Aside from shock and terror, the incident tonight also made her feel a little strange.
She couldn't figure out what kind of person could have targeted Julian so precisely.
Moreover, the other party had struck in such a sharp and precise manner without leaving any clues behind.
She had also suspected Charlie before.
However, her thoughts would always detour and return to what Julian had said before.
She had always felt that although Charlie was very mysterious, he shouldn't be that powerful.
She recalled what her grandfather had said over the phone. Master Yant speculated that the opponent that Julian had encountered was a Dark Realm expert.
An expert of the Great Perfection Realm of the Illuminating Realm was already unheard of, and an expert of the Dark Realm, which was one big level higher compared to the Illuminating Realm as a whole, was even rarer in this world.
This made Kathleen feel even more impressed with Aurous Hill. She subconsciously used her fingers to fiddle with the water in the bathtub as she muttered to herself, 'I really can’t imagine that a city that can only be ranked tenth in Oskia would actually be hiding a Dark Realm expert... And aside from the Dark Realm expert, there’s also Master Wade who could take out the Rejuvenating Pill... T o think this small Aurous Hill is a place where many talented and outstanding individuals are hidden and concealed...’ As Kathleen thought about this, another thought suddenly flashed through her mind.
She frowned and muttered softly, 'Based on the clues I've obtained from various channels, the fact that Charlie Wade has the Rejuvenating Pill can already basically be confirmed. This pill can not only bring people back to life, but it can also make them twenty years younger. If it really has such an effect, this proves that the pill contains very powerful energy...’
'Mr. Larson mentioned that the reason some martial arts practitioners can have physical qualities far beyond that of ordinary people is because they have mastered essential qi, which is a type of energy ordinary people cannot master.’
'The energy contained in Charlie Wade’s Rejuvenating Pill cannot be worse off compared to a martial arts practitioner's essential qi, right? There are many martial arts practitioners in this world, but only Charlie Wade has the Rejuvenating Pill!'
'The power of the Rejuvenating Pill and a martial arts practitioner's essential qi might not be the same thing, but it’s difficult to compare which is better or worse. But in terms of rarity, the power from the Rejuvenating Pill is much rarer and even more precious compared to a martial arts' practitioner's essential qi!'
‘Hiring a six-star martial artist would cost from tens of millions of US dollars up to a hundred million US dollars annually. But if you want to buy a Rejuvenating Pill, it'd cost at least tens of billions of US dollars! From this fact alone, the Rejuvenating Pill has more power and worth.' 'In that case... Charlie has power of an even higher value. Why isn’t he strong? Isn't this a bit too strange?'
Kathleen also remembered that Julian had told her how a martial arts practitioner an inch higher in the realm would be an inch stronger. People with high cultivation would be able to see through the exact stage of those with a lower cultivation with just a single glance. Since Julian saw that Charlie didn't have any cultivation, Charlie wasn't a martial arts practitioner.
At first, Kathleen didn't doubt Julian’s words. After all, Julian was a specialist in martial arts. Since Charlie was a Feng Shui master, it would be difficult for him to have any achievements in the martial arts field.
However, after Kathleen looked back and analyzed this matter again, she felt that there was a bug in this logic. A logical loophole, to be more precise. Since Charlie was in possession of a pill containing great power, such as the Rejuvenating Pill, how could it be possible that he didn't have the slightest cultivation?
This was just as strange as a person possessing a mountain of gold and silver, yet had not a single penny in his bank account!
