Chapter 430
“Why will we do that?” Elder Young shot Gilbert a pointed look.
Confused, Gilbert said, “Dad, Leon’s just an orphan, who doesn’t have the support of a powerful family
and has been married once. He isn’t worthy of Iris! We can’t let Iris be with him!”
“All heroes start from nowhere! If he can rise to the top, why should it matter that he is an orphan? As
for the part where he was married once, it’s not that big of a deal in modern society!” Elder Young said
calmly.

“That’s enough! He has no rivals among martial artists his age. You said so yourself. If he’s capable of that, we can afford to give him a chance.” Elder Young said, before narrowing his eyes warily at the
bush behind them. “Who’s there?”
“It’s me. I was worried that you would get thirsty, so I brought you some tea.” Daisy walked over with a cup
of tea.
“Oh, set it down on the table.” Elder Young pointed at the stone table next to him and Daisy obeyed.
“Dad, I overheard your discussion with Gilbert earlier. I agree with Gilbert that something is off with this
Leon boy and it might not be in Iris’s best interest to date him.” Daisy said hesitantly.
“Something’s off? What’s off with Leon?” Both Elder Young and Gilbert turned to stare at Daisy.
“Just think about it. Leon’s just an orphan and someone like him shouldn’t have the means to train as a
martial artist, yet he did and managed to reach the peak of the Innate State! That’s not logical!”
The two immediately realized what they were missing.
Leon would have been trained in methods that were as powerful as the ones owned by the Four Major
Families for him to reach the peak of the Innate State at such a young age. However, powerful
methods were often extremely rare and the families that owned them would never train an outsider with
their ways.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf Leon was a member of a certain powerful family, it would make sense that he was given access to training; but since he was merely an orphan, he should not have the means to train at all.
According to the Young Family’s investigation, Leon was a known good–for–nothing when he married
Marilyn three years ago. If he truly was a skilled martial artist, why would he act like a useless man
despite the humiliation?
Everything pointed to the conclusion that there was more to Leon than he was showing.
Both Elder Young and Gilbert fell into silence as they felt skeptical about Leon.
“Also, Leon was the one who rescued Iris from the kidnappers before this. If he is that powerful, it
shouldn’t be that difficult for him to capture two kidnappers alive! Yet, he killed them, cutting off all
leads to who was the culprit! Doesn’t that sound strange to you?” Daisy said.
