Chapter 421
Trevor slowly turned around.
Those present immediately gasped at the sight of him!
The reason was simple.
Trevor’s eyes were so swollen that they were now grotesquely bulging!
Although he still had his hands clasped behind his back, maintaining an air of immortal grace, his face was swollen to the point that it was nearly unrecognizable.
Keira was also stunned.
Even though this face was beyond recognition, why did it vaguely remind her of her master?
No, it couldn’t be…
Chris blurted out in shock.” Trevor? No, Sect Leader?”
Lady Gill was also taken aback, her tone unconsciously softer. “What happened to you…?”
Master Freeman touched his own face. novelbin

O
It wasn’t just his eyes that were swollen but even his cheeks. Due to the constant tears, he had developed a rash, making his face unbearable to look at.
Trevor coughed. “Lady Gill, I really am unwell, which is why I haven’t been a great host, please forgive me.”
Lady Gill choked, unable to argue about his attitude earlier, and simply asked, “What’s wrong with your
eyes?”
“Nothing serious, they’re just inflamed from an illness.”
Trevor sighed silently.
Chris immediately said, “Master, you need to take care of your health. How can you let it go this far without seeing a doctor? Let me take you to the hospital later!’
“That won’t be necessary.” Trevor knew all too well. His eyes were merely swollen from crying, and warm compresses should clear it up in a few days.
Of course, that presupposed… no more tears, but how could that possibly be?
For example, right now…
Chris frowned with concern. “How can you treat your health so carelessly? I vour second iunior can’t

control you, but surely our Freeman Sect’s eldest sister can, right? She’ll be back in a few days, and when she sees you like this, she’ll definitely be worried… Trevor, why are you crying?”
Trevor sobbed. “I’m okay… It’s just the wind making my eyes water… Now they’re so swollen, and I can hardly see people clearly… Lady Gill, please be patient with me, be patient…”
Lady Gill was speechless.
She suddenly felt as if she were the villain who bullied the old man. Trevor was already in such a condition;
how could she still hold him accountable?
She twitched the corners of her mouth, then turned to
Austin, speaking somewhat critically, “What do you
think?”
Austin pursed his lips. “Mom, even if we handle this matter low-key, Keera still owes me an apology, right? At least let me feel her genuine remorse!”
Lady Gill then looked at Trevor. “Master Freeman, that’s not too much to ask for, right?”
Master Freeman immediately said, “Not at all, not at all…”
..
O
Then he squinted at the people around him.
He could barely see anything clearly, just a blur with a few figures, one of which was Chris; he could
recognize his second junior by shape alone.
Another must be James; that left only…
Trevor turned to Kate. “It’s you, the Outer Sect Disciple, right? Come here, apologize to Lady Gill and Mr. Gill!”
The crowd was speechless.
Kate couldn’t help but laugh, “Uncle, I’m Kate!”
“Ah! Kate!” Master Freeman only then shifted his gaze to the figure next to Kate, pausing for a slight moment
That figure, why did it resemble his little disciple
much?
He wanted to cry again…
SO
It must be because he missed his disciple too much. Now everything reminded him of her!
Trevor’s tears fell uncontrollably again, and then he spoke in a tearful voice, “That Outer Sect Disciple,

O
come and apologize.”
Keira didn’t know what to say.
She stepped forward, approaching Lady Gill and Austin, and said indifferently, “I’m sorry.”
Austin scoffed. “What did you say? I can’t hear you!
Louder!”
Keira blinked. “Austin, are you going deaf at such a young age? That’s quite pitiful. Do you need me to recommend you a doctor?”
Austin was dumbfounded.
He flew into a rage, “Is that how you apologize?”
Keira’s eyes grew colder, about to retort, when Trevo spoke again. “Enough, that’s enough. Austin, as a nominal disciple, you can’t even defeat an Outer Sect Disciple, and that’s quite impressive indeed. As the Sect Leader, it’s my duty to educate you. After you go home, practice all the Freeman Sect martial arts every
day!”
Austin was dumbfounded. “Freeman Sect martial arts? Every day? All of them?”
The Freeman family had several sets of boxing
O
techniques alone, not to mention sword techniques and other martial arts moves. Practicing all of them in one day would leave no time for rest!
Trevor nodded. “That’s right, to prevent any talk that our Freeman Sect’s nominal disciple is a
good-for-nothing”
Austin didn’t know what to say.
Lady Gill scoffed coldly. “Master Freeman, today I have truly seen how the Freeman Sect administers fair justice. You really do know how to shelter your own!”
“No worries! Everything’s fine!” Trevor sighed. “Lady Gill, I can’t help it. You mentioned your son is a nominal disciple, but Keera is Uncle Olsen’s daughter. I trust Lady Gill doesn’t really want to escalate things, right?”
Lady Gill harrumphed and stood up abruptly, then glowered at Keira. “Don’t think this is over. You better watch out and not fall into my hands!”
With those words, she took Austin and headed straight
for the door!
Soon, they disappeared from the doorway.
O
Trevor breathed a sigh of relief and then looked in the direction where Chris stood, “Chris, my eyes really are uncomfortable today. Regarding taking on a disciple, shall we postpone until tomorrow? Let’s show Lady Gill some respect; it wouldn’t be right if she just left and we reward someone without any punishment by naming them a nominal disciple, right? Let’s wait a day.”
Chris nodded. “Okay, Trevor, you’ve been through a
lot.”
“It’s nothing.”
Trevor waved his hand and, with the support of others, slowly left the scene.
Keira watched him go, feeling increasingly familiar
with him… She suddenly turned to James. “Do you have a photo of the Sect Leader?”
“Yeah!”
“Let me see it.”
“Oh, sure.”
Chris took out his phone, opened a photo he took with the Sect Leader, and handed it to Keira.
