SWNOVELS Chapter 95: Ask for It
Hearing this, Spencer's face lit up as he said, "Yes!"
He knew best how terrifying Jacob's strength was!
Because of this, Jacob stayed in the capital city for another day.
The next day, the other nine great families received the invitation and all came on time.
Now all the ten great families were at the Goldsmiths!
"Mr. Hill, I haven't seen you in a long time!"
"Mr. Lynch, how are you doing?"
"Mr. Black, I haven't seen you for a while. You've become a late-stage Virtuoso. Congratulations!"
The people from the nine families were very polite to each other.
However, they all came well prepared.
At the same time, the five families who had plotted to gobble up the Goldsmiths were not happy with the situation.
They could have quickly taken over the Goldsmiths' properties. When the other four families realized what had happened, there would be nothing left.
But now, the big cake would be divided equally among the nine families.
So, the five families were not very satisfied with the result.
However, no matter what, the Goldsmiths would be screwed today.
At the courtyard for guests in the Goldsmith's.
The people of the nine great families were enjoying their tea.
They took it easy!
They were very confident!
Since the Goldsmiths had invited them over, they must have decided to hand over some of their properties.
Only in this way could they protect their family.
Everyone was thinking the same.
Especially the five great families that had attacked the Goldsmiths. They were even more confident about it than others. However, the Goldsmiths might be disappointed.
A small portion of their properties would not get the other families all the way.
All the people here were up to no good.
Moreover, the nine great families shared a common goal.
When they worked together, nobody could compete with them in China.
Those secluded families never got involved in such things.
So, no one could stop them!
After today, there would only be nine great families in the capital city!
However, Vampire and Mantra didn't appear until everyone got a little impatient.
When everyone saw them, they thought to themselves that the show had begun.
The Goldsmiths probably only had these two Virtuosos.
Even if Howard recovered his strength and Jacob came here, the Goldsmiths would only die even if they dared to resist!
"Boyce, you're quite arrogant as a youngster!" The patriarch of the Blacks, Gary Black, sneered.
"Why are you inviting us here today?"
Everyone cut to the chase and went straight to the point.
Black runes flickered in Vampire's eyes as he said coldly, "To discuss compensation!"
Those people remained calm on the surface, but actually, they were very pleased.
The Goldsmiths was prepared to cede a portion of their benefits and ask them for mercy!
"Compensation? How are you gonna compensate us?" The patriarch of the Lynches, Colin Lynch, said.
"There are nine families here. I wonder how you will compensate us separately." The patriarch of the Hills, Caspar Hill, also looked at Vampire with interest.
The other families were all staring at Vampire and Mantra.
None of the patriarchs here were under the intermediate stage of Virtuoso.
In an instant, nine terrifying forces pressed down on Vampire and Mantra.
They were trying to intimidate Vampire and Mantra.
Spencer's face changed slightly as he faced the nine threatening forces.
However, Vampire remained indifferent. He said coldly, "I'm afraid that you've misunderstood me. It's not that the Goldsmiths compensate you, but that you guys compensate us for our loss!" "You will have to pay the price for attacking the Goldsmiths!"
After Vampire said that, the faces of the patriarchs of the nine great families all changed.
They looked at each other, and they were obviously thinking about the same thing.
"Did it hear it wrong?"
Where did the Goldsmiths' confidence come from?
Their Family Protection Matrix had been broken.
It was so easy for them to destroy the Goldsmiths.
They didn't even need any support from their families. The nine patriarchs were all Virtuosos. They could easily defeat the Goldsmiths on their own.
Although they were shocked, they once again looked at Vampire.
"Boyce, you are just a youngster. Even if you are gifted and become the patriarch of the Goldsmiths, that can't make you this arrogant. You're talking nonsense."
Boyce was indeed endowed with great martial talent.
However, he was not very strong and powerful now. So, they were not afraid of Boyce.
They were only afraid of Jamison.
