Chapter 479: Chapter 295 Admit Defeat_1
“Have you ever considered why I was able to walk away unscathed from the Westman Family? The Westman Family houses more than one Dominator Realm, and they greatly value their reputation. I can tell you, the Westman Family paid a price of six hundred thousand Spirit Stones.”
Logan smiled thinly, addressing Ilima Nango. Upon hearing this, Ilima Nango furrowed his brow, truly taken aback by this statement. When they had left the Westman Family previously, he had thought they had merely fled.
Yet, according to Logan’s words, it wasn’t an escape but forcing the Westman Family to yield. They even gave him six hundred thousand Spirit Stones. This seemed extraordinarily baffling, as it hadn’t occurred in decades within the city. The Westman Family had three Dominator Realms stationed, and even the City Lord of the Half-step Saint Seat had to show them respect.
Could Logan, with only three people, shake the entire Westman Family? Ilima Nango didn’t believe that the three Dominator Realms could stand idly by unless Logan’s strength had surpassed the Dominator Realm, only then would they concede due to their inability to win.
Ilima Nango took a deep breath and shook his head: “Stop playing tricks. It’s clear that you’re just bluffing. You’ve a talent for spinning tales, but sadly they are too incredible for anyone to believe. Do you think the Westman Family is some mediocre sect? Do you even understand what being a Strong Dominator means?”
“Young Master, he is very strong.” The Daoist standing aside, his gaze deeply fixed on Logan, could sense a hint of killing intent from him. This killing intent sent chills down his spine, something he had never experienced from previous opponents. He understood that Logan was not a superficial Throne holder; he must have many approaches up his sleeve.
Moreover, every single word of Logan’s was truthful; he was not lying. Indeed, he not only left the Westman Family unharmed but also made them admit their errors. This was something that even the City Lord couldn’t achieve in the entire city. He had the instinct that the Young Master had provoked a person he shouldn’t have and it might even implicate the City Lord eventually.
Originally, Ilima Nango was not too concerned. But after hearing the Daoist’s words, he was taken aback. He was very clear about the Daoist’s strength. Even among the Strong Dominators, he was a standout. Now that he thought of Logan as unpredictable, it caught him off guard.
But no matter how he thought about it, Ilima Nango still failed to see Logan as a strong entity. He thought perhaps the Daoist had merely sensed it wrongly. Therefore, he ordered the Daoist to attack Logan. Logan’s real strength would be revealed in the fight, he was ready to do battle with the Strong Dominator.
The old man sighed deeply. Once the fight started, the situation would be irreversible. But he was helpless; the Young Master had already given the command. He readied himself to perform his Divine Skills and attack even though he might not be able to win. The attack launched by a Dominator Realm was naturally incredibly sharp. Logan was momentarily taken off guard.
Fortunately, Logan promptly adjusted and called forth his divine weapon to counterattack. After dozens of rounds where both sides traded attacks, it became clear to Ilima Nango. A youngster at his age would typically be at the Transcendent Tier. Even if he was a genius, he wouldn’t go beyond a Half-step Saint Seat.
Those, like Logan, who can fight on equal footing with a Dominator are indeed hard to find in this world. It’s infuriating to compare oneself with others. However, fighting on equal footing with a Dominator would not necessarily make the Westman Family admit defeat. After all, the Westman Family still held the numerical advantage in the Dominator Realm. Logan was still far from enough.
At this point, Bart Cloud stepped forward: “As the City Lord’s son, are you content to always behave recklessly? Aren’t you afraid that the fair and strict image that your father has built over his lifetime will be destroyed by your hands? The reinforcement you brought is indeed strong, but Logan has many more tricks up his sleeve.”
“Hmph, courting death.” Ilima Nango gritted his teeth. The words of Bart Cloud ignited his pride. He had always been seen as a waste, his cultivation mundane, but his father was a majestic Half-step Saint Seat. He’d suffered much mockery, and this was why he bullied others to instill fear in their hearts.
Logan didn’t want to drag this out either, but to defeat a Dominator Realm, a full day’s time obviously was not enough. His strongest ability was to arrange arrays, but right now there wasn’t even a slight chance to arrange any. For a moment, he was at his wit’s end. Indeed, Ilima Nango and his men had caught him off guard.
However, an idea suddenly flashed across his mind. He indeed didn’t have time to arrange arrays, but he had six hundred thousand Spirit Stones on hand. He could completely use them to set up a temporary Divine Skill. Ten thousand Spirit Stones to create a Divine Skill might be too powerful for a Dominator Realm to withstand.
Logan drew a group of ten thousand Spirit Stones and in an instant integrated it into his Divine Skill. His technique seemed to dominate as though it had been multiplied a hundred times over. As it neared the Daoist, it exploded like a Rule. No matter how many defences the Daoist deployed, he was still heavily injured by this attack.
And this was only the beginning. After merely three rounds, Logan spent thirty-thousand Spirit Stones. The Daoist had already suffered from four to five wounds on his body. Under these injuries, his strength was significantly reduced, having depleted to just six-tenths of his previous strength. His current condition was truly wretched.
Upon seeing this, Ilima Nango couldn’t bear it and immediately called a halt: “Stop, I admit defeat, is that not enough? Don’t continue, let’s leave it at this point. I guarantee I will never seek trouble in the future. My father is the Lord of this city, if you kill the Daoist, you will have to bear the consequences.”
The Daoist, as his friend and mentor, naturally didn’t want to see him getting hurt. He simply wanted the Daoist to teach Logan a lesson. He never expected things to escalate to this stage. It was far beyond his anticipation. If the Daoist really died at Logan’s hands, he would be ridden with guilt his entire life.
The moment these words were spoken, the Daoist was also shocked. Throughout his life, Ilima Nango had always been stubborn. Including facing the City Lord, he had never bowed his head to anyone. Today he actually conceded willingly to Logan. All of this was because of him. His heart was filled with mixed emotions.
With an amused smile, Logan shook his head: “You are the one who picked this fight. Do you think you can simply walk away when you can’t win? Do you really think that I, Logan, am easy to bully? Without an explanation, none of you are leaving. Previously, the Westman Family gave six hundred thousand Spirit Stones, I believe you, Ilima Nango, definitely can afford more.”
“I don’t have six hundred thousand Spirit Stones. Even if it’s ten thousand Spirit Stones, it’s the same. If you stop now, consider it a favour I owe you. No matter what happens in the city in the future, Ilima Nango vows to assist you unequivocally. I am, after all, the City Lord’s son. There will certainly be times when I am useful.”
Ilia Nango clenched his fists, deeply regretting his actions. Knowing full well that Logan and his companions had left the Westman Family safe and sound, their abilities must be extraordinary. Why did he unnecessarily provoke them? What if Logan was uncompromising and the Daoist really died in front of him?
But the Daoist was very proud. He faced Ilima Nango and said: “The battle with Logan resulted in an uncertain outcome. After all, I am a Strong Dominator. Even if the fight goes on for a year and a half, it will be fine. The Young Master need not worry so much.”
