Chapter 202
“He is so powerful!”
Egbert knelt on one knee, his eyes filled with horror.
He recalled the moment when his fist. collided with Leonard’s, and it was like hitting an iron hammer.
The force of the collision was so powerful that it cracked his bones.
Leonard had crushed him completely in terms of raw strength.
“Why is he so strong at such a young age? How did he do it?”
Egbert was so defeated he started to doubt life at this moment.
He had been cultivating for decades, yet a young man in his twenties defeated him. This difference was too massive.
Leonard looked at Egbert indifferently, who was kneeling there, and said, “My teacher founded the Galen Group. You, the Elders, have no right to be in charge.”
Egbert lowered his head, looking depressed and afraid to speak.
Benjamin, who was on the side, let out a
long sigh.
“No wonder Lord Clarkson chose him as his successor. Compared with him, Max and the likes are nothing.”
The other regional leader and hall leader were also appalled.
“Is this young man who looks to be only in his twenties a Later Level Grand Master?” They wondered.
Rex, who was standing behind Leonard, had a look of pride on his face.
Looking at Benjamin and everyone present, he said, “Mr. Clarkson has hardly cared about things in the Galen Group these years, but that doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want.
“Now that Mr. Santos has been chosen as the heir by Mr. Clarkson, he will soon inherit the position of the Lord. I advise you to think carefully about which side you want to be on.
“Although Elder Perez and others have rapidly improved in strength over the years and have gained great power, the Galen Group belongs to Mr. Clarkson after all. No matter how strong a fish is among its species, do you think it can defeat the fisherman?”
Rex’s status in the Galen Group was not very high, but he was Ibrahim’s confidant.
At this moment, he said these words. righteously because he felt very sad for these people. To him, they were acting foolishly.
The Galen Group was just one of Ibrahim’s countless forces. Yet, these people thought they could turn Ibrahim into a mere figurehead just because Ibrahim did not care about the affairs in the Galen Group. This was nothing but an idiotic idea.
Hearing Rex’s words, everyone present had complicated expressions.
Some people were deeply affected by it. After all, it was Ibrahim who led many Elders to found the Galen Group.
However, there were also people who did not take it seriously at all. They felt that Ibrahim was old now and that he only did not get involved in the Galen Group’s affairs because he was no longer capable of
doing so. On the other hand, Brandon, Keith, Cedric, and the other Elders had become drastically stronger over the years. Thus, they felt the Elders might already be much stronger than Ibrahim.
And the expressions of these people were all caught in Leonard clearly caught the
expression of these people, and he could
not help but slightly shake his head. “These stubborn people really deserve to die!” He thought.
“Where’s my yard? I’m going to rest,” Leonard said.
As the young Lord of the Galen Group, he naturally had his own courtyard.
As for the other two elders who did not come, Leonard did not intend to continue to hold them accountable.
He was about to inherit the position of the Lord of the Galen Group soon. Since he had no idea how many people opposed that, he planned to deal with them all at once by then.
“Mr. Santos, please follow me.”
Rex led the way.
They walked out of the hall and came to a luxurious villa.
As soon as Leonard walked into the villa, a voice came from outside.
“I heard that you have returned to the headquarters, so I specially came to make a visit, Mr. Santos.”
Noam appeared outside the villa.
He was not at the headquarters earlier. As soon as he returned, he asked to see
Leonard.
Currently, he was the only one among the nine Elders who sided with Leonard. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
“Come in.”
After Leonard asked Noam to take a seat, Rex served coffee to the two of them.
“Mr. Santos, now that you have come back to inherit the position of the Lord, the Elders may not be willing to let you take power.
“But don’t worry. I will stand loyally on your side and become your sword. Anyone who dares to go against you shall be my enemy.”
Noam expressed his loyalty to Leonard.
On the other side, Benjamin, who had just returned to his residence, frowned as he listened to the report from his
subordinates.
“Noam actually went to see Leonard as soon as he came back. It seems that he plans to take sides with Leonard.
“Although Leonard showed great strength today, he is still too young after all. There’s no way he’s as powerful as Brandon and Keith.
“Yet, Noam took sides without hesitation. Does he really believe that Leonard is capable of suppressing everyone else and sitting firmly in the position of the Lord?”
At the same time, Cedric, Greyson, and Egbert also received the news.
Noam’s action made them all suspicious. They even began to wonder whether it was right to go against Leonard.
After Noam left, Leonard originally planned to take a rest.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Noam left, someone else came to visit him.
A young man entered the door and handed an invitation letter to Leonard.
“The Galen Group’s person in charge of Imperial City, Stuart Mann, will be holding a banquet in Azure Tower. He respectfully invites you, Mr. Santos, to attend the banquet.”
After the young man handed over the invitation letter, he turned around and left.
Leonard looked at the contents of the invitation letter, then looked at Rex next to him in confusion.
“What do you think?”
Rex hesitated for a moment and said, “Mr. Santos, you have displayed your strength in the hall today and defeated Egbert. Now, the situation in the headquarters has changed. Stuart must have wanted to take the opportunity to test your strength or even join your side.”
Leonard nodded to express that he understood.
After all, with the strength he showed today, he had already surpassed all the
competitors.
“What do you know about Stuart?”
Leonard asked.
Rex replied, “Stuart is the Galen Group’s person in charge of Imperial City. The last time we fought the Acosta family, he was the one in the lead. He has always remained neutral in the Galen Group.”
“I see. Then I wouldn’t mind going to see him.”
Leonard nodded.
