Chapter 4970 (Four Thousand Nine Hundred and Seventy)
“It’s very possible!” the man said, “Even…even…um…I feel that way. This is the feeling…He should…be during the time when he ‘nailed’ those words into my soul, he also…also saw what I really am like, and understood my…my actual situation. This…this is also…also consistent with some of the things he said before he cast the spell on me.”

Gray Hand said, “Does it match what he said to you?”

The man said, “Before he cast the spell on me, he said… in the process of casting the spell on me, he would definitely learn some unknown facts about me.”

The Gray Hand asked, “How did you feel when you heard what he said?”

“I’m…scared.” said the man.

“Do you think it’s a scary thing to be known clearly by the other party?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Mainly… after listening to him say that, I felt that the matter was not simple… after all… after all, it was a matter involving magic… at that time, I didn’t understand what it felt like to be cast a spell by someone… I was indeed scared.” said the man.

The Gray Hand Man said, “You are afraid, but you also agreed to let him cast a spell on you?”

“He explained some things to me clearly, and then I… wasn’t as scared as before,” said the man.

“What did he tell you?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“He said… the information he learned from casting a spell on me was only the basis for him to solve my problem… He must have this basis to be able to solve my problem. If he doesn’t understand, he… will definitely not be able to solve my problem for me. He told me that he would never… never… tell anyone else what he learned about me.” The man said. “Just because I gave you this promise, you feel relieved?” The Gray Hand Man asked.

“He also told me that he was an alchemist and that there were many things that he must not do carelessly. If… if he learned some of my… some information through magic, but… told that information to other people, he would definitely pay a huge price. He couldn’t afford that kind of ancient family. He didn’t just swear verbally, he… also performed a ritual at that time. It seemed that this was a necessary step for them alchemists to solve this kind of problem for me… When he was doing it, I understood that if he told others the information he learned through magic, he would… would pay a certain price. I saw… some scenes at that time.”

“Can we say that he swore an oath in front of you through a ritual?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Yes.” The man said, “But he couldn’t really be considered to be swearing purely to me… He… He was also swearing to heaven and earth. As an alchemist, he… had to do that.”

“Did you trust him very much at that time?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Yes, I asked him to solve the problem… He is a reliable person, I heard so from others.” The man said, “Besides, in my situation, only he can solve it… His ability… is not possessed by other sects.”

The Gray Hand Man asked, “What sect is he from?”

Hearing the Gray Hands’ question, the man became even more nervous and said to the Gray Hands, “You… don’t really have to know, do you?”
