Chapter 951
Maxine was adopted by Tobias.
Tobias taught her everything she knew about martial arts from the time she was a child.It was not in her nature to disobey him.
There was no doubt in her mind that this day would come.
However, things were progressing faster than she expected.
Tobias leaned back in his chair and let out a wistful sigh.
"My first encounter with the Blithes was 20 years ago when I went to the Enchanted Forest in search of medicinal materials.The person I met at that time was Ezra Blithe.We exchanged blows over a rare medicinal herb, and it was there where I witnessed his otherworldly skills..."
Tobias’ eyes glazed over as he recalled the past.
The battle 20 years ago came back to him.
Even after 20 years, the memory was fresh to him as if it had taken place just yesterday.
"The Blithe Fist of Abomination is an extraordinary technique.That fight almost cost me my life.For the past 20 years, I’ve tried to come up with various ways to counter it, but to no avail."
Maxine immediately followed up.
"Grandpa, if I’m understanding correctly, you want me to marry into the Blithes and obtain their support for the upcoming martial arts conference.Do you want me to utilize this opportunity to infiltrate their family and steal the Blithe Fist of Abomination technique? "
Tobias nodded, eyes twinkling with ambition.
"It'd be best if we’re able to win them over.In the event that we cannot do so and we end up incurring their wrath, they will make a terrible enemy.In order to win a hard-fought battle, one must have a thorough knowledge of their enemy.Obtaining their technique will give us one measure to counter them with."
"Alright.I understand."
Maxine nodded.
Tobias waved his hand and said, "You must be exhausted after working all this while.Go down and have a rest."
"I shall take my leave then, grandpa."
Maxine nodded and walked away.
Meanwhile, in Cansington...
Once he returned home, James immediately fell into a deep slumber.He slept all the way until evening.
After groggily rolling out of bed, James walked down the stairs.
Thea had arrived earlier and was having a chat with Cynthia, sharing a bit of her cultivation knowledge.
Despite being at the third rank and having some basic understanding of cultivation, she was more knowledgeable than Cynthia who had just started off.
Thea’s face lit up when she saw James walking down the stairs.She called out to him sweetly, "Honey! You're finally awake."
