The Legendary Man Chapter 996-“I don’t think so!” Sirius shot Stellario a cold look and added, “I don’t understand. The Mallory family has plenty of cultivators. Why did they send a childish snob like you? Now, in Chanaea, there are plenty of things that require the eight families to gather. We’re all the representatives of respectable families. You’re only stirring the pot with that temper of yours.”
While listening to Sirius talk, Stellario had already crossed his fingers on his left hand and got ready to cast spells. “F*ck you! How dare you! I’m going to—”
“Stellario!” Before Stellario could finish his sentence, Winston, who was sitting next to Stellario, stood up and held Stellario down by the shoulder.
Stellario turned toward Winston and asked, “What are you doing? Are you helping them take me down?”
Kathleen was sitting next to Winston, and she was wearing a mink dress. With a smile, she said, “Winston isn’t taking you down. He’s asking you to calm yourself down. Come here, Stellario. Let me hug you. Keep in mind what we’re here for today. There are three thousand people on the bounty list, and one life is worth a million. That’s three billion. Do you want the Mallory family to go extinct?”
Stellario looked at Kathleen’s red lips and swept everyone else a glance before abandoning his intention to kill and slumping into his chair unhesitatingly. “The Mallory family isn’t as cold-blooded as the rest of you. All members of the Mallory family are equal.”
Meanwhile, there was a strong man sitting next to Sirius.
That man was Cody Welsh, the fourth elder of the Welsh family.
During the incident in Remdik, the only person from the eight respectable families that died was Morris of the Welsh family.
Hence, the Welsh family had a different representative this time around, and that was Cody.
Cody let out a cold snort and looked at Stellario, Kathleen, and Winston disdainfully. “It seems like the Mallory family, the Henderson family, and the Leeson family are really a close-knit pack! I wonder if the Leeson family has told you guys about the leads they found in Delisgar Ridge.”
Cody was very blunt with his words, and as soon as those words fell, everyone shifted their attention toward Winston.
There were a total of four matters that concerned all eight respectable families at the same time.
They were all concerned with the war between Chanaea and Remdik, Asura’s Office’s situation, and the members of their auxiliary bloodlines getting assassinated.
The fourth was an issue that Jonathan had nothing to do with, and that was the fact that Joshua Whitley had appeared in Delisgar Ridge.
Joshua, who held the Whitley family’s secret treasure, was a common target of the eight respectable families.
Prior to that, the Leeson family found Joshua, but they lost him.
In order to avenge those disciples, the Leeson family told the rest of the seven respectable families about the incident.
At that moment, there were at least eight God Realm cultivators and over two hundred Grandmaster Realm cultivators searching in Delisgar Ridge.
However, none of them could find any traces of Joshua.
After all, Delisgar Ridge was the largest primeval forest in Doveston. Even for a few hundred people, searching for Joshua was like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Yet, according to the analysis done by the other families, they were certain that Joshua had a specific reason for entering Delisgar Ridge.
Otherwise, he could’ve easily gone to Adrune if he wanted to flee.
That way, the eight respectable families wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.
In other words, something was keeping Joshua in Delisgar Ridge.
The Leeson family was from Doveston, so only they would know what was keeping Joshua there.
Eva, who was sitting opposite Winston, was playing with a jade piece carved in the shape of a beast in her hand.
