Chapter 1435 - 912: I Want Them All_2
Chapter 1435: Chapter 912: I Want Them All_2
The Saints from the vassal families and board members are fundamentally different compared to the Saints from the Bai Family’s main household.
Perhaps when facing an enemy of equal strength, or even a stronger adversary, they could unite around the Bai Family to resist and deter.
But in an instant, nearly wiping out the top echelons of the Bai Family, including the old ancestor!
To show blind loyalty at such a moment would be nothing but a fool’s dream.
Saints with Sacred Intent have a strong sense of autonomy, and even when the Bai Family was still around, they had enough respect and allure for them.
They even aimed to independently divide the forces under the Starshine Group into several factions.
On ordinary days, they also had to check and balance each other, facilitating the Bai Family’s command.
Then, with the size of the Starshine Group, they leveraged the entire State Capital to continue radiating outwards.
While the planting in the Development Zone could be done by the natives, the collection of Yuan Force had to be managed by a large number of the lowest-tier Pioneers, who also had their needs, from there cascading upwards layer by layer.
Even when the Bai Family held a Divine Weapon and their renowned old ancestor was the top expert in the state, there were still several other Saints, and wanting to command the entire state came with quite significant limitations, preventing it from becoming a monolithic authority.
As long as the Bai Family wanted to extract benefits from the State Capital, they inevitably had to have interest entanglements with other families and companies below them.
But all these were established on the fact that the Bai Family had deep roots in the State Capital, mindfully managing their resources and assets.
Now the Bai Family has been wiped out, and a formidable external force is suppressing the scene, and the situation is completely different!
If the outsider is lazy to manage and shows an ugly approach, who knows if they might resort to outright plunder!
Moreover, even if they were to unify the State Capital here, they might very well first select some as examples to intimidate others.
This poses no difficulty for the other party!
So at this moment, the various leaders in the State Capital, the once lofty Saints, and other characters who are at least at the catastrophe level, all did not dare to make a sound, each focusing intently.
Waiting for the disposal by this Upper God…
——
“Reporting to the Upper God, due to your efficient handling, the news hasn’t leaked from our four major Development Zones yet. Kawadi and I have already deployed personnel to return to the Development Zones and launched a surprise attack on the remaining members of the Bai Family. Currently, apart from a very few left in hiding, shielded by their two old servants, most have been brought under control.”
Landlord Wang, having embarked on the Divine Road as a formidable figure, stood at the very front of the hall, closest to the throne.
The corpulent Landlord Wang also reported their status with a deferential attitude.
Tao Yu presently faced some troubles heading to the Old Development Area of the State Capital.
Moreover, the State Capital houses four Development Zones, and apart from the New Development Zone, the other three are vastly larger than the Starshine Old Development Zone.
Even if Tao Yu were to go, the issue of insufficient manpower would still arise.
It’s precisely the right moment for Landlord Wang and Kawadi to manage the arrangements!
Numerous Saints of the Bai Family have already returned, and although other Saints still guard the Starshine Group, aside from two loyal servants who fight to the death, the rest realized the inevitable demise after time allowed them to communicate with the Current World.
With all Saints from the Wanhuo Chamber of Commerce and the Kavad Security Group returning to the Abyss, and Kawadi, the strongman embarking on the Divine Road, personally going forth, the situation was stabilized on a first-hand basis.
This ancient force with roots in the State Capital has a multifaceted influence.
“Oh, I didn’t expect two managed to escape, was it in the No.1 Development Zone?”
Tao Yu didn’t expect that even at this stage, the Bai Family would still have loyal servants willing to fight to the death, which came as a bit of a surprise.
“It was the No.1 Development Zone; previously it was the exclusive territory of the Starshine Group. We were detected due to sending too many through temporary teleportation, and the two old servants had no family concerns, having received substantial favors from the Bai Family. Originally, there was another one, who has been slain by Kawadi.”
Landlord Wang’s tone was exceedingly deferential.
“Not bad, minimizing the losses as much as possible…”
Even though the centipede dies without falling apart, Tao Yu initially waltzed over in person, opportunely exuding the aura of a Saintly Position, and utilized the authority of the Imaginer to have some influence.
But achieving the current state is already commendable.
Seamlessly taking over without any damage is still too difficult.
When a Saint departs, a casual strike could cause enormous destruction, and the distraction strikes from the two old servants of the Bai Family during their escape with the remaining members caused losses valued at least in the hundreds of billions of Yuan Force.
Over time, the losses may increase further.
But Tao Yu did not blame Landlord Wang and Kawadi for this; achieving what they did was already their utmost effort.
Now, a few stray individuals escaped, unable to stir any significant waves.
Even if there are subsequent disturbances, compared to the immediate benefits, they are entirely acceptable.
In this world, gains come with losses; everything has two sides. Tao Yu cannot be deterred by trivial fears.
“As promised earlier, my offer still stands. Just having entered White Star City, I indeed lack some trustworthy personnel at the moment…”
“Our Lei Family is willing to follow closely!”
“Our Sitter Family is willing to serve loyally!”
“We, Radiant Group…”
“…”
Almost as soon as Tao Yu gave a slight indication, various voices pledging allegiance immediately resonated in the scene one after another.
Landlord Wang also gratefully acknowledged Tao Yu’s promise with a smile.
