Chapter 11

William Reynolds had already prepared his emotions, opened up, and continued, “The Moonlight Medal is indeed rare. However, with your daughter’s talent, if she can awaken her Dao Seed, when the grand event of sixteen years arrives, there will be as many Moonlight Medals as she wants.”

  Samuel Bennett responded with displeasure, “You make it sound so easy. The grand event only lasts half a year. Yao’er still hasn’t awakened her Dao Seed, so I’m afraid there’s little hope left. If Yao’er could awaken her Dao Seed, I wouldn’t even care to covet your Moonlight Medal.”

  This was the truth. Compared to many other clan leaders among the ten great families of Yunluo City, Samuel Bennett actually had a relatively good reputation.

  William Reynolds smiled inwardly, knowing he had finally steered the conversation to the main point. He then asked calmly, “Clan Leader Beigong, what if I have a way to awaken your daughter’s Dao Seed?”

  As soon as he said this, Samuel Bennett’s previously calm gaze suddenly flashed with a sharp light, staring intently at William Reynolds, as if trying to pierce through the soul of the young man before him.

  William Reynolds knew that whether he could resolve his brother’s predicament depended on this very moment!

  Awakening his daughter’s Dao Seed was indeed Samuel Bennett’s greatest wish.

  In fact, this wish was even more urgent than obtaining William Reynolds’s Moonlight Medal.

  If he could truly rely on his daughter’s talent to win a Moonlight Medal, that would be an open and honorable glory, a true achievement to bring honor to his ancestors.

  It would be far more satisfying than seizing it by force.

  In fact, his attempt to seize the Moonlight Medal was only to gain a chance to go to the Heavenly Pavilion for testing, to find out the real reason why his daughter’s Dao Seed could not awaken.

  Samuel Bennett had even considered that if his daughter could eventually awaken, he wouldn’t mind returning the Moonlight Medal to William Reynolds.

  After all, back in the day, he and James Reynolds weren’t sworn brothers, but they did call each other brothers in public. Now, taking advantage of someone’s misfortune to covet their son’s belongings, even if there was a reason, it was hard to justify emotionally.

  Besides, a medal earned through one’s own strength and talent is always the most dazzling!

  So, when William Reynolds said those words, Samuel Bennett was truly shaken. He scrutinized William Reynolds for a long while before withdrawing his gaze, giving a light snort, but for the moment, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

  If William Reynolds had claimed he could awaken his daughter’s Dao Seed as soon as he entered, Samuel Bennett would have scoffed.

  But just now, William Reynolds’s clear logic and sharp words had completely changed his view of this young man.

  For a moment, he fell into deep thought.

  From his observation, William Reynolds didn’t seem to be boasting.

  However, according to the information, William Reynolds himself hadn’t even awakened his own Dao Seed, so for him to claim he had a way, Samuel Bennett naturally couldn’t just believe it.

  But awakening his daughter’s Dao Seed was Samuel Bennett’s top wish. He thought about it while eating, dreamed about it at night, unable to eat by day or sleep by night.

  So, even the slightest hope was enough to move him.

Chapter 0006: The Advantage of the Reincarnator

  In his previous life, William Reynolds would never have dared to make such a bold promise.

  However, with five years of memories, many problems that once seemed unsolvable were no longer issues for him.

  In his past life’s memories, half a year later, at the grand event of sixteen years, a powerful figure from the Heavenly Pavilion would conduct an extra test for Grace Bennett and discover the root cause of her inability to awaken her Dao Seed.

  As it turned out, it was all related to a single spiritual medicine. The real reason was actually a huge misunderstanding, a complete joke.

  After Grace Bennett’s Dao Seed awakened, she soared like a golden carp transforming into a dragon, and without suspense, claimed the title of the strongest of the younger generation in Yunluo City, winning the Moonlight Medal with ease.

  Although William Reynolds had already been marginalized by then, he had still heard about such big news that everyone in Yunluo City knew.

  Seeing Samuel Bennett still hesitating, William Reynolds knew it was time to press the advantage. Samuel Bennett was an old fox—if you didn’t provoke him, he wouldn’t take the bait.

  “Clan Leader Beigong, you are a hero of Yunluo City. If you have the courage, let’s make a bet. Within three days, I guarantee I can awaken Miss Beigong’s Dao Seed.”

  This time, Samuel Bennett couldn’t help but be moved.

  Within three days, guaranteed results.

  This was no ordinary boast. Without confidence, who would dare make such a claim? Unless William Reynolds was crazy, or treating his own brother’s life as a joke.

  “Are you serious?” Samuel Bennett didn’t hesitate, “How do we bet?”

  “Hmph, isn’t it just that Clan Leader Beigong has his eyes on the Moonlight Medal? Let’s use the Moonlight Medal as the wager. I’ll leave the Moonlight Medal in your residence as collateral, in exchange for my brother’s return. If, after three days, Miss Beigong’s Dao Seed awakens, you will personally return the Moonlight Medal to my family. Everything that happens in your residence must be kept secret, not a word leaked. How about it?”

  “And if it can’t be awakened in three days?”

  “If it can’t be awakened, then the Moonlight Medal will rightfully belong to the Beigong family, won’t it?” William Reynolds said solemnly, though he felt completely at ease inside.

  This is the advantage of reincarnation. With absolute confidence in victory, why not take such a risk-free deal?
