“What’s wrong?” Seeing Gloy Jefferson sitting there motionless as if his butt were glued to the floor, Sean raised an eyebrow and asked, “The distinguished head of the Jefferson family, already at such an age, surely can’t be unable to take a loss. In front of Mr. Hastiff and so many disciples from the academy, are you going to renege and refuse to admit defeat?”

One sentence!

It struck right at the heart of Gloy Jefferson!

To be honest!

Gloy Jefferson never dreamt that it would end like this. Tommy’s score of ninety-three meters not only ranked third on the Hero Monument of the Plainwater Town Branch, shining brightly for a time, but also made him a rare genius for the Jefferson family. Just over forty years old, he had already advanced to the Complete Stage, becoming a commander in the North Kingdom’s army, with limitless potential. He had always been seen as the hope of the entire Jefferson family!

Moreover!

The reason why the Jefferson family was able to forge a relationship with the capital’s Harris family, and why Betty Jefferson was able to become engaged to Patric Harris, was also because of Tommy’s enormous potential, which gained recognition and attention from the Harris family!

However!

Such a dazzling achievement was easily surpassed by Sean. In comparison, all of Gloy Jefferson’s previous pride and confidence had become a colossal joke!

Sean was overbearing, making it impossible for Gloy Jefferson to advance or retreat!

Admit defeat?

Or act obstinately?

No matter what Gloy Jefferson chose, whether to kowtow in apology or to refuse to admit defeat, with so many academy disciples present, what had happened today would certainly spread. The Jefferson family would likely lose its reputation and standing! It might even affect the alliance between the Jefferson family and the Harris family in the capital!

“Mr. Great!”

Hastiff cleared his throat, feeling somewhat awkward as he took on the role of peacemaker, and advised, “Forgive and forget, why be so calculating? Heh heh… Mr. Jefferson is, after all, from the Plainwater Town Branch, with a noble status, representing the face of the entire Jefferson family!”

“In my opinion, why not…”

“Let the younger generations of the Jefferson family stand in for Mr. Jefferson, fulfill the previous promises, and kowtow in apology to you, as a show of sincerity!”

“What does Mr. Great think?”

Evidently!

The interests between large families were extremely complexly intertwined, and Hastiff also didn’t want Gloy Jefferson to suffer such humiliation in the Plainwater Town Branch under his control. Speaking up for Gloy Jefferson was a considerable favor, and he would naturally receive corresponding returns in the future!

“Is that so?”

Sean glanced at Hastiff, waved his hand indifferently, and snorted, “My cultivation is lowly. If Mr. Jefferson is determined to act obstinately, I indeed have no way to deal with him!”

“So!”

“In consideration of Mr. Hastiff’s face, just let it be. If they want to kowtow, let them. If they don’t, forget it!”

Having said that!

Sean paid no more attention to Gloy Jefferson and continued walking forward. Throughout, he never placed the Jefferson family in his sight. Naturally, for the sake of a momentary satisfaction, he wouldn’t disrespect Hastiff. In any case, his visit to the capital required Hastiff’s support and assistance!

“Thank you for your magnanimity, Mr. Great!”

Hastiff secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Before speaking up for Gloy Jefferson, he had truly feared that Sean would be as confrontational as before, leaving him no room to maneuver. Sean’s prompt agreement was somewhat unexpected to him!

Therefore!

He signaled to Gloy Jefferson with his eyes. Gloy Jefferson immediately understood, looking towards the Jefferson family practitioners who had been sent flying by the formation. Suddenly, those practitioners of the Jefferson family had a change of heart!

Darn it!

If you don’t want to kowtow, let us kowtow for you?

Who does he think he is!

But there was no choice. Gloy Jefferson was the head of the Jefferson family. He had to lower his head while under someone else’s roof! After much hesitation, those practitioners of the Jefferson family gritted their teeth and, with determined resolve, walked toward Sean. Accompanied by a series of thudding sounds, they knelt at the edge of the formation, lowering their proud heads deeply in reverence to Sean!

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Clatter…

The sounds of over a dozen Jefferson family practitioners kowtowing and the grinding of the stone lions mingled together, exceptionally jarring. This scene was awe-inspiring, leaving the onlooking academy disciples dumbfounded!

“Don’t stop!”

“Continue!”

“Keep kowtowing, kowtow until your heads are broken and bleeding!”

Sean’s pace slowed down more and more, to the point that the Jefferson family practitioners were kowtowing more and more. In the next ten minutes, Sean only took two steps forward-ninety-five meters! Ninety-six meters! He was just one meter away from equaling the previous record of ninety-seven meters set by Romanov. Sean stopped at the ninety-six meter mark, smiling, “See, I told you, as long as your kowtows are loud, it improves my mood, and I can walk a few more meters, even break the record on the Hero Monument!”

At this moment!

The Jefferson family practitioners had already kowtowed over a hundred times, with blood stains appearing on their foreheads, truly broken and bleeding. Upon hearing Sean’s words, they all raised their heads, instinctively looking at Gloy Jefferson!

Would they continue?

They would only follow Gloy Jefferson’s command!

