Chapter 260 Greedy Look
In Diatoran, the Eight Noble Lineages couldn’t compare to Avery and Aster.
Georgie and the others weren’t even qualified to sit in front of Caspian.
Sylvia nodded, then took two new cups.
The moment Avery and Aster saw her, they were shocked. This was their first time meeting Sylvia. But they could feel that she wasn’t simple. She had an extraordinary presence in every move she made.
They didn’t expect Caspian to have such a martial arts expert by his side. Most importantly, she obeyed his every word.
Thus, they became more nervous. Silence fell in the room.
Caspian asked with a smile, “What’s the purpose of your sudden visit?”
They looked at each other.
“Mr. Lynch, everyone knows Galecrest’s goals. Cole originally wanted to expand his power. through the martial arts competition. But his plan failed. He won’t let us go. Galecrest may take brutal revenge toward other ancient martial families.” Avery looked worried.
“Ms. Kirk, what are your plans?” he asked calmly.
Avery told him her plan. “I’ve discussed this with Mr. Stevens. We want to cooperate with your to fight against Galecrest! You’re the alliance leader. We’ll obey your orders. Celestial Sanctum will also follow you. Galecrest will lose!”
He smiled faintly. “But why should I go to all the trouble to help you deal with Galecrest?”
Aster said unpleasantly, “Since you’re the alliance leader, you’re responsible for maintaining peace among the forces…
He interrupted, “I never wanted to be the alliance leader. It’s you guys who insist on choosing me. Besides, you guys must be already in trouble if Cole becomes the alliance leader.
“I’m not a fool. I can see through your plans. You asked me to deal with Galecrest. If I succeed, Azure Flames and Skyfeather Pavilion will become the leading forces in the south of Diatoran. You guys just want me to fend off the risk and danger. Your plans are indeed good!”
His words rendered Avery and Aster speechless for a moment.
That was what they thought. They planned to let Caspian take the lead in dealing with Galecrest. After he destroyed Galecrest, they would be the biggest beneficiaries.
Unfortunately, he could see through their thoughts at a glance.

“You…” Aster seemed unconvinced and wanted to say more..
But Avery glared at him and signaled him to stop talking nonsense.
She smiled charmingly. “Mr. Lynch, you’ve ruined Cole’s plan. Aren’t you worried that Colet will come for you?”
of Cole?
“Ms. Kirk, you’re a beauty, but you’re not clever enough. Why would I be afraid of Caspian said disdainfully.
At that, Avery froze. His identity had always been mysterious, and he was also powerful.
But what surprised Avery and Aster was the fact that he was so confident and didn’t take Cole
seriously.
He was so arrogant. They wondered how strong he actually was.
Caspian said impatiently, “Let’s stop talking nonsense. I can destroy Galecrest, but I’ll take all of Galecrest’s assets! I’ll only give you one–tenth of it!”
Hearing that, Aster and Avery were a little shocked.
Galecrest had many properties in Naporia. A rough estimate of the combined assets was more
than a few billion.
He was so greedy to annex such a large part.
“Caspian, you’re so greedy! Do you think it’s appropriate for you to take over all of Galecrest’s assets?” Aster’s expression darkened, and he stood up.
“You bastard! How dare you be rude to Caspian?” Sylvia shouted as she stood up.
Caspian waved and signaled her to step back.
Caspian sneered. “I’m just taking what belongs to me. Once I destroy Galecrest, you guys will be the ones who benefit the most. At that time, you’ll take over the scattered forces of Galecrest and expand your territories.
“In a few days, no force in the entire southern Diatoran can compete with you. You can imagine the perks. I don’t think you’re short–sighted.”
Avery smiled. “Mr. Lynch, one–tenth of Galecrest’s properties is too little.”
“It has nothing to do with me. It’s your business to divide it. Of course, all Galecrest’s properties will be yours if you’re confident to destroy Galecrest. But I don’t think you have the ability to do so. Otherwise, you wouldn’t come to me!” he said unceremoniously.
Hearing his words, the two couldn’t help but look at each other.
They originally wanted to negotiate with him. But they didn’t expect him to be so

Soon, the two nodded.
Avery took a deep breath, then stood up. “Mr. Lynch, we agree with your condition. I hope our cooperation will go smoothly!”
He said calmly, “Don’t worry. I always keep my promises.”
“In this case, we’ll leave first.”
They stood up and prepared to leave. After all, they got what they wanted. There was no point in continuing to stay here.
They walked out of Naporia Grand Hotel.
Aster complained, “He’s so greedy. I’ve never seen such a shameless person! He didn’t do anything but already planned to swallow Galecrest whole. That’s unreasonable!”
Avery smiled charmingly. “Mr. Stevens, please calm down. Caspian is right. As long as he destroys Galecrest, we’ll have endless resources in the future. When the time comes, we can
unite to expand our territory and overthrow him easily.”
His anger subsided a little. Then, they stared meaningfully at each other for a few seconds.
Skyfeather Pavilion and Azure Flames might fight each other if Caspian managed to destroy
Galecrest.
They knew this very well but didn’t point it out.
In the hotel, Sylvia said unhappily, “Caspian, Aster is too arrogant! He’s just a loser. I want to
teach him a lesson.”
“There’s no need to argue with him. Let them do whatever they want. We just need to reap the benefits.” Caspian waved.
His purpose was to restore the stability of the country. By getting rid of those evil forces, Diatorians would live peacefully.
