Feeling confused, Hanson asked, "In that case, please tell me, where should I look for this dragon clan cultivator, Patron?"
The Patron replied, "Wilbur Penn is exceptional. I've heard that during the conflict among the four major families, Wilbur managed to fend off Dorrah's Senior Guard, Mike, who is a talisman cultivator. There are not many who can defeat a Senior Guard. Besides, Grote and Conrad are now loyal to Lord Babbit. These two could not be the ones who fought against Wilbur."
Hanson frowned and asked, "Do you mean that the other dragon clan cultivator is Babbit himself? But Babbit owns the Azure Dragon Lake. He can obtain the energy from the Azure Dragon Lake just like Wilbur, so he can't be a real dragon clan cultivator."
"In that case, there's only one suspect left," said the Patron.
"Who is it?" asked Hanson.
"Lord Edmund," the Patron stated.
"What? Lord Edmund? How can this be? Why would he attack Wilbur?"
"I thought it was strange too, but there was some special connection between Edmund and Babbit. Otherwise, Edmund would not have eased the pressure on the Four Great Families. Perhaps Babbit tried to use Edmund to get rid of Wilbur."
Hanson asked in a shocked voice, "If Wilbur fought Lord Edmund that day and survived, does that mean he's just as powerful as Lord Edmund? Oh my god, I can't believe he's as powerful as the City Lord."
Hanson was someone who held grudges, so he would not forget his grudge against Wilbur after losing in a fight with him. He saw Wilbur as a future enemy.
He lost his cool when he heard from the Patron that Wilbur was as powerful as Lord Edmund. However, the Patron remained calm and said, "It's possible. A deal between Babbit and Edmund is not easy to achieve. Perhaps they fought each other and were both heavily injured and thus were forced into some sort of temporary truce. Think about it. It's quite possible for a heavily-injured Edmund to reach a standstill with Wilbur who went all-out in the fight."
"I see. What should we do next?"
