Milton Cheney's original intention was not to kill for fortune but merely to exchange resources for Octavius Yarrow's cultivation method.
Even the resources he put up for exchange were undoubtedly what Octavius Yarrow needed most at the moment.
There are some things in this world that Milton Cheney couldn't fathom. Since Octavius Yarrow was able to obtain fortune within the Immortal Sect's Mystic Realm, does it mean that the lad's fate is not trifling?
After all, Octavius Yarrow was born with a Thunder Spiritual Root and the fortune had actively come into his hands.
This situation was extremely similar to the favored by fate characters in the novels that Milton Cheney had read in his previous life.
If Milton Cheney really killed this person, would he suffer fate's backlash?
These were all possibilities, but uncertain.
Because Milton Cheney couldn't guarantee it.
Of course, it's also possible that this person might be the pawn of some significant figure.
