Chapter 208
Brock, as Brandon’s direct disciple and a Grand Master, was once a popular candidate. to compete to be the lord.
But he couldn’t take a move from Leonard. With Leonard’s palm strike, his neck was broken, and he was sent flying.
Seeing this, everyone present wondered how powerful Leonard was.
“If anyone else wants to stand up for Stuart, just come at me.”
Leonard strode up to Brock, raised his foot, and stepped on Brock’s neck.
With a click, Brock, who was still struggling, died, and blood flowed from his mouth.
“You…”
In the crowd, people from Brandon’s faction roared. Their eyes were red, and they wanted to tear Leonard alive.
Some people took out their weapons, clenched their fists, and were about to rush
out.
“Calm down, everyone.”
Cedric’s face darkened.
He thought that Brock could fight against Leonard, but he didn’t expect that Brock would die so quickly. He didn’t even have time to attack.
Looking at the angry crowd, Cedric scolded, “Leonard is the young lord. You can’t offend him. But if he makes a mistake, he will also be punished.”
Cedric was also angry.
However, he was cunning and would not be so impulsive as to attack Leonard directly. Instead, he would first lay the blame on Leonard so that Leonard would be doomed.
After Cedric reprimanded his people, he stared at Leonard with cold eyes. “Brock just asked you a few questions, and you killed him directly. You are so cruel. I know you are the successor personally selected by Lord Clarkson, but you need to give us an explanation.”
“Haha, Elder Martinez, you said all this because you want me to resign and kill me, right?”
In the center of the hall, Leonard had a sneer on his face. He scanned the elders with his sharp eyes and said loudly, “Since Ibrahim chose me to be the successor of the Galen Group, I can’t embarrass him. You
form factions and manage your people, but in my opinion, you are just a mob.
“Listen, anyone can attack me today. If you can kill me, then replace me as the young lord. But if you can’t, you will be killed. instead.”
“You are so brave.
Since you said that, don’t regret it.” Cedric’s eyes lit up.
No matter what excuses they made to attack Leonard, they would be accused of treason.
But Leonard said that whoever killed him could replace him as the young lord, which gave them a reason to take action.
“How arrogant you are. Relying on your own strength, you look down on us.” Egbert snorted coldly, “You ask for this. Since you said that, we will satisfy you.”
Leonard glanced at Egbert emotionlessly and said coldly, “I will take your head clean off later.”
“I am right here. Try to take it.” Egbert was furious.
