Chapter 764: 764 Take Action, Tumultuous Changes! [2nd Update]

From a logical perspective or a rule-based perspective, this person theoretically cannot exist.

Because the more people there are, the greater the suspicion, the Heaven-reaching Tower only needs to release a little benefit, and it can fracture the entire united organization.

Moreover, compared to the Heaven-reaching Tower, every faction seems much weaker.

Unless their fundamental interests are touched, who would choose to oppose the Heaven-reaching Tower?

"..."

Si Qingyin also fell silent, slowly clenching his fists.

He could be the one to walk among the various forces and express his honesty.

But even if all the people of the Si Family, thousands of them, cannot work in unison, why would other forces listen to him?

The Si Clan Patriarch sighed, his gaze gradually firming.

Regardless, he has to safeguard the Si Family.

At least, he must first reach a consensus with the Constans Family and then find a way to have the Rubinstein Family side with them.

As for the Neptune Family...

The Si Clan Patriarch also found it difficult.

The Neptune Family has not sent anyone to attend the Roundtable Conference for a long time, and the Sky Tower Master surprisingly has no objection.

Since he took the position of Clan Leader, he hasn’t seen a single person from the Neptune Family.

Where is this mysterious Neptune Family now?

The Si Clan Patriarch looked up, his gaze heavy as he stared at the tower reaching into the sky.

Resisting the Heaven-reaching Tower is a task far and arduous.

May there truly be someone who can stand up and lead them to fight against the Heaven-reaching Tower.

At this moment, the Si Housekeeper respectfully reported, "Patriarch, the eldest son, the two ladies from the Su Family have arrived."

"Please quickly invite them!" The Si Clan Patriarch suddenly recovered his senses, "Bring the prepared tea and snacks."

Returning to the Si Family, Ye Wanlan and Yue Zheng were treated as esteemed guests.

"Previously wronged the two, the responsibility is entirely mine." The Si Clan Patriarch bowed to them, "I do not seek your forgiveness, this is a small gift, I hope you will accept it with a smile."

Though he calls them modest gifts, in reality, they are all Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Especially the seeds of medicinal herbs in the front few boxes, many of which have become extinct in Shenzhou, monopolized by the Global Center.

"The Si Clan Patriarch cherishes his daughter, which is expected of a parent." Ye Wanlan said faintly, "I have experienced such matters, knowing this is indeed bizarre, even close kin cannot distinguish truth from falsehood."

"Indeed, ashamed." The Si Clan Patriarch sighed long, "Miss Su’s generosity is admirable; I shall make friends with you both, and if the Su Family encounters any trouble, feel free to find me, I will solve it within my capabilities."

Ye Wanlan smiled slightly, "Then I shall thank the Si Clan Patriarch in advance."

"Uh..." The Si Clan Patriarch felt inexplicably like he had fallen into some kind of trap and asked again, "Miss Su, can you discern the origin of the wandering soul within my daughter’s body?"

"To perform such tricks right under the Si Family’s nose, even deceiving the Supernatural Affairs Office." Ye Wanlan swirled the teacup in her hand, "The answer should already be within your heart, Si Clan Patriarch."

"Indeed it is the Heaven-reaching Tower!" Si Qingyin gritted his teeth, "Father, were it not for Miss Su’s assistance this time, we’d forever be kept in the dark, doting on an impostor."

The veins on the Si Clan Patriarch’s forehead throbbed, clearly enraged to the limit: "This Heaven-reaching Tower, too much bullying!"

Yue Zheng remained composed, maintaining a faint smile.

The matters of the Time Administration Bureau were unknown to almost everyone.

Using borrowed power to kill someone is a tactic fittingly applied here.

"Miss Su, thank you for today, yet my daughter still sleeps and cannot thank you in person." The Si Clan Patriarch subdued his anger, "Once she awakens, I will certainly bring her to visit the Su Family."

Ye Wanlan nodded and handed over a medicine bottle: "This medicine, crafted by the Taoist physician of Shenzhou, stabilizes the soul, and I ask Si Clan Patriarch to have Lady Si take one each day upon her awakening."

"Thank you, Miss Su!" The Si Clan Patriarch was overjoyed, "Your lifesaving grace, the Si Family will never forget!"

"We still have matters to attend to, hence shall not linger." Ye Wanlan rose, "Please directly send these medicinal herb seeds to the Su Family."

"Certainly, certainly." The Si Clan Patriarch also got up, "Qingyin, come help me see off the two Miss Su."

"Si Clan Patriarch previously said you can handle anything within your capabilities." Ye Wanlan spoke without turning back, "Then, do you have the ability or dare to oppose the Heaven-reaching Tower?"

"!"

The Si Clan Patriarch’s pupils suddenly contracted: "Miss Su?"

"No need for an answer; I already know the answer within your heart." Ye Wanlan suddenly laughed, "The mountain is high, the road is long, no need for further escort; we will meet again."

The two vanished from sight.

The Si Clan Patriarch still stood there dumbfounded.

"Father, her meaning is..." Si Qingyin hesitated, "Is the Su Family also planning to oppose the Heaven-reaching Tower?"

Previously, they had speculated that Shenzhou’s Battle of Ten Thousand Armies had connections with the Heaven-reaching Tower.

"I do not know." The Si Clan Patriarch muttered, "The Su Family remains a family of divine doctors; if aided by the other four families of Yunjing, perhaps it is possible."

However, the entangled conflicts among the Five Great Families of Yunjing are no less than the various forces within the Global Center.

Cooperation for mutual benefit remains too difficult a goal to achieve.

"Let’s still wait for Xiao Shu to awaken." The Si Clan Patriarch appeared more aged, "As long as you all are safe, my mind can rest."

**

The deep night was starless and moonless, a pitch-black void.

Yunjing, Lin Family.

All senior members and core disciples of the Lin Family were present, but everyone seemed a bit confused.

"Shiyuan." Lin Zhushuang rubbed her forehead, "It’s so late at night; what’s the reason for gathering everyone? Can’t it wait until morning?"

Discussing business in the deep night did not bother Lin Zhushuang, yet she was bothered by Lin Shiyuan sitting above her, representing an authoritative pressure over her.

Despite her talents not matching Lin Shiyuan’s, she is nevertheless the Supreme Elder.

"I summoned you all here today because I have an important announcement to make." Lin Shiyuan sat atop, with a casual demeanor, "At the rise of the next sun, the Lin Family will act against the Xiang, Su, Huo, and Rong Families."

With this statement, everyone was startled.

"If they are obedient, then they can be spared." Lin Shiyuan continued, "If not, simply eliminate them, understood?"

"..."

The entire hall was silent; everyone felt that Lin Shiyuan had gone mad, including Lin Zhushuang.

Not to mention why act against the other four families, even if it truly comes to breaking ties, how can the Lin Family single-handedly contend with the other four?

"Of course, I declared from the start; I am not negotiating with you." Lin Shiyuan’s eyes were icy, "I am informing you, from now on, I am the Patriarch of the Lin Family, is there any dissent?"
