The Legendary Man Chapter 1269-Neil was being blunt, but at that moment, it left Joshua at a loss for words.
Indeed, the White family was once betrayed by the four vassal families, forcing them to flee far beyond the small world. Even if they were to return, it should be after a period of recuperation and recovery.
But now, Joshua was the only member left in the Whitley family.
Even if Neil were to wage war against Yannopolis with schemes and strategies that have been in the making for two thousand years, would it still be considered an attack from the Whitley family?
Why should thousands of people die for Joshua’s sake when he had emerged several generations after the betrayal?
Hayden turned to Kathleen standing beside him.
“Look. This is all because of you eight families. If you had destroyed the Whitley family, we wouldn’t be in such a predicament right now.”
Upon hearing this, Kathleen rolled her eyes at Hayden.
“Who do you think you are? Don’t forget, two God Realm cultivators from the Zeigler family also participated in the war that annihilated the Whitley family years ago. Do you really believe that you’ve suddenly become the embodiment of justice? In the conflicts between the great clans where interests always come first, there’s no such thing as right or wrong and good or evil.”
Joshua stared at Neil wordlessly.
In the end, he hung his head in helplessness.
“He’s right. The Whitley family no longer has the right to bring up the past. We’ve been cut off for two thousand years. We’re not worthy, nor do we have the strength. Neil had risked a lot to get me out of the Outer City of Yannopolis. I already owe him a great deal.”
He bowed slightly at Neil as he spoke.
“Neil, you’re right about what you said, but I still want to ask you for a favor.”
Neil gave Joshua a look before he took a seat on the rocking chair.
“Well then, why don’t you tell me about it? And what’s in it for me if I help you?”
“Do you have no shame?” Hayden raised his voice at Neil. “Your two families have shared a bond that spans two thousand years. Hasn’t the Yarnell family also upheld this bond for two thousand years?”
Neil sneered at Hayden.
“Kid, I figured you were all in it together, so I brought you here out of respect for you. If you continue to provoke me, I’ll have you buried here.”
Neil emanated spiritual energy as he spoke.
Jonathan and the others knew Neil well enough to know that he wasn’t joking.
“What exactly do you mean? Please clarify so we know how to work together.”
After a long silence, Jonathan, who was sitting by the side, finally spoke up.
He had been observing Neil’s reaction ever since Joshua started recounting the history of the Whitley family.
Even though Neil appeared indifferent, Jonathan could clearly sense a faint spiritual sense emanating from Neil.
It clearly showed that he didn’t want to miss out on any detail of what Joshua was saying, even going so far as to capture Joshuan’s body language.
Hence, Jonathan could conclude that Neil was definitely not as he appeared to be.
Joshua would definitely be of great use to him.
Neil looked at Jonathan before turning to Seboxia, who was standing next to him.
“I don’t like you, you’re too good at reading people’s minds.”
Neil’s words left Jonathan at a loss.
