Chapter 473: 288_1
“Stop fussing.” Logan yawned, ignoring the dozen or so people outright, and even pulled up a chair himself, sitting down to wait for the head of the Westman Family to return, which really agitated them.
Who in the city didn’t know who these people were, they were the fifteen elders of the Westman Family, each one of them is in the Throne Realm, and the leading Grand Elder was even in the Dominator Realm, even the City Lord would dare not ignore them like this.
One of the elders stepped forward and rebuked, “Young man, you are taking liberty too far, bringing two worthless underlings to provoke the Westman Family, even if you had ten lives, it wouldn’t be enough, if you’re wise, bow your head, maybe we can spare your life.”
“Your family head wouldn’t dare be so bold either, what are you group of old men to me? Don’t chirp on the side, if you’re unhappy, you can fight, if you don’t dare, then just stay on the side and wait quietly for the head of the Westman Family to return.”
Logan raised an eyebrow, unmoved, because none of these people in his eyes were worth giving serious attention to, they were all half-footed in the grave when they reached the Throne, their talent for cultivation was so poor, if it wasn’t for their age and grasping on to the title of Elder, how could they get so arrogant?
Shingo Butcher was at loss for words, whispering, “We can’t be careless, the two strongest among them are already Dominators, once the head of the Westman Family returns and they band together, the battle situation will certainly be unfavorable for us. This is after all the Westman’s territory, if we can’t win, it’s not like we can run anywhere.”
“You just don’t understand, if you keep your profile low, these group of old heads of the Westman Family will only become more arrogant. The more arrogant you are, the more apprehensive they will be, thinking that there must be someone behind you.”
Logan said with a faint smile, and now that they had come today, they no longer intended to resolve things peacefully with the Westman Family. With the family head not saying anything, a group of elders were blaming himself, which was extremely upsetting to him.
The leading elder glanced at Logan and coldly said, “Young man, arrogance always comes with a price. You came here today and tarnished the face of the Westman Family, why are you acting so confident? The Westman Family has been very low-key these years, but that doesn’t mean we could be slaughtered at will.”
“It’s simple, the Westman Family owes me two hundred thousand spirit stones.” Logan shrugged his shoulders, looking at the elders with amusement, it’s perfectly reasonable for him to collect his own debt, if the Westman Family insists on not paying, they will be the laughingstock, and all their face will be lost.
When the two hundred thousand spirit stones were mentioned, the elderly men couldn’t help but narrow their eyes, thinking about the incident when the head of the family took away two hundred thousand spirit stones. They had just been preparing to question him about it when suddenly such a catastrophe broke out, intuition told them that these two incidents might be related, but why would this young man come to their door?
While the leading elder was still pondering, one of the elders couldn’t sit still: “This must be a trick thing between him and the family head, the family head took away two hundred thousand spirit stones probably to give to this young man, then the two people divided it privately, with the Westman Family being the one who was cheated in the end.”
“The family head has been indulging his son all this time, and we’ve been tolerating it, but now he clearly wants to negate the Westman Family, his heart is too malicious, and we must make the family head step down, and remove this young man who is a collaborator.”
“The son of the third elder is fit for great responsibility, although he’s only from a sideline, he has reached a high-ranking Overstep in his early twenties. If he could have the cultivation resources of the Young Master of the Westman Family, he would surely reach the Throne Realm within half a year.”
The other elders were also indignant. When they thought about the head of the family’s mean actions, they all got angry. The spirit stones in the treasury don’t belong to the family head, instead, they are commonly owned by all the members of the Westman Family. The family head took away two hundred thousand at once, did he really want the people of the Westman Family to starve?
The leading elder waved his hand and said, “Everyone, calm down a bit, don’t speculate based on hearsay, if it’s true that the family head is conspiring with this young man, coming to our door now would be like throwing oneself into a trap, there must be some kind of accident, let’s discuss it thoroughly when the head of the family returns.”
“It’s definitely because the distribution was not fair, perhaps, being too greedy, the family head only gave this young man a few thousand spirit stones. This way the family head took the whole two hundred thousand, the young man, feeling wronged, must’ve come to ask for it, otherwise, how could he say that the Westman Family owes him spirit stones?”
One elder sneered, thinking that there was no need to consider too much, as it was a fact that the head of the family took away two hundred thousand spirit stones without discussing it with the elders, the matter was already set in stone and it couldn’t be slander. The Grand Elder was simply too kind.
Moreover, the news circulating today was that the family head had gone to an inn all alone, then went to deal with troubles for his son, and even made peace with a few no-name people, completely losing face for the Westman Family. If such a family head continues to preside, the Westman Family would be laughed to death.
The elder leading the group frowned, feeling that it was full of intrigue. The head of the Westman Family was a person who acted cautiously, if he was really plotting with others to divide the Westman Family’s spirit stones, he wouldn’t be allowing Logan to come to their door, he would’ve silenced him long ago. Wasn’t the family head chasing after the person who stole the spirit stones just now?
At this point, Logan burst into laughter, stood up and spoke: “You guys are just guessing wildly, none of you have figured it out yet. The family head did promise me two hundred thousand spirit stones, but it wasn’t a conspiracy between us, it was simply because the family head’s cultivation realm was too low, so he had no choice but to agree limitly.”
“Nonsense, the family head is already in the Dominator realm, second only to the city lord in strength in this city, and you, at best, are just a Throne, how dare you brag about others being low?”
An elder was furious, thinking that this young man was crazy, presumably suggesting that he is stronger than the head of the Westman Family, if that was the case, it would be ridiculous, it has been hundreds of years since a Dominator has been beaten by a Throne, who would believe that if he said it out loud?
The other elders felt the same, if it was not for the Grand Elder who hadn’t spoken yet, they couldn’t wait to rush up and give Logan a beating, his actions were too reckless, don’t forget this is the main gate of the Westman Family, and there are thousands of people watching from the side, does he really think the Westman Family doesn’t have a temper?
