A Man Like None Other novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371 Josephine Is Here

“I don’t know about the others. But the Phoenix Regiment is definitely going to fight for a share of the Whitaker family’s properties. To be honest with you, I have already gotten two real estate agencies of the Whitaker family.” Phoenix displayed a cold smile.

“Phoenix, this is preposterous…”

Upon hearing that, Zachariah slammed the table wrathfully, his gaze filled with hostility.

“Why? Do you want to fight?’

Phoenix showed no weakness at all.

At the moment, the two of them were just about ready to pull out their weapons. All the other martial arts families watched closely and did not say anything.

“All right, that’s enough…”

Before a fight could break out, Luke stood up and tried to ease the situation. “Based on the rule, what Phoenix said is correct. However, it is a special case between the Whitaker family and the Jantz family. Why don’t you both make some compromise? Why don’t the Jantz family give out half of the Whitaker family’s properties? That will solve everything!”

“That’s impossible…”

Zachariah immediately refuted, “I won’t give out even a single penny. I swear I will make you pay it if you insist on getting a share!”

He was beyond exasperated. He would not give up a single property of the Whitaker family. After all, he still needed the money to buy the herbs needed for Crescent Sect.

Being the peacemaker whenever there was a conflict within the alliance, Luke was caught in a rock and a hard place when he saw how Zachariah refused to give in. It seemed to him that a fight could not be avoided this time.

“Let’s go with the old rules then. We’ll compete in the arena!”

Just then, Bane, who had been keeping silent all the while, suddenly weighed in. Upon saying that, he stood up and left the scene.

“Sure. Let’s meet in the arena after three days!”

Bane’s suggestion was exactly what Zachariah wanted. The latter left abruptly as well after saying his piece.

“Arena it is! Do you think I will be afraid?”

Phoenix showed no sign of being intimidated and with a harrumphed, she left too.

 

In the end, Luke was the only one left. He let out a helpless sigh and waved toward the crowd. “All right. The conference is now dismissed…”

The Warriors Alliance Conference only lasted less than ten minutes and ended on a tense note. Even though many martial arts families were not satisfied with the outcome, they were fully aware of their strengths. With that, they had no choice but to keep silent.
