God-Tier Providence System-Chapter 89

"Saint Lord, you... you took a long trip this time, and actually managed to acquire the Void Domain Cave Heaven as well?!"

"But of course." Alex grinned and laughed. "Such a good place suitable for cultivation, and so close to our Hale family."

"A piece of fat meat that occupies all the advantages of favorable timing, geographical convenience, and harmonious human relations. How could I not eat it?"

"However, right now, the Void Domain Cave Heaven is still under development, so it is inconvenient for too many people to go and disturb it."

"Once everything is properly set up, I will select a batch of young disciples with outstanding aptitude from the family and relocate them to the Void Domain Cave Heaven to cultivate for three years."

"Without breaking through to the Mahayana Realm, no one is allowed to come back!"

This domineering declaration left the Four Great Elders in a daze.

First Elder Cedric and Third Elder Tobias eagerly leaned forward, smiling sycophantically.

"Saint Lord, next time you go out on business, could you take my son, Lucas, along?"

"My son not only has profound cultivation and superior aptitude, but he is also astute and intelligent, often coming up with brilliant ideas that make people’s eyes light up!"

"No, no, Saint Lord, you should take my disciple instead!"

"My disciple is simple, honest, and reliable. Since childhood, he has never shown off, nor has he caused disasters or provoked trouble."

"If the Saint Lord takes him along on business, I guarantee he won’t cause you any trouble!"

...

Although Alex’s words eased their tense emotions quite a bit, the instant they stepped into the Saint Lord’s Hall, the Four Great Elders instantly restrained the smiles on their faces.

With stern and solemn expressions, they followed expressionlessly behind Alex.

Inside the main hall, aside from his own Saint Lord’s Throne facing due north, in the four directions of northeast, northwest, southeast, and southwest, there were four thrones made of completely different materials.

In the northeast, on an Obsidian Throne.

A middle-aged man dressed in a black robe sat upright upon the throne. Holding a teacup in his hands, he seemed to be concentrating entirely on tasting the tea. Seeing Alex arrive, he merely gave him a look of acknowledgment.

The Saint Lord of the White Feather Dynasty Branch Family, Oscar Hale.

In the northwest, on a Red Rock Throne.

Sat a burly man with thick shoulders and a broad waist. His skin was entirely red, his muscles extremely developed, his physique resembling a small mountain. His belly was so bloated it looked about to burst, yet he still held a cow leg in his hand, gorging himself, mouth covered in grease.

The Saint Lord of the Myriad Thunder Dynasty Branch Family, Peter Hale.

In the southeast was a White Jade Throne.

Sitting on the throne was a hunched, short old man. He sat cross-legged with his eyes closed in concentration. Motionless as an old monk in deep meditation.

The Saint Lord of the Imperial Plume Dynasty Branch Family, Martin Hale.

In the southwest, however, was a magnificent Glazed Crystal Throne that immediately drew the eye the moment one walked in. And sitting impressively upon the throne was a woman with a beautiful, striking appearance.

Clad in a red robe, adorned with elegant, light makeup. Long hair coiled elegantly atop her head.

Her aura was cold and stern. Her expression deeply majestic.

In terms of pure physical beauty, she might have been a few points inferior to Aurelia. However, in terms of a kingly, domineering aura, even compared to the Heavenly Flame Empress, she was completely on par. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

If not superior.

The Branch Family Head of the Purple Star Dynasty, Alice.

At this very moment, the Saint Lords of the Four Great Branch Families were all seated upon their respective thrones. Faces full of arrogance, acting as if they were absolutely unexcelled in this world.

Even upon seeing Alex arrive, they showed absolutely no intention of standing up to greet him. Their domineering and wildly arrogant nature fully on display.

But all of this was well within Alex’s expectations.

In the original novel, these four major branch families were nothing but a pack of ungrateful, white-eyed wolves. They acted outwardly submissive, happily gorging on the Main Family’s benefits, but inwardly harbored malicious, treacherous intentions.

Later, before Knox officially moved to eradicate the Hale family, he sent people to threaten and intimidate them. During the battle that annihilated the Hale family, these four branch families truly did just sit on their fucking hands and do absolutely nothing.

They watched helplessly as thousands of Main Family disciples lost their lives. Without lifting a single finger to help.

Furthermore, Alice of the Purple Star Dynasty even dispatched her own daughter, Clara, to lead the branch family’s elites into the fray.

Except she wasn’t sending them to help Alex.

She sent them to help fucking Knox.

Thinking of this, an intense fury instantly surged within Alex’s heart. The good temper he had managed to maintain moments ago vanished without a trace.

His face sank, dark and cold as stagnant water. He shouted sternly.

"You four are getting more and more unruly."

"Seeing this seat arrive, why do you not bow?!"

Alex infused this shout with his spiritual energy, stirring up heavy, booming echoes.

The terrifying aura of a mighty powerhouse at the seventh level of the Supreme Realm swept through the entire grand hall, lingering heavily in the air for a long time.

The four branch family heads were instantly dumbfounded.

In the past, every time they visited, Alex was always extremely polite and courteous, frequently yielding to their demands.

Why was he losing his temper so explosively today over such a trivial matter as not standing up to greet him?

It seemed this old fellow wasn’t in a very beautiful mood today.

All four were smart people. They naturally weren’t going to deliberately provoke his anger.

They immediately stood up one after another. Bowed their bodies. Clasped their fists. Shouted loudly in unison.

"White Feather Dynasty Branch Family Head, Oscar Hale, pays respects to the Saint Lord!"

"Myriad Thunder Dynasty Branch Family Head, Peter Hale, pays respects to the Saint Lord!"
