The Legendary Man novel Chapter 561

Chapter 561 Fog

Jonathan gingerly moved his hands again after the soreness had melted away, wariness still evident in his eyes. It had been three days since he left. Despite Jason’s assurance that Sophia would be free of mishaps in ten days, she remained in a coma. Thus, he came out searching for medicine and would return to her as soon as possible.

Now, Jonathan’s cultivation level was weakened, and he couldn’t perform God Realm cultivation. He wasn’t afraid to go toe to toe with Irving, but Irving’s spiritual energy was unusually strong and would pose a problem to him.

Besides, if Irving had a formidable backup, he might sustain more injuries again. Jonathan would quite literally die of guilt if the window to find the medicine closed because of a fight with Irving.

His spiritual energy gradually quietened down at that thought. Giving Irving a long, unfathomable look, Jonathan’s feet left the ground as if he was weightless, and he drifted into the fog.

“Stop!” Irving wanted to give chase, but he stopped short at the edge of the fog with a dazed expression.

The strange fog could inhibit spiritual energy and spiritual sense. His Grandmaster Realm spiritual sense could only expand three meters before reaching its limit.

The moment Jonathan was swallowed by the fog, he simply turned in a direction, knowing that he wouldn’t run into Irving here.

He had managed to get rid of Irving for now.

“Irving, did you forget that when we left the sect, the sect master advised you to stay humble and not pick a fight until you reached the advanced phase of Grandmaster Realm?” Lauryn stood unmoving and asked him with a frown.

He whipped his head over to her and shot her a wild look. “Lauryn, why didn’t you help me stop Jonathan during the fight? You should know that he’s the biggest threat to the respectable families, right?”

“That’s family business. It has nothing to do with me,” she replied flatly. “I’d never make a move against Jonathan unless they gave me explicit orders.”

Irving raked his gaze up and down her curves and cracked a smile. “I didn’t know you were Mother Teresa. What if Asura’s Office went to war with the families? Do you think the Blackwood family can remain neutral?”

Lauryn’s brows furrowed as she looked at the repugnant smirk on his face.

Irving released all his spiritual energy and strode to her side, exhaling softly and continuing, “Keep this in mind, Lauryn. It’s a sin to be born into a respectable family. Do you believe that being kind, diligent, and frugal would change the outcome? Don’t be foolish. You will still be sacrificed and forced to marry a scum like Jay. No good deed goes unpunished. The sword in your hand, the clothes on your back, everything you used after entering Phantom Sect, including the offering given to Phantom Sect by the Blackwood family—which one of them isn’t stained with blood? So, ditch the Mother Teresa act. The world doesn’t revolve around you. You’d be the first person I’d kill if I were Jonathan.”

He unhurriedly turned around and took a big step into the fog after finishing, right where Jonathan disappeared, intending to trace his footsteps.

Irving appeared to have made up his mind to deal with Jonathan right then and there.

Lauryn stood rooted to the ground with a cold expression.

The fog that had been dispelled by Jonathan and Irving’s fight started to converge again.

“An arranged marriage?” Pain shone in her eyes.

She was a direct descendant and the first daughter of the Blackwood family who was waited on hand and foot. She led a life of envy, much like the princesses in fairy tales, that others wanted.

But what the outsiders didn’t realize was that in a family that favored males over females, she would always be nothing more than a prop for her brother, no matter how exceptional she was.
