Deities: Starting From Goblins
Chapter 1397 - Chapter 1397 Chapter 762 Yearning_2

Chapter 1397: Chapter 762: Yearning_2 Chapter 1397: Chapter 762: Yearning_2 Logan listened to Frey Wright’s words and just smiled faintly. He wasn’t the kind of person to be easily threatened or enticed; he had his own principles and bottom line.

“Deeply grateful? Eager support? These words hold no substantial meaning to me,” Logan shook his head and spoke with determination, “All I know is that this Dragon Blood is very important to me; it is the key to my improvement. If you truly want to obtain it, you must present conditions that satisfy me. If you cannot, then the Dragon Blood will not be yours.”

Frey Wright’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. He knew that Logan wasn’t someone who could be easily persuaded. It seemed they would have to put in some effort to acquire the Dragon Blood.

As these words were spoken, the expressions of the Wright Family members present subtly changed. Frey Wright knitted his brows, his eyes flashing with a mix of astonishment and displeasure. The family butler beside him was also stunned, evidently not expecting anyone to so boldly disregard the Wright Family.

“You… you actually don’t know about the Wright Family?” Frey Wright said haltingly, hardly believing his own ears. On the Mainland, the Wright Family was well-known; whether in the business world or the Martial Arts, they were given a certain amount of respect. Yet this youngster before them seemed to know nothing of the Wright Family, showing no deference whatsoever.

They did indeed entertain the idea of using their great influence to bully others, thinking that flashing the Wright Family’s name would immediately lead to the surrender of the Dragon Blood. After all, in many people’s eyes, earning a favor from the Wright Family was an entirely beneficial affair.

“Hmph, young man, don’t be ungrateful. A favor from the Wright Family is not something just anyone can receive,” the butler huffed coldly, attempting to use the Wright Family’s influence to pressure Logan.

Unfortunately, this youngster was not playing along, utterly unmoved by their propositions. Logan just smiled faintly, his eyes revealing a steadfast stubbornness.

“The Wright Family’s favor is of no importance to me; what I know is that this Dragon Blood holds extraordinary significance. If you truly wish to have it, then you must present conditions that satisfy me,” Logan said with a firm tone, unfazed by threats or enticements from others.

Frey Wright and the butler exchanged helpless and irritated glances. They had thought this situation would be an easy resolve, only to encounter such a difficult individual.

“What on earth do you want?” Frey Wright said, his frustration mounting, unable to stand Logan’s attitude.

Logan simply smiled faintly and did not immediately respond to Frey Wright. He knew the power was in his hands, and there was no need for him to rush.

A stalemate ensued between the two parties, the atmosphere turning somewhat stiff. The members of the Wright Family all wore gloomy expressions, clearly dissatisfied with Logan’s attitude. Meanwhile, Logan appeared composed, seemingly unaffected by the Wright Family’s presence.

“Hmph, young man, don’t think we truly won’t dare to do anything to you. If you keep being so obstinate, don’t blame us for being rude,” the butler huffed coldly, trying to threaten Logan with the potential of violence.

Logan just smiled faintly, not intimidated. He knew the Wright Family were formidable, but he was no pushover. If it really came to blows, who would win or lose was still up for debate.

By chance, the group from an aristocratic family that had previously sought revenge on Logan passed by this place. They had keen eyesight and recognized Logan at once. At the same time, they also recognized the clan opposite them–the Wright Family, including the Wright Family’s Second Young Master Frey Wright.

“Oh, it turns out to be Second Young Master Wright, I truly didn’t expect to see you here!” A disciple of the noble family approached with a face full of smiles, “What’s the matter, did this lad do something to offend you? To actually have so many people surrounding him? Do you need my help? Our families have always been on good terms, if there’s anything Second Young Master Wright needs, please just say it!”

These people were clearly delighted by the commotion and even seemed keen on stirring up trouble, hoping to benefit from it. They had been taught a lesson by Logan before and were worried about not finding an opportunity for revenge. Now, seeing Logan in conflict with the Wright Family, they were naturally happy to see it happen.

Logan looked at them coldly, his eyes revealing a condescending disdain. He had long seen through their intentions; nothing more than wanting to take this opportunity for revenge while also trying to curry favor with the Wright Family.

Frey Wright glanced at these noble family’s descendants and his expression softened considerably. He knew there was some favor between the families. Although he wasn’t very familiar with this particular family, since they had taken the initiative to show goodwill, he would not refuse.

“Hmph, this lad hasn’t done anything to offend me, but he has something in his hands that is very important to my Wright Family.” Frey Wright snorted and did not beat around the bush, directly revealing his wish to purchase the Dragon Blood, “It looks like you are acquainted with this gentleman. How about you mediate for us? If I can successfully acquire the Dragon Blood, naturally, I will not treat everyone unfairly.”

Hearing this, the noble family’s descendants’ eyes gleamed with excitement. They hadn’t expected Logan to have something the Wright Family wanted, and it was such a precious item at that. It was a rare opportunity for them.

“Ah, Second Young Master, you’re too polite. We also have some grievances with that lad Logan and have been worried about not finding the opportunity to deal with him. Now since the Second Young Master requires it, we naturally cannot shirk our duty and must help you acquire the Dragon Blood!” The descendants of the noble families stated their positions, each more eager than the last.

They began to sow discord, one moment mocking Logan coldly and derisively, the next flattering and fawning over Frey Wright. They wished to make Logan feel isolated and helpless, thus being forced to hand over the Dragon Blood.

Logan watched their antics with silent scorn in his heart. He had long seen through their motives and knew they would not easily let him off the hook. However, he was not afraid, for he had his own trump cards and strength. He believed that as long as he persevered, he would surely be able to protect the Dragon Blood in his hands.

“Second Young Master Wright, I advise you not to waste words on this lad,” said that noble family’s descendant with a face full of indignation, his eyes revealing a deep disdain for Logan, “This guy is impervious to reason; speaking any amount of truth to him is a waste of breath. Moreover, he is not any good; if you seize the item from his hands, it would truly be ridding the people of a scourge!”

Frey Wright’s eyebrows knitted slightly upon hearing this, the first time he encountered such an assertion, becoming greatly intrigued by Logan’s identity and background. “Oh? What makes you say that? Does this… Young Hero have a feud with you?” Frey Wright intentionally emphasized the words “Young Hero,” wanting to see the other party’s reaction.

Upon hearing this, the noble family’s descendant sneered: “Young Hero? As if any Tom, Dick, or Harry has the right to be called a hero! Haha, Second Young Master Wright, you truly flatter this Logan too much. This person is nothing but a street thug, or a ruthless killing deity! Previously, it was he who killed our family clan’s noble family’s descendants, seven or eight of them, all atrociously slain by his hand. The scene was truly unbearable to witness!”

He deliberately paused for a moment, as if to let Frey Wright form a deeper impression of Logan’s misdeeds. Then, he continued, “For some unknown reason, the Princess intervened on his behalf, sparing his life. Second Young Master Wright, you don’t need to show mercy to such a person. Whatever he wants, he always takes by any means necessary; there’s no use talking reason with him. If you want the Dragon Blood, just take it by force; he’s not a good person!”

After listening, a flicker of doubt crossed Frey Wright’s eyes. Although he wasn’t someone who easily believed others, the other party’s words had piqued his curiosity about Logan’s identity and background. He turned his head to look at Logan, who remained calm and composed, seemingly unconcerned with the accusations and slander.
