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.

“Are you saying that I’ll only be able to find out about that after attacking the respectable families?”

Lauryn nodded helplessly in response. “That’s right. The battle from ten years ago was simply far too chaotic. All the Divine cultivators held back in battle as they didn’t want to reveal their hand.

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 respectable families argued over who it should belong to. Eventually, they decided to have Joshua take the role because of his unique identity. They figured he would make the perfect candidate as he couldn’t possibly collaborate with

power with the help of the eight respectable families? I feel like something is off about Joshua’s past, but I can’t quite put my finger on it. He relied on the resources from the eight respectable families to quickly rise to power, only to kick them all aside after gaining a foothold in Yaleview. A man with such schemes can’t possibly have gotten this far with sheer luck alone. Was it something the Whitley family left behind? Joshua may be from a branch family, but the others must’ve really hated the Whitley family to the bone if they wanted to wipe it out completely. I might be able to use