Gloy Jefferson stood frozen in place, as if petrified. His expression wasn’t just one of surprise and anger; it was more solemn, indescribably so. His heart was fiercely trembling, and in his mind, it seemed as if a huge wave had surged. Ninety-six meters!

Moreover!

Even a fool could tell that this result wasn’t Sean’s limit. If he kept going, there was a good chance he could surpass Romanov’s ninety-seven meters, smashing the record set by the hero monument!

What kind of concept is this?

My goodness, this isn’t just a competition of talent between Sean and Tommy anymore. Thinking about Romanov’s experience over the years, it’s not hard to predict that if Sean’s terrifying performance in the hundred-meter bamboo forest were to be reported to the Capital General Institute, or heard by the North Kingdom’s leader Albert Sitwell, or even heard by the Jade Lord Steer, what kind of outcome would it be?

Would he become a disciple of the emperor? Join the Hall of Jade? Smoothly advance into the ranks of bright energy? Anything Romanov can do, it’s highly likely that Sean can do as well!

Even better than Romanov!

In the face of such an incomparable figure like Sean, would it be wise to continue opposing him? Should one still seek the chance to kill him to avenge Betty Jefferson? If the attempt fails, with Sean’s future rise, it would be an absolute catastrophe for the Jefferson family! Conversely… even if successfully killing Sean, if Albert Sitwell and Lord Steer find out and place blame, it would also doom the entire Jefferson family clan!!!

So!

Sean’s displayed talent is so strong that, in addition to shocking Gloy Jefferson, it made his mind spin rapidly, calculating, and suddenly he felt uneasy about seeking revenge!

But if he doesn’t kill…

He would have to completely abandon his pride and dignity, make every effort to befriend Sean, and minimize the conflict between the Jefferson family and Sean, seeking forgiveness from Sean, and seizing the opportunity to latch onto the increasingly influential figure!!!

Thus!

“Kneel!”

“Continue kneeling!”

“All of you, pull yourselves together, kneel hard until Mr. Great is satisfied, until Mr. Great breaks Romanov’s record!!!”

As the helmsman of the Jefferson family, Gloy Jefferson, like Hastiff, was a shrewd old fox, most skilled at weighing pros and cons, seeking benefit and avoiding harm. Therefore, he gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and quickly made a decision in his heart!

Saying that!

Gloy Jefferson, paying no attention to his own injuries, suddenly stood up and, before the Jefferson family practitioners could react, he swiftly knelt in front of everyone, then fiercely knocked his head towards Sean within the formation!

“Mr. Great!”

As he knocked, he loudly shouted, “Previously, it was I, Gloy Jefferson, who had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai, offended Mr. Great!”

“Now!”

“I, Gloy Jefferson, personally lead the younger generation of the Jefferson family, sincerely kowtowing to Mr. Great to apologize, hoping to obtain Mr. Great’s forgiveness. As long as Mr. Great doesn’t hold a grudge, I, Gloy Jefferson, will be as obedient as a dog, and my conditions are at your disposal!!!”

Bang!© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Gloy Jefferson’s knock was truly resounding, and while bowing, he secretly infused a hint of dark energy, so that when he knocked his head, the floor on the edge of the formation was instantly shattered. The stone floor, with his forehead at the center, cracked like a spider’s web!

Regarding the future and fate of the Jefferson family clan, since there was a need to change attitudes and to surrender, genuine sincerity had to be shown!

What dignity?

Face?

None of it, none at all!!!

Crackling!

Almost as soon as Gloy Jefferson’s words landed, Sean reached the ninety-seven-meter mark, and the stone lions on both sides slowly turned towards Sean!

Ninety-seven meters!

Equaling the previous highest record on the hero monument at the Plainwater Town branch set by Romanov!!!

“Oh?”

Sean’s expression, however, remained as calm as water. It seemed that the result of ninety-seven meters wasn’t enough to make him proud. He turned to the kneeling Gloy Jefferson at the edge of the formation and asked, “What’s this? Mr. Jefferson, don’t you plan to avenge Miss Jefferson’s grievance?”

That was a grievance, concerning a woman’s innocence and reputation!

At this, Gloy Jefferson lifted his head, met Sean’s eyes, and said in a deep voice, “Betty is naturally spoiled and indulged by me. Mr. Great, with exceptional talent and extraordinary abilities, is a once-in-a-century unparalleled hero. If she can receive guidance from Mr. Great, it would be her honor, her blessing earned over eight lifetimes, and also the blessing of our entire Jefferson family’s ancestors!”

“So!”

“Don’t just talk about a few pokes to her chest. If Mr. Great is willing, letting her follow by your side, serving you, being a slave or a maid, I would be nothing butgrateful, endlessly grateful!!!”

Gloy Jefferson’s words were resounding, as if thunder, spreading throughout the entire bamboo forest, reaching every disciple present, including Sean and Hastiff, leaving everyone utterly shocked and dumbfounded!

Good grief!

Is this the legendary betrayal for personal gain? To betray even one’s own granddaughter, and to do so in such a refreshing and extraordinary manner, is truly eye-opening and awe-inspiring!!!
