"You’re breaking my heart, old man!" Benedict sat on the couch opposite and said disapprovingly, "Are those little farts as talented in martial arts as I am?"
He was very confident in his martial arts talent. He started cultivation at the age of five, achieved the ninth division of the Energy Cultivation Realm at the age of eight, became a grandmaster at the age of 11, a great-grandmaster at the age of 15, and reached the Profound Reality Realm at the age of 20.
Now at the age of 25, he had reached the late stage of the Mystique Loyalty Realm. If his great-grandfather had not hidden him, he would have become famous long ago.
Anton looked sharply at him and asked, "Are you planning to join the Celestial Dragon Squadron?"
Benedict shuddered. "Old man, did you eavesdrop on our chat?"
This place was more than ten kilometers away from the street where the group had dined, but with the old man's cultivation level, he could completely monitor Benedict’s every word and move.
Anton said calmly, "I don't care whether the others join the Celestial Dragon Squadron, but you are a member of the Varhess family, and your future can only be developed in the Divine Strategy Squadron!"
Benedict did not dare to disobey his great-grandfather. He lowered his head and responded calmly, "Understood!"
Anton put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray on the table, then stood up and left with his hands behind his back. He just took a step forward and disappeared from the living room.
Benedict leaned on the couch and sighed.
He knew very well that his great-grandfather was training him as his successor!
…
The next day, at 10:00 am, Nash and Tatiana were woken up by the phone.
It was Tatiana's.
She took the phone and glanced at it. It was her uncle. She answered the call in a daze, "Hello..."
"Tatiana, is Delilah with you?"
"No!"
"That's weird. Where did that brat go?"
"Maybe she went to school," Tatiana said in a daze.
"I'll call the school and ask. Please resume your sleep!"
Tatiana hung up, then continued to fall asleep holding Nash's arm.
Nash heard the conversation between Tatiana and her uncle. He could not help but wonder, ‘Did she secretly run away last night?’
