The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 396 The Key to Obtaining the Secret Treasure

Caspian was momentarily stunned after hearing what Xandros said.

He thought that Xandros was cracking a joke.

The Eldorian Scroll fragment was a highly–coveted item in the traditional martial arts sphere. Xandros was actually going to pass this treasure over to him?

He was not even close with Xandros. They had only met two or three times.

Caspian could not comprehend how Xandros could trust him so much that he would pass the Eldorian Scroll fragment to him.

“Stop playing with me, Mr. Stewart Senior. The Eldorian Scroll fragment is a treasure that’s coveted by everyone. Why don’t you just keep it for yourself?” Caspian asked, seemingly

confused.

He was doubtful about what Xandros had said. This old cunning man. He was already over a

hundred years old.

Who knew what he was scheming?

He could just be rambling away without meaning what he said.

Caspian was being precautious. If it were someone else, they would’ve been elated to be able to obtain the Eldorian Scroll fragment.

“Little rascal, do you think I’d harm you? I can’t use it for myself.

“Our ancestors have set rules for us. We aren’t allowed to use the Eldorian Scroll fragment; we can only protect it. Besides, the Eldorian Scroll fragment isn’t in my hands. It’s at the ancestral cemetery,” Xandros scorned.

He was perplexed as well. Why did his ancestors choose to do something like this?

If the Eldorian Scroll fragment could be retained for their family’s own use, they could improve their strength through some practice.

“You can just hand the Eldorian Scroll fragment over to the villagers. They’re all people of the Stewart family estate; they must be trustworthy.” Caspian remained adamant in not believing

Xandros.

Strictly speaking, Caspian was only an outsider. It was not fully appropriate for him to obtain the Eldorian Scroll fragment.

“I’ve thought of that before as well. But these villagers are just ordinary people. They can’t possibly practice using it,” Xandros said, feeling rather frustrated.

Xandros was extremely despondent. The Stewart family had been established for hundreds of years, but they were gradually dwindling.

These villagers had never even been exposed to the traditional martial arts sphere.

Caspian seemed unwilling to accept it. This made Xandros even more disheartened.
