The Legendary Man

Chapter 1268

The Legendary Man Chapter 1268-As Joshua was recounting these matters, Jonathan and the others allfelt an immense heaviness in their hearts.

The White family and the Whitley family, these two families that spanned ‘two worlds’, theircircumstances were surprisingly similar.

All were in their prime, and all were betrayed by other families.

However, the details in Joshua’s account were somewhat vague. There were many specifics that wereglossed over, and it was unclear whether Joshua did this intentionally or not.

“Joshua, I didn’t quite catch what you said.”

Hayden scratched his head.

“So what you’re saying is, the White family split into two groups. One group escaped and is now what weknow as the Whitley family. As for the second passerby, he was entangled with the rebel forces of thefour vassal families and had completely shut down the chaos portal linking the inner and outer of thesmall world.”

“What exactly is this vassal family?”

No sooner had Hayden’s words fallen than Neil, who was leisurely lying on a rocking chair in thedistance, began to speak.

“The Whites the kings, and vassal family serves them. Two thousand years ago, all four vassal familieswere subordinates to the White family.”

“They came into this small world with the White family. You can understand their roles as… slaves!”

The moment the word “slave” was spoken, the gazes of Jonathan and the others instantly turned towardthe one who asked the question, Hayden.

Those four vassal families, and the Zink family, The Untouchables, did indeed bear a strikingresemblance to each other.

Not only in terms of positioning but also in what Hayden and his team were doing right now, they wereextremely similar.

Hayden resisted the Osborne family, voicing various grievances. Jonathan and everyone elseunanimously agreed that the Zink family’s resistance was justified and that they should indeed stand upagainst them.

The four families of Yannopolis were resisting the White family, namely the Whitley family. Because ofJoshua, everyone subconsciously believed that the four families deserved to die and that the Whitleyfamily was the rightful lineage.

Even though it was the same situation, two completely contradictory results were obtained due toeveryone’s different statuses.

Sometimes, that was just how things were in this world. It’ was not about right or wrong. It was simply amatter of differing perspectives.

“Why the hell are you all staring at me? It’s not like I’m against your White family or something.”

Seeing Hayden’s face turn red with fury, Jonathan could only helplessly shake his head.

“Joshua, according to what you’ve said, the chaos portal that connects the small world to the outsideworld should appear once every fifty years. Why did it take two thousand years to reappear?”

Joshua shook his head slightly at the news.

“I’m not sure. All I know is that Great-grandpa once said that the Whitley family members visit theDelisgar Ridge every fifty years to inspect the chaos portal. There was even a time when the Whitleyfamily sent people to Doveston to lie low for ten years in advance and then waited another ten yearsafter the time the chaos portal was supposed to open. Even after a full twenty years, the chaos portalhas yet to open. No one knows what happened in the small world, but one thing we can be sure of is thatthe White family, which was in the small world, definitely no longer exists. As for the opening of thischaos portal, I also don’t know the reason. I only found out when I received the signal that the chaosportal had opened a year ago.”

As Joshua spoke, he subconsciously glanced at the ring in his hand.

At this moment, Jonathan also looked toward the Heaven Sword in his hand.

Before entering the small world, Jonathan had already concluded that the weapon in his hand must haveoriginated from the ancestors of the Whitley family.

At this point, it was absolutely certain that these weapons and accessories, shimmering with a greenglow, must have some inexplicable connection with the small world.

Having fallen into the illusionary realm several times, Jonathan had once mobilized the entire intelligencenetwork of Asura’s Office in an attempt to find it.

However, even after searching high and low across the vast expanse of Chanaea, there was not a singleshred of news.

From the looks of it now, the illusionary realm could very well have reflected the small world.

Not far away, Neil saw a few people fall into silence and unexpectedly burst into hearty laughter.

“What’s there to ponder over? The opening of the chaos portal is due to the absence of the most crucialelement in the rule array of the small world, which has started to collapse.”

Neil’s relaxed words immediately drew sidelong glances from several people.

Neil’s personality was very similar to Xavion’s, embodying the type of character that went with the flow inall matters and believed in no taboos.

While Xavion carried an air of nonchalance about him, Neil, on the other hand, exuded an endless senseof languor.

“Who exactly is this guy?”

Jonathan watched as Neil asked Joshua a question.

“This is one of the trump cards left by the White family from years ago, the Grand Commander of SouthOuter City, Neil Yarnell.”

Joshua looked at Neil, introducing him with a smile.

“The history of the Whitley family that I know of, is all passed down orally by our ancestors. He is the trueinheritor of the White family’s past.”

Upon hearing Joshua’s words, Neil repeatedly waved his hands.

“Don’t say it like that. The one who inherited the legacy of our White family’s ancestors is not me, but myforefathers.”

Neil spoke up from his seat, surprisingly setting down his hip flask with a solemn expression on his face.

“Many years ago, my ancestor saved a young master from the White family in the vast wilderness. Thatyoung master later became an important figure in the White family, and my ancestor became the youngmaster’s only friend. However, due to their respective statuses, the two of them, despite beingconnected, rarely met. It was precisely because of this that they were able to evade the scrutiny of the

four families and carry on the legacy left by the ancestors of the White family. From that day forward, webegan to constantly strategize, expanding our influence, waiting for the return of the White family. We’vebeen waiting until now.”

When Neil spoke these words, his gaze was fixed on Joshua.

Meanwhile, Hayden, on the side was extraordinarily excited.

Looking into Neil’s eyes, the hostility from before was nowhere to be found. Instead, they were filled withanticipation.

“So, are all these people you’ve gathered here to help Joshua reclaim Yannopolis? I see you have quitea few people here. Do you have any specific plans?”novelbin

Hayden spoke enthusiastically, but Jonathan, on the side sensed that something was off with theatmosphere.

Looking into Neil’s eyes, Jonathan let out a sigh.

“Neil, you don’t really plan on helping Joshua, do you?”

“Why should I help him?”

With a cold gaze, Neil asked Jonathan.

As soon as these words were spoken, Hayden, who was standing nearby, was slightly taken aback.

Meanwhile, Joshua himself was calmly watching Neil without uttering a word.

Neil scanned the few people in front of him.

“My ancestors and the White family’s ancestors were as close as brothers. In the face of such a greatenmity, we should be willing to risk our lives to help each other, and so did my ancestors. Generationsupon generations have been preparing for the return of the White family. But what does that have to dowith me?”

Neil stood up, looked at the few people, and slowly extended two fingers.

“Two thousand years have etched their mark. Whatever favors or whatever grudges, no longer matter.Do you really think I would care about any sentimentality between our ancestors once it comes to me?”

With a cold laugh, Neil looked at Joshua and said, “Even if I take a step back and strictly follow the teamtraining, who exactly are you asking me to help? Out of the entire White family, you’re the only one whocan’t even enter Outer City. What a disgrace. Tell me, is there hope for victory?”
