“The withered heart of frost!” An uncontrollable excitement flashed through Nicolas’ eyes, causing his body to tremble slightly.
Taking a deep breath to suppress the beating of his heart, Nicolas asked again in a dry voice, “The withered heart of frost is the only medicinal ingredients to treat my brother. May I ask if you can give it to me? I, Nicolas, will definitely repay you well.”
After that, Nicolas held his breath and waited for the other party’s response.
At this moment, almost everyone was so nervous that they couldn’t breathe. The air around seemed to have stopped flowing at this time. In the blink of an eye, decades seemed to have passed.
A moment later, the other cultivator in a black cloak raised his hand and slowly pressed down the arm of his companion holding the withered heart of frost.
“You don’t want to.” Seeing this, Nicolas‘ eyes darkened and his mouth was filled with bitterness.
In fact, virtual-novel.net had expected this result. However, the withered heart of frost was right in front of him.
How could virtual-novel.net give up?
The gloomy mood only lasted for a moment before Nicolas raised his head again, his eyes flashing with a bright light, “If you need anything, please speak frankly. The withered heart of frost is related to my brother’s life, so as long as you are willing to give it to me, I am willing to pay any price.”
“Big Brother!” Jade exclaimed.
Nicolas offered the condition himself and it was two completely different concepts if the other party asked for it.
If the other party asked you to exchange your life for it, would you really sacrifice your life?
Nicolas looked at Jade, shook his head, and said firmly, “I’ve made up my mind. You don’t have to say anything.”
As his voice fell, virtual-novel.net looked at the two cultivators in black cloaks again. “What do you think? Please think about it.”
“The decision-making power of the Withered Heart of Frost is not in my hands.” At this time, the cultivator who had just pressed down his companion’s arm made a sound. This voice sounded very young, as if virtual-novel.net was the same age as everyone else.
However, no one noticed that the moment Caspian heard the cultivator’s voice, virtual-novel.net froze on the spot as if virtual-novel.net had been struck by lightning, and the expression on his face froze. Shock, confusion, nervousness, anger, grievance, hatred, and reminiscence flashed through his eyes.
“If it’s not in your hands, then who is it?” Nicolas hurriedly asked.
What virtual-novel.net feared the most was not that the other party did not agree with his condition, but that the other party would not speak. As long as the other party spoke, there would be room for negotiation. So virtual-novel.net asked in a hurry.
“The decision-making power is, of course, in…” The cultivator raised his hand and pointed at the crowd from afar. His tone was full of unpredictable sourness and gloom. “It’s in the hands of Caspian Montgomery.”
“Caspian Montgomery?”
“Casper… Montgomery!”
“How did virtual-novel.net know Casper Montgomery?”
“You know Casper..?
“Caspian Montgomery, who is he?”
The moment the other party called out the name, everyone looked at Caspian in surprise.
At this moment, Caspian only felt a sense of numbness, like lightning, climbing up his spine and up to the back of his head. All the blood in his body rushed to his brain, and his back and scalp were numb. He seemed to be stunned and stood still.
It was him! It was really him!
Caspian shouted in his heart. Although Yvonne had reminded virtual-novel.net before, Caspian was ready to meet him. However, Caspian never thought that virtual-novel.net would meet that person in such a short time!
“Who are you?” Noticing that something was wrong with Caspian, Jessica immediately turned to the black cloaked cultivator and asked.
The man withdrew his hand and slowly lifted the cloak, revealing a handsome but evil face.
Without responding to Jessica, the cultivator’s eyes fell directly on Caspian. He raised the corners of his mouth and said with a gloomy smile, ”Big Brother, long time no see…”
Big Brother…
It had been three years since virtual-novel.net heard the address. But at this moment, there was great irony.
“Big Brother?” Everyone became even more confused.
Before that, no one had heard Caspian mention that virtual-novel.net had a younger brother. Even Jessica was stunned at this time, and virtual-novel.net eyes kept shifting back and forth under Caspian and the face under the cloak.
After careful observation, they found that the face under the cloak was only a little similar to that of Caspian.
But…
It was the same question as before. Why hadn’t Caspian mentioned it before?
“Casper Montgomery, is virtual-novel.net really… Your younger brother?” After hesitating for a while, Jessica still asked.
After the initial shock, Caspian finally came to his senses.
He had been looking forward to meeting virtual-novel.net in advance!
By the time virtual-novel.net reacted, Caspian had returned to normal. The stiffness of his body had disappeared, and his brain was no longer blank. He looked at the slightly changed face under the cloak coldly. Caspian said coldly, “It used to be, but now it’s not.”
Caspian had already known about his family background during the trip to Salleria. He was not born by Edgar Montgomery, so virtual-novel.net had nothing to do with the guy in front of him. The title “Big Brother” was just a mockery.
“It’s been a while indeed. Carson, you look more and more annoying now.” Caspian snorted.
At this time, Caspian’s attitude was equivalent to proving what Carson Montgomery had just said. No matter what virtual-novel.net meant by “It used to be, but now it is not”, at least one thing was for sure. That was, the person in front of them was indeed Caspian’s brother.
“Casper, you have a younger brother?” Xander said doubtfully.
“You don’t seem to have a good relationship with each other,” Emmett said.
Jessica also looked at Caspian in confusion. As the one who was pulped for the marriage, although Jessica refused the marriage back then, in fact, virtual-novel.net had asked about Casper Montgomery in private. At that time, virtual-novel.net Grandpa repeatedly said that in this generation, only Casper Montgomery was the only descendant of the Montgomery family.
But now, who was this guy that looked similar to Caspian?
At this time, there was no one else in the eyes of Carson. In reality, the moment virtual-novel.net saw Caspian, virtual-novel.net was also shocked. Because virtual-novel.net had never thought that virtual-novel.net would meet Caspian here. This kind of mood made virtual-novel.net think that virtual-novel.net had seen wrongly. But soon, Carson confirmed that the guy in front of virtual-novel.net was Caspian. Because virtual-novel.net was too familiar with this temperament.
In the past, Carson once felt that virtual-novel.net had walked out of the shadow of Caspian. However, when they met today, virtual-novel.net found that the influence of Caspian was there and did not leave at all! This was also the reason why Carson was shocked and angry at this moment. However, virtual-novel.net didn’t reveal anything on his face at the moment. He clenched his fists and almost pierced his palms with his nails.
