Deities: Starting From Goblins - Chapter 470 - Chapter 470: 285_1
Chapter 470: 285_1
Shingo Butcher gave a faint smile, but did not expose Logan. He naturally saw that Logan’s strength was above that of the Westman Family, otherwise, given the Westman Family’s vindictive nature, it would be impossible for them to make peace with Logan.
Bart Cloud also laughed and commented from the side: “Butcher, the Westman Family will definitely not let this matter rest. They are likely gathering their forces to retaliate. Aren’t you afraid of being implicated while you’re sitting here having drinks and discussions?”
“Afraid?” Shingo Butcher frowned, speaking seriously: “Originally, I planned to continue my trials after a short break, but now I have a different idea. I plan to stay in this city for ten days to half a month. As for the Westman Family, you all are here to handle them, I’m just a bystander.”
He had a hunch that a storm was brewing in the city. This meant a lot of action and excitement for him. Moreover, he found that Logan and his companion, both in character and nature, were to his liking. He was not afraid to lend a hand when necessary, especially when it concerned the Westman Family, whom he had never feared.
“Brother Butcher, I won’t hide it from you. In order to resolve our issues, the Westman Family offered me two hundred thousand Spirit Stones; otherwise, I would never have given the Westman Family Head any face just now. But since the Westman Family is willing to shell out, it’s a good thing for me to acquire these Spirit Stones so easily.”
Logan gave a light smile and said, “I assume that the Westman Family will be here soon with the two hundred thousand Spirit Stones. Brother, if you don’t mind, I can share ten thousand of those with you. After all, you did single-handedly battle a Perfect King’s Seat before, which was a great help.”
“No need to worry about the Spirit Stones; after all, I only shouted a few times,” Shingo Butcher quickly waved his hand in refusal after hearing this. The Spirit Stones were earned by Logan; how could he shamelessly accept them?
However, he had to admit, the Westman Family was quite generous. He could only earn thirty to forty thousand Spirit Stones in a year at most, meaning it would take him seven or eight years to save up. Logan achieved this amount in a single day, which was indicative of Logan’s strength. Otherwise, how could the Westman Family have parted with such an amount?
Thinking this way, Shingo Butcher looked at Logan with even more admiration, “Brother, since we see eye to eye, let’s consider each other as brothers from now on. I’ve had a distaste for the arrogant and overbearing Westman Family for a while now. If they dare to attack you two, I won’t hesitate to step in and help.”
“We’d better prepare ourselves in advance. The ‘two hundred thousand Spirit Stones’ might not be something the Westman Family Head can approve on his own. This could be just a delaying tactic. After all, the Westman Family has three Dominators in total. Their strength should not be underestimated. If they were to mobilize over a thousand disciples from their family, even a Half-step Saint Seat would find it troublesome.”
The implication was clear. Logan would not find it easy to put the two hundred thousand Spirit Stones into his bag. Unless Logan could subdue the entire Westman Family, maybe then they would truly admit defeat. However, unless it’s a last resort, the Westman Family would not dare to make a grandiose display, since there are many other family clans in the city that have long been dissatisfied with their tyranny and savagery.
Logan wasn’t concerned. His eyes were firm, “If the Westman Family Head is a wise man, he will honestly deliver the two hundred thousand Spirit Stones, putting an end to this matter. If he harbors ulterior motives, don’t blame me for not being polite. If the Westman Family truly intends to kill me, I won’t mind driving them out of the city.”
His statement was filled with a murderous aura. Although he and Bart Cloud were not Dominators, their combat power was not weak, and he also had a formidable array at his disposal. This made dealing with several Dominators a piece of cake. The Half-step Saint Seat Demon Beast had already fallen victim to his array.
“Who is Logan?” At that moment, a man strode into the inn entrance, his face full of arrogance as he shouted. Logan and the others furrowed their brows and looked his way, deducing that this man probably belonged to the Westman Family. After all, they didn’t know anyone in the city apart from the Westman Family, whom they had just offended.
Bart Cloud waved his hand and asked, “The Westman Family?” Upon hearing this, the man approached them. He looked over Logan and his companions, shook his head in confusion, not understanding why the Family Head had ordered him to deliver two hundred thousand Spirit Stones to these seemingly ordinary people.
The man pulled out a ring and stated, “There are 20,000 Spirit Stones in here. The Family Head asked me to deliver this to you. I don’t know what method you used to bewitch the Family Head, but take the Spirit Stones and leave the city soon. Otherwise, when the Westman Family retaliates, you will certainly be annihilated.”
“Twenty thousand?” Logan questioned as he took the ring. He had initially negotiated for two hundred thousand Spirit Stones with the Westman Family Head. In the blink of an eye, that amount had been reduced tenfold. Was the Westman Family Head deliberately seeking a fallout with him? A trace of coldness appeared in Logan’s eyes as he stared at the man intently.
From the side, Bart Cloud was equally infuriated, “Your Family Head is going back on his word. Wasn’t it agreed on to be two hundred thousand Spirit Stones? Who are you trying to get rid of with a meagre twenty thousand Spirit Stones? Do you honestly think we wouldn’t dare retaliate once we leave? Call your Family Head over. I want to confront him in person.”
“Twenty thousand Spirit Stones is not a small amount. Greed ends in disaster; you all dare to confront the Westman Family?” The man’s face showed a trace of contempt. Such a large number like twenty thousand Spirit Stones, these people were actually looking down upon it. Did they really think the Westman Family was completely powerless?
Logan’s face was dark and terrifying. With a slap on the table, he announced, “Very well. The Westman Family has indeed slapped me in the face. I was confident earlier that the Westman Family Head is a smart man, who wouldn’t instigate trouble. It appears that I was too overconfident. So, it will now be a life and death struggle with the entire Westman Family.”
“Go back and tell the Westman Family Head that we will be visiting soon. Tell the entire Westman Family to prepare for a battle. Whether every member of the Westman Family is wiped out, or we die in the hands of the Westman Family all depends on this battle.”
Bart Cloud’s eyes were resolute as he intently watched the man and spoke word for word. This Westman Family really didn’t have the proper bearing of a great power. They had messed around with the two of them from start to finish. This grudge had to be settled. The Beast King and the Heavenly Saint Daoist had both fallen victim to Logan’s cunning, so what made the small Westman Family think they stood a chance?
Shingo Butcher blinked and tried to say something to dissuade them, but then he chuckled, feeling he wasn’t in a position to persuade them. Logan and his companion were not afraid of even the Westman Family Head. He assumed they had some ace up their sleeve. Moreover, the Westman Family was indeed not very virtuous to reduce the amount from two hundred thousand to twenty thousand so abruptly.
“Is it really necessary? The Westman Family has three Dominator-level powerhouses. Can’t you just take these twenty thousand Spirit Stones and leave quietly?” hearing the insinuation in these words, the man panicked, fearing the few would truly visit the Westman Family for a showdown. All he could do was endlessly talk about the strength of the Westman Family, trying to intimidate Logan and his group.
However, this trick didn’t work, and the man could only leave in disappointment, praying inwardly that Logan and the others are only bluffing. After their anger subsided, they would surely choose to tolerate the situation so as not to offend the Westman Family. After all, no one in the city dared to provoke the Westman Family, let alone stir up trouble in their household.
