The Legendary Man novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2 Bumping Into The Witch

Jadeborough was a third-tier city.

In actual fact, it fell short of even being a third-tier city.

Many people fled the place as soon as they had money, heading toward the more prosperous and developed capital cities or first-tier cities.

To Jonathan, however, Jadeborough was the place he had dreamed of countless times in the past three years.

After all, someone whom he would never forget in his entire life was there, and that person was his wife, Josephine Smith.

More accurately speaking, he had married into his wife’s family.

Four years ago, he was at a dead end after being set up.

His company had gone bankrupt, and he was being hunted by his debtors.

Just when he was heavily injured after having been slashed more than a dozen times and almost died while fleeing, Josephine saved him.

Not only that, but she even paid off all his debts.

She only had one stipulation—marry her and be a live-in son-in-law.

The Smith family was a prominent family in Jadeborough, so he was certainly unworthy of marrying the eldest daughter of the Smith family when his company had gone bankrupt and he was penniless back then.

After marrying into her family, all that greeted him was endless ridicule and disdain.

Even his wife, Josephine, had never once smiled at him, much less allowed him to touch her after their marriage.

It wasn’t until later did he learn that she had demanded that he marry into her family because she didn’t want to be a sacrificial lamb for a political marriage.

As such, he was merely a tool she was using to turn down a political marriage.

Nonetheless, he still endured the infinite derision and mockery just to repay the debt of gratitude he owed her for having repaid all his debts back then.

But on a particular day three years ago, he suddenly became the target of an assassination.

He inadvertently broke into the military camp and was forcibly drafted into the army, becoming a soldier who couldn’t even hold a gun properly.

Ever since then, he started going to battle all over the world.

From a soldier who was often picked on, he gradually became Asura, who subjugated the world and struck fear into all.

All that was thanks to a manual of mysterious technique he came into possession of by coincidence.

That manual was known as the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique.

Alas, he later learned that the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique in his hands was only half of its entirety. It was an incomplete manual with the other half missing.

“It’s been three years, and I’m finally back!” Jonathan couldn’t help exclaiming as he stared at the heavy traffic in front of him. “Josephine, three years ago, I was treated with contempt after marrying into your family, which caused you to be humiliated alongside me and become the laughingstock of the Smith family. But I’m back today, three years later! I’ll definitely make up for all I owed you in the past three years by a hundredfold! From today onward, I’ll make certain that no one will ever dare to scorn you! I want this world to genuflect to you!”

He then started making his way to the Smith residence with the vague recollection he had in his memories.

But when he was halfway there, he bumped into a middle-aged woman who had just stepped out from a massage parlor.

Her face was caked with heavy makeup, but it still couldn’t conceal the tons of wrinkles on her face.

“Would you like to come in and have some fun, handsome? It’ll only cost you a hundred, and you can choose whatever service you’d like! So, how about it? Are you interested?”
