Semua Bab No. 1 Supreme Warrior: Bab 1081 - Bab 1090

“We don’t know if the master knows about this, and we dared not ask. We’re afraid of offending others if we ask too many questions.” The old man was one of the branch family masters. He spoke with a frown, and helplessness was written all over his face.It was apparent that they feared the main family members while wanting to get more martial enhancement resources for the branch families.“Who’s in charge of these things?” questioned Fane.“First Elder was in charge when the requirement was fifty percent, but he then had to manage other things, thus Third Elder was placed in charge of the matter.” Lancelot smiled. “Not long after he was tasked with managing the martial enhancement resources, he told us that the upper management decided to raise it to sixty percent, concluded in a meeting. “He said that the main family had developed well and many of their youngsters had breakthroughs. We were asked to be considerate toward the main family and sacrifice a bit more. They also said th

“Then, Young Master Fane, we thank you for your attentiveness to act. In fact, we just need to complain and express ourselves. We don’t need anything else!" explained an old man, carefully so. "The main reason is because there are no other ways. In fact, we have prodigies among the branch families, talented to boot, but we’re lacking resources. Dare we say that the materials we’ve got are downright scarce, and that resulted in a slow progression of their martial level. Alas, all we could do was look on in worry.” Lancelot also nodded. "The same applies to our branch family. Those geniuses are very unconvinced and complain all the time. After all, they can find better treasures and spirited grass if their martial level increases. We could do nothing to help them, only offering words of consolation when they’re doubting.”The white-haired old man also nodded. "That’s true. I promised my granddaughter before I came over this time that I’ll man up to tell members of the Woods main famil

Joan gave a bitter smile. “Why should I hate you?” she said. “I did hate you at the start—I hated how weak you were, and how you couldn’t take care of us!”Here, she heaved a sigh and stood up. “But I no longer hate you. I know that you truly love me, and I can feel your sincerity,” she continued. “I also understand your helplessness. You are in this position after all. And your father and your family would never have approved of us even back then. Besides, as the master of the family, you must always take the Woods family into account!”“Thank you, Joan. Thank you for being so understanding and forgiving!”Nash’s eyes reddened. “Or maybe this is God’s punishment, to make me, the master of the Woods family, die on a bed instead of a battlefield,” he added. “I thought of plenty of ways I could die, but I never thought that I would be poisoned!”Joan turned around and looked at Nash, smiling. “Don’t be so pessimistic. Fane’s very skilled in medicine. I believe that there will be a wa

When he heard this, warmth filled Fane’s heart. “Don’t worry. I’ll help to treat your condition,” he said, smiling. “Now I’m suspecting that it was Lily who administered the poison. She already sent assassins after me in Middle Province. Who’s to say that she won’t do something like this!”“Ah. She sent assassins after you, and the Ninth Patronum—who are in a good relationship with the Third Elder and the others—was waiting to kill you at the entrance. Furthermore, she joined hands with the Third Elder to take some of the martial art resources for themselves by raising the tithe. They’ve made their linkage clear before us!”Fane released a sigh. “I’d be a fool to not believe it even after all this!” he said impatiently.“What should we do now, Father? I think it’ll be difficult. After all, the Third Elder is a powerful chi practitioner. The only one who can probably match him now is the First Elder! That’s why we have no way of weeding them out.“And Lily is no slouch either. More

“Rest earlier, Father. I’m going back first!”Fane nodded his head and left.“Al–alright. My son is truly grown up. And so mature too—much more mature than Lance!”After Fane left, Nash lay on the bed, gratitude written all over his face.The next morning, the members of the branch family who had stayed the night began to head back.Everything seemed normal. However, no one thought that Hudson, who was talking to the two daughters of the Woods family in a pavilion, would actually observe Lancelot heading toward Fane’s place. “Strange. Why is he going to Fane’s place? The rest of the branch family members have already left. Why hasn’t he left? Why has he gone to see Fane instead?”Hudson frowned as he stared at Lancelot’s back, suspicion carved on his expression. He had been thoroughly embarrassed yesterday. He had wanted to kill Fane, but he had not been able to lay even a finger on him before he was eliminated.He had even thought that Fane would be the last contender in
