Chapter 949: Chapter 948: Bryson Campbell is My Brother

"Yusuf Zuck, I’m sorry, but my master’s notes don’t record how to enter." An hour later, Faye Webb said with a pained expression, "My teacher only mentioned that Immortal Island is a place of secrets, not to be entered by ordinary people at will, and even those who have been inside must never divulge any information about the island. So although he knows how to get in, he didn’t write it down."

"Don’t worry, I can wait. They should also be coming out soon." Yusuf Zuck smiled and since he had confirmed the presence of Immortal Island here, waiting would be fine. It wouldn’t take two days; these people would definitely come out.

Just as Yusuf Zuck was waiting patiently for the sea level, Isaac Quintana’s complexion on the island was also somewhat unsightly because he had learned from the Golden Eagle that Yusuf Zuck might have followed them here.

This was not what he wanted to see. He just wanted to inform Yusuf Zuck to leave quickly and not to show up after three days, or else there would be danger. But why didn’t Yusuf Zuck heed the warning? Why did he still come?

"Isaac Quintana, what’s wrong? You don’t look well." The plotting among the high-level members had just concluded and, after dining, many people were wandering around the island. The weather was mild and sunny, the island was as beautiful and pleasant as a fairyland, truly a prime place for leisure and healing.

Tianji Child had drunk a few glasses of wine, then got up and approached Isaac Quintana, asking about his troubled appearance.

"It’s nothing major, but I have some questions to ask my foster father!" Isaac Quintana bowed respectfully to Tianji Child.

"Let’s go, father and son will talk while we walk. Walls have ears here." The bond between Tianji Child and Isaac Quintana originated from a chance encounter more than three thousand years ago.

Back then, Tianji Child went to the northwestern grasslands in search of a particular herb. There, on the vast prairies, he saw this young man. Isaac Quintana was not an Earth Immortal at the time, merely an ordinary cultivator.

Tianji Child did not find the herb he was looking for on the prairie. Just when he was about to leave, he saw Isaac Quintana, crouched in the grasslands.

At that time, Isaac Quintana was kneeling in front of two eagles. One of the eagles had an arrow piercing its abdomen, while the other continually nudged the injured bird with its head.

Isaac Quintana knelt in front of them, shedding tears.

Out of curiosity, Tianji Child landed opposite Isaac Quintana and took an interested look at the two eagles.

They were just ordinary eagles, not beasts or demons, and the arrow was shot by a regular Hunter.

Isaac Quintana ignored his arrival, focused only on wanting to save the eagle, but was helpless to do so.

Initially, Tianji Child was just watching for amusement, but as he observed Isaac Quintana’s disregard and sorrowful crying, he gradually became serious.

The reason was that the two eagles shared a bond of loyalty and gratitude that is rare in the world of humans.

Even as the injured eagle was near death, the other did not stop nudging it and intermittently let out mournful cries. Tianji Child even observed the uninjured eagle shed tears.

He too was moved by the two eagles, and then he stepped forward to save the injured female eagle.

In return, Isaac Quintana, to express gratitude on behalf of the two eagles, performed a grand gesture of thanks for Tianji Child.

This way, the two became acquainted. Isaac Quintana learned from Tianji Child that he needed a particular herb.

What astonished Tianji Child the most was that after asking him to draw a picture of the herb, Isaac Quintana placed the drawing in front of the two eagles.

An hour later, each eagle returned, clutching the herb Tianji Child needed in their beaks.

Tianji Child felt at the time that good deeds reap good rewards, he saved an eagle, and in turn, the eagles helped him find the herb.

This kind of thing, I had only read about in some mystical novels, so after experiencing it firsthand, I felt that everything in this world had its preordained destiny, hidden in the darkness.

Yusuf Zuck became friends with Isaac Quintana, knowing that Isaac lived right on this vast steppe, with the sky as his blanket and the earth as his mat, with eagles for companions!

