"Is that so? Rodney Foster scoffed after hearing Harvey York's words.
"It's not that I want to disrespect you, kid! "Where did you get the confidence even to say that? "Come! Tell me
where you learn so I can gauge your abilities! "To be honest, even if you get Master Ziegler here, the odds will still
be the same!"
Harvey glanced at Wes Pagan’s head.
The evil energy on him seemed like it was about to materialize.
The torment he had been feeling each day must have been difficult for him.
Sleepless nights were probably the least of his worries.If he did manage to fall asleep, he would be woken up by
nightmares anyway.
At this point, he could only last for weeks at most.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWithout a second thought, Harvey felt pity.
Harvey shifted his gaze toward Rodney.
"I'm not a geomancy expert.I didn’t learn this from a so- called master."
Rodney froze before he coldly chuckled.
"And yet you're still this confident?"
"I do know the art of killing though," replied Harvey.
"For example, you put up a dignified front as if you're some sage...
"But you're not the most proficient at geomancy arts now, right? "Judging from the calluses on your left hand, your
swordsmanship must be a lot better than the experts of the underworld at wielding a blade.
"There must be a wound in the middle of your chest due to your battle...
"You've been suffering every night when the moon is the fullest.This is the reason that you decided to step down.
"You managed to suppress the pain, but your strength also dwindled considerably.At this point, you can’t even
amount to seventy percent of your strength during your peak.Am I wrong?"
Harvey immediately described Rodney’s condition.
The high and mighty look on his face froze.He stared at Harvey with utter disbelief.
"How...How did you know all that?" asked Rodney with a parched tongue.
Wes and the others froze.
Arlet Pagan was utterly shocked after hearing those words.
"Were you really an expert fighter, Grandpa Foster? Did you get injured in a fight as well? "How come I never hear
you talk about this before?"
Rodney's eyes twitched before he looked down with a horrible expression.
Putting his swordsmanship aside...He went up against a mysterious figure a year ago before suffering such a

After going through many different treatments, Rodney never managed to recover.
With his identity and status, he could not just ask for outside help either.
That was why he decided to keep everything a secret.
Even his most trusted disciple was unaware of this.
That was why he was shocked when Harvey completely exposed him at that moment.
‘Maybe he is really that impressive.."
Without a second thought, Rodney took a deep breath.
"You must be quite capable to be able to tell all this with just a single glance.
"You're also probably a lot better than me.
"That said, I’d like you to explain how you're going to save Wes with the art of killing."
Rodney showed an honest expression, as if he wanted to learn from Harvey, but he knew he would not be allowed
to take action without a proper explanation.
