Chapter 2975: Chapter 2975: Just Watching Like That!
If he loses his cultivation level and becomes a useless person, then how can the Hong Family flourish? Should they expect him to marry a wife, have a son, and then succeed as the Hong Family Head?
Although that is also possible, his cultivation level, no matter how poor, cannot be abolished!
"Brother Qian, don’t joke. I’m not like those from the Le Family who like to trespass into others’ homes."
But speaking of it, the Le Family really needs a lesson. They’ve clearly offended the first and second major clans, yet they are still being arrogant outside. Without considering whether they can afford to provoke the owners of the household, they dare to act recklessly.
No wonder the girls of the Le Family offend people. With their family’s conduct, who wouldn’t they offend?
...
"What did you say? Say it again!"
The Head of Le Family grabbed Steward Zhao by the collar and glared at him viciously.
"Family, Family Head, it’s true."
Steward Zhao swallowed hard, somewhat afraid of the Family Head’s current demeanor.
But as the steward of the Le Family, he couldn’t not answer the Family Head’s questioning, so he had to respond cautiously.
"The person who bought that piece of land was indeed with the Young City Lord of the City Lord Residence, and Hong Tianxu. I saw them myself coming out of that suddenly appearing courtyard, chatting and laughing together."
Of course, that last part about chatting and laughing was something he added himself because, as they came out, he was so dizzy from the fall that he didn’t see anything clearly.
"Damn it, they must have done it on purpose!"
Upon hearing Steward Zhao’s words, the Head of Le Family was so angry that his eyes turned red.
Now that the Le Family was being suppressed by the two major clans, who wasn’t aware of it? The City Lord Residence must have received the news.
Ever since he put out the news of selling the land near the City Lord Residence, many came to inquire, but none could afford the price or could join him to counter the two major clans.
So that piece of land had never been sold.
His ideal candidate, naturally, was the City Lord Residence. If the City Lord Residence could step forward to buy that piece of land, it would mean they were involving themselves in the conflicts between the Le Family and the other two major clans.
Even if the two major clans wanted to deal with the Le Family, they would have to consider whether the City Lord Residence approved.
But, the ideal is beautiful; the reality is that not even one representative from the City Lord Residence came, as if they knew nothing about the land or the Le Family’s conflict with the two major clans.
"City Lord Bai obviously could... obviously could intervene, yet just watches!"
He was nearly driven mad with anger. If the couple buying that piece of land had someone from the City Lord Residence to step forward, even if it was just a steward accompanying them, he could have made an issue out of it.
"Does the City Lord think the growing feud among clans benefits him? Something that could be handled with a raise of his hand, yet he chooses to do nothing, that City Lord is completely useless!"
"Family Head, please lower your voice."
Steward Zhao’s face turned pale as he listened to the Family Head’s words.
If these words were heard outside and reached City Lord Bai’s ears, the Le Family would be destroyed even faster, without needing the two major clans to act.
Although he understood what the Family Head was angry about, they couldn’t force City Lord Bai to do what he didn’t want to do, could they?
