Seeing the expression on the sect master's face, the Spiritual Saints in the vicinity of the Terry estate did not need to feel his ability to know he was angry.
But still, countless people in that area were feeling sick at the moment, barely able to keep their consciences in front of this man.
Even the patriarch Terry, who ran over there upon sensing such a thing, looked at Oswald seriously, feeling the mental weight of having to endure such a thing.
So how could the weaker ones there, far from his level 78, feel even remotely well?
"Sect Master, please calm down. Let's talk in my office." He said to Oswald while gesturing with one of his hands.
"Jeffrey, what kind of nonsense were you thinking? You think I don't know what happened, and I'm just going to let you get on with your plans?" He asked, speaking softly but having the full attention of the people in the surrounding area.
"Sect Master, Minos has played dirty against Lance. He is targeting our young master's reputation, so we can't just accept that." Jeffrey said this in a determined tone, knowing that this man in front of him was angry but that he had to defend his family.
That was not a mortal matter, so he would not back down without managing to at least lessen the damage to Lance's reputation this night.
"Targeting Lance's reputation?" Oswald said this, looking up with a strange smile on his face. "What kind of bullshit is that? You heard from my grandson a few days ago what he thinks of himself and his possibilities..."
"Then tell me something, Jeffrey. Minos, someone who doesn't respect even us elders, would pay any attention to Lance? That is simply absurd!"
Patriarch Terry clenched his fists upon hearing that, knowing it was true. But still, he could not give up.
Minos had not yet decided to become the master of this sect, so he had to do his best to put Lance in that position.
Even if Maisie was still there to compete for such a thing, times had changed, and perhaps if Lance competed with her again, he could get an advantage.
At the same time, even if Lance did not become the future sect master, performing well in a contest for the successor position in an organization was an important thing in itself. After all, in competing for such a thing, the person in question would make important contacts and alliances for his own family.
That is, even if Lance were to lose again to Maisie or even to Minos if he did well in the contest, the Terry family could gain something!
Furthermore, a new candidate from this family could have an easier time in the future, and the chances of this organization nurturing a new sect master would be greater!
Therefore, even though it was ridiculous, he had to side with Lance, his third-generation nephew.
"Still, sect master. Lance was humiliated and beaten for no reason. Minos manipulated him, and so this young man deserves at least a punishment!" He exclaimed as people in the surrounding area admired his determination to protect his own family.
Oswald closed his eyes, and his eyebrows drew together tightly. He muttered. "Are you going to cause all this trouble just because of a junior dispute? I don't know if I need to tell you this, but Minos has a very vindictive personality. So I'm afraid it's not a good idea to do that. What if he decides to 'take over' the sect? Are you prepared for the consequences?"
"The consequences?" That blond man's eyes narrowed.
Minos' grandfather then said. "It's hard to have to admit, but Minos will be stronger than that old man in the future. So he will most likely have the power and influence to do whatever he wants. In that case, do you want to antagonize him for so little? The boy is just doing business for the Black Plain and having fun..."
Oswald did not wait for Jeffrey's response and said. "Forget about that problem and let the young people settle their own affairs. If you get directly involved, what will you do if you lose to a 31-year-old lad? Will you hide under a rock?"
"Jeffrey, I am saying this to you because I am your friend."
That old fellow looked at Oswald and clenched his fists, knowing that, indeed, something like that would be highly embarrassing.
But before he could say anything, Minos' group arrived at that place, as they had been directed to do when they went out to look for the sect master's grandson.
"Sect master, we're back." One of them said, while the others looked at the surroundings and saw that the people from the Terry family from the previous situation were also there.
"Hmmm." Oswald nodded to that person as he massaged his beard and suppressed his innate ability.
Minos noticed this and saw the people in the area with expressions of relief on their faces. "That's his innate ability?" He muttered before looking at his mother and asking. "Is your innate ability the same as that old man's?"
Maisie smiled at Minos and said. "Yes, I inherited my father's powers. As for Angelica, she is like your grandmother. She doesn't have a combat ability."
"It is not for nothing that the people in this sect wanted you as his successor..." He commented, noting that she must be pretty strong given how good that skill was.
Oswald then said to his grandson. "Minos, promise the Terry family that you have no interest in damaging Lance's reputation and will not play dirty."
'I've done that already...' Minos closed his eyes and laughed. But then he said. "Well, I don't need to act to damage his reputation. He can do that on his own... But I promise not to act if he doesn't bother me."
The people in the Terry family did not like Minos' teasing, but they could only accept his promise since Oswald was there.
"And what will you do about young Lance's current condition?" The patriarch asked as he clenched his fists in anger. "You have seriously injured him."
Minos then replied. "What I did was little. You should teach him not to threaten strangers in the future. If there is a second time, he will not end up in one piece."
"What? How dare you?"
"Arrogance!"
"Sect Master, that child has no manners!"
Several people at the entrance of that family shouted in disgruntled tones.
Oswald then asked. "Threatening?"
"He threatened my family and I showed him a little bit of what happens to fools like him," Minos replied, causing his grandfather to look in Jeffrey's direction.
"I guess the situation is settled, huh?" Oswald said. "Lance provoked this himself, so there are no question marks here for you to seek punishment for Minos, Jeffrey."
"But..."
"Enough!" The sect master said aloud. "I will not get involved since this is a matter for the younger ones. Then do the same. End of business!"
And with that, the situation 'was' resolved just before the three relatives left that area together, leaving the angry patriarch Terry behind.
