidden technique.
“Did you use up your life force to heal your injuries?” he muttered softly.
Channing observed carefully and realized that it wasn’t that forbidden technique he had in mind.
Braydon closed his eyes to heal. The process did not take long. When he opened his eyes, he could already see the southern gate of the capital in the distance.
The Martial Artist Summit was less than three miles away from them.
Braydon landed on the ground, indicating to Hendrix that he was fine.
Channing exclaimed, “What a powerful forbidden technique. The injuries of the broken heart meridians and broken bones were healed in less than fifteen minutes. This is beyond the scope of ancient martial arts. It is a secret technique of the martial arts branch, right?”
“I can teach you!”
Braydon was referring to the Thousand Feathers Technique.
If it was not for Channing’s help, the two sovereign pinnacles would have self-destructed, not only would Braydon have died, even Hendrix and the little fool would not have been able to escape.
Channing’s effortless act was akin to saving Braydon and the other two’s lives.
Men of the Northern Army did not accept the kindness of outsiders.
Thus, if he wanted the Thousand Feathers Technique, Braydon would not hide it from him.
Compared to Hendrix and Luke’s lives, the eight supreme techniques were nothing.
Braydon had never cared about worldly possessions.
Channing declined politely. “A gentleman doesn’t steal what others love. I cultivate ancient martial arts, not martial arts. The secret techniques of martial arts are not suitable for me!”
“Then, what do you want?” The little fool was very hostile toward Channing.
One riding a donkey was hostile to the other riding a bull.
Channing couldn’t help but laugh. “I’ve been sealed in ice for too long, so I’m very unfamiliar with the outside world. I’ve come to the capital without any friends or worries. I’ll have to trouble the three of you to find me a place to stay as a repayment for my help today!”
“I have a residence in the capital that I haven’t lived in before. I’ll get Hendrix to bring you there.”
Braydon was referring to the Northern King Residence.
The nine-door courtyard was built several years ago and was next to Syrus Yanagi’s Eastern Palace.
Channing nodded. “Thank you. But there’s no hurry. Where can I register for the Martial Artist Summit?”
“The competition has already begun. The deadline for registration was eight o’clock last night. You’re late.”
Hendrix followed him and told him.
“That’s not good!” Channing frowned.
Channing seemed to place a lot of importance on the Martial Artist Summit and was determined to participate.
However, this kind of thing was not difficult for Braydon.
Braydon was the chief examiner of the Martial Artist Summit.
Adding another name to the list of participants was not a big deal at all.
Braydon had already guessed Channing’s identity!
This person was probably one of the people Lazlo Abbott had mentioned earlier. There were geniuses who had been sealed in ice in the martial artist families of the various major entities. Recently, they had broken through their seals and reappeared in the world.
Channing was such a person. He had been sealed in ice for countless years. When he woke up, the outside world had already changed. The people he knew in the past were probably already old, and his partner was probably already dead.
This was also an unfortunate thing.
When he woke up, the world had changed.
The only thing he pursued in his heart was probably martial arts.
Braydon and his group did not return to the capital directly. They went to the ring venue not far away.
“Brother, are we not going to Qali?” asked the little fool Luke in a low voice.
“We already know that it’s a trap. Other than you, no one else would fall for it!” Hendrix rolled his eyes.
Martial Emperor Yanagi was poisoned because the Woodard family in Qali had predicted Braydon’s next course of action.
Once Braydon found out that it was the Woodard family who poisoned Martial Emperor Yanagi, he would personally head to Qali and lead his troops to exterminate the entire Woodard family.
They were luring the snake out of its hole!
The people in the dark wanted to lure Braydon out to kill him.
They would not stop until they had succeeded.
Just now in the wilderness, there was already a supreme pinnacle hidden in the dark.
It was much too dangerous.
They could not enter the tiger’s den willingly.
That would mean gambling their life away!
On one hand, he would be able to destroy the Woodard family.
On the other hand, Braydon, Luke, and Hendrix would all be buried in the wilderness.
Braydon would never gamble their lives away like that.
He would not use Luke’s life as a bet.
At this moment, in the ring-shaped venue that could accommodate 500,000 people.
Lazlo sat at the head of the table, under the watchful eyes of everyone, but no one dared to make trouble.
Channing’s eyes flashed with a trace of recollection. He said softly, “Looking at this scene, it feels as if I’ve gone back to 1000 years ago. Before I was frozen, the land of Hansworth was also holding a Martial Artist Summit. At that time, Hansworth was the most revered country in the world. All the countries paid tribute to us every year. Every year, a large number of foreign guests came to Hansworth to learn martial arts.”
Braydon listened quietly. He knew how magnificent the golden age Channing was talking about was.
That was the golden age created by the ancestors of Hansworth.
However, in the modern era, Braydon and the others could still restore the glory of their ancestors and create a prosperous era for Hansworth.
Dominic Lowe and Kieran Normand walked over. “What happened this morning? Why did you transfer the capital garrison away?” they asked.
“Something minor happened. Oh right, where’s the list of participants? Add his name to it.”
Hendrix replied, not revealing the fact that Martial Emperor Yanagi had been poisoned.
Kieran was much more cautious. He didn’t dare to underestimate the people Braydon had brought.
In fact, he really couldn’t see through Channing’s thoughts.
“Luke, who is this?” Kieran asked.
“Someone you can’t afford to offend! Stop asking!” The little fool’s words almost choked his grandfather to death.
Kieran’s face darkened. “No matter what, I’m still your grandfather. How can you talk to me like that?” he reprimanded.
“Forget it. If you weren’t my grandfather, I would have buried you alive long ago!” Luke’s words almost angered Kieran to death.
The little fool had never been afraid in his life.
With his grandfather Kieran here, Luke was not afraid.
Dominic winked at Braydon and whispered, “Luke is from the Northern Army. Why don’t you do something about it? In public, Commander Normand is his grandfather!”
“When Luke was suffering in the northern territory, I had never heard that he had a grandfather.”
Braydon had been protecting his younger brother for more than ten years.
It was even more impossible for him to side with outsiders today.
Dominic smiled awkwardly.
Braydon left with his hands behind his back. He said calmly, “Luke has been by my side since he was seven years old. He grew up with me. I’ve never seen his grandfather all those years in the northern desert. He had never even gone to the northern desert to see him.
“Since you didn’t fulfill your responsibility as an elder, how could you show your authority as an elder!”
Braydon smiled faintly and turned around to take Luke away with him.
