From Outcast to Overlord: The Unyielding Heir Novel

hapter 311 Could That Guy Be Leander ? " Excuse me ... wait a minute ! " Finished Ethan's voice came from behind , and before Leander could react , he had already arrived at his side . " Is there something you need ? " Leander paused and turned slightly . Even seeing his long - lost younger brother , his face remained calm , unreadable . Ethan's eyes narrowed as he studied Leander . The closer he got to Leander , the stronger the feeling of familiarity grew . " Have we ... met somewhere before ? " he asked after a moment , trying to place him , but failing to recall any clear memory .

" I think you're mistaken , " Leander said lightly , shaking his head with a faint smile . " I don't think we've met before . " " Really ? " Ethan frowned . He trusted his instincts , yet Leander's casual demeanor confused him . " Could it be ... I'm imagining things ? " he murmured to himself . Lost in thought for a moment , he snapped back to reality only to see Leander already climbing the dorm stairs , paying him no mind . Ethan's gaze lingered on Leander's retreating figure . Even if they had met before , why should he care about some ordinary guy without martial prowess ?

He finally shook his head and turned away . On the sixth floor , Leander's eyes flickered as he instinctively touched his chest . That spot- once where Gareth had stripped him of his martial power - now sent a memory spike through him . Earlier , from observing Ethan , he had sensed something unusual : two martial powers running through his younger brother , unlike ordinary men . " So that's it ... Gareth removed my martial power and grafted it onto Ethan . " Leander's fists clenched slowly . He couldn't understand why the Ashcrofts treated him and Ethan so differently .

They were both legitimate heirs of the Ashcroft family . His own talent had surpassed Ethan's ; his cultivation had always been stronger . Yet he had been cast aside , stripped of his martial power , and thrown out of the family . Ethan , who was weaker , had been granted the martial power , rising to become the family's one true prodigy . 1/4 16:08 Thu , Oct 16 Chapter 311 Could That Guy Be Leander ? #Finished He stood in silence for a long while , then withdrew his gaze . His emotions calmed down . Even without his martial power , he had forged his own path with sheer will and talent .

A couple of martial powers were nothing to brag about . Give Ethan three or five more , and the strongest of the young generation would still be him - Jeff Ashcroft . At Room 606 , Leander knocked on the door . " Yes ? " a voice called from inside . A tall , thin , bookish - looking young man with thick black glasses turned to look at him . " Looking for someone ? " " No , I stay here , " Leander said with a smile . It seemed that this young man would be one of his future roommates . Two figures immediately jumped from their beds , clad only in boxers .

One was broad- shouldered with eight - pack abs , standing nearly six foot three , his honest - looking face giving off a friendly vibe . The other , flashy and stylish with bright blond hair , wore a Rolex and designer underwear from Enatria . It was obvious he came from a wealthy family . " Whoa ! The last legend of our dorm has arrived ! " the three exclaimed in unison , their curiosity piqued . " Nice to meet you guys , " Leander greeted , moving to claim his bed . " Come on , buddy , we'll help you settle in !

" The three young men busied themselves making his bed , wiping his desk , and cleaning his chair . Small talk flowed easily , and camaraderie grew naturally . The bespectacled gentleman was Evander Dawson , from Ascendia in Mornwick . The tall , muscular man was Luke Hunter , a true Northeasterner . The stylish blond was Nathan Bennett , a Seagate native whose family owned several clothing factories and ranked among the city's wealthiest . After brief introductions , Leander offered his name and mentioned he was from Ravenridge , Mornwick . " Mornwick ?

Then we're practically from the same hometown ! " Evander adjusted his glasses and smiled . " It doesn't matter whether we're from the same hometown , " Nathan laughed , slinging an arm around Leander's shoulder . " Dorm mates first . Let's clean up , then hit Saffron House tonight for a feast , and later the club - I'm picking up the tab ! " Leander saw their excitement and didn't want to dampen it . He nodded in agreement . 2/4 16:08 Thu , Oct 16 Chapter 311 Could That Guy Be Leander ? 44 Finished Meanwhile , Ethan walked along the campus path .

Young girls glanced at him , some shy , some bold enough to ask for his number - but he refused every advance . His heart belonged to one person only : Daphne . " Daphne ! " he called , dialing her number . " I'm going to visit Durham Abbey to see my mom after dinner . She misses you . Can you come with me ? " His voice carried a gentle , inquiring tone . There was a long silence before she finally answered , " Okay . " Ethan's face lit up . After chatting briefly , he hung up . He thought of his mother at Durham Abbey , a trace of sorrow crossing his eyes .

Ever since Gareth stripped Leander's martial power and threw him into the mountains , she had never returned to the Ashcroft Residence . She had spent nine years at Durham Abbey , praying and meditating without ever leaving . There was a family dinner today , and he wanted to bring her home . But knowing how stubborn she was , he sighed . As he moved forward , his steps suddenly froze . " Huh ? " His pupils contracted sharply , his hand clutching his chest . A searing pain shot through him , twisting his expression .

He collapsed onto the grass , the pain unrelenting , like something inside him was being ripped away . " What's happening? " He focused inward , trying to steady his inner energy . His eyes widened in shock . " Is that ... Leander's martial power ? " Though young at the time , he remembered clearly where his father Gareth had implanted the martial power in him . Only later had he realized that the extra martial power belonged to his elder brother , Leander .

The dual martial powers had once more than doubled his cultivation speed , allowing him to rise as the hottest young prodigy in the martial world . He had wielded them freely , without a hint of anomaly - until now . Now , the martial power boiled within him , disrupting his inner energy , threatening to sever itself from his body entirely . 3/4 16:09 Thu , Oct 16 Chapter 311 Could That Guy fle Leander ? " What ... what's going on ? " 44 Finished He forced his inner strength to suppress the pain . Slowly , the torment eased .

He frowned in thought ; then , realization struck him like lightning . His eyes went wide as he recalled the young man he had just met in the dorm . His face drained of color . " Could that guy be Leander ? " Send Gifts 匪
