Chapter 2547

Clint patiently explained at this time, "Tell me about your past."

"My past?"

"Yes!"

"My past..."

Whistler was a name given by the masters on Hydra Hill. He did not have a name before that. He was very grateful to Casimir and was absolutely loyal to him, which was why he was concerned about Linden's murder.

It was not difficult to see that the attack was meant for Casimir.

Whistler felt that there was nothing much to talk about his past.

In the first ten years, he lived in confusion. He did not know who his father was. However, his mother left him after he was born.

He had met his mother several times before the age of ten. Every time, she was beaten badly by different drunk men. The reason was very simple—she did not manage to satisfy them.

When Whistler was a child, he was very good at controlling his emotions. However, he could not make up his mind about what he wanted to do or how he wanted to do things.

Each time, he would run to the old blind man who adopted him.

The old blind man took out a tortoiseshell and copper coins for divination and then guided Whistler on what to do. Just like that, the old man and the young child spent eight years together wandering on the streets.

When Whistler was eight years old, the old blind man passed away. However, the old blind man left with no regrets. His ability was successfully inherited by Whistler.

Whistler wandered for another two years until he met Casimir, who came down the mountain.

Before becoming a Heavenly Master, one had to leave the mountain for cultivation practice. That was when Casimir met Whistler. He was surprised that this ten- year-old child could use true energy and arrays so skillfully. After he heard that Whistler was a wanderer, he wanted to take the boy under his tutelage.

However, Whistler refused. In his words, he already had a master and would never submit to a second one.

Another year passed, and he witnessed many human sufferings. He was kind- hearted and helped whenever he could, but at this time, he also discovered that human desires were like an avalanche.

The more people came to him asking for help, the more he began to resent it. He knew very well that he was just there to fulfill desires, and it was easy to destroy this false flattery.

Once, he deliberately said the wrong thing.

A man came to seek wealth, and Whistler told him that he would have great luck this year. However, how could a lazy person who only dreamed of sudden wealth all day long seize any opportunities?

Hence, a year passed, and the man lost everything he owned. He came to Whistler in anger.

"Why did this happen? What's going on? Shouldn't I be rich?"

"Yes."

"Then why did I lose even the last of my money?"

"Was there something wrong with what I said? I said you'd get what you deserved."

"You lied to me!"

"I didn't."

"Everyone, come here! Come and see! This bastard is a liar! He seeks wealth and murder! He has tricked us!"

"Sure enough, that's it..."
