BXBX NOVEL Chapter 569: 359 Encounter_1
He originally didn’t want to get involved and planned to quickly leave with Bart Cloud. However, the young man waved his hand, and the old man blocked Logan’s path.
“Boy, didn’t you hear what this young master said? You were quite generous when shopping at the market. You must have brought a lot of Spirit Stones, right? Hand them over to this young master immediately.”
Lila Summer smirked playfully, her eyes filled with disdain, “Although this young master doesn’t lack Spirit Stones, I just find you annoying. You rejected a toast only to drink a forfeit. Now that this city is full of holes, do you still expect your high and mighty lord to protect you?”
“So what?” Logan’s expression turned sour. He didn’t want to pay any attention to this sort of lower-class person. But why did they insist on coming closer to him? Even though they were from a major sect or family clan, what conflict did they have with him?
“Still pretending?” Lila Summer laughed loudly and said, “According to reliable information, Sandy Wexler has been crippled. He used up all his cultivation to resist the City-protecting Array, and now this city is like a land without a master. Who knows who it will belong to tomorrow?”
“Behave and hand over the Spirit Stones. Don’t make us, young masters, angry. We are from the nearby number one sect, the Supreme Sect. It’s not something you can afford to provoke.”
The old man also spoke up at this moment, with a hint of coercion in his voice, “The young master has a good temper, but it doesn’t mean you can continue to be presumptuous. Being able to ask you for Spirit Stones is already giving you face. Under normal circumstances, we would have started a direct confrontation.”
“Supreme Sect? Never heard of it.” Logan shook his head straightforwardly. They were nothing but people acting recklessly under the protection of their sect. He had met many such people, but none of them escaped unscathed after dealing with him.
Lila Summer became angry all of a sudden and ordered the old man, “Old Yun, teach Logan a lesson for me. I didn’t bring enough Spirit Stones today, and so I thought to borrow some from him, but he has no savoir-faire and even dares to provoke me?”
“Young Master, the Sect Leader had ordered before that many forces will surge into the city in these two days. We should keep a low profile and not act recklessly.”
The old man frowned, somewhat hesitant, “Although Sandy Wexler is crippled, I heard that there was a mysterious young man in the battle yesterday…using a terrifying array to turn the tide. If he wants to become the new lord, it would be harmful to us!”
“What’s there to be afraid of? It’s just dealing with two irrelevant people. How much…trouble can it cause?” Lila Summer sneered, telling the old man to go ahead. Now, the city is in complete chaos, and it would be nothing out of the ordinary if two people suddenly died.
The old man thought about it, too. Besides, he was extremely displeased with Logan. When he saw that Logan was just an ordinary cultivator, he wondered how he dared to offend the Supreme Sect? The Supreme Sect was the number one major sect nearby. Even the former Sandy Wexler wouldn’t dare to offend them.
The moment the old man made a move, Logan assessed his capabilities, and he was nothing more than an ordinary Strong Dominator. In the past, Logan would have been apprehensive, but now, he had encountered many Half-step Saint Seats and Quasi-Saint Seats.
With a punch of equal force, the old man rapidly retreated seven or eight steps, his face turning grave as he sank into disbelief. Just one round and he could feel the young man’s superior strength. He couldn’t compete if the skirmish continued.
After taking a deep breath, he quickly reported to Lila Summer on the side, “Young Master, don’t provoke this man lightly. His strength is slightly better than mine. He must also come from a major force. Given his youth, I suggest we temporarily retreat?”
Upon hearing this, Lila Summer became anxious. There were thousands of people gathered around them at the market. If he were to leave in such a disgraceful manner, wouldn’t that be utterly embarrassing? Moreover, the two had only exchanged a single punch. On what basis did the old man give Logan such high praise?
“You are my Daoist protector, and you must follow my orders.” Lila Summer commanded in a righteous tone. If the old man were unable to compete, couldn’t he just go back to the sect and call for reinforcements? He didn’t believe that Logan alone could deal with the entire Supreme Sect.
The old man sighed, explaining, “I am not afraid of Logan because of his strength, but because his strength suggests the power behind him. Even the strongest of our young generation in the Supreme Sect is only a Throne holder. But this person can already be compared to a Dominator.”
This suggested that the force behind Logan must also be terrifying, for him to be endowed with such power. Otherwise, a usual cultivator with no sect or clan affiliation could only hope to reach the rank of an ordinary Throne holder in his lifetime.
Lila Summer was not too foolish either. He quickly understood this point. Only it was unacceptable for him to bow his head to Logan at this moment. Having grown accustomed to his pride from a young age, regardless of who his opponent was, he would always be able to suppress them by force.
“Perhaps it’s just your misconception. If Logan truly came from a prestigious background, why would his companion only be a Throne holder?” Lila Summer suddenly focused on Bart Cloud who was standing next to Logan. If he were truly the scion of a major force, his Daoist protector would at least be a Dominator.
