Chapter 435
“I-” Leon was speechless. He would have never dreamt that Gilbert would think he was the
mastermind. behind everything.
Suddenly, he found himself at a loss for words, not knowing how to explain himself.
“That’s right! Leon, to save me, you decided to die with the thugs that time. You’re so skilled, how could
you have needed to do that?” Iris was stunned, finally realizing that something was wrong.
She witnessed Leon’s skills for herself. He would have no problems even facing a few dozen thugs.
With Leon’s skills, just two kidnappers would have been incredibly easy to deal with. Why would he
have needed to die with them?
Leon had to have been faking it!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThinking about that, Iris’s trust in Leon started to sway.
“Iris, I didn’t know any martial arts back then.” Leon wanted to explain himself, but he did not know how
to.
“You didn’t know martial arts? You’re telling me that, in just two or three months, you managed to get to
the peak Innate State when you didn’t know any martial arts in the first place? Do you think we’re so
easy to fool?!” Gilbert started to laugh.
Those young geniuses like Harvey and Anson practiced their family techniques since they were young.
They trained for over twenty years, and they were incredibly talented. That was the only way they
barely made it to the peak Innate State.
No matter how talented Leon was, there was no way he would have reached that level in just two or
three
months!
It was not realistic at all!
Of course, he did not know that Leon was not using martial arts at all, but the sage arts instead!
“I’m not lying to you, I’m speaking the truth.”
Leon felt like crying.
Suddenly, he wanted to reveal his inheritance and the fact that he was using sage arts.
However, logic told him he could not do it!
If others knew that he had knowledge of sage arts and much more valuable knowledge, they would do
everything they could to steal it. Then, he might end up dying without knowing the reason!
With his meager skills, he was still very far away from the older generation of many large families. He
did not have the skills to protect himself yet.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf he revealed his biggest secret, he would end up dying!
“Iris, surely you see his true face now? Back then, he schemed to kidnap you and act out a show where
the hero saves the princess. He aimed to get close to you and use you to get close to the Youngs!
“He might even be aiming to take our family’s wealth away! His intentions are sinister, and his methods
are
despicable. Don’t fall for his tricks!” Gilbert said, forcibly putting a despicable label on Leon.
“Leon, is what my father is saying true? Did you only pursue me for my family’s riches? Are you just
trying to get closer to the Youngs?” Iris’s face was pale, and her mood sank immensely.
Leon always had an upstanding character. Based on what she knew of Leon, Leon should not be
aiming for her family’s riches.
However, the fact that Leon pretended to want to die with the thugs despite being so skilled was
undeniable
as well.
If Leon was not planning anything, why would he have needed to put on that show?
