Chapter 1469 -1469: Overbearing Ken Middleton
All eyes immediately turned toward the direction of the voice.
“Ken Middleton!”
Upon seeing him, Egbert Briggs’s face visibly darkened.
The rest of the crowd also turned their attention to Ken Middleton, their expressions betraying a trace of solemnity.
*Everyone knew that most of the cultivators who had invaded from North Plain had fallen to Ken Middleton’s blade. His bitterness and hatred toward them ran deep.*
*Now that he had arrived, no one could predict what consequences would follow.*
Ken Middleton strode forward and said coldly, “This so-called arrangement might seem to serve the interests of the majority, but in truth, it only benefits a few selfish individuals sitting here.”
“Ken Middleton, why did you come so late?” Alf Dillon said with a smile.
Ken Middleton ignored him. Raising his hand, he declared, “I don’t agree with your proposal either.”
Egbert Briggs said with a grim face, “Ken Middleton, you came late, so you don’t even have the right to participate!”
“Oh? Since when did you have the right to meddle in the affairs of the Southern Province?” Ken Middleton’s tone was so icy it sent chills down everyone’s spine.
Someone stepped forward to mediate, saying, “Mr. Middleton, this matter is beneficial to everyone. Why oppose it? Do you wish to let the people on the border continue suffering?”
“Indeed, isn’t this a win-win solution? Why reject it?”
Ken Middleton glanced at them before saying, “You want to negotiate, huh? Fine. I’ve done the math—over the years, your North Plain has killed three million, two hundred eighty-one thousand, two hundred and thirty-one people along the Southern Province border. Negotiation? No problem. Let me kill an equal number from your North Plain first.”
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this!
*Ken Middleton had remembered the number so precisely?*
*Three million? That total might exceed the entirety of North Plain’s population!*
“Ken Middleton, you’re deliberately making this difficult!” Egbert Briggs said angrily.
Ken Middleton sneered, “If you can’t make it happen, then get back to North Plain and take your proposal with you.”
“Ken Middleton, don’t push your luck! Do you really think you can overwrite everyone’s decision single-handedly?” At this moment, the First Elder interjected.
Ken Middleton immediately turned toward the First Elder, his face darkened. “Can you represent Cloud Sect?”
“Indeed. Since the sect master is not here, Cloud Sect’s decisions fall to me!” The First Elder said smugly.
Upon hearing this, Ken Middleton responded coldly, “Your sect master truly made a foolish decision, appointing an idiot like you.”
“You!” The First Elder was furious but, unable to rival Ken Middleton’s strength, could only swallow his anger. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Alf Dillon chuckled, “Come now, everyone. Let’s not rush. Everything can be discussed calmly.”
“There’s nothing to discuss. I’ve made myself clear. Anyone from North Plain I encounter, I’ll kill on sight.” Ken Middleton said firmly.
“And for those of you who’d cozy up to North Plain’s people? I’m more than willing to include you in the slaughter.”
His words caused an uproar among those present!
*What arrogance!*
*Even here among the elite—Eric Mitchell of the three lunatics, Alf Dillon, and top experts from the Southern Province, including Cloud Sect’s representatives—Ken Middleton’s words were unbelievably brazen!*
“Ken Middleton, you’ve gone too far!” Someone shouted angrily.
Ken Middleton looked at him coldly and said, “If you’re unhappy, step forward and fight me. I don’t mind sending you to your end a little early.”
The person immediately fell silent, not daring to utter another word.
Egbert Briggs said coldly, “Ken Middleton, must you stand against North Plain?”
Ken Middleton laughed loudly, “Is your brain broken? Haven’t my actions made it obvious enough?”
“You!” Egbert Briggs clenched his teeth tightly. This Ken Middleton was clearly immovable!
“Ken Middleton, let me tell you, your obstruction means nothing. The Southern Province and North Plain are moving closer and closer each day. When the inevitable happens, no one will be able to stop North Plain!”
“And let me also tell you this: if you accept my proposal now, you can still obtain the Sacred Heart Formula. But when the Southern Province and North Plain fully merge, you’ll have nothing!”
Ken Middleton laughed mockingly, “Your idiotic technique? I couldn’t care less!”
Egbert Briggs’s face darkened further as he said, “Ken Middleton, mark my words. You’ll pay for this.”
Not only Egbert Briggs—First Elder’s expression was extremely grim as well.
Egbert Briggs turned to Alf Dillon and said, “Since you all disagree, I will take my leave now.”
Having said that, Egbert Briggs turned and prepared to leave.
“Stop!” Ken Middleton suddenly called out.
Egbert Briggs froze mid-step and said coldly, “What is it now?”
Ken Middleton said icily, “It seems you didn’t hear me clearly earlier. I said, anyone from North Plain I encounter, I kill on sight!”
Egbert Briggs’s expression instantly changed! Panic flickered in his eyes as he said, “Ken Middleton, don’t go too far! Surely you understand that emissaries are not killed during diplomatic negotiations!”
“Mr. Middleton, Egbert Briggs is here to negotiate. Killing him wouldn’t make sense.” Others chimed in from the sidelines.
“Even if you disagree, you should at least let Egbert Briggs leave. Striking him down now would only tarnish our reputation far and wide!”
In an instant, everyone shifted their focus onto Ken Middleton, aligning against him.
Ken Middleton waved his hand and shouted angrily, “You noisy lot, shut up for me!”
The thunderous roar reverberated through the hall, causing everyone’s ears to ring. Some even had their eardrums shattered, leaving their ears bleeding profusely.
