The Legendary Man Chapter 1338-It was only at this moment that Jonathan finally understood what thereal secret of the Blackwood family had been all along.

Even though the Blackwood family and Asura’s Office had secretly formed an alliance long ago,Jonathan couldn’t understand why the Blackwood family, a respectable family that had establisheditself through cultivation, was committed to democratizing cultivation and spreading it to the masses.

Upon hearing Sirius’ words, Jonathan finally understood. The entire world of cultivation is like a slowlydrying pond. According to the Blackwood family’s theory, the drying up of this pond is now irreversible.One day, the water inside will completely evaporate, leaving only the parched riverbed behind. Andthese cultivators are like fish swimming within. The Blackwood family is determined to be among thefirst to reach the shore. Their aim is to firmly establish their footing before the other families can reactand then do everything within their power to thwart any forces that attempt to follow them ashore. Whileit may not entirely prevent everyone from reaching the shore, one thing is certain. The Blackwoodfamily will undoubtedly seize the initiative in this process.

After connecting all the previous events together, Jonathan sighed and asked, “So, are you willing tosupport Asura’s Office unconditionally, even if it means giving us a large amount of broken spirit stonesand risking the wrath of the other seven families?”

Sirius shook his head slightly. “What you’re saying is both right and wrong. We gave you the brokenspirit stone, certainly hoping to establish a good relationship with Asura’s Office before you even setfoot on shore. After all, in the face of dwindling spiritual energy in the future, the highest Realm ofcultivators will be continuously compressed. In this way, the military powerhouse, Asura’s Office, willtruly become the ruler of Chanaea.”

Upon hearing Sirius’s words, Jonathan couldn’t help but chuckle in satisfaction. “So, it seems likeyou’re quite optimistic about the development of Asura’s Office, huh? When it comes to alliances, no

bond is too tight as long as there are benefits involved. The Blackwood family and Asura’s Office areold friends by now. How about we tighten our alliance? Once we get out of here when the hatredbetween Asura’s Office and the eight respectable families reaches its boiling point, we couldcollaborate once more. What do you say?”

Sirius looked at Jonathan, a rare hint of amusement rising in his gaze. “I know what you’re thinking.You want the Blackwood family to pull the rug out from under the other seven families, don’t you?”

Jonathan quickly nodded in agreement. “What I mean is, if we join forces, we might just stand a chanceto take down the seven respectable families.”

Upon hearing that, Sirius didn’t respond. He simply handed Jonathan a cigarette and lit it for him.“Jonathan, let go of that idea. Once we’re out, in the war between you and the eight respectablefamilies, the Blackwood family can at most step aside. But as for helping you with this matter, wesimply can’t do it.”novelbin

Jonathan furrowed his brows, exhaling a puff of smoke, his eyes filled with confusion as he looked atSirius. “Sirius, you’re really being unreasonable. We’ve faced life and death together several times. Wecan certainly trust each other with our lives. Moreover, the Blackwood family has been helping us, evenproviding us with broken spirit stone. Isn’t all this to help Asura’s Office become stronger quickly? Sinceyou’re fond of Asura’s Office, why not increase your investment? When the time comes and we reallywin, won’t it be even more beneficial for the Blackwood family?”

At this point, Hayden, who was standing nearby, had also chosen the weapon he wanted and steppedforward. “Mr. Goldstein, I’ve made my selection and picked out five magical items.”

With a casual wave of his hand, Jonathan let him go. He wanted to continue discussing cooperationwith Sirius, but he heard Hayden couldn’t help but interject from the side.

“Mr. Goldstein, there’s no need to persuade him anymore. These respectable families are allunprincipled scoundrels. If they don’t see any tangible benefits, they won’t cooperate with you,” Haydensaid.

Sirius looked at Hayden. Jonathan thought he would argue, but to his surprise, Sirius remained silentfor a moment before giving a slight nod.

“Hayden is right,” Sirius said. “We don’t do things that don’t benefit us. Fully supporting Asura’s Officeis simply a pointless endeavor for us.”

Jonathan looked at Sirius, speechless.

“Dude! Just now, you were saying that Asura’s Office is the future,” Jonathan said.

Upon hearing that, Sirius quickly waved his hands. “I never said that Asura’s Office is the future. What Imeant was that the technological warfare model represented by Asura’s Office is the trend of thefuture. You need to understand, the depletion of spiritual energy is not something that can be reversedin a day or two. It requires a long period of evolution. Even with the backing of the Blackwood family, orthe continuous support from cultivators associated with the Blackwood family, this process is bound tobe extremely lengthy.”

As Sirius spoke, he gently waved his hand in front of him. The grass on the ground was neatly cut, andthe scattered blades of grass formed an upward arc in mid-air. “For thousands of years, everything inthis world, at its peak, must eventually decline. This is a truth that Emperor Fehohr comprehendedthousands of years ago. All beings in this world, after their prime, inevitably head toward decline.Flowers, plants, and trees, after their bloom, naturally start to wither. The rise and fall of imperial powerand national strength are just so, and the destiny of our cultivator world will also follow this rule. Justlike the process of aging, ordinary people start to physically decline after the age of thirty. However, thisaging process is incredibly slow, so much so that it’s hard for one to notice it themselves.”

As Sirius spoke, he simultaneously manipulated his spiritual energy to extend the arc formed by thegreen grass, gently growing it downward. “At that point, even if there is a decline, it’s not easilynoticeable to everyone due to the limited speed. However, if this person were to fall seriously ill orsuffer a significant misfortune, their physical condition would rapidly deteriorate. This is an unalterablefact. And we, the Blackwood family, are committed to continuously propelling the realm of cultivators inChanaea, swiftly toward this turning point. Only in this way can we ensure others lose their advantagein the face of lightning-fast developments. But now, even as the ones who set the stage, we have noidea when this turning point will actually occur. It could be three months or several decades. Before thisturning point, the world is still dominated by the eight families. Asura’s Office has no chance of victory.Let me tell you something simple. Even if we don’t count the Blackwood family, the number ofcultivators from the other seven families who have reached the God Realm is definitely over twohundred. Do you, the over one million members of Asura’s Office, have any strategies to deal withthese two hundred God Realm cultivators?”

Sirius’ spiritual energy dissipated, and the fragments of grass in the sky scattered with the wind,landing on Jonathan’s face. It felt as if sharp arrows were piercing Jonathan’s heart.

“I can take people out of the small world!” Jonathan replied with a serious look on his face. Before this,I was uncertain about the impending war. Now, there isn’t much to worry about. In this small world,there might be a shortage of other things, but when it comes to God Realm cultivators, there’s morethan enough!
