Chapter 619 Bound By A Treaty

Jonathan activated his spiritual sense and surrounded Lauryn with it while listening to her.

He did that in order to detect changes in her movements which could indicate that she was lying.

Being a fellow cultivator herself, Lauryn could clearly sense what Jonathan was doing.

As Asura’s Office and the respectable families have always been enemies, she had expected Jonathan to react like this when she came to see him.

Even so, she had no choice but to put up with it to avoid marrying Jay.

Jonathan frowned in frustration when he saw that Lauryn was indeed telling the truth.

That person was none other than Joshua Whitley himself. Right as they were planning on killing him, they realized his family had been ostracized so much that he didn’t even know he was from a respectable family. Since the order they received was to kill all direct members of the Whitley family, Joshua was spared as he didn’t fit that classification. Since all of Chanaea was plunged into chaos after the Whitley family’s annihilation, the country desperately needed a commander-in-chief to maintain order. Whoever obtained that role would be able to benefit their family greatly, so the eight
