520 Eradicate Seven Branches Part 5

The next day,

Alex and the others attacked the fifty and the sixth branches without much problem. No city lords or whatsoever, removing all potential unnecessary problems. It might be because these two city lords were female, they were not necessarily trapped inside that spider web.

Though they knew how annoying the reparation process after the brothel had gone, at the very least, it was not as troublesome as the problem brought by those people from Joyful Union Sect.

In this continent, which did not have any kingdoms, the city lords were usually not under someone else's jurisdiction. All the present city lords were coming from their predecessor, ruling the city for a few generations.

It could be said that the city lord's families in this continent were between first-rate and second-rate influence, but they were a lone influence. Even the first influence, such as Blackwade Clan or Joyful Union Sect, would not necessarily take these families under their banner.

The reason for that was simple, there would be a potential of rebellion if these families rose in power and other things. The best they could do was to make them completely loyal, whether using the full loyalty contract or seduction like Joyful Union Sect.

Unless they had legitimate reasons like the first or second branches, even Joyful Union Sect might not necessarily destroy these families unless they wanted to get many discontents not only from these families but also from the first-rate and second-rate influences.

Alex also knew this reason and took advantage of it but still kept Stina to watch over them, preparing for an attack.

It took them less than four hours to destroy the two branches, giving them more time to prepare for tomorrow. Unfortunately, he had yet to know what would await them inside the seventh branch, bringing a huge fight to his way as none of his spies currently watched the seventh branches. After all, the distance between them was far and not possible to travel within a day even for his spies.

He sighed, looking at the sky. The spirits looked at him as Anna walked to him, smiling gently. "Is there something bothering you?"

"No. I just realize the stronger you are, the harder we would fight. And when we decide to fight Joyful Union Sect, I a.s.sume the fight will be messier than that giant war a few years ago…" Alex closed his eyes.

"Then, are you going to stop here?" She asked.

"No way. I still need to find Alicia and Firia…" Alex paused a bit before adding another name, "And probably the system too."

"Battle against a sect like this only consists of less than a hundred thousand people… Nah, it is practically the same as the war on Willow Continent, just a bit harder. In the future, there might be a big war involving millions of people. At that time, will you still go to the war or let it be?"

"If they dare to hurt you and the others, I will destroy them even if I need to bathe this hand with the blood of millions of people. I am not afraid of killing as long as I can protect all of you. It's just... sometimes, it is tiring to fight like this." Alex let out a long sigh.

"It is certainly tiring, but no matter what path you choose, if you want to be better and better, there is no other way than this tiring process. It's repet.i.tion and repet.i.tion." Anna looked down, weighing something. "If you feel exhausted, come to me or any other else. We will support you like you protect us."

"Yeah." Alex nodded. "Anyway, we will destroy the last one tomorrow and hide until the auction."

"Will you call Nelson back?"

Alex was surprised by the question, looking at her with empty eyes for a while. "No. Nelson is on the Sacred Continent. If I really call him here, there are two ways he could go back there. First, he will need to cross the ocean between the two continents. Unfortunately, there is no s.h.i.+p that will cross this sea as it would contain many Saint Stage monsters.

"This leads to the second option, which is to go through Willow Continent, Nilis Continent, before going back to Sacred Continent. Well… there is the third option, which is to use Heavenly Continent as transit, but I doubt this route. It is said that the Heavenly Continent is very vast, making it hard to travel from one place to another.

"Anyway, whichever route, it will take at least 2-3 months. This will waste too much time since he is the only front we have in the Sacred Continent. That's why I don't consider him in my plan." Alex explained.

"You can a.s.sa.s.sinate those elders or the sect master or the mysterious person." Anna shrugged.

"Yeah. I have figured that will be how I act with Nelson's as my force. We might be able to scare them now but in the future? Unless we destroy them, there is no rea.s.surance.

"If I use Nelson, this will be the scenario. Their sect master and whoever that mysterious person will die. Alright, that is good. The next step will be the problem. First, if we decide to make war to raze them on the ground, people would think that we win just by using an a.s.sa.s.sin. It's not like I hate a.s.sa.s.sins, but if that is the case, they might not fear us and create more trouble behind us, whether it is revenge or whatever.

"The second option will be where we spare their life after killing their higher up. This… I don't think I need to explain what this scenario will bring to us in the future… After all, this scenario is the same as cutting John's little brother and sparing him for a while. They would come back with an army or even an a.s.sa.s.sin. What makes it worse is they might hire an a.s.sa.s.sin from Heavenly Continent.

"That's why I chose to raise Leoz's level to Martial Monarch to shut them up even if I need to use the hard way." Alex paused a bit before continuing, "Besides, there is no way I can let them off after attacking my friends and family."

The others blinked a few times, realizing how Alex had thought far ahead for this problem. There were still many uncertain possibilities, but this might be the best plan they could have at the moment.

