Sabotaging a rich family for personal gain was common enough, and Wilbur was not surprised in the slightest.
However, whether or not Jean's father was able to recover from his illness would be a problem.
The internal conflict, the brothers arguing and fighting over who got the company was a comparatively small problem.
Wilbur needed to travel there to have a look personally for him to make a decision.
A pause later, Wilbur said, "Well, I'll help you out for sure since I've taken your gift. Give me three days, and I'll head back with you. How's that?"
Jean looked clearly anxious but did not protest.
He had no choice but to nod.
After all, he had spent quite a bit of effort and money to find Wilbur.
This man was the head of the Kardon Province Cultivators Association, the real boss of Cape Consortium, and a powerful Sanctuary level cultivator. Any one of those achievements was shocking enough.
It was also said that there was nothing he could not do.
Jean's family did not have a long legacy, but he had a few Ambience level cultivators serving as his bodyguards.
Based on the bodyguards' words, Jean was able to figure out just how powerful someone at the Sanctuary level was.
He had no choice but to go to Wilbur in hopes that he would be able to help.
The crown had indeed been passed down by his grandfather and had been protected safely at home this whole time.
In fact, Jean had stolen the crown from his family, taking a risky gamble.
Wilbur smiled. "You can get some rest here. We leave in three days."
He got up to return to his room, coming up to Faye.
