LORD CHESTER COMES BACK

Badfella Stannard, who had been by Jun Chester’s side, couldn’t remember the last time he had seen Jun Chester so spirited. He sensed that something was off, as Jun Chester’s gaze upon Bruce Wells was as if he were looking at a piece of uncut jade.

“Could this kid be a cultivating prodigy?” Jun Chester asked with a faint smile.

“A cultivating prodigy? It’s more than that!” Badfella Stannard felt puzzled after hearing this.

At that moment, Bruce Wells, who had spent over twenty years learning to stand upright and even run, returned to the group. He first stood before Riordan and Stacey Wells, then knelt down.

“Father! Mother! You must not have had a single easy day in the past twenty-two years!” The Wells couple was already incredibly emotional, feeling as if they were in a dream.

They both had a thought: “Is this… our son?”

Stacey Wells, trembling, reached out to touch Bruce’s cheek. “Bruce?”

Bruce looked up, his eyes red. “Mom.”

Stacey Wells hugged Bruce’s head tightly. “My son! I’ve been waiting for this day for twenty-two years! You’ve finally… stood up!”

Holding Bruce’s head, Stacey Wells sobbed uncontrollably. Riordan Wells, his body shaking, watched his wife and son, tears streaming down his face like a broken dam. Landon Fuller, witnessing the scene, couldn’t help but shed tears as well.

Even Badfella Stannard, who was known for his coldheartedness, felt moved. Jun Chester didn’t cry, but his heartstrings couldn’t help but tremble as he watched the mother and son, reminded of his own mother.

Stacey Wells finally managed to suppress her emotions, helped Bruce up, and pointed at Jun Chester. “Bruce, the person you should be most grateful to is Mr. Chester! He saved you! Your father and I may have given you life, but Mr. Chester gave you a second chance! Without him, there would be no today for you!”

Bruce looked at Jun Chester and bowed deeply. “Bruce Wells thanks Mr. Chester for saving my life!”

Jun Chester smiled at Bruce. “No need for that.”

Despite his words, Bruce continued to bow, his body trembling slightly. He was extremely grateful and couldn’t find the words to express it.

When Bruce bowed for the third time, Jun Chester reached out and helped him up. “Bruce, are you willing to become my disciple?”

Bruce was stunned, as were Riordan and Stacey Wells. Jun Chester had mentioned this earlier while treating Bruce, but they had thought he was joking. They never expected Jun Chester to actually want to take Bruce as his apprentice! This was a great honor for the Wells family!

Badfella Stannard and Landon Fuller were also shocked. Jun Chester, who had never voluntarily taught anyone, was now seriously considering Bruce as his true disciple. This was simply unbelievable!

Landon Fuller was also stunned and began to calculate reflexively. Jun Chester’s status should be equal to, if not higher than, Badfella Stannard’s. Now that Jun Chester wanted to take Bruce as his disciple, wouldn’t that mean Bruce’s status would be even higher than theirs?

The Wells couple snapped back to their senses and saw Bruce still in a daze. Riordan Wells hurriedly said, “Bruce, don’t you quickly call Mr. Chester ‘Master’?”

Only then did Bruce come to his senses, looked at Jun Chester, and said, “Master!”

Jun Chester smiled. “Get up.”

He then turned to Badfella Stannard. “Let Lord House know later, and have him bring my Sword of Lambert as a gift for Bruce.”

Badfella Stannard’s face twitched. “That’s… too valuable!”

Landon Fuller, standing nearby, couldn’t help but gasp. The Sword of Lambert was the top-ranked sword in Lordran’s weapon catalog. Was such a treasure just being given away?

Most importantly, the sword that could cut iron like mud was Jun Chester’s weapon? How mysterious was Lord Chester?

Jun Chester simply smiled. “It’s just a sword. What’s valuable or not? Bruce Wells is worth it! Besides, the Sword of Lambert is just a little gift for him. If, in three years, he can achieve even a tenth of my power, I’ll even find a way to pluck stars from the sky for him if he wants!”

Badfella Stannard was at a loss for words.

Being Jun Chester’s apprentice was such a blessing!

Landon Fuller felt disheartened.

If only he could become Jun Chester’s disciple too.

Bruce Wells didn’t know why Jun Chester valued him so much, nor did he understand what the Sword of Lambert meant.

But, one must not defy the master’s orders.

Bruce Wells bowed again.

“Thank you, Master!”

Jun Chester’s smile remained unchanged, as he placed his hand on Bruce Wells’ head, like an immortal bestowing blessings.

Bruce Wells felt a surge of fierce energy suddenly entering his body from the top of his head!

It was as if he had a new body!

Unbeknownst to Bruce Wells, his eyes suddenly shone like two lit light bulbs!

Riordan Wells and his wife witnessed the events and forgot to even breathe.

They felt as if…

They had witnessed a miracle!

What was happening?

How could this be?

As for Jun Chester, his hair moved as though there was a breeze.

It was as if an immortal had descended to earth!

Badfella Stannard saw what happened and finally realized something.

Jun Chester…

Had he already broken through that realm?

The Resonance beyond the Luminescence stage’s limit?

Otherwise, how could he release his energy and even transfer it into another person’s body?

As for Landon Fuller.

He was so shocked he couldn’t make a sound.

When Jun Chester withdrew his hand, Bruce Wells’ eyes returned to normal.

Jun Chester asked with a smile.

“How do you feel?”

It took Bruce Wells a while to think of a word.

“Like divine assistance!”

Jun Chester’s spirit soared.

“Aiming high, you’ll be one of those breaking through the mysterious strength in the future!”

“Take good care of yourself, and strive to catch up with me in ten years. Then, we can have an exciting fight!”

“Being invincible is too lonely!”

With that, Jun Chester left with a laugh, hands behind his back.

It had been so many years.

He hadn’t been this happy in a long time.

Behind him, Badfella Stannard’s eyes widened, and he trembled.

“Emp… Emptiness?”

“Emptiness above Resonance?”

Jun Chester heard this and turned to look at Badfella Stannard, the arrogance in his eyes reaching its peak.

“You’re wrong!”

“Emptiness can only barely be considered my opponent!”

Even though Riordan Wells and his wife didn’t understand what the two were talking about, they felt it was an immense honor to know Jun Chester!

Suddenly, Riordan Wells remembered something and wanted to express his gratitude to Jun Chester!

But before he could catch up and offer all of the Wells family’s wealth, Jun Chester had already left gracefully.

Riordan Wells sighed deeply and looked at Bruce Wells.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

“My son, in three days, I will hold a grand feast at the Ocean Hall. At that time, you will formally pay respects to Mr. Chester as your master!”
