Chapter 1101 A New Master

“I wouldn’t dare lie to you, Mr. Norton!” Joshua exclaimed as he hurriedly shook his head. “You can beat me to death

if you ever catch me doing so.”

 

 

 

 

 

The prospect of accelerated progress tempted Skylar. As Karl had never deigned to mention it, he had never heard of

such a thing.

It appears that Karl still has some reservations against me and has not told me all of his secrets.

“All right. I’ll trust you just this once.”

Skylar nodded and led his men in Joshua’s wake toward Gardner Manor.

The group was stunned by the scene that greeted them when they arrived soon after.

The thousands of acres of the once-proud Gardner residence were now a wasteland littered with rubble and craters.

Not a single building remained upright.

 

At the northmost point of the land, however, a tall tower stood erect. The decrepit structure exuded an aura as

ancient as time itself.

“Mr. Gardner!”

Joshua caught sight of the human-shaped pile of ash on the ground and immediately recognized it as Karl’s remains.

Having been employed by Karl for many years, he would recognize his master no matter the form of his remains.

“It looks like we’ve come too late. Jared has killed Mr. Gardner and escaped.”

As Skylar spoke, his eyes swept all over Pentacarna Tower.

 

Its ancient aura attracted him the moment he laid eyes on the tower.

“You must avenge Mr. Gardner, Mr. Norton!”

Tears streamed down Joshua’s face. It was an outcome he never expected when he abandoned Karl to escape.

“Hmm… Before I do that, I want to attest the truth to your words first,” Skylar said as he walked straight into

Pentacarna Tower.

The dense aura began to pour into Skylar’s body the moment he stepped foot in the Tower, causing his pulse to

quicken.

Instinctively, Skylar sat cross-legged on the ground as the martial energy in his elixir field began to fluctuate rapidly.

After what felt like an hour, Skylar felt like he was about to burst with energy.

“What a miraculous artifact indeed! How dare that fellow Karl keep something this amazing to himself?”

To his amazement, Skylar emerged from the tower and found that it was already night.

“How long have I been inside?” he asked his subordinate.

“You’ve been in there for a whole day, Mr. Norton,” his subordinate replied.

“A whole day?” Skylar was shocked.

No wonder I feel full of energy. It appears that I have been cultivating for a whole day as opposed to an hour.

Apparently, time passes much quicker inside the tower.

“I haven’t lied to you, Mr. Norton!” Joshua chimed in at once. “Pentacarna Tower does not need to be activated now

that Mr. Gardner is dead. It will now do so on its own.”

Skylar threw his head back and cackled maniacally, his gaze scorching with ambition.

“Well done!” Skylar said to Joshua. “This place will need a new master now that Karl is dead. I will give you the funds

to rebuild this place back up, and it shall be the new stronghold of the Norton family.”

Joshua fell to his knees at his words and bowed frantically in gratitude. “I will walk to the ends of the earth for you, Mr.

Norton!”

“Right now, I need you to stand guard here while I enter for solitary cultivation. I believe it will not take long for me to

achieve the rank of Top Level Martial Arts Grandmaster, possibly even halfway up to Martial Arts Marquis! Once I

break through and become a Martial Arts Marquis, I will be the best fighter of this generation of Jadeborough! Even

Edgar wouldn’t stand a chance against me.”

Skylar’s face was alight with excitement and greed. He was lost in the vision of the near future where he envisioned

himself at the peak of his generation of fighters in Jadeborough and basking in the praise of his contemporaries.

He began his solitary cultivation soon after. Wisps of aura circled Skylar’s body as his brow flickered with flashes of

red light.
