Chapter 14 News of Buying a Life
The landscape of Wutan City was completely rewritten in this battle, and the Jialie family, having lost its Grand Master, could no longer rise to prominence.
The businesses belonging to the Jia Lie family were quickly swallowed up by the Xiao family.
Although the head of the Oba family, Obapa, is still alive, the loss of the Jialie family to provide some relief has made it difficult for them to contend with the Xiao family.
And after hearing the news of Galebi's death, he was filled with anxiety and fear.
"I never expected the Xiao family to actually go this far."
Obapra guessed that the funeral might be a trap, so he sent his younger brother Obapra in his place.
His idea was that even if O'Barry was attacked, he could retaliate together with the Gallie family and deal a significant blow to the Xiao family.
However, a few days later, the news reached his ears that the three elders of the Xiao family and Xiao Zhan himself were all unharmed.
The Jia family, consisting of three Grand Dou Masters, a Tier 3 Spirit Pet, and his younger brother O'Barry—a total of five Grand Dou Masters—was annihilated by the Xiao family.
At this point, Obapa knew that his chances were slim and that the Xiao family would come after they had completely absorbed the Jia Lie family.
After all, he, Obapa, was also involved in the assassination of Xiao Yan, and the sealing powder had already exposed his attitude.
Now, let alone protecting the Obama family's assets, even their own survival is in question.
"What should I do? What should I do?"
Obapa was filled with remorse. He had been foolish enough to believe Jia Liebi's words, and now he was completely at odds with the Xiao family. Even if he spent a lot of money, he probably wouldn't be able to salvage the relationship between the two families.
As for fleeing Wutan City with his treasures and assets, he had considered it.
But having left the place his ancestors had built up over decades, where could he go? And how long would it take to rebuild his power?
With that thought in mind, Obapa gritted his teeth and quickly made a decision.
Within his Obama family, there is a treasure that might be able to save his own life and that of the Obama family.
……
"Hahaha, now that Jia Liebi is dead, my Xiao family has already acquired 60% of the Jia Lie family's assets in just three days. The rest is only a matter of time."
Inside the family council hall, the three elders were all smiles. Xiao Yan's plan had been a great success, annihilating the strongest force of the Jia Lie family in one fell swoop.
Even though the Jialie family still has some Battle Masters, they are basically opportunists.
The Xiao family did not make things difficult for these people. Those who were willing to submit were allowed to submit, while those who were unwilling would have their properties acquired by the Xiao family.
As for the price, it is naturally an extremely low price. If the other party is unwilling, the Xiao family also has ways to make it impossible for them to continue operating.
After all, as a large family, it is natural to have some tough measures.
Many people value interests more, and it doesn't matter to them who is in charge. Moreover, once the Xiao family unifies Wutan City, their status may rise accordingly.
"It's a pity that my son Xiao Yan is considered 'dead' in Wutan City."
The only price to pay was Xiao Yan's death, because only this reason could justify turning this purge into a family feud.
But it doesn't really matter. Once the Xiao family stabilizes the situation in Wutan City in a few years, even if Xiao Yan comes back, no one can say anything.
The person involved, Xiao Yan, yawned. He realized that a battle between Great Dou Masters was not something he could get involved in, so in the end, Xiao Yan could only be an observer.
This was something that Xiao Yan found somewhat regrettable, as he didn't know how big the gap was between himself and a true Great Dou Master.
"Reporting, Patriarch, the head of the Oba family, Obapa, requests an audience!"
Just then, an unexpected visitor arrived, leaving everyone in the Xiao family puzzled.
"Obapa? He dares to come to my Xiao family at this hour? How many people did he bring?"
Xiao Zhan then pressed for an answer.
"Go home, Lord; only he came."
A person?
No one present understood what Obama was up to.
However, since the other party is only one person, they are definitely not here to declare war or cause trouble.
"Let him in. I want to see what he's up to."
Xiao Zhan signaled to the guards to let them pass. The Xiao family was currently focused on dealing with the remaining assets of the Jia Lie family and did not have time to deal with the Obama family.
I never expected the right person to appear at this critical juncture.
Soon, a middle-aged man slowly walked into the Xiao family's council hall and bowed to Xiao Zhan and the three elders.
"Clan Chief Xiao, how have you been?"
However, as soon as he entered, Obapa saw Xiao Yan sitting in the side seat, and the other party did not even try to avoid him.
Only then did Obappa realize that it was all a scheme orchestrated by the Xiao family, and that Galebi's death was a huge loss.
However, given the current situation, Obapa has no way to regret it. He came here today to secure a future for the Obapa family.
"Isn't this Patriarch Obama? What brings you to my Xiao family today?"
All the members of the Xiao family watched the other party warily, ready to be captured on the spot if this Obapa made any unusual move.
"Everyone, please don't get agitated. I, Obaba, am here to deliver a gift. As things stand, my Obaba family and the Garlie family have been utterly defeated."
Therefore, I intend to relinquish half of the Obama family's assets to the Xiao family. Even if we can only become a second-rate power in Wutan City, as long as the Obama family still exists, that will be enough.
Obaba's concessions were substantial, but they drew disdain from Xiao Zhan: "It sounds pretty good, but you need to know one thing, Oba family head: you simply don't have the resources to stand up to my Xiao family right now."
Even if you don't relinquish these properties, they will eventually belong to the Xiao family. So why should the Xiao family keep you in Wutan City?
Xiao Zhan's reaction was within Obaba's expectations, so he revealed his trump card.
"If the Xiao family intends to spare the Obama family, we will not only hand over the formula for the Qi-Sealing Powder, but also provide the coordinates of a treasure. Of course, if the Xiao family insists on destroying the Obama family, then the coordinates of this treasure will also be buried underground with me."
Obapa's words successfully attracted the attention of many members of the Xiao family present.
"You can fool children with your tricks, but if the coordinates of this treasure really existed, why would your Obama family have survived until now?"
Elder Xiao Lie snorted coldly, believing that Obaba was just bluffing.
Obapa remained calm, as everything was within his expectations.
"That's right, I know where this treasure is. The reason why my Obama family didn't go to retrieve it is because my Obama family simply doesn't have the strength to take it away. This treasure is called Strange Fire."
Strange Fire!
Obapa's words instantly widened the eyes of Xiao Zhan and the three elders, while many of the younger generation of the Xiao family had never heard of the existence of strange fire.
"My condition is the exact coordinates of this strange fire called the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire!"
