Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain Novel - Chapter 152

Chapter 152 Marshal’s Past

As the night deepened, the noise in the banquet hall of the Dunkirk Hotel gradually faded.

After sending off the last guest, Macville returned to the small hall beside the banquet hall and saw Xio, who had just sent away a few old friends.

“Dad, are you tired?” Macville asked with a smile as he sat down beside Hugh.

In front of others, Macville was the famous CEO of the McDao Group and one of the few important figures on the Purple Cloud Planet. However, in front of Xio, he would always be his filial son.

“Tired my ass.” Hearing Macville’s question, Xio glared at him, “I just chatted with my old friends and drank a little. What’s there to be tired about?”

“Drank a little?” Macville immediately became nervous, “Dad, didn’t the doctor warn you to drink as little as possible? Your body…”

“Cut the crap.” Xio waved his hand and interrupted Macville bluntly, “It’s not like I can’t drink less. I met my old friends today, so what if I’m happy to drink a little? Back in the military camp, when didn’t I drink a kilogram or two? Even Chemekov can’t drink more than me…”

Macville felt helpless.

Every time he persuaded Xio to drink a little, he would say this.

“Dad, that was in the past after all. Your body is no longer like before. No matter how advanced modern medicine is, you have to take care of yourself, right?”

Xio glared at Macville and suddenly sighed.

“Sigh, I’m a little regretful now. If I could have listened to Chemekov’s advice and practiced martial arts diligently, even if I can’t become a Star-Grade Martial Artist like him now, what Heaven Control Realm or whatever is weaker… Even if I’m at the Void Break Realm, my body wouldn’t be so bad. Why would I need to worry about drinking?”

Macville was amused.

He had previously advised his father to pay attention to his body countless times. He had always been stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat. Why did he suddenly sigh about the problem of not practicing martial arts well today?

Then, he was a little worried.

Generally speaking, people would only sigh too much in their life when they felt that their bodies were not suitable. Could it be that after drinking, their father felt that something was wrong?

He had to let the private doctor examine him properly later.

After feeling worried, he was a little curious.

“Dad, you mentioned Marshal Chemekov a few times today. Did you think of something?”

Although Xio and Marshal Chemekov were old comrades and friends, under normal circumstances, Xio would not mention him.

After all, Marshal Chemekov was now the commander-in-chief of the Federation Army and one of the top Star-Grade Martial Artists. Even if Xio had a son who was the president of the McDao Group, the difference in status between the two sides was still huge.

Under normal circumstances, the extremely competitive Xio would not mention Marshal Chemekov for no reason. However, in just a few short sentences, he had mentioned him many times, causing him to be suspicious.

“It’s nothing. It’s just that I saw a little guy earlier and planned to recommend him to Chemekov to let him take a look. When I saw my old friend again, I could not help but chat about him with a few old fellows. Speaking of which, it’s indeed reasonable for Chemekov to have his current achievements. At that time, in the military camp, he was the one who trained himself the most. Especially during the time he broke through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate, it was simply…”

Xio clicked his tongue and shook his head, his face filled with an unbearable expression.

Macville had heard this from Xio many times and did not mind. What he noticed was something else.

“You recommended Chu Nan to Marshal Chemekov? Will the Marshal agree to see him?”

Xio glared at him. “I recommended him. Why wouldn’t he accept it? Could it be that he doesn’t give me any face after being an old comrade for so many years?”

Macville did not know whether to laugh or cry.

“Dad, it’s not that I suspect that the Marshal won’t give you face, but… isn’t it a little wasteful for you to place such a precious opportunity on Chu Nan? He won’t even be able to become a Void Break Martial Artist in the future…”

Xio widened his eyes again and raised his voice.

“What do you mean waste? I think that kid is pleasing to the eye and am willing to give him this chance. No? Who told you that kid will definitely not become a Void Break Martial Artist in the future? I think he might even be a Star-Grade Martial Artist in the future!”

Macville could only smile helplessly.

“But the two Star-Grade Martial Artists said that he won’t be able to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future…”

“That’s why I threw him to Chemekov. Although that fellow suffered a lot when he broke through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate back then, he still broke through. If this kid can endure this pain and can break through, what’s so strange about him becoming a Star-Grade Martial Artist in the future?”

Macville was puzzled.

“Dad, why do you think so highly of Chu Nan?”

“I told you, I like that kid.”

Macville shook his head. What kind of reason was that?

However, Xio clearly did not want to say it. He could not do anything about his stubborn father. He could only sigh helplessly and say, “It’s fine that you like him, but many people don’t.”

Nas

He described the small conflict that had happened at the banquet. Xio was not surprised after hearing it, but he snorted softly.

“The Xue family actually handed over their family’s martial arts technique. That’s because they’re stupid. There are so many martial arts families in the federation, so how many are as stupid as them? They actually have the nerve to vent their anger on Chu Nan. This Xue Changhao is really getting worse.”

Macville hesitated for a moment and asked, “Should I remind Xue Changhao to not have any ideas about Chu Nan?”

“What are you doing? You want to curry favor with me?” Xio glanced at Macville and waved his hand, “There’s no need. If this kid can’t even deal with such a small problem, it’s useless even if I push him to Chemekov. I believe in my judgment. He can deal with it.”

Macville frowned slightly and thought to himself that it would be fine if it was only the Luo family who disliked Chu Nan, but recently, there was news that because Supremacy Mu Yutong had given Chu Nan a B-rank martial technique, many people had secretly targeted him. This kid was actually in a rather dangerous situation.

However, on second thought, the expressionless middle-aged man who had been following Chu Nan and his sister at the banquet appeared in his mind.

Chu Nan was clearly only an ordinary farmer from the Purple Cloud Planet, but he was able to make the Seres Security Company send out a three-star bodyguard to provide personal protection. He probably still had many trump cards that he had not discovered, so there was no need to worry too much about him.

With the help of the Seres Security Company, ordinary thieves could not pose a threat to him.

How could an enemy, who could make the three-star bodyguard of the Seres Security Company helpless, fancy a mere B-rank martial technique that Mu Yutong casually threw to Chu Nan?

After chatting with Xio for a while, Macville stood up.

“Father, it’s getting late. I still have some things to deal with. Let’s get someone to send you back to rest first?”

Xio waved at him, “Go do your thing. I’ll get Ake to pick me up later.”

“Yes.”

Macville did not waste any time and immediately turned to leave.

As soon as he walked out the door, the personal terminal in Xio’s hand suddenly sounded.

Xio looked down and his serious and dignified face immediately lit up. He immediately picked up the call.

A sweet-looking little girl who looked to be only 11 or 12 years old appeared on the virtual screen.

When she saw Xio, she immediately waved her hands.

“Grandpa! Grandpa! Did you see me?” “Yes, yes, I see it. My darling Trina, it’s so late. Aren’t you asleep? Where’s your mother?”

“I’ve been waiting for your news, Grandpa. Have you seen Chu Nan?” Trina’s small face was filled with anticipation, “Is he tall in person? Is he handsome? Is he as domineering as he was in the competition?”

Xio laughed and shook his head.

“No, he’s not that domineering in real life. Instead, he’s a very gentle kid. As for whether he’s tall… he seems to be slightly taller than me. Handsome… I can’t tell. In any case, it’s similar to what I saw on the recording.”

“Then he’s very handsome.” Trina immediately smiled happily. “Grandpa, can you still see him in the future? Will I have a chance to see him?”

“Of course there’s a chance. Let me tell you…”
