Chapter 1281

Callan put his finger on her pulse.

After a while, he retracted his hand and said, “Well, it’s true the Yin and Yang in your body are

unbalanced. There’s too much Cold Energy within your body.”

“Teacher, please accept my respect.”

Cynthia immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Callan.

Callan frankly accepted it.

After Cynthia was done with the formalities, Callan smiled and said, “Alright, that’s enough. Since

you’re my apprentice now, I should give you a gift as your teacher. However, I didn’t bring anything with

me, so I’ll owe it to you for now. I’ll make up for it next time.”

“Thank you!”

Cynthia stood up.

Quincy, who was standing aside, looked envious.

She looked at James and said, “James, find me a teacher too! I want to learn martial arts as well.”

James rolled his eyes and said, “You’re fine. Why do you suddenly want to learn martial arts? It’s

tough, and you won’t be able to bear the hardships.”

“Not necessarily.”

Quincy looked at Thea and said, “Thea can bear it. Why can’t I?”

“Since you’ve got the heart to learn martial arts, I’ll accept you as my apprentice.” Callan was in a good

mood.

James hurriedly said, “Why are you still standing there in a daze? Hurry and show your respect to your

teacher.”

Quincy regained her senses and immediately knelt on the ground. “Thank you, Teacher.”

“Alright. You can get up.”

Quincy got back on her feet.

James looked at Quincy and Cynthia, saying, “You guys should study hard. He’s an incredible senior

figure in the ancient martial art world. It’s not an exaggeration to say he’s the number one in this world.”

He was not exaggerating.

Callans‘ capabilities were enough to earn him the title of number one.

In his heyday, no one in the world was his opponent, not even Thomas.

“Then, what about me?”

Tiara stepped forward and looked at Quincy and Cynthia with envy on her pretty face.

Callan looked at her and asked, “Do you also want to learn martial arts?”

Tiara nodded and said, “Everyone’s learning martial arts. I can’t just do nothing.”

She looked at Callan timidly and asked, “I–Is that okay?”

Callan nodded and said, “Having one more isn’t too many either.”

Hearing this, Tiara was overjoyed and quickly knelt on the ground. “Alright, you can get up.”

James said with a smile, “Mr. Owen, sorry for troubling you.”

Callan waved his hand and said, “It’s not troublesome. Besides, it’s too formal for you to keep calling

me Mr. Owen. I’ll call you James, and you can call me Callan.”

James smiled and said, “Callan.”

“That’s right.” Callan said with a smile, “Don’t worry. I’ll teach them well. The martial art manuals I’ve

mastered, if not the best, are still the best in this world.”

“Alright. That would be great. It’s getting late, so I’ll head off first.” James bid farewell and left.

He walked out of Cynthia’s villa.

Thea asked, “Honey, do you trust him? He’s the Gu Sect’s Supreme Leader.”

James nodded and said, “Yeah, I trust him.”

“But…” Thea hesitantly said, “Everyone in the Gu Sect is all about beating and killing. Their reputation

in the ancient martial world is horrible.”

James said, “In doing things and judging people, you can’t rely on outside rumors.”

Hearing this, Thea did not say anything more.

“Thea, I’d like to visit my family cemetery.” James suddenly changed the subject.

He was delighted to learn that his family members were not dead.

However, he could not see through his grandfather and figure out his thoughts.

He wanted to dig up their graves to see if there were remains of his family and verify whether his

grandfather was telling the truth.
