The Legendary Man novel Chapter 550

Chapter 550 The Strange Master And Disciple

When Desmond, who was sprawled on the ground, heard the household staff mention Ryan Leiter, hatred filled his eyes.

On the other hand, Carmelo’s right hand jerked as he sat on the couch. The black fog engulfing his fingernails dissipated, and he leaned back in his seat, looking a lot more benevolent than before.

“Get out of here. Next time, if you still fail to complete the task I assign to you, I won’t forgive you easily.”

“Yes, Father.”

Desmond struggled to get up as he replied respectfully. When he finally stood up, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth before turning around to leave with his head lowered.

Ryan just happened to enter the moment the door was pushed open.

“Mr. Jensen,” Ryan lowered his head and greeted while stepping back half a step to allow the other man through the door when they bumped into each other.

Seeing Ryan’s humble demeanor, Desmond merely snorted as he turned away and left.

Only after the other man had disappeared from sight did Ryan straighten his back and enter the room.

Once the household staff had closed the door, he walked over to Carmelo’s side and bowed slightly.

“Master, I had some matters at hand to deal with, so I came late.”

Carmelo gave a dismissive wave as he panted.

“I already received the news just now. It’s about Hubert, right?”

Ryan said flatly, “You’re right. From today onward, there’s no such person named Hubert in Summerbank.”

“You killed him?” Carmelo looked at Ryan in surprise and continued, “Good. A man should have such courage. Unlike my son, who is indecisive when he’s handling matters. He truly can’t be trusted with important matters.”

Although the man opposite him was praising him, Ryan was not even the slightest bit happy.

In the past few days, he had secretly investigated Carmelo after taking over Mirage Plaza.

Carmelo was considered the richest man in Summerbank. His wealth could not be compared to the Gomez family in Lumonburg before the latter’s collapse. Still, to be able to get to where he was in less than thirty years was no easy feat, considering Summerbank was a relatively remote city.

However, through all of Ryan’s investigations, he found that Carmelo was simply a businessman, without any traces of being a cultivator.

If that was the case, the matter of Carmelo healing him seemed a lot stranger.

Ryan Leiter was the new identity of Quinton Gomez.

The Gomez family of Lumonburg had been wiped out because of the fight between the Osborne family and Jonathan. After that, Ryan went to many places before finally arriving at the remote Summerbank.

He initially thought of recovering from his injuries first and cultivating in secret while finding an opportunity for revenge.

However, not long after arriving at Summerbank, he met Carmelo, who had happened to be involved in a car accident. It was after saving Carmelo did Ryan discover that the old man was, in fact, a martial artist.

Despite that, Carmelo’s spiritual energy was very strange, as it came and went spontaneously. There were many times when Ryan even felt that the old man was no different from an ordinary person.

Even so, Carmelo had still managed to use strong spiritual energy to reattach Ryan’s broken arm.

He had even passed on a strange secret technique known as the Soul-Devouring Technique to Ryan.

The secret technique was extremely bizarre, as Ryan needed to feed on other people’s blood essence to cultivate it.

At first, Ryan had found such a technique repulsive, but after encountering a drunk hooligan stirring up trouble, he finally tasted the thrill of his cultivation skyrocketing.

From that day onward, Ryan Leiter managed to make a name for himself in the underground circles of Summerbank.

Ryan believed that some people who had done many evil things deserved to die, and it was their honor to become his nourishment.
