Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 313

"He did that to obtain the blade core and the sword core from my master!" The older man gave Darren the reason with a horror-struck expression on his face.

"To obtain the blade core and the sword core? But why did he do that? He didn't seem to need those cores, did he? Plus, even if he needs the blade core and the sword core, he can obtain them from other blade and sword cultivators. Why did he kill his own brother?" Clouded by the turn of events, Darren still could not understand how Mathew afforded to kill Hanson.

"No, he can't! He can't just rob other cultivators of their blade core and sword core. As to what we have learned, that bad guy, Mathew, has acquired some evil methods to make puppets with the blade and the sword cores from the same body. That kind of puppet is lifeless at first. It is nothing more than just but a toy. Mathew was desperate to bring the vile creature to life, especially when he got to know that the puppet could inherit its master's cultivation base. In short, the cultivator's spirit and power will be caught inside the puppet. Moreover, the puppet will not get the punishment of nature because of the integrating of the blade intent and the sword intent.

If Mathew can make such a puppet successfully, he will own a powerful killing tool, and no one can defeat him," the older man explained to Darren, not missing a single point.

"That sounds kind of reasonable. Being bloodthirsty, he had the reason to kill Hanson if he had learned such an evil method," Grand Blood Refiner said calmly.

At that moment, Darren was almost convinced to believe the whole story. However, he always had such a feeling that Mathew was not that kind of man.

"Is there anything we did not know about what really happened?" Darren asked himself in a low voice.

"That is the sole reason why Mathew killed Hanson! I have seen the cruel expression on his face and sensed the killing desire from him!"

"If that is true, why didn't he kill you?" Darren asked, looking for some holes in the story. All this time, the older man could not convince him that Mathew was the bad guy in the story.

"I don't know. After Mathew killed my master, he merely imprisoned the three of us and let us suffer in here. At that time, we were only at the top level of the Mysterious Realm. He probably planned to torture us to death using the corrosive fog here." As the older man was relaying that to Darren and Grand Blood Refiner, he cast a forlorn look and said, "The two other slaves have been dead for thousands of years, and only I have survived because of the magic item my master gave to me. Plus, my cultivation base has improved continuously over the years. That's why I am alive now.

Young man, what I told you is the truth. Don't try to find the dead body of my master. Mathew, for sure, is just using you to fulfill his evil plans. You are also cultivating the blade skill and the sword skill at the same time. You should be cautious; otherwise, you will be killed by Mathew too." The older man gave Darren a piece of unsolicited advice with an excited expression.