"There is one more thing I need to tell you guys. With how hard the upcoming battle is, I want to try to mobilize the Blackwade Clan."

"Blackwade Clan? Wouldn't it attract the Fire G.o.d Clan?"

"I don't need many of them. One thousand or two thousand people are fine."

"The problem is how to convince them," Anna added.

"I have thought of it. As to prevent the Fire G.o.d Clan from knowing, I will just ask Senior Sister in the Auction. When she even does not have time to prepare much, the Fire G.o.d Clan also won't have enough time to go back and attack us." Alex shrugged.

"Alright."

"Well, I want to drink for tonight. Will you join me?" Alex walked away from the group, bringing out the wine he got from the system. It could be said this was also one of the ways to relax.

"Sure." Anna smiled, following him into the woods.

The other spirits also made their own preparations for tomorrow and the future war, wondering what they could do in the war.

…

Meanwhile, in the Blackwade Clan, specifically Song Yu's courtyard, a pet.i.te blonde girl was sitting above a pond, cultivating peacefully.

A sudden presence alarmed her.

"Who is it?!" She opened her eyes, rising to the air while taking out her sword. The shadow moved, making her turn to the side. "Who are you?"

A s.e.xy figure appeared from the shadow, revealing a beauty with pink hair. She looked like a human but released a presence that was far from it.

Song Yu frowned her eyebrows, preparing for a fight.

"Greetings. I have come here, bringing the word of my Master." The mysterious woman bowed her head politely.

"Your Master?" Song Yu was bewildered, wondering who her master was. She tried to recall everyone she knew, but none of them were capable of infiltrating the Blackwade Clan like this until a certain figure flashed in his mind. "Alexander Sir… No, Junior Brother?"

"Exactly so." She nodded with a smile.

"He… Is he alright?" She asked with a worried expression.

"Yes. Master is fine and currently has a busy schedule, so he can't meet you right now."

"I see. As long as he is fine, I have no problem." Song Yu smiled, "Tell me his words."

Nicole nodded, "Firstly, Master will meet you in the auction a few months from now. There, he will discuss something very important to you. I can't tell you what it is, but you need to prepare for the worst."

"Something very important?" Song Yu looked down, seeing her reflection on the water while thinking this something. "Well, I can't really guess what kind of important thing he wants to discuss. Anyway, I will become his a.s.sistant in the auction, so I guess we can talk there."

Nicole nodded. "On to the second matter, the Joyful Union Sect will surely buy Medicinal Pills from the Blackwade Clan. In ma.s.sive quant.i.ties at that."

She was taken aback, wondering why Alex said this. She thought no incident could cause the Joyful Union Sect to buy pills with large quant.i.ties. "That will be a good business for us. Maybe we can get half or even one million Spirit Gems in this transaction."

"That's what my Master has predicted. However, my Master said, 'you can't sell any pills to Joyful Union Sect no matter what." Nicole added, shooting down her excitement.

"Can't sell?" Song Yu furrowed her eyebrows, asking, "Why is that? This is a perfect opportunity to bleed that sect."

"You will know the reason in a few days," Nicole answered mysteriously before telling her Alex's offer. "If you don't sell the pill to them, My master will bring you three million Spirit Gems worth Medicinal ingredients. With his VIP card's power, he should have gotten another six hundred thousand Spirit Gems, but my Master wants to annul that for this transaction."

"!!!" Song You dropped her jaw to the ground. "Are you serious? Three billion Spirit Gems worth medicinal ingredients? That… is that even possible?"

"Yes. In my master's hand are five thousand rank 6 pills worth Medicinal Ingredients. With those ingredients and the price of Blackwade Clan has set, I am sure you can get a total profit of two million Spirit Gems. This will be much better than the deal with the Joyful Union Sect.

"Besides, the moment you know why my Master wants something like this, you will certainly not regret it." She nodded.

"But promise alone won't let me convince my family." Song Yu sighed.

"Don't worry. Someone will bring one million worth Medicinal Ingredients in a few days for our trust." She nodded.

"If that's so, then I can definitely convince them." Song Yu nodded confidently.

"That is good." She paused a bit, giving another warning to her before leaving. "This will be a crucial step for us. If the Blackwade Clan will continue selling the pills to them… or at least someone dares to smuggle the pills to them. Ignore this warning, no matter our past relations.h.i.+p, we will consider the Blackwade Clan as a hostile force and will prepare to remove this influence from this continent no matter the cost.

"If we truly arrive at that step, even if you escape back to the Heavenly Continent, the end result will be death. Heed this word. Even the Blackwade Clan can't defeat us." After giving the warning, she disappeared, sneaking out of the mansion.

That was a pretty bold claim from her, but she did not know why knowing Alex might be possible. At this time, she remembered a certain matter that she forgot to ask her grandfather.
