Chapter 1652 - 1672: Trent Webb’s Request
Yusuf Zuck perceived the underlying implications of Trent Webb’s two proposed solutions, so he did not immediately make a decision but instead asked with a smile, "Which one does Uncle Trent hope I choose?"
Trent Webb knew that the Yusuf Zuck standing before him was a clever man, and he was aware that he couldn’t beat around the bush too much in front of Yusuf Zuck, so he took a deep breath and said, "Let me first talk about the pros and cons of the second option!"
"If we hand over the head, we will certainly receive more than ten Spirit Stones, which would be a tremendous benefit for our village and for you, Brother Hudson, because ten Spirit Stones is a considerable fortune, and Brother Hudson can enter the military, receive commendations, and be cultivated."
"However, there are also downsides," Trent Webb said. "Your background, the methods you practice, and your Magic Treasures will all be investigated, because whether you join the court or the military, transparency of identity is required, and both the military and the court are deep waters. By that time, there may be people coveting your Magic Treasures, or you might even face suppression or exclusion!"
"Additionally, once we report and hand over the head, although our Webb Family village might gain prestige, it will also bring unprecedented disasters and dangers, because other demons won’t spare our Webb Family village, and my Webb Family village will face relentless attacks."
"As for the first option, we do not report it, we bury it on the spot, as if nothing happened. This way, Brother Hudson, you can better protect your privacy and won’t end up in the deep waters of the military, and my Webb Family village may not necessarily draw further attention from the demons!"
"Of course, this choice might also have downsides for you, Brother Hudson, affecting your future, and we would also lose out on the wealth from those Spirit Stones!"
"Then let’s do as Uncle Trent suggests, I don’t mind," Yusuf Zuck replied with a smile.
"I haven’t finished," Trent Webb laughed awkwardly and continued, "In fact... in fact, I have my own little selfish motives!"
"Oh?" Yusuf Zuck squinted, indeed, this clan leader was a cunning old fox.
