“Yes, the Golden Family’s actions are indeed shameless.”
“According to the rules, once on the Life and Death Platform, one must accept the consequences. Even if Anton was killed, it was his own doing.”
“It seems the Golden Family can’t accept defeat.”
Wade’s words garnered support and agreement from many Cultivators.
Hearing the discussions among the Cultivators, the faces of the Golden Family members turned extremely grim.
Jameson took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his anger, and loudly said to Wade, “Wade, this little brat crippled my son today. The Golden Family will kill him! If your Watts family steps aside now, I promise that our two families will coexist peacefully for the next ten years.”
“If your Watts family protects him, today will be the day the Golden and Watts families go to war! You know very well the strength of the Golden Family. By then, your Watts family will be drenched in blood!”
After hearing Jameson’s words, Wade’s expression remained unchanged and fearless. “Jameson, Leo fought for the Watts family and has done us many favors. If we stand by and do nothing now, we would be ungrateful and have no face to stand in Zratol!”
“If you want war, then let it be war! Even if the Watts family is drenched in blood, we will not let you harm Leo in the slightest!”
Wade’s words were indeed impactful. In comparison, the image of the Watts family and the Golden Family in everyone’s mind became immediately clear.
“The Watts family is quite responsible, not bad!”
“In contrast, the Golden Family is really… hard to describe.”
“It seems we should avoid buying the Golden Family’s pills in the future. If their character is poor, their pills probably aren’t much better!”
The eyes of the masses are sharp, and everyone has a scale in their hearts.
The discussions among the Cultivators made the faces of the Golden Family elders burn with shame.
After today, the reputation of the Golden Family would surely suffer a significant negative impact, which would affect their business.
However, today’s events were indeed unreasonable on the part of the Golden Family.
Jameson was already blinded by anger and naturally did not care about the Cultivators’ discussions.
Anton was the hope of the Golden Family, cultivated by Jameson at great cost. How could he be crippled in vain!
“Wade, do you think you have the strength to stop me?” Jameson’s powerful Spirit Saint aura pressed down on Wade.
In Jameson’s understanding, Wade had not yet broken through to Spirit Saint. Therefore, in Jameson’s view, defeating Wade was an easy task.
Moments later, to Jameson’s surprise, under his powerful aura pressure, Wade not only remained unfazed but also looked at him with a mocking expression.
“Jameson, do you still think my cultivation is at Spirit King level?” Wade sneered.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wade’s aura erupted, rebounding Jameson’s pressure back at him.
“You… you broke through to Spirit Saint!?” Jameson’s pupils contracted sharply.
“Yes, I luckily broke through to Spirit Saint two days ago.” Seeing Jameson’s astonished expression brought Wade great satisfaction.
Among Zratol’s three major families, Golden Family head Jameson and Kaufman family head Ignacio had both broken through to Spirit Saint a year ago.
Only Wade had not broken through yet.
Until two days ago, with the help of an Ascension Pill, Wade also stepped into Spirit Saint.
Wade’s breakthrough slightly intimidated Jameson but did not lessen the killing intent on Jameson’s face.
“Hmph, you just broke through to lower-stage Spirit Saint. Do you think you are my match?” Jameson snorted coldly.
“I said before, as long as the Watts family is here, no one will harm Leo in the slightest.” Wade’s face was stern and his tone brooked no argument.
On the Kaufman family side.
Dressed in a dark blue robe with a seemingly gentle face, Kaufman family head Ignacio’s eyes gleamed as he anticipated a battle between the two families.
If the Golden and Watts families fought, even if one side won, it would be a pyrrhic victory with greatly diminished strength.
At that time, the Kaufman family could seize the opportunity to become Zratol’s number one family.
With this thought in mind, Ignacio glanced at Alejandro Gray on the other side.
Alejandro Gray stood on the main stage, his eyes fixed on the two families above the Life and Death Platform as if contemplating something.
Ignacio thought to himself, “I wonder what choice Alejandro Gray will make.”
Currently, Zratol’s structure consisted of one marquisate and three major families.
A deadly fight between the Golden and Watts families would not harm Marquis Manor. When their strength weakened, it could even strengthen Marquis Manor’s control over Zratol.
Of course, if Alejandro Gray did nothing in the face of the Golden Family breaking the rules, it would inevitably lower Marquis Manor’s prestige.
After all, the rules of the Life and Death Platform were set by Marquis Manor.
At this moment, two more astonishing auras erupted.
Golden Family elder Izaiah and Watts family elder Ramon Watts confronted each other with powerful auras.
Subsequently, other members of both families also mobilized their spiritual power, releasing strong auras.
The battle between the Golden and Watts families was about to erupt.
“Are they really going to fight?”
“We should stay away to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.”
The Cultivators in the square were both excited and worried.
After all, a battle between Spirit Saints would unleash destructive power that was no joke.
“Wade, since your Watts family wants to protect him, let me test your newly acquired Spirit Saint strength!” A fierce look flashed in Jameson’s eyes as a crimson flame erupted from his body, transforming into a giant flame serpent.
Wade snorted coldly, his eyes icy as he formed hand seals. An ice-sculpted snow lion appeared above his head.
“Stop!” Just as the battle was about to erupt, a stern shout echoed through the area.
Immediately after, a figure dressed in a purple-gold robe flashed and stood between Jameson and Wade.
This person was none other than Marquis Gray Alejandro Gray.
“What are you two family heads trying to do?” Alejandro Gray asked coldly, though he knew very well what was happening.
Alejandro Gray’s intervention made Jameson’s face turn grim.
“Lord Marquis, this is a matter between the Golden Family and the Watts family. I hope Lord Marquis will not interfere!” Jameson bowed slightly to Alejandro Gray and said in a deep voice.
Alejandro Gray was not only Zratol’s leader but also had reached mid-stage Spirit Saint. Even with an ancestor overseeing things, Jameson did not dare offend Alejandro Gray too much.
“This matter ends here. You all know the rules of the Life and Death Platform.” Alejandro Gray looked at Jameson with a stern voice.
The rules of the Life and Death Platform were set by Alejandro Gray. If someone broke them, it would challenge his authority. This was Alejandro Gray’s reason for intervening.
