Chapter 676
The Legendary Man
Chapter 676 Station In Horbah Jonathan charged toward Karl, with a bloodthirsty aura right after. Spiritual energy exploded around Karl, pushing everyone else away. The spiritual energy of two God Realm cultivators clashed, sending a violent shock wave into the surrounding.
âI wouldâve been living fine if you didnât come, Jonathan!â Karl said with an intense gaze.
âDo you know you and the two hundred thousand Yaleview Army who suddenly placed in Doveston couldâve destroyed all my plans?â
âDestroy all your plans?â Jonathan appeared in front of Karl in a flash and swung his fist at Karlâs chin.
Boom! The punch sent Karl flying over ten meters, taking down five tents. Meanwhile, only an afterimage of Jonathan could be seen dashing toward Karlâs direction.
âDo you know your retarded plan resulted in fifty thousand casualties of Mysonna Army? Dorian is currently being rescued in Mysonna as we speak. Is this your bullsh*t of a plan?â Jonathan asked coldly. He clenched his fists and slammed them against Karlâs chest.
Boom!
Karlâs body tumbled to the ground.
The ground cracked from the impact. Karl gave threw a cold stare at Jonathan who was ten meters away.
âJonathan, if youâre looking for a fight, letâs fight as commanders and deploy our troops. Fighting with our bare hands and feet canât determine the winner in such a short time.â
Karl waved his hand in the air, and a machete appeared in his grip.
Jonathan straightened his back at the sight.
âKarl, when I first met you, you were just a Grandmaster in the beginner phase. I was the one who trained you and helped you break through to God Realm. I have found the threshold of breaking through to the advanced phase of God Realm. With my current power, itâs only a matter of minutes if I want to kill you. Iâll remember the debt you owe Mysonna, and Iâll slowly take it back from you, bit by bit.â
Jonathan rose to his feet and walked over to Karlâs side.
âI want every information you have on the Medved Army, and let me in on your so-called plan. The state of Chanaea is messier than you can imagine.â
Jonathan and Karl walked toward the main tent across the mess. Among the generals following behind the two, only Sawyer trailed after them into the main tent.
Karl pulled out a random chair in the tent and gestured at Jonathan.
âSit.â
Jonathan took a seat and got comfortable by the fire.
At that moment, Sawyer rushed through the flap with a smile.
âIt sure is cold here in Horbah.â
Karl frowned at Sawyerâs presence. âWe have something to discuss, and it is of utmost confidentiality.
Iâm sure you must be exhausted today, Sawyer. Why donât you go and get some rest?â
âIâm not tired,â Sawyer answered with a smile.
âYou guys discuss, and Iâll listen from the sides. I promise I wonât interrupt.â
Looking at Sawyerâs innocent-looking face, Karl snickered. He unleashed his spiritual energy and directed it at Sawyer.
In the face of danger, Sawyerâs instinct as a Grandmaster in the beginner phase kicked in. He immediately tapped into his powers and shielded himself by extending a force field around him. He pumped the air with spiritual energy, keeping it at a one-meter radius around him so that he doesnât bend down to the pressure.
âKarl, even though Iâm subjected to Asuraâs arrangement, donât ever forget that Iâm part of Yaleview Army,â Sawyer said with a wide smile as he tried his best to withstand the pressure.
âLook, everyone is smart. Iâm sure youâre well aware of the reason for my presence here. Sure, you can chase me out of the tent now. Give me half a day, and I assure you Iâll withdraw all the supplies and combatants.â
Karl unleashed another sharp pulse of spiritual energy into the air at Sawyerâs words.
Spiritual energy pulsed around Jonathan, and a force field enveloped Sawyer instantly.
âThatâs enough. I know Wilburâs character well enough. Sawyer can make it happen if he says so. Why do you think Wilbur sent two hundred thousand armies as your reinforcement against Remdikâs Medved Army if thereâs no one to send updates in Doveston back to him? Do you think he did it out of love for you?â
Jonathanâs words were like a punch to Karl. The pressure Karl maintained wavered slightly before it completely dispersed.
âListen all you want, but Iâll kill you if you dare to speak,â Karl warned as he sat in his seat.
Turning his gaze back to Jonathan, Karl let out a sigh before he fessed up about his strategy.
Karl used a full thirty minutes to finish explaining the plot he planned against Remdikâs Medved Army and the eight respectable families.
Sawyerâs face was flushed with excitement. His eyes gleamed with admiration for Karl.
Jonathan felt his head hurt as he looked down at the relationship chart drawn according to Karlâs description.
Asuraâs Office agreed to collaborate with the Osborne family because of Josephine. Meanwhile, Yaleview Army has an agreement with the Salladay family. If my assumption is correct, regardless of Lauryn from Edenic Heights, or the Osborne family itself, they shouldâve already leaked the news about Asuraâs Office by now. In that case, the remaining families would fight more intensely for collaboration with Eastern Army.
âIf my speculation is correct, Layla and Killian will die,â Jonathan said casually.
Layla was Karlâs wife. Jonathan had met her once before. She was a woman with a gentle disposition.
As for Killian, he was Karlâs seven-year-old son.
At that moment, Karlâs eyes turned red when Jonathan pointed out the truth.
âThey have a high possibility of dying but wonât die for sure.â
Jonathan looked over his shoulder at Sawyer. âHe brought two hundred thousand armies with him. In addition to your a hundred and sixty thousand armies, thatâs more than enough to annihilate Medved Army, but the casualties will be at least a hundred and fifty thousand.â
Karl looked up at Sawyer.
However, Sawyer flashed them a smile.
âYaleview Army is only responsible for defense, and not expansion. If you want to cross River Onxy to fight, feel free to do so.â
Jonathan returned his gaze to Karl. âLetâs go and see Aidan. Heâs already an old rival of ours. I want to talk to him too.â
â¦
Delisgar Ridge was an important mountain range that cut across the northeast of Horbah, separating Chanaea and Remdik.
The primary forest there was protected by both Remdik and Chanaea and was a restricted area where trespassing was strictly prohibited.
At that moment, two afterimages passed through the ridge at a fast pace into the deeper parts of the mountain.
âJoshua, are you sure this is the direction?â
Hayden held a long sword and slashed across every branch blocking his sight.
âWhy canât we take the ridge? Why do we have to take the hard way by going through this forest?â
Joshua followed behind Hayden with a resigned look.
âThe thicket here is too dense. I canât survey the terrain even if Iâm standing at the peak of the mountain. However, the general direction that weâre heading in is accurate. If we trek in this direction for another night, we should reach the Whitley familyâs real ancestral land.â
âAnother night?â
Hayden felt like crying at that two words.
âJoshua, I suddenly realized that collaborating with you wasnât such a bright idea. Why do you want to be one of the respectable families? Isnât life going great for you being the trust fund baby you are now?â
âTrust fund baby?â Joshua chuckled. âWhen I was slightly well off, I didnât pull out from the game of fame and wealth, so now itâs already too late. One of the respectable families will obliterate the Zink family if you donât become one of them.â
