All Novel Full Chapter 92 - Are You Even Worthy?
As Rebecca was speaking she was suddenly interrupted by the sound of Patriarch Randall
...
"Today, I as Patriarch of the Pierce clan herby congratulate Grand patriarch Jarred on his miraculous recovery.
To commemorate such a joyous event the Pierce clan has brought many gifts to kinsman Clan as seen earlier!"
There was a loud applause as everyone applauded the claims of the Pierce clan Patriarch But behind this friendly display from the Pierce Clan, most people here knew there was a much greater reason behind the sudden nice treatment.
Now that Grand Patriarch Jarred had recovered the Kinsman Clan now had a complete Martial Adept realm cultivator.
Just this fact alone was enough to finish the Pierce clan. Just look at the Slater Clan, as soon as the protection of the Blood Moon Palace left they were swiftly dealt with and exterminated by the Kinsman Clan.
Don't look at Winton and think that it's normal to be able to fight people in the realm above you, that man was just a monster that couldn't be judged by normal standards!
For a regular martial journeyman realm cultivator, all it would take was for a martial adept realm cultivator to fart in their general direction for them to be slapped into oblivion.
And it was Because of this depressing fact that the Pierce Clan knew that if they wanted even the slightest chance at surviving, they would have to find a way to buy it from the Kinsman Clan.
after a brief pause waiting for the applause to die down, Randall once again began to speak.
"in addition to this, the Pierce clan will not be in contention for the spirit steel mines previously owned by the Slater and are even willing to give up half of the resources earned from one of our mines!"
"ahh!"
Gasps of disbelief sounded out through the hall as they heard Patriarch Randall's statement.
They weren't that surprised at Randall giving up contesting for the Slater Clan mines and resources as that was already sort of expected after seeing the tyrannical strength showed by the Kinsman Clan.
what really shocked them was Randall giving up half the proceedings of one of their mines!
The Pierce Clan only had 2 Spirit Steel mines so giving up half of one mine was giving up a quarter of their annual profits!
Even Grand Patriarch Jarred, who had already been expecting some sort of bribe from the Pierce Clan, was still surprised at the extent the Pierce Clan was willing to go to ensure the mercy of the Kinsman Clan.
But the next words Patriarch Randall said shocked the crowd even more.
" Although I've always felt that although the Kinsman Clan and the Pierce Clan already have a very good relationship, there is still room to improve it.
And it's Because of this reason, I, as the patriarch of the Pierce Clan, am willing to propose an engagement between the treasure of the Pierce Clan, Adelia Pierce, and the Legendary Dual spirit awakener, Dante Kinsman!"
Hearing this statement the crowd present burst into an outrage.
Randall Pierce was actually trying to join the two clans through marriage!
hearing Randall's statement, Dante was just as surprised as the rest of the crowd. He only came to observe the meeting and now he was the topic for an engagement!
Dante looked towards his proposed partner, Adelia Pierce, and suddenly felt a sense of duty to the clan swell inside of him
'Maybe this engagement won't be so bad after all
I mean.., it's my duty to do whatever is in the best interests of the clan right?'
Some people had to be engaged to ugly partners, at least his partner was a jaw-dropping beauty. with these facts, you really wouldn't find Dante complaining.
Just as Dante was about to step forward and beat the responsibility of the clan on his back Grand Patriarch Jarred's cold voice suddenly spoke out inside the hall.
"You want an engagement to my grandson and With only the backing of your Pierce Clan?
Let me ask you a question. Are you even worthy?"
After hearing Jarred's words, Patriarch Randall was left stunned and couldn't help but ask in
"pa..pardon?"
"You heard me" replied Jarred
"Is your Pierce Clan even worthy of an engagement from the kinsman Clan?
My Grandson, Dante, is already a dual spirit awakener his talent lies far beyond the small reaches of a place like brightsteel city!
Does your Pierce clan even have someone who is able to match such a talent?
Even if we look at the power of each clan, the Pierce Clan doesn't even have someone of cultivation of The martial adept realm!
Other than a slightly pretty daughter, what does the Pierce Clan even have going for them?"
after Grand patriarch Jarred finished speaking the crowds were left stunned silent.
The silence was so loud you could even hear a pin drop but despite this silence, Patriarch Randall was going mad internally.
'You old fart! How dare you humiliate the Pierce Clan in such a way!
I come to you bringing gifts only to be treated like this! You may as well have slapped me in the face!'
Despite Patriarch Randall's burning anger, he dared not show it on his face.
Realistically what could he do?
In front of Grand patriarch Jarred who was a martial adept realm cultivator he was nothing more than an ant.
Grand Patriarch Jarred had just slapped him in the face and all he could do was take it!
"Hahaha! It seems like I overstepped my boundaries with this proposal. just take those words as the mad ramblings of this tired patriarch"
trying to save some of the dignity the Pierce Clan still had left, Patriarch Randall proposed to leave
but before he could even take a few steps he was interrupted by Jarred's voice
"When you leave remember to leave the gifts you brought, out of respect for your father I'll let you keep the half of your mine you offered."
hearing Jarred's words, Randall almost snapped as he turned around to Jarred in a rage,
but just as he turned around he made eye contact with Jarred's pair of emotionless eyes and when he did it was like a bucket of cold water was poured onto him.
looking at Jarred's eyes, Randall could clearly sense that Jarred wasn't playing any games with him.
If he dared to make a scene here, Jarred would squash him like a bug!
Despite all his internal fury, Randall could only sigh at how strong the Kinsman clan had become and quickly drag his members out of the Kinsman Clan hall.
The Pierce Clan members quickly lowered their heads as they quickly hurried out trying to hide their embarrassment!
