The Legendary Man

The Legendary Man Chapter 788-“Let go of me! Only one of us can live. Let me kill her!”

Broderick kept struggling in an attempt to escape. He glared at Josephine with deep hatred as though she was a vicious person who had murdered and destroyed his family.

Baffled, Mason furrowed his brows.

Although he did not know each member of the Osborne family personally, he knew enough to know that there had never been any interaction between Broderick and Josephine.

If I had to make some connections between them, I could only think of one thing. Josephine’s husband, Jonathan, was the one who crippled Broderick’s arm. But then again, Broderick would never dare to attack Josephine at this juncture, no matter how much the former wanted revenge. After all, she’s the only pawn who could affect Jonathan’s actions. If anything untoward happens, the Osborne family will surely lose Asura’s Office as an ally. By then, it’s not hard to predict that Jonathan will definitely retaliate like crazy. The Salladays, along with the other six families, will also seize the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, resulting in a series of apparent knock-on effects. This is also why Josephine is completely unharmed even though she is currently being held captive—it’s to prevent all that. Broderick should understand the delicate balance at play here.

Mason approached them with an icy look on his face. He reached out and pinched Broderick’s neck. A stream of pure spiritual energy flowed through Broderick’s body.

In a flash, every inch of Broderick’s body appeared in Mason’s mind.

“There are no parasites or other strange matters. What exactly is going on?” Mason asked in a cold voice, looking directly at Broderick.

Looking at Broderick’s state earlier, he had thought that the Mallory family had poisoned Broderick. However, upon closer inspection, he became even more confused.

Broderick was usually very respectful and well-behaved and would salute Mason the moment he caught sight of him from afar.

Yet, at that moment, there was nothing else in Broderick’s mind save for Josephine.

“It seems that Broderick has gone insane!” Everett exclaimed with a frown. Then, he turned to Mason as he suddenly recalled something. “Mason, if it isn’t a parasite, could it be that Broderick has been hypnotized?”

Hypnosis?

Mason’s expression turned solemn upon hearing Everett’s suggestion.

Theoretically speaking, cultivators who had entered the Superior Realm have extremely strong mental energy. Even if their cultivation skills were terrible, such cultivators were still better than ordinary people.
