Chapter 415: Chapter 413: 413 Martial Way Family_1

“Are you happy with all these?”

“Happy.”

It was the first time Chelsea Wolfe had seen so many high-end items, and while she was shocked, she was also so excited that she couldn’t contain herself. Without concern for the others present, she hugged Greg Jensen and kissed him on the cheek.

“Alright, let’s eat first.”

“Okay.”

The two went to the dining room, where seven or eight beautifully prepared dishes filled the table.

In addition, there were various breakfast pastries and snacks.

You couldn’t just call such a breakfast lavish; it was outright luxurious.

Greg didn’t care. He had earned this with his strength, and he planned to gain even more formidable power, stand in an even higher position, and enjoy the kind of treatment others couldn’t.

Because, that is just how this world works.

When you have strength, you have status, and the right to enjoy everything.

After breakfast, Chelsea returned to her room with her pile of luxuries, while Greg headed to the study.

Glen Wolfe, who had been waiting in the study, quickly stood up to greet him, “Mr. Wolfe…”

“Call me boss, ‘Mr.’ sounds awkward.”

“Okay.”

Greg casually sat down behind the desk and said indifferently, “Tell me, what’s the situation with the Martial Way families in Qin province now?”

“Okay.”

Glen cleared his throat, pondered for a moment, and began, “Martial Way families can generally be divided into first-rate and second-rate families, and then there’s the top-tier family.

Our Qin province has always had a strong martial spirit, so there are many Martial Way families. Let’s not mention those that aren’t noteworthy.

The current first-rate families are only four: the Milton Family, the Preston Family, the Cooper Family, and our Wolfe Family.

Of course, after this Martial Way conference, we may also have to include the Simmons family.”

Greg raised an eyebrow, surprised, “Wasn’t the Simmons family considered first-rate before?”

“That was many years ago.”

Glen laughed lightly, with a hint of disdain, “The current first-rate families are only first-rate in their own minds.

In our eyes, the Simmons family has long ceased to be first-rate.

Anyway, this distinction is implicit, and the actual benefits received don’t really relate to it.”

Greg fell silent for a moment, then asked, “What about the top-tier family?”

“Currently, the top-tier family is only the Green family.”

“The Green family? Because they have a Grandmaster?”

Fraser Simmons had told Greg about the martial experts in Qin province, with particular emphasis on the elder Grandmaster of the Green family.

Nathan Green had been in the Master Realm for many years and was regarded as the person in Qin province with the most hope of stepping into the Dao Realm. Hence, the Green family became the top-tier family.

Greg frowned, “You mean the ranking of families is determined by the highest combat power?”

“Correct, since it is the Martial Way conference, true strength is what matters,” said Glen.

Greg curiously asked, “Can’t you hire others to fight on your behalf?”

Glen gave a wry smile, “There is no rule against hiring help, but the cost of hiring a Grandmaster is simply too great.

There’s another issue, a Grandmaster can’t protect you forever. Once the Grandmaster is gone, whatever you shouldn’t have taken has to be given back.”

Greg nodded, then asked, “So, that means the Milton, Preston, and Cooper families all have half-step Grandmasters?”

Glen nodded, “Yes, each family has one half-step Grandmaster.”

Greg looked at him with a smirk, “Where do you rank among these four?”

Glen gave an awkward smile, “Heh, that’s not easy to say, I haven’t been in action for a long time.”

Greg understood. Given Glen’s relaxed demeanor, his abilities among the four families were probably not weak.

“So, all I have to do is defeat the Green family?”

“Yes, that’s right. As long as you can defeat Nathan Green, I believe the other three families won’t dare to say anything anymore.”

“Hmm, before the Martial Way conference arrives, remember to notify me in advance.”

“Of course, Mr. Wolfe.”

Upon hearing that Greg Jensen wanted to defeat Nathan Green, Glen Wolfe didn’t take it to heart; he simply considered it a long-term goal that Greg had set for himself.

Nathan Green had been a Grandmaster for many years; was Barry Wolfe aiming too high trying to defeat him straight off the bat?

…

The Green family.

When Asher Green returned home, he told of his encounter with the charming Magician in Danu.

Learning that his grandson had come across Barry Wolfe, Nathan Green couldn’t help but feel a surge of fear, speaking sternly, “You did the right thing. A true man knows when to bow and when to stand tall. You mustn’t, out of transient pride, risk your family’s lives.

Throwing away one’s life over a matter of pride—that is the true folly.”

“Yes, Grandfather.”

Asher Green breathed a sigh of relief; he had felt too weak in front of Barry Wolfe, having lost face for the Green family, and he was afraid his grandfather would be angry because of that.

Fortunately, his grandfather was quite sensible and did not fly into a rage.

Ah, all because of Barry Wolfe!

Asher Green frowned, thinking that if not for Barry Wolfe’s sudden appearance, perhaps he might have already won over Samantha Adams.

“That damn Barry Wolfe had better not come to the Qin Province, or I’ll have to take care of him!”

Seeing his grandson gritting his teeth, Nathan Green smiled slightly and said, “All because of a woman, is it worth it?”

Asher Green’s face flushed, and he explained, “Grandfather, this isn’t about the woman. Samantha Adams is connected to both the Adams and Holmes families; their influence in Mystic City is extraordinary. If we could marry her into our Green family…”

“Asher, there’s no need to say more.”

Nathan Green waved his hand, speaking with a touch of severity, “What’s the use of marrying her into the family?

Do you think those two families will help our Green family just because you married Samantha Adams?

Even elevate the Green family to a top-tier family?

Ridiculous!

The essence of a marriage alliance is actually to establish a bridge for exchanging interests.

If you want to gain benefits, first think about what you can offer.

If you have nothing, it’s not an alliance—it’s marrying down.

That means those two families could take the opportunity to infiltrate and assimilate the Green family, and you’d gain nothing. Understand?”

“Grandfather, I…”

Asher Green was left red-faced and embarrassed, realizing only then how naive his thoughts were.

Looking at his grandson’s expression, Nathan Green chuckled softly and said warmly, “You don’t need to be too nervous. You’re still young and can become anything you want to be.

No matter what you want to do, your grandfather will support you.”

“Grandfather, thank you!” Asher Green was so moved he didn’t know what to say.

Nathan Green said earnestly, “Remember, without true power, posturing as a mighty one is futile. Strength must come from within yourself.

I won’t interfere with your dealings with Samantha Adams, but I have one requirement of you.”

“What is it, Grandfather?”

“Even if you really do end up with Samantha Adams, you must be the one in control. If she’s to marry you in the future, it should be her actively seeking it. Do you understand?”

Listening to his grandfather’s words, Asher Green’s spirits soared, and he declared firmly, “Grandfather, I understand. I will definitely not let you down.”

Nathan Green nodded in satisfaction and smiled, “Go chase your dreams. As for that charming Magician, if he dares come to the Qin Province, your grandfather will make sure to take revenge on your behalf, no matter what.”

“Yes, thank you, Grandfather…”