"Don't makes troubles for yourselves by bragging and bouncing. If you are smart, give us all your properties and heritage. In this way, you can keep the Goldsmiths alive. Otherwise...." The patriarch of the Blacks, Gary, said coldly.
The Black family was one of the ten great families in the capital city.
The Goldsmith Group had a near-monopoly on the pharmaceutical industry.
It was worth tens of billions.
As an old family in Martial Arts, the Goldsmiths had fostered many Virtuosos.
Moreover, a Goldsmith had even entered the Divinity Phase. The Goldsmiths' wealth was not inferior to any other families present.
Even if they could not get all of them, a ninth would be enough to increase the strength of their families by thirty percent.
The patriarchs of the nine great families finally revealed their true goal.
Especially those five families that had been plotting for a long time.
Now they were still secretly communicating with each other. After taking down the Goldsmiths, they would not agree to split it equally.
The five of them were bound to take up more.
"Otherwise what?"
Suddenly, they heard a cold voice, which was loud and ear-piercing like a thunder!
The patriarchs instantly froze.
Their strength varied. But at the very least, they were at the intermediate stage.
Three were intermediate-stage Virtuosos and five at the late stage. There was even an old man who had been the patriarch for so long. He was Herbert Ziv, a top Virtuoso! Therefore, they could immediately tell the power in this voice.
And even they couldn't help but tremble!
If there was an ordinary person, his organs would explode and he would die!
The patriarchs immediately turned to look at the man!
A skinny young man dressed neatly was walking over.
A suggestion of amusement flickered in his eyes.
"Jacob!"
Everyone recognized him.
And they were all shocked.
Jacob was famous for his fight with Boyce at the junction of South and North Riverside Province.
He defeated the genius Boyce, who was the successor of the Goldsmiths. Then Boyce recognized Jacob as his family's head and the youngest Virtuoso in China.
It just shocked the whole Martial World.
It also attracted the attention of the ten great families in the capital city.
However, if Jacob only did those things, the patriarchs of those families would not spend so much time investigating him.
Most importantly, Jamison, a top Virtuoso who almost entered the Divinity Phase, led two other Virtuosos south. But in the end, they all died there.
Although there was no direct evidence that Jacob killed Jamison, everyone knew that Jacob had a hand in Jamison's death.
"How can you call me by my name?"
Jacob looked cold and stony as he snorted.
The he released a bit of his power at the Incarnation Phase.
The pressure that shrouded Vampire and Spencer instantly disappeared.
Now it was those patriarchs' turn to feel a strong sense of oppression.
Especially the three intermediate-stage Virtuosos. They almost couldn't breathe.
So, they were even more shocked and scared as they looked at Jacob.
Jacob was so terrifying!
What they thought was right. Jacob was at least a top Virtuoso.
"Well, you finally show up. Let me see if you're really the most talented young Virtuoso in the hundred years!"
Herbert shouted and rushed to Jacob. As the patriarch of the Zivs, he was also a top Virtuoso.
If he could kill Jacob, then the Zivs would get a bigger part of the Goldsmiths' properties.
The other patriarchs were unhappy to see Herbert take the initiative. But they could sit and wait for the result.
It was a good thing for them that Herbert tried first.
Then they could all see how strong Jacob was.
Once they defeated Jacob, the Goldsmiths would only get cut down like animals on the chopping block.
Herbert rushed to Jacob and threw the punch first.
Everyone could feel the Aerial Force on that punch. And they seemed to hear the roars of thunders and tigers as Herbert rushed to Jacob.
This punch almost compressed the air and tore it apart.
The green plants nearby couldn't hold the pressure and exploded one after another.
When other patriarchs saw how powerful Herbert's punch was, they became even more wary of him.
Herbert was indeed a top Virtuoso.
After getting shocked by Herbert, everyone looked at Jacob curiously.
Jacob seemed to be a top Virtuoso too. Could he take this punch from Herbert, who had been a top Virtuoso for so many years?
But Jacob just smiled.
"You're asking for it!"
His smile turned cruel.00‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
