My Billionaire Husband

The little old man also became flustered after hearing these words.

“Are you really not lying to me? This matter is no joke, this is a task assigned to me from above, if we fail to complete it, or miss it, we can all be punished.”

George waved his hand impatiently, “Anyway, this is the result I found out, if you really don’t believe me, go over and have a look yourself.”

The little old man still did not want to believe this fact, so he came to the scene with George.

The little old man looked at the cracked ground and said in annoyance, “Look at the way this place has been ravaged, how could it have been like this originally? Someone must have done it on purpose, how could you have been so easily fooled?”

George said with an embarrassed look at the little old man in front of him.

“It’s because I just slapped it here.”

“Don’t worry, the truth should be right, otherwise who among the entire Pompeii imperial family is capable of exerting this level of palm power?”

“…”

Although the little old man didn’t really believe that what George said was true either, this was the only situation that could be justified.

“OK, in that case, we’ll report it directly to the top.”

The little old man was very helpless, not that he didn’t want to continue to look deeper into the matter, rather, it is because the place has indeed been broken by George, and there is no point in continuing to look deeper.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Leo was not far away and couldn’t help but smile as he watched the two men looking at the bricks on the floor.

“I’m really sorry, General George, it’s not that I want to use you, but I have to do so, otherwise, there will be trouble.”

“But is it because of that elixir that my strength will progress so much in a short period of time?”

Leo was still deep in thought, when his own casual strike was so powerful that it was truly something that Leo himself had not guessed.

“No, I must go and get this matter investigated, otherwise what if there are any side effects?”

With that, Leo left the place and went to the Pompeii imperial family’s ancient book collection pavilion.

“Hope I can find something here.”

Not everyone can enter the Book Depository, and Leo’s current status is considered very high in the Pompeii imperial family, so he has this qualification.

However, as the day went on, there was nothing to be found.

“It looks like it couldn’t be found.”

Just as disappointment set in, a book suddenly fell out.

This well-worn book has been turned over countless times by Leo.

Every time he saw this book, it was incredibly worn and missing many pages, so he didn’t read more.

Only this time, the book fell in front of Leo once again, before Leo bent down and picked it up.

“Forget it, just read the last one, I don’t know what I’m going to do when I go out anyway.”

With that, Leo opened the book and hastily flipped it up.

Leo has really discovered an incredible secret.

It is written that there is a legendary elixir that, when eaten, gives one great strength.

And without cultivation, it can obtain internal energy by absorbing essence.

In fact, at the beginning, Leo also saw these contents, only that he didn’t think too much about them, but as he looked further back, Leo found that this effect was actually exactly the same as what Muto had said.

“Can’t be the same thing I ate.”

“But it also says in the book that people who take this elixir usually die, so why am I fine if I take it?”

Just as Leo wanted to continue, he found that the back of the book had all been torn up

“Was it deliberately torn?”

“But thankfully, at least it proves that I did get my power from that elixir, I wonder what will happen when Muto finds out about this?”

Leo put the book back and prepared to leave.

It was at this time that a sophisticated voice suddenly came through.

“After hiding here all day and reading only half of it, aren’t you curious?”

Leo looked back at the old man.

In fact, Leo had already noticed his presence long ago.

It was only assumed that he was the caretaker inside the collection, so he didn’t pay specific attention to it.

“Old-timer, I want to read it, but this book only has so many pages, and I can’t find the rest.”

Suddenly, the old man laughed loudly, interrupting Leo’s preparations to leave.

“Coincidentally, I have the rest of this book.”

After hearing these words, Leo suddenly became somewhat curious.

Although he didn’t know what was written on the back, he was interested when he heard the old man say so.

“Can you show me the remaining pages at the back?”

After hearing this, the old man smiled faintly and said nothing again.

Leo then understood what he meant and said.

“Say, how much do you need?”

The old man cursed, “Brat, I don’t want your money, I just want to see your internal energy.”

“I took that elixir you took years ago, only it didn’t have the same effect as yours. In the end, it backfired on me, I was able to stay alive, but I lost my martial arts skills, and now I can only watch over the Book Pavilion here.”

Hearing this, Leo looked at the old man in front of him with an incredulous expression.

“May I have your name, please?”
