Chapter 332 Jesse's Reminder
"So, do you agree with what I just said?" Ethan was surprised and asked with a smile.
"You should be thinking about how to deal with Asura Bloodhand's revenge. That's the real issue!" Jesse's mouth twitched, completely ignoring Ethan's question, and reminded him with a change of tone.
"Revenge? Even if he knows his disciple is in my hands, he might not dare to come. Don't forget I can suppress their demonic energy!" Ethan dismissed it with a smirk.
"You can't be careless. Asura Bloodhand is different from Andrew. He is a renowned master, said to have reached the grandmaster level over a decade ago. Even though the elders of Celestia Vale injured him, his current strength is unknown, but he should not be underestimated!" Jesse reminded him seriously once again.
"Grandmaster level? There's a distinction between master and grandmaster levels?" It was the first time Ethan had heard such a term, and he asked in surprise.
"Of course, there are differences in strength above the master level. Ordinary masters and grandmasters are not the same. For example, the elders of Celestia Vale are all at the peak of the grandmaster level, far beyond ordinary masters!" Jesse generously explained the concept of martial artist levels to Ethan.
"So, Phoenix's grandmaster-level strength is far above Dorian's?" Ethan nodded in sudden realization.
Dorian was probably wary of Phoenix not just because of Phoenix's identity but also because of his grandmaster-level strength.
"Naturally. With your current strength, you are not strong enough to deal with Asura Bloodhand. If his strength hasn't recovered, that's one thing. But if he still has grandmaster-level strength, you definitely won't be his match!" Jesse warned him seriously again.
"You're being too absolute. No matter how strong he is, as long as I absorb his demonic energy, what can he do to me?" Ethan snorted dismissively.
"Even if you could absorb all his demonic energy with your current strength, Asura Bloodhand won't just stand there and let you. You'd probably be captured by him the moment you face him!" Jesse shook his head slowly in warning.
"Is that so?" Although Ethan didn't admit defeat, seeing Jesse's serious expression made him uneasy.
"You actually have another helper to deal with Asura Bloodhand!" Jesse changed the topic to remind him.
"Are you talking about Francis?" Ethan's heart skipped a beat.
According to Jesse's previous statements, Francis was definitely a grandmaster-level expert. Besides him, Ethan couldn't think of anyone else who could help. Even if Phoenix were willing to help, it would be too late!
"Perhaps that's why Asura Bloodhand hasn't stayed long in Novaria. Andrew can't cause much trouble here, but if Asura Bloodhand appears, Francis will definitely sense it and won't sit idly by." Jesse nodded slowly.
"Forget it. Francis hasn't left Emerald Valley in twenty years. How could he come here to help me?" Ethan sighed.
Even when he encountered Elmer at the foot of Emerald Valley last time, Francis didn't plan to intervene. Given his character, he wouldn't care about Asura Bloodhand.
"Under normal circumstances, Francis wouldn't meddle, but if something happens to you, I believe he will." Jesse smiled confidently.
"Relying on others for survival is not my style. I'm used to relying on myself! Do you have any other ideas? Let's hear them," Ethan asked.
He didn't comment on Jesse's words because he couldn't guess Francis's thoughts.
Francis liked to be mysterious. By the time he came to save Ethan, Ethan might have already kicked the bucket!
"If I had a way to deal with that demon, why would the elders of Celestia Vale have needed to join forces a decade ago?" Jesse straightforwardly shook his head.
"All that talk for nothing. I'll figure it out myself!" Ethan rolled his eyes and walked into the villa.
Watching Ethan's departing figure, Jesse stood stunned for a couple of seconds before heading back to the neighboring villa.
'Asura Bloodhand, I don't believe there's no way to deal with you. The Sun and Moon Beads can suppress demonic energy, so at least I'm not completely powerless!' Ethan thought to himself.
Back in his room, Ethan was still thinking about Jesse's earlier warning.
Despite his words, Ethan was eager to improve his strength.
But with his body not fully recovered, he wasn't sure if he could become a Half-Step Grandmaster.
Ethan cursed in his heart, 'This was all Ronald and Larry's fault!'
Calming himself, Ethan resumed his training. Whether he could reach the Half-Step Grandmaster level or not, the demonic energy absorbed by the Sun and Moon Beads was beneficial and shouldn't be wasted!
After half a day, Ethan could feel a significant improvement in his strength, and his previous injuries had fully healed, reaching his peak state.
Fortunately, the physical damage didn't affect his ability to improve within a small range. The fully absorbed demonic energy had a clear effect on him.
"With enough energy, this powerful force should be comparable to facing someone like Ignatius or Gino, a Half-Step Grandmaster. Unfortunately, once it circulates in my body, it's like a leaking balloon, losing at least a third of the energy, so I can only exert about seventy percent of my strength!" Ethan felt his current state, and after the initial joy, he was frustrated.
As Ethan had expected, even though he had the strength of a Half-Step Grandmaster, he couldn't fully utilize it, which meant he had reached his peak, with no further progress possible, let alone becoming a master level!
"What method can I use to deal with Asura Bloodhand now?" Ethan frowned. Improving his strength further was impossible for now, so he had to find alternative ways to enhance his abilities.
