The Legendary Man

Winston’s gaze turned cold as he surveyed the dragon-patterned jade pendant before him, which represented Ashton’s authority as the patriarch.

“Ashton, you don’t have to do this. It hasn’t come to that point yet.”

Winston attempted to return the dragon-patterned jade pendant to Ashton but to no avail.

Ashton frowned at Winston.

“Winston, you knew all along that I’ve never wanted to be the patriarch of the Leeson family. Father forced me into this position. I remember him promising me I’d be free to go once he found someone suited for the role. Yet for fifteen years, it had never once happened. The Leeson family’s strength will go through a tectonic shift now that Mr. Quintus has entered the chaos portal. While I might survive this pandemonium, it’s best to have a backup in place. The Larson family can’t be without a leader if I get beheaded by one of the cultivators.”

Winston stared at the dragon-patterned jade pendant hesitantly before finally reaching to take it.

“All right. I’ll take this and lead the Leeson family after your death.”

There wasn’t a need to exchange pleasantries and formalities between blood brothers.

They’d promptly decided upon the future authority of the Leeson family. The only thing left for them to do was to bide their time.

The other respectable families would know of their decision sooner or later. As such, the Leeson family members needed to buy more time for Quintus.

A stream of silhouettes dashed toward the ridge on both sides of the valley from the south. They were all cultivators of the Leeson family.

Including Ashton and his group, the Leeson family appointed twelve God Realm cultivators in total and about two hundred Grandmaster Realms.

While not all of the Leeson family’s high-level cultivators were appointed, almost all of them were deployed.

The ones remaining stayed behind to guard the ancestral land.

After all, no matter how many secrets the small world contained, luck and fate were the ultimate deciding factors. Even if there were abundant treasures hidden within, there was no guarantee that they could lay their hands on the prizes.
