The Legendary Man Chapter 999-Those people were the core members of the eight respectable families’ auxiliary bloodlines.
However, to prevent them from posing any threats to the main lineage, these people were absolutely forbidden from returning to their ancestral land.
As a result, if the eight respectable families wanted to protect them, they had to employ cultivators in the Grandmaster Realm and above to safeguard those members of the auxiliary bloodlines.
Nevertheless, doing so would inevitably drain the ancestral land’s strength.
Moreover, they couldn’t keep those people from moving about and have them stay in safe places all the time.
After all, if those members of the auxiliary bloodlines stopped managing their external forces, they would lose their worth to the ancestral lands, and without value, there would be no need to preserve them.
Those valuable to the ancestral land needed protection, but excessive sheltering would render their existence meaningless.
The situation was paradoxical, forming a logical loop that left the eight respectable families with no solution, and that was Jonathan’s revenge against them.
According to his plan, that was only the first step.
The bounty was his way of pressuring the eight respectable families, while the second step was to let them acknowledge his lunacy.
Jonathan had many concerns when he was a part of Asura’s Office.
His every decision, whether to fight or surrender, to defend or attack, affected the lives of nearly two million people.
But now, after leaving Asura’s Office, Jonathan was no longer bogged down by scruples.
Since the Osborne family kidnapped Josephine, Jonathan could begin retaliating against them.
A freely-moving God Realm elite could easily eradicate all possessions held by the Osborne family outside the ancestral land.
So what if they were one of the respectable families?
They only had a few God Realm elites, and there was no way all members of the Osborne family’s auxiliary bloodlines in the whole Chanaea could be assigned a God Realm bodyguard each.
Even if the Osborne family was capable of accomplishing that, it was uncertain whether those God Realm cultivators were Jonathan’s match.
No one could say for sure if those God Realm cultivators would play the role of a bodyguard or merely be tasked to court death.
Jonathan hailed a car and headed straight to Osborne Group in Horington.
The Osborne family’s business was expansive, spanning various industries and covering the entire Chanaea.
Their most representative asset was Osborne Group.
Osborne Group was one of the top ten real estate companies in Chanaea, and its headquarters was located at Horington.
The taxi stopped in front of Osborne Group. After Jonathan paid the fare and got out of the vehicle, he instantaneously felt a sense of oppression.
Osborne Group was located in the city center, and the area was a genuine central business district.
Regardless of day or night, that place should’ve been bustling with people instead of featuring the deserted scene it was now.
Looking around, Jonathan noticed four black sedans parked at each corner of the plaza in front of the building.
Jonathan extended his spiritual sense and detected a Grandmaster Realm cultivator’s aura from each of the four black vehicles.
The cultivators in the cars reacted almost immediately after Jonathan unleashed his spiritual sense.
Four figures dashed out from the vehicles, landed around Jonathan, and surrounded him.
“Who are you?” one of the burly men asked Jonathan coldly.
At that moment, Jonathan suppressed his spiritual energy, so it was impossible to discern whether he was a Grandmaster Realm or Superior Realm cultivator by studying the fluctuation of his aura.
Otherwise, those four Grandmasters wouldn’t have dared to challenge a God Realm cultivator.
Jonathan grinned at the brawny man in front of him. “I’d like to meet with the person in charge here and discuss the incident related to the attacks on the Osborne family today.”
Swoosh!
A piercing sound reverberated in the air as Jonathan raised his right arm and clasped a razor-sharp dagger, his hand now enveloped in a dragon claw formed entirely from spiritual energy.
Crack!
