The Legendary Man Chapter 480
Insane
Jonathan’s mind raced as he looked at Quinton’s menacing and vicious gaze.
After acquiring the Ancient Sacred Dragon Technique, Jonathan had been pondering whether there were beings similar to him in the world.
People like Zachary and the others who attained the title of King of War were certainly powerful and adept at fighting.
That being said, they were still undoubtedly mortals. Their training was merely to polish their external strengths instead of cultivation.
Jonathan’s meeting with Quinton that day had finally verified his hypothesis.
However, Jonathan was unsure whether it was due to Quinton’s cultivation method or because he was turning into a devil that the latter’s aura disappeared from time to time, giving him an unusually malicious and bizarre vibe.
“Interesting. According to the reports from my investigation, you are supposed to be an outgoing and cheery heir to an affluent family. Unexpectedly, the real you is a madman,” Jonathan uttered while looking at the bloodstains on Quinton’s body.
At the same time, Quinton had already completely adopted his true personality.
Standing on the lane, Quinton yanked away his shirt, revealing numerous scars of various sizes on his chest.
“I had to put on the pretense,” Quinton replied sinisterly while warming up his limbs.
“Ever since I was tested to have the qualification to cultivate, I was trapped in a secret underground basement for a year and a half cultivating. F*ck! I wanted to become an artist, but they forced me to cultivate. Those people would hang me up in midair whenever I stopped and beat me up. In a year and a half, I entered the Precelestial Realm and rose to the Postcelestial Realm, all for the sake of killing that b*stard! He was just a lowly servant. How dare he order me around?”
At that moment, Quinton appeared to have entirely lost his sanity. Half-arching his body, he seemed to be muttering to himself but was simultaneously recounting his past to Jonathan.
Quinton was indeed too lonely.
He had never mentioned those experiences to others. To put it more precisely, no one could understand the impact of the underground life he led in the one and a half years on him.
Right then, facing Jonathan, Quinton unleashed all his bottled-up feelings.
“Jonathan, since you do not hesitate to commit a murder, I suppose you understand the thrill of killing others?”
Quinton stared at Jonathan in anticipation, desperately hoping the latter would give him an affirmative response as he could sense Jonathan’s overwhelming power.
Jonathan’s strength imposed an indescribable pressure on Quinton.
Therefore, Quinton wished Jonathan could agree with him on that matter.
In that way, he could at least acquire a sliver of comfort after all his slaughters.
Still, under Quinton’s intent gaze, Jonathan slightly shook his head. “I do end others’ lives, but I do not take the lives of innocent people. I only kill those who deserve to die. For example, I will have to eliminate you if you try to kill me.”
“Me?” The corner of Quinton’s mouth curled into a disappointed smile. “So, you want to stop me from killing others by killing me? I thought we were the same kind of people. I guess I was wrong. Do you know that the b*stard trembled in fear and begged me for mercy when I wrapped my fist tightly around his throat? He was even willing to give everything up just to stay alive. From that moment onward, I understood that as long as I was sufficiently powerful, I could control everything. Jonathan, although I do not know why Father desires to get rid of you, I now give you the opportunity to yield to me. If you do so, I can allow you to survive.”
Quinton clenched his fists and regarded Jonathan expressionlessly, waiting for the latter’s answer.
Jonathan’s reply was rather straightforward. He merely smiled faintly and said, “I’ll give you a chance to pick your options too. You can kneel and beg for mercy. If you do that, I can pardon you from facing death.”
“Looks like there is no room for discussion.” Quinton chuckled. The next second, his body was in the air, charging in Jonathan’s direction.
“Go to hell!” he bellowed, stiffening his right hand and jabbing directly at Jonathan’s neck.
