The Legendary Man Chapter 1004-“What’s so strange about that? The respectable families have been in existence for thousands of years. This happens if any of the members gets married and has kids eight to ten years later than the others of their generation. Besides, if we’re going strictly by seniority, then I technically surpass that old man Everett in terms of seniority! However, the seniority ranking is only reserved for those who are incapable in the Osborne family. Everett is regarded as our ninth elder because he has reached God Realm. That is an ironclad rule that no one can defy,” Jay said in the most casual tone possible.
Jonathan let out a huge sigh after hearing Jay’s explanation.
“In that case, Everett, Kimberly, and Barnaby would make three God Realm cultivators in a single family. That’s a little ridiculous if you ask me.”
With the exception of myself, Karl, and Wilbur, all the other God Realm cultivators in Chanaea are from the eight respectable families. I can’t believe Everett alone has three God Realm cultivators in that little family of his! Now I see why Everett was able to take Jay’s place!
“You don’t understand the respectable families well enough. Pretty much every elder from the respectable families would invest all of their available resources in their future generations. Even the most insignificant members of the respectable families tend to possess wealth and resources that would make others green with envy. Given the amount of material wealth and resources we own, there is literally no need for us to hoard anything. The only thing that can threaten us is our own family members and the seven other respectable families. Therefore, once a person has control over the flow of wealth and resources within the family, everyone will side with that person’s future generations. Everett invested a huge amount of resources in Kimberly and Barnaby when he was the head butler. Those two were only able to reach God Realm with the help of spiritual energy.”
Jonathan was reminded of Ksana when he heard what Jay said.
I bet that girl is having the time of her life sunbathing in the warm climate of Terrence’s territory right now. I sent her off after giving up on my plan to head over to Mount Enly, but I promised Seboxia I’d help him retrieve the emperor’s heart. Also, I’m heading over to Sanctuary to obtain the method to produce God Realm cultivators. While mass-producing sentient Grandmaster Realm cultivators may not be possible even though I have brought Charleigh back, we can at least replenish the Grandmaster Realm cultivators of Asura’s Office. Research and advanced technology alone cannot produce God Realm cultivators in a short period of time, though. Regardless, I will be sure to bring back a huge amount of Holy Blood from Sanctuary even if I fail to find the method to produce God Realm cultivators! I have no idea what Holy Blood may do to the people at Asura’s Office, but I can’t afford to worry about that now. It might lead to an addiction problem, but guys like Charleigh and Jason should be able to handle it.
Oblivious to Jonathan’s change in expression, Jay continued talking about his plan.
“Everett plans on getting his children into the Osborne family’s management level once he rises to power. He sent them over to Doveston to capture Joshua Whitley so they could take credit for it.”
“I see…” Jonathan nodded absent-mindedly, only to snap out of his dazed state and ask, “Wait, who were you talking about?”
Startled by his sudden outburst, Jay took a few seconds to recall his words before replying, “Kimberly and Barnaby, of course.”
“No, not those two. Who did you say they were looking for in Doveston?”
“Joshua Whitley. What about it?” Jay stared at Jonathan in confusion as he continued, “Haven’t you heard? Joshua has shown up in Delisgar Ridge of Doveston.”
“How would I have heard of that?” Jonathan retorted with his eyes wide.
He had spent the majority of his time running for his life throughout the past six months, so he couldn’t possibly have time to worry about Joshua.
All he knew was that Wilbur took over after Joshua went missing during the power struggle in Yaleview.
Since Joshua was like a general without his army, Jonathan wasn’t about to waste his time and energy searching for him.
Besides, the intelligence network in Doveston was down when Joshua made his way into Delisgar Ridge, so there was no way for them to relay that information over to Asura’s Office.
Asura’s Office had little to no control over Doveston at the time, so it didn’t have the resources to look up such information either.
