The Legendary Man novel Chapter 729

The Legendary Man Chapter 729-Leslie was sweating profusely as she trekked up the path leading up to Summerbank Mountain.

Her jacket was nowhere to be seen, and she was now only wearing a soaked black short-sleeved T-shirt.

Leslie gripped her gun as she glanced at the temple on the highest peak of the mountain. Taking a deep breath, she continued her ascent.

Right then, a figure leaped up from the foot of the mountain and landed right behind Leslie.

“Who is it?” Leslie whirled around and pointed her gun at the newcomer without hesitation.

Upon recognizing Jonathan, she crumpled onto the step, drained of all her strength. “Mr. Goldstein…”

Leslie stared at the bloody wound on Jonathan’s chest in a daze.

“Did you see Ryan?” she asked.

“I’ve killed him. You can close the case now,” came Jonathan’s calm answer. “Ryan Leiter is his fake identity. His real name is Quinton Gomez, and he’s from Lumonburg. You can check it out.”

Before he could walk away, Leslie called out, “Wait a minute.”

She reached out and tugged at the corner of his shirt.

Jonathan looked down at her. From his angle, he could see her cleavage through the gap in her collar.

“You said you’ve killed him, and I trust you. In order to close the case, we need you to provide the body to us.”

“The body is gone.”

Jonathan shook Leslie’s hand off and headed up the mountain. After taking two steps, he halted in his tracks and turned over his shoulder to look at Leslie.

“By the way, Leslie, do you want to get in touch with the real core of Chanaea?”

The real core of Chanaea?

Leslie was startled to hear that question. After all, she was a unique figure in Summerbank, as her father was the mayor. She had also gained a firm foothold in the Serious Crime Unit because of her work on the missing persons’ case.

As of now, she was aware of many core secrets including those of cultivators.

However, Jonathan’s question was pretty vague.

“What do you mean by that?” Leslie asked hesitantly.

Jonathan turned around to look at Leslie. “My name is Jonathan Goldstein. In addition to being a cultivator, I am also known as Asura. I am currently the leader of Asura’s Office.”

Leslie’s eyes turned as wide as saucers.

Asura’s Office!

Everyone knew about the strong force that had only emerged in Chanaea less than three years ago.

Ordinary citizens knew that Chanaea had an undefeatable god of war, but as the daughter of a government official, Leslie often listened to her father recount tales of Asura’s victories.

Asura was known for restoring peace in Chanaea with his extreme means.

Asura was known for restoring peace in Chanaea with his extreme means.

Despite her suspicions about Jonathan’s influence, she was unaware of the extent of his power.

“Asura…” Leslie rose to her feet incredulously. “Uh, what do you need me to do?”

“I don’t know what you can do for me either,” Jonathan replied calmly with his brows furrowed.

Jonathan had actually taken notice of Leslie at the auction for the opportunity to be the first to offer prayers at Triplex Manifesta.

It was the first time he had seen someone using their own money to solve a case.
