Chapter 199 Who Holds the Upper Hand
Benjamin’s words, seemingly in defense of his grandson, were actually fueling the fire.
If Leones truly knelt, the Kingsley family would not easily spare him.
In that case, if Leones suffered severe injuries and lost face, the Bloom family would still be under Benjamin’s control.
However, if Leones remained defiant and continued to resist the two ancient warriors, that would be even better.
In that case, he would be digging his own grave.
By using the ancient warriors‘ strength to get rid of Leones, Benjamin could eliminate future.
trouble.
Even if the Bloom family eventually aligned with the Kingsley family, Benjamin would accept it. Having ancient families as a backing seemed like a good choice.
Just like the Pope family, it had secretly aligned itself with the ancient families and had thrived. “Leones, do you understand your wrongdoing?” Benjamin continued to scold Leones, trying to assert his dominance.
The surrounding people were anxiously watching the tense standoff, worrying about Leones. Facing two formidable ancient warriors, even someone as capable as Leones might have to admit defeat this time.
“Mr. Bloom…” people from the Five Major Families whispered, trying to persuade him to be more cautious and not act recklessly.
“Leones!” Jason hurriedly shouted, fearing that his son might make an irrational decision.
“Leones…” Susan, who didn’t know much about ancient families, also felt uneasy seeing everyone’s fearful expressions. She tugged at Leones’s sleeve, hoping to dissuade him from impulsive actions. Timothy, seeing that Leones was about to suffer, decided not to leave just yet.
He thought maybe he wouldn’t need to leave the Bloom family, because the orders of a dead man no longer held any meaning.
Like Benjamin, Timothy secretly hoped that Leones would remain defiant and get killed by the
ancient warriors.
As they both wished, Leones didn’t back down and didn’t consider kneeling or apologizing. “So, it’s the Pope family?” Leones realized with a smirk. “They don’t dare to come personally, so they send you to cause trouble here?
“It seems that the Pope family is nothing special. Their decline is inevitable.”
If the Pope family dared to come in person, it would be a sign of their courage.
But currently, they were hiding in the shadows, not daring to show their faces, even with ancient warriors backing them. It was clear they had been intimidated.
Why should he even care?
“The Pope family is indeed nothing special!” Vincent also agreed with Leones’s point of view.
After all, having to rely on ancient warriors to regain their standing against ordinary people was quite pathetic.
“But the Bloom family is no different!” Vincent continued.
In the eyes of ancient warriors, whether it was the Pope family, the Bloom family, or even the entire top ten distinguished families in Sherland, they were all insignificant ants.
They could support the Pope family and easily crush the Bloom family, too.
It all depended on their whim.
“No!” Leones shook his head. “You’re wrong.”
“Oh?” Vincent raised an eyebrow, curious about what Leones would say next. “Where did I wrong?”
“In the past, the Bloom family was indeed insignificant, just like the Pope family,” Leones. admitted.

“But in the future, under my leadership, the Bloom family will become a force that even the Kingsley family can’t afford to underestimate!”
What?!
As soon as these words came out, the crowd was suddenly dead silent.
It felt as if they had stepped into a graveyard, and everyone around them was frozen and frightened.
Even Samuel, who had been silent all this time, couldn’t help but change his expression slightly, his eyes filled with intense murderous intention.
It was over. It was over!
After a moment of shock and fear, the crowd gradually snapped out of it.
They believed that Leones had just stirred up a huge problem and sealed his own fate.
How could a mere ordinary family compare to the ancient families?
To become a force that even the Kingsley family couldn’t afford to underestimate was nothing short of fantasy!
Ancient families must not be insulted!
Leones had dared to make such bold statements in front of two ancient warriors, and it seemed like he was digging his own grave.
With their fury, they could easily wipe out the Bloom family in an instant.
“Oh
my god! Is Leones insane?”
“We’re finished… He himself has offended the ancient warriors, and there’s no need for our entire Bloom family to go down with him!”
“Yeah, this could lead to the destruction of our entire family!”
At this moment, the Bloom family was filled with panic and fear.

They hadn’t expected their new chief to bring such a catastrophic disaster to the family right after taking over.
“Please spare us, Your Excellency!”

Benjamin also broke out in cold sweat, never imagining that Leones would act so recklessly. Benjamin had hoped that Leones would stand his ground, and then the ancient warriors might kill him.

But it was not like dragging the whole family down with him!
“Leones’s words represent only himself and have nothing to do with our Bloom family!” Benjamin declared, “Moreover, he forcefully took the position of the family head using ruthless means.”
“We, the Bloom family, really dare not oppose the Kingsley family. Please, Your Excellency, see this clearly!”
Benjamin led the way, and the rest of the Bloom family members followed suit.
“That’s right! Just now, we were threatened to give in to Leones.”
“In our hearts, the family chief has always been Mr. Benjamin Bloom, and it
so!”
Ce to be
“Leones is not the head of our family, and we expelled him from the Bloom family long ago. He doesn’t represent us!”
The Bloom family members who had previously supported Leones now began to shift their allegiance to the other side, firmly opposing Leones.
In an instant, the situation on the scene underwent a dramatic upheaval.
Who would be in charge of the Bloom family?
Everyone eagerly awaited the outcome.
