Chapter 51: Roderick, Are You Still Playing Dumb?!

“Forget about these complicated formalities.”

Elder Almos waved his hand indifferently and said.

“May I ask, Elder, who is this young master?”

Roderick looked at the young man in a suit next to Elder Almos again.

“This is the eldest son of our Begonia family, Jerry.”

“He is actually the eldest son of the Begonia family, no wonder!”

“Please follow me. Master of Black Dragon Tower, please bring me that bottle of good red wine, I will open it for you two to sober up.”

Jerry nodded slightly when he saw Roderick’s flattering manner.

The two followed Roderick and walked toward the patriarch tower of the Li Fire Sect.

Looking at the environment of the Li Fire Sect, Jerry put his hands behind his back and said with his eyes slightly narrowed.

“So this is the Li Fire Sect? It looks like trash. Was the Master of Ultimate Sword really born here?”

Soon, under Roderick’s reception, the three of them entered the patriarch tower.

Roderick brought them goblets and respectfully poured the red wine for the two of them. He then opened his mouth and asked.

“Respected Sirs, may I know why you suddenly came to our Li Fire Sect?”

Almos pondered for a moment, and then said, “Patriarch, have you heard of Master of Ultimate Sword who is currently in the limelight?”

Roderick was stunned.

Master of Ultimate Sword?

He was the most famous person in the empire currently, how could he not know.

But what did this have to do with the people from the Begonia family suddenly coming to Li Fire Sect?

After thinking for a while, Roderick finally answered, “My lords, of course I have heard of Master of Ultimate Sword.”

“It is rumored that he is a newly born sage in our empire. He uses an unknown silver longsword and is extremely powerful.”

Almos nodded and agreed with Roderick’s reply.

“What you said is right.”

“Although this Master of Ultimate Sword is only a newly born sage of the empire, judging from the terrifying power of the sword that he slashed out in the far north, he is only slightly weaker than the old sages of the empire.”

“By the way, Patriarch, have you heard such news recently?”

“Elder, what news?”

Roderick asked in confusion.

Almos took a deep breath and calmly said to Roderick.

“It is rumored that this new sage in the empire, the Master of Ultimate Sword, is a member of your Li Fire Sect.”

The Master of Ultimate Sword actually came from Li Fire Sect?!

After Almos said that, not only was Roderick stunned, the eight tower masters and Natasha were also stunned.

What’s going on?!

Was this famous Master of Ultimate Sword really from our Li Fire Sect? How come we didn’t know about it?!

“Elder Almos, is the Master of Ultimate Sword that you mentioned really from our Li Fire Sect?”

Roderick swallowed his saliva and said in disbelief.

Before Almos could speak, Jerry said coldly from the side.

“If this is not true, why did we come all the way here to your Li Fire Sect?”

Roderick didn’t know what to do for a moment.

“Could it be…”

“Don’t tell me the patriarch doesn’t know?”

Almos frowned and said coldly.

“Or are you actually pretending to be ignorant?”

“Or I’ll give you a little hint.”

“Back then, when the Vampire’s Gate was preparing to destroy your Li Fire Sect, who was it that helped you solve the crisis of extermination?”

“And who was it that finally went to massacre the entire Vampire’s Gate ?”

Roderick was extremely shocked.

“What?!”

“The Vampire’s Gate has already been destroyed?!”

The Li Fire Sect had been in a remote area of the empire for many years. Moreover, Roderick would not leave Li Fire Sect unless there was something special. Therefore, he really did not know that the Vampire’s Gate had already been destroyed.

Then, Roderick reacted.

Could it be that the master of the ultimate sword mentioned by Elder Almos was the mysterious expert of the Li Fire Sect?!

That mysterious expert had already broken through to the Sage realm?!

As he thought of this, Roderick could not help but be very excited.

The few tower masters at the side also looked at each other. At this moment, they had also vaguely guessed something.

And all of this naturally could not escape the eyes of Almos.

He immediately said slowly to Roderick.

“Patriarch, now you should know who I am talking about, right?”

Roderick was violently shaken in his heart. He hurriedly calmed his excitement and did not dare to simply speak for a moment.

Roderick had also heard a little about the master of the ultimate sword. It seemed that he had already offended the Duke of Rosette to death. Moreover, he had also at the same time offended the other three great families.

But Roderick still didn’t know why the Begonia family would send people to their Li Fire Sect.

Could it be that they wanted to find out the information and then give it to the Rosette family as a favor?

Roderick was still clear about the severity of the situation.

The master of the ultimate sword had saved Li Fire Sect, so it could be considered as saving their lives.

Therefore, the master of the ultimate sword could be considered half a member of Li Fire Sect.

Naturally, Roderick wouldn’t reveal the secrets of the master of the ultimate sword to the members of the Begonia family.

Thus, Roderick gritted his teeth and said to Almos.

“Elder Almos, I truly do not know who the master of the ultimate sword is. Please ask someone else.”

Right now, Roderick actually wasn’t lying.

Although he knew that Lin Lei might have a relationship with the mysterious master of the ultimate sword, and it was possible that Lin Lei was able to contact the mysterious master, in actual fact, Roderick didn’t know the true identity of the master of the ultimate sword.

But of course, Roderick naturally wouldn’t tell the other tower masters about this. Only Natasha knew about this.

The other tower masters, upon seeing Roderick’s actions, all lowered their heads in tacit agreement, not saying a single word.

Elder Almos’s eyes slowly turned cold as well.

He said, “Patriarch, someone saw the master of the ultimate sword who destroyed the Vampire’s Gate. He was wearing the clothes of your Li Fire Sect.”

“Roderick, are you still playing dumb with me?”

Boom!

The terrifying pressure of the half sage realm immediately burst out from Almos’s body.

The pressure was pressing towards Roderick fiercely.

The floor under Roderick’s feet instantly shattered, and the pressure on his knees increased violently. Almost immediately he was about to kneel down.

In the face of such a terrifying pressure, fine beads of sweat appeared on Roderick’s forehead.

But Roderick still gritted his teeth and said to Almos.

“Elder Almos, I really don’t know.”

Roderick had already decided to keep this secret in his heart forever. Even if Elder Almos directly broke through his mind to search through his memories, he wouldn’t be able to come to any conclusions.

As he himself didn’t know any news about the master of the ultimate sword!

Almos frowned and slowly withdrew his aura as he spoke to Roderick.

“Patriarch, have you misunderstood anything?”

“I have come on behalf of the Begonia family this time. I do not have any bad thoughts towards the master of the ultimate sword. Instead, I want to form an alliance with the master of the ultimate sword.”

“The four great families have always wanted to gobble our Begonia family. The enemy of the enemy is naturally a friend. I think that being a patriarch, you should know this principle, right?”

“Now that the master of ultimate sword has completely offended the four great families, I’m afraid that the revenge of the four great families will follow one after another.”

“Forming an alliance with our Begonia family is the best choice at the moment!”

Roderick looked at Almos’s spouting nonsense and couldn’t help but feel a little amused in his heart.

His words were really nice to hear.

He said that they were an alliance, but in fact, he was just trying to draw out the Master of Ultimate Sword!

Moreover, he was just a small sect master of the Li Fire Sect. He didn’t have any qualifications to help the Master of Ultimate Sword, who had already become a sage, decide anything.

“That’s great, Elder Almos. But the problem is that I really don’t know anything.”

Roderick pretended to be regretful.

Almos pondered, and his expression changed several times looking at Roderick.

He didn’t expect that this Roderick, who had always been respectful to them, was actually such a tough nut to crack!