At that time, they spent three days together, and three days later, Yusuf Zuck returned to the Spirit City, yet he always remembered the two eagles and Isaac Quintana afterward.

A month passed like this, and he went back to the steppe to find Isaac Quintana and the two eagles, and then he and Isaac played crazily on the grassland for a month.

Latter on, seeing Isaac Quintana’s simplicity and kindness, though he lacked any talent for cultivation, he still wanted to adopt Isaac as his foster son, just because there were still such good, such kind children in the world.

And Isaac Quintana agreed.

After that, Isaac Quintana stayed on the great steppe, and Yusuf Zuck would occasionally visit him, but their relationship was never made public, Isaac Quintana didn’t even inquire about his identity.

It wasn’t until the last few years that he brought Isaac back to the Lingtong Pavilion. Although he had announced his foster son to the upper echelons of Lingtong Pavilion, his foster son acted low-key, never flaunting his status, and even avoided using it when doing anything.

Overall, he was one hundred percent satisfied with Isaac Quintana, treating him no differently than his own son, and he had already decided that, after the end of the Heroic Assembly, he would transfer the power of Lingtong Pavilion to Isaac Quintana.

Moreover, Isaac Quintana was fortunate; although the two eagles had long since died, before they did, they pecked him a golden egg, and Isaac Quintana somehow hatched it into a little golden eagle with golden feathers.

The little golden eagle had lived for nearly three thousand years, but it remained unchanged, not listening to anyone other than Isaac Quintana, with nobody able to communicate with it.

"Isaac, you’re good in every way, it’s just that your personality still has some flaws," they walked and talked, with Yusuf Zuck sharing his thoughts first.

"What do you mean by that, foster father?" Isaac Quintana asked, puzzled.

"You’re kind-hearted, magnanimous, meticulous, and you’ve long since become a Second Level Earth Immortal, but do you know what your character is missing?" Yusuf Zuck asked.

"Missing what?" Isaac Quintana was utterly baffled.

"Ruthlessness and bloodthirstiness!" Yusuf Zuck said, "After the Heroic Assembly ends, I will transfer everything from Lingtong Pavilion to you, including the rights to the people, finances, and properties. But before I hand these things over to you, you’ll need to do one thing!"

"I don’t want it, I don’t like dealing with so many things!" Isaac Quintana immediately shook his head.

"Listen to me until I’m finished," Yusuf Zuck said, shaking his head. "You need to go kill someone. In all these years, I’ve never seen you kill anyone, yet those who accomplish great things are ones who emerge from a sea of corpses and blood. Only the heartless can achieve greatness, so I’ll give you a task later, and you must kill everyone involved in the mission."

"Let’s not talk about this. I want to speak my mind," Isaac Quintana said, shaking his head.

"Mm, go ahead. You were about to say something, weren’t you? Whatever is on your mind, just say it. Although we share no blood ties, there’s no distinction between you and me!" Yusuf Zuck said.

"Our Lingtong Pavilion has no grievance or dispute with Bryson Campbell, so why involve ourselves in scheming against him? Our involvement is not worthwhile."

"Hahaha." Hearing Isaac Quintana’s words, Yusuf Zuck laughed and said, "You should know my nickname is ’Destiny’s Child,’ right? When I calculated the heavenly secrets, I saw that our Lingtong Pavilion and you would encounter great fortune after the Heroic Assembly. Although the secrets revealed only a little, and I couldn’t figure out the underlying layer, if it’s beneficial for Lingtong Pavilion and for you, then naturally I will get involved and vigorously promote the Heroic Assembly. As for Bryson Campbell..." Yusuf Zuck pondered, "He is a madman, and of course, he might also possess great fortune, perhaps even representing some higher plane power. However, precisely because of his madness, he is doomed to destruction."

"In this world, one person cannot defeat the entire sky!"

"What would you do if I told you that Bryson Campbell is my brother?" Isaac Quintana finally revealed the greatest secret!
