Jewel sighed when she heard that, and Darryl smiled bitterly.
“Master, it looks like there is no chance for you to learn from him. Well then, let’s enjoy our roast chicken. As for you, Mister Ford, you won’t be able to try this roast chicken.” Jewel’s face soured as she handed the chicken drumstick to Darryl.
“You—” Ford gulped; he could not stop licking his lips.
Jewel cooked the best roast chicken. No ordinary person would be able to stand such a delicious temptation, let alone a man who had been trapped for more than ten years.
Ford looked at Darryl who enjoyed the super delicious chicken drumstick; he could not stand it anymore. He snatched the chicken drumstick from Darryl and shouted, “Fine, fine. I will teach you a technique.”
As he spoke, he devoured the chicken drumstick. Then he said to Darryl, “Just one technique, and nothing more.”
Daryl wanted to laugh.
It seemed like the old man could not resist the temptation of a chicken drumstick.
At that moment, Darryl was beyond excited, and he was thankful too. He replied quickly, “Thank you, Mister.”
Jewel was delighted as well. She gave Ford the remaining roast chicken and said, “You must keep your promise, Mister. Don’t forget it.”
Even though Ford had only agreed to teach only one technique, Jewel had figured out his character pretty well after only two days—Ford loved food.
As long as he had agreed to one technique, she would have ways to make him agreeable to a second and third technique.
Ford had eaten half of the roast chicken before the rook Darryl to an empty land.
“Watch closely now. The technique I will teach you is called the Eight Spin Sword technique. I will only show you once; whether you can follow is up to you. If you could not learn it, then it is because you are not talented. Don’t bother me to teach you again. Do you hear me?”
As he said that, Ford raised his sword and started his demonstration.
Even though he had lost a leg, it did not affect him.
Darryl watched Ford’s actions closely; he did not want to miss anything.
Ever since he started cultivation, Darryl had learned many techniques, but none of it could keep him focused.
He had no choice.
Ford had already mentioned that he would only show it to him once, so Darryl dared not lose focus.
