The Legendary Man novel Chapter 619

Chapter 619 Bound By A Treaty

Jonathan activated his spiritual sense and surrounded Lauryn with it while listening to her.

He did that in order to detect changes in her movements which could indicate that she was lying.

Being a fellow cultivator herself, Lauryn could clearly sense what Jonathan was doing.

As Asura’s Office and the respectable families have always been enemies, she had expected Jonathan to react like this when she came to see him.

Even so, she had no choice but to put up with it to avoid marrying Jay.

Jonathan frowned in frustration when he saw that Lauryn was indeed telling the truth.

“Are you saying that I’ll only be able to find out about that after attacking the respectable families?”

Lauryn nodded helplessly in response. “That’s right. The battle from ten years ago was simply far too chaotic. All the Divine cultivators held back in battle as they didn’t want to reveal their hand. In doing so, they provided the three Divine cultivators from the Whitley family some breathing room. Grandpa once said it’s impossible for all eight Divine cultivators to survive that battle. However, the respectable families all had tons of methods to hide the truth from each other, so we couldn’t tell if they survived simply by looking at the extent of their injuries.”

The look on Jonathan’s face turned gloomy when he heard what she said.

How am I supposed to eradicate the respectable families like this? Do I just attack the Osborne residence with a bunch of underlings? Even if we manage to make it to the front door, a Divine cultivator could just show up out of nowhere and destroy us all!

Jonathan rubbed his forehead as he racked his brain to come up with a strategy to deal with the Divine cultivators.

“By the way, someone from one of the Whitley family’s branch families has recently risen to power. Apparently, he has gotten so powerful that none of the respectable families dared make any sudden moves,” Lauryn added.

Jonathan looked up at her in surprise.

“A member of the Whitley family… Are you referring to Joshua?”

“Yes, that’s him,” Lauryn replied with a nod.
