Chapter 1040: Join Forces With Rong Huangde!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shaun now had the body of Rong Bailun, who was a Chinese man in his 40s.
There was no way Harvey could father a Chinese son. Moreover, this fellow looked even older than him.
Shaun hurriedly said, “Dad, you’re really my father. I’m Shaun! I’m not lying to you! I traveled back in time 40 years from the future!”
“40 years from the future? Time travel?”
Harvey was dumbfounded. He was from 1978 and had never seen a time-travel show nor even read a time-travel novel. He was very unfamiliar with the concept.
But it was a good thing that Harvey had experienced some magical things in his life. He didn’t think it was too far-fetched, unlike if he was an ordinary middle-aged man from a rural town.
He knew that there were many magical things in this world.
Harvey said, “You’re too good at bullsh*tting. Even if you really came from 40 years later, my son is Caucasian. It’s impossible for him to turn into a Chinese, right?”
Shaun said, “Dad, give me some time. I’ll explain it to you. It’s like this…”
With that, Shaun told his father everything that had happened over the years. Including how he had switched minds with Rong Bailun and how he had come to this era through a time machine.
He told Harvey about Jordan being a Deity.
For an entire hour, Harvey listened until his head hurt. The shock in his heart was incomparable.
“This body belongs to Rong Bailun? You switched minds with him? Jordan and Rong Huangde traveled back in time with you just to uncover the secrets of our Handley family? Oh my god, is this world that crazy? How can so many magical things happen?” Harvey said in disbelief.
Shaun said, “Dad, I know it’s very difficult for you to believe all of this, but I’m really not lying to you. I have photos of me living with Mom in Switzerland. Look.”
He took out some photos from his pocket. They were photos of him and his mother when they were alive.
Shaun turned on the flashlight, allowing Harvey to see clearly. When Harvey looked at the photos, he was surprised to see Shaun and his mother in them.
“This man looks like me when I was young! Also, is this woman really my wife after she grows old? She looks so similar!”
Shaun was still a baby in 1978. It was difficult to imagine what he would look like after he grew up.
On the other hand, Harvey’s wife was already an adult in 1978 and the foundation of her appearance was already set. Even after 40 years into the future, one would still be able to tell it was her under all those wrinkles.
Therefore, Harvey was certain that the old lady in the photo was his wife!
“Are you really Shaun?”
Finally, Harvey began to believe Shaun after seeing the photos.
Shaun nodded. “Dad, I’m really Shaun. Mom taught me the nursery rhyme and told me the story of you and Uncle. I remember everything! I came here to ask you to help me! As long as you and Uncle help me kill Jordan and Rong Huangde, I will become the master of the world when I return to the present!
“Don’t you want your son to rule the world in the future?”
Of course, Harvey hoped that his son would be so successful.
After chatting with Shaun for an hour, he gradually sensed that this guy really resembled his son.
Harvey was a spell cultivator whose mental strength far exceeded that of ordinary people. He was also more sensitive than others when it came to sensing people.
“Child, I believe you. I can feel the intimate connection between us. However, I still have to discuss this with your uncle. If your uncle believes you, we will help you kill Jordan and Rong Huangde!”
Shaun knelt down again. “Thank you, Dad! I’ll contact you through the note method then. I have to go back. I’m staying with Rong Huangde now, and I can’t let him find out that I came out to see you. Otherwise, it’ll be troublesome.”
“Okay.”
With that, Shaun and Harvey parted ways.
But what Shaun didn’t know was that after he left the place where he was currently staying with Rong Huangde, Jordan came to pay a visit.
“Jordan? It’s so late. Why are you here? Huh? Where’s Shaun? Has he gone out?”
Rong Huangde was woken up by Jordan. He was very surprised by his late-night visit.
Jordan looked different from usual. Ever since the Handleys suddenly changed their mind and stopped talking about the secret, Jordan sensed that something was wrong.
In his dream earlier, Jordan had dreamed of something bad.
Jordan sat on the chair and said, “If I’m not wrong, Shaun must have gone to see his father. Harvey suddenly stopped Terrence today and didn’t let him reveal the name of the place. I’m afraid it’s also because of Shaun.”
Rong Huangde was furious. “Damn Shaun. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have brought him here. What is this b*stard trying to do?! When he returns, I’ll kill him immediately!”
Jordan quickly objected. “No, we can’t kill Shaun. Harvey and Terrence probably already know my background. Even if we kill Shaun, they won’t tell me the Handley family’s secret.”
Rong Huangde was a little anxious. “Deity Jordan, since you came to find me so late at night, you must have thought of a solution. Please tell me.”
Jordan did have a solution. However, he would have to sacrifice a lot this time, and it would be very dangerous.
“Shaun has always wanted to kill us and rule the world himself. You should know this, right?”
Rong Huangde snorted. “Although I’m old, my mind is still very clear. Shaun is a b*stard with wild ambitions. He has always been hypocritical and hiding his ambitions. How can I be deceived by him? I already expected him to attack us during this time travel. Once we die here, he will return to 2022 and become the undisputed master of the world.
“No one would be his match anymore!”
Jordan nodded. It seemed like Rong Huangde was very clear on this. Similarly, Jordan already knew this too. Jordan, Rong Huangde and Shaun were no fools. They knew very well what the other party was thinking.
They only got along harmoniously on the surface, but in reality, they knew that the other party would kill them at any moment.
Jordan was also good at psychological warfare. If Shaun hadn’t already taken action, Jordan wouldn’t have taken the initiative to discuss countermeasures with Rong Huangde.
“I’ve predicted that with Shaun’s interference, it’s impossible for us to successfully obtain the location of the Handley family’s spells. Even if we do, it will be fake information. Shaun will instigate the Handley family to lie to us,” said Jordan.
Rong Huangde was dismayed. “Is our operation destined to fail?”
Jordan said slowly, “There’s only one way!”
