The Legendary Man

“Clear!”

The instant Winston sensed something amiss under his feet, he leaped into the air.

Beside him, a Divine Realm cultivator of the Leeson family parted his lips a fraction. A stream of Pryncyp of Strength shot out and hit the protruding stone spike, shattering it to smithereens.

The Divine Realm cultivator of the Leeson family remarked coldly, “How shameless of you to make a move against your junior, Maxton!”

Hearing that, Maxton Welsh snickered softly. He slowly got to his feet and cast his gaze in the direction of the Leeson family’s camp.

“What a joke. We’re all cultivators, so there’s no order of seniority. If I can’t make a move against someone of a lower cultivation level just because my cultivation level is high, why on earth would I even bother cultivating?”

While saying that, Maxton clasped his hands, bowing slightly to the left and right as a greeting to the various forces.

“Nice to meet you all. Initially, the Welsh family didn’t want to be the one to stand out. But I truly can’t bring myself to agree with what the Leeson family said previously.”

With just those few words, he snagged everyone’s attention.

The crowd trained their gazes on the Welsh family, all curious to know what the elderly man meant by that.

Maxton turned to the Leeson family, the look in his eyes calm and unruffled like pools of dead water.

“Undeniably, it was the Leeson family who discovered this small world. However, it doesn’t belong to them. Earlier, the Leeson family declared that only those with true capabilities would possess the treasures of the earth. But why had you set up a formation and gathered people to keep guard here? Just now, you claimed it was out of fear that various parties would barge in, creating unnecessary fighting that would lead to injuries and casualties. This is my question, then—even if we were to enter together, would we not make a move against each other? I trust you all have the answer inwardly, yes? Ashton Leeson, are you not guarding this entrance to give that old geezer, Quintus, more time in the small world to pillage more things? We’ve given you the appropriate respect, but if you continue insisting on keeping this formation in place, I’d really suspect that the Leeson family is planning to monopolize the secrets in this small world.”

As soon as his words rang out, all the cultivators cut their gazes at those of the Leeson family.

In the crosshairs of the auras of numerous Divine Realm cultivators, Ashton could not help feeling a touch suffocated despite being a patriarch who had seen much in life.
