My Waste Husband

Chapter 1144

Gardiner threw the surfboard aside and said, "I received news that what you had done in the Recluse Association was forcefully covered up by someone, wasn't it?"

Henry shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything.

"This time, you want the Section Nine to admit defeat? We admit defeat. You want me to help you build up your influence? I also want to help you build up your influence. I'm afraid that it won't be long before there will be rumours in the outside world that you already possess the strength of the Divine Realm." Gardiner laughed. "This time, can I offer to do you a favour?"

Henry snorted and said, "You don't have to do me this favor."

"I know." Gardiner lit another cigarette for himself. "According to your status, if you really start a war, Immortal Lu's followers will definitely start a war against me without hesitation. But if they start a war against me, does it have no effect on you at all? Not to mention your lover is a person from Yan Xia. Your behaviour this time has exposed your identity. Many people have their eyes on you. If you start a fight with us, I'm afraid there will be a lot of pressure from the outside world. There are many rumours about Immortal Lu's tomb."

Henry did not refute. He knew that Gardiner was right. This time he let the underground forces spread the news. Although he could take advantage of the Section Nine to promote his power, he was also exposed. There were a lot of people who coveted the tomb of Master Lu.

But this time, Henry's purpose was to expose himself!

Henry remembered what Verrall told him. Some things had to be faced sooner or later, so it was better to face them in advance.

"If I'm exposed, then let it be. I'll do whatever I can. I'm just risking my life." Henry was ready to risk his life.

The reason why he left Yinzhou this time was to become stronger. Since Henry couldn't find the cultivation method that belonged to him, he could only use the most ancient method.

In a life- and- death situation, he would break through!

"Henry, we can cooperate." Gardiner slowly spat out a smoke ring. "If you still want to build up momentum, I can help you with the Section Nine. What's more, when the situation is chaotic, I can stand on your side without reservation. Do you

understand what I mean?"

Looking at the smoke ring that Gardiner spat out, Henry said in a low voice, "What do you want?"

"The ancestral weapon of our Section Nine." Gardiner took a deep breath and said, "I know. But for what you know now, you don't know where the ancestral weapon of our Section Nine is. You don't even know anything about the ancestral weapons. But what I want is that you can return it to me when you come across it."

Henry smiled. "You are so sure that the ancestral weapon of your Section Nine will fall into my hands."

Gardiner showed a reminiscing look in his eyes. "In those days, Immortal Lu separated the Qi and soldiers of the major clans by force and made the two factions: ancient kungfu family and Qi-refining world. The ancient kungfu family and Qi are two totally different existences. They are equally powerful and there is no difference between the strong and the weak. However, due to some malnutrition, the ancient kungfu families gradually decline, while the clans are gradually becoming stronger. In such a downturn, the birth of the clans has been a foregone conclusion. However, due

to some kind of agreement, they can't show up now. When they show up, the first thing they will do is search for the ancestral weapons. And the location of the ancestral weapons in the world is only known to Immortal Lu!"

Henry shook his head. "Then you're thinking too much. Master Lu didn't tell me these things."

"I didn't think too much." Gardiner said firmly, "Immortal Lu wouldn't choose a person as his disciple randomly. Although I don't know why he didn't teach you Qi-refming, I'm sure that you may have some secrets that you don't know. I'm confident about that. Henry, although you are young, what you have done is very ambitious. Now, you just need to tell me your decision."

Henry suddenly smiled and said, "Give you a promise that I don't know if I can fulfil. I think everyone will accept this deal."

"Then I wish we have a happy cooperation." Gardiner held out his hand to Henry.

"I hope so." Henry smiled and shook hands with him. The cooperation was achieved.

Gardiner picked up the surfboard that had just been thrown on the ground, smiled at Henry and said, "Since we have talked about everything that we should talk about, I won't bother you anymore. Go to talk about the old men. Goodbye."

After Gardiner finished speaking, he carried the surfboard and walked leisurely to the edge of the island.

On the other side of the island, the Xue Family's patriarch and other patriarchs appeared. All the clan members came forward to pay their respects.

Henry did not disturb them. After finishing their work, he served them a cup of wine in a temporary wooden house.

These were all Justus's followers, and Henry had seen them before. It was just that at that time, Henry was still young and immature, far from being as mature as he was now.

It was also because of this incident that Congress came to an end, and no one wanted to go against Henry anymore.

Although the Eight Qis Tribe and the Bryce Family were strong, they did not dare to go against the disciple of Immortal Lu.

As for the Xue family, they were in a very embarrassing situation. They had been hostile to Henry before, but in the end, their ancestor was on Henry's side. The Xue family no longer had any opposition, and they also took the initiative to make peace with the Qin Family and the Colver Family.

Henry, a Future bishop of the Eastern Continent, could be regarded as the only candidate. When Sanford announced abdication, Henry could officially take over as a bishop.

However, although Henry was just a bishop candidate, in other people's eyes, Henry was no different from a bishop. Moreover, he was the strongest bishop among the seven continents of the Recluse Association.

Rumours had already spread that Henry had already stepped foot into the Divine Realm!

After the election, the meeting of the Recluse Association of the East was also over. There were some other procedures, such as voting, but they were ignored now. All the major forces left one after another.

Henry had been staying on Penglai Island until everyone had left, including Sackcloth Visitor.

Henry did not leave. He sat cross-legged on the highest cliff of Penglai Island alone and closed his eyes, like an old monk in meditation, motionless.

When the sun fell on the horizon, the light in the sky disappeared.

Henry's closed eyes suddenly opened at this moment, and he said, "Everyone, after waiting for so long, it's time to show up. There is no one else on the island."

"Ah, Henry!" A cold voice came from behind Henry. "I really don't know whether I should praise you for your courage or for your stupidity. Should you stay here alone?" "I think that this person is confident in himself. After all, there are already rumours saying that he has stepped into the Divine Realm." A figure appeared at the bottom of the cliff in front of Henry.

"The Divine Realm? I don't believe it." Another figure walked out from the darkness. "If it's so easy to enter the Divine Realm, then there wouldn't be so many people dying in the Qi-concentrating realm."

"Test him and you'll find out!"
