Volume 2 The Seraphic Incident - The Demon Capital Siren 48.The scorching sun is shining, and the heart is not hot
Last night, after those arrogant people who had no one in their eyes left a war letter at the door of Dai's house, the high-ranking personnel of the Dai family in the sirens gathered in the residence of the eighth district to make a reminiscence.
The theme of the conference is also very simple. This time, is the Dai family going or staying, fighting or retreating?
Including the current head of the Dai family, a total of fifteen people attended the meeting. While the three elders of the ninth-order family were silent for the time being, six members of the council who were in charge of the real power of the Dai family said that they advocated retreating to the south; three said that they must not retreat; and the remaining two were waiting for Dai Wenbai's mouth.
Although he was sitting on the main seat, Dai Wenbai was not majestic at all. He has a strong scholarly smell in him, and even though he has weakened a lot after becoming the head of the family, he still sits here like a little secretary.
Ke was able to lead the Dai family in the sirens as a non-cultivator until now, and everyone present had already recognized his strength.
After talking nonsense with each other for a long time, the audience fell silent.
Sitting on the main seat, Dai Wenbai frowned. After rubbing it for a long time, I didn't see him being able to relax. This is his old problem, as soon as he feels the pressure, his body will start to tense. Even now, it's very different from a few years ago. But the problems they face are even more severe.
The auction is approaching, and in addition to the few lots that can be taken on the main role, there are other second-class treasures. Because of the 15 district auctions, they are held up to five times a year. In the first-class area, those new families who are not very strong in the family have long been aiming at this auction, intending to auction the treasures that the family needs at a lower price.
Therefore, the Dai family, which has declined to this point, is the prey of these jackals.
In fact, I have already made up my mind for a long time, but I am just missing the last bit of courage. Dai Wenbai traced his memory, what is it that has supported him to get to the present in this cannibalistic siren city?
"Click. Dai Wenbai's finger tapped on the table, adding a little life to this quiet space. He opened his mouth and asked, "If the Dai family loses its foundation in the sirens and retreats to the south, what will become of our cloud beast trafficking?"
"Yes, of course...... You will lose most of your sales channels. β
"After losing most of the sales channels, what is left of our Dai family?"
There was silence at the "......" banquet.
"Most of the Dai family's economic chain relies on the cloud beasts sold in the sirens. Without sales channels, the cloud beast cannot be sold, and the cloud beast merchants who cooperate with us will not continue to inject funds into the Dai family. Dai Wenbai said the key: "Without money and power, the Dai family will really be completely finished." So, can we get back?"
"......" Everyone else was looking at him, and the few people in the council who advocated regression did not speak.
In fact, they know in their hearts that retreat is a slow death. However, the Dai family was no longer able to fight, and they couldn't let the three ninth-order elders send them to death.
Luo Ruixiu suddenly asked, "You say this, is there any solution?"
"Well, there's a solution. After Dai Wenbai said this, he could clearly see the sudden light in their eyes.
β...... How?" said Rorich, "These people in the Sirens will do their best to help you." β
They all know how difficult it is to be able to stay in the Sirens.
Dai Wenbai smiled: "As long as the Dai family has that luck, we will definitely do it." β
Therefore, after the Dai family tried their best to prepare all night, there will be the current scene.
In front of the gate of the Yuan family's house, most of the street was occupied. From one end of the street to the other end of the street, at a glance, there was a row of high-level cloud beasts that were usually difficult to see any one, their sharp claws, strong size, all kinds of magic power surging around them, and the seventh- and eighth-order cultivators who controlled them, which made people notice some sad emotions on their faces while being shocked by this formation.
Among these cloud beasts, there is a total of one eighth-order and sixty-one seventh-order. They are all like the red-scaled earth, with a mind that is no different from that of ordinary people. Many of them were the companions of the cultivators who died in the Dai family catastrophe a few years ago. Now, when facing the catastrophe of the Dai family again, they gathered here, just to make the Dai family more vibrant.
The sun is superb, and it doesn't burn the heart.
Dai Wenbai stood in front of the gate, his face already sweaty. The wind dragon cub behind him, Xiao Honey, saw that he had already entered the juvenile body, and immediately raised his head to block the vicious sunlight a little for this weak man.
He's been waiting here for almost three hours.
It was a little dark in front of me, and it seemed that I was suffering from heat stroke. Dai Wenbai didn't know how he could hold on until now.
"Click. The door in front of him, which represented the vitality of the Dai family, opened, and the butler smiled and made a gesture of invitation. "The head of the house, please. However, only one person is allowed to enter. β
Little Honey let out a low whimper, and Dai Wenbai patted its long neck to silence it. "I'm fine. β
Following the housekeeper and bypassing the front yard for a short distance, Dai Wenbai came to the living room. The man who is not tall, not strong, and not outstanding in appearance sits on the sofa in the center, which makes people unable to take their eyes off him the moment they see him.
"I have heard for a long time that the head of the Dai family is an ordinary person. I didn't expect it, but it really is. The man was the first to speak, his voice slightly muffled, and he couldn't hear any other emotion.
ββThis is the only third-order powerhouse above the Fifth Heaven in Siren City, Yuan Panqiu. Dai Wenbai took a breath, the air conditioner in the guest room was really cold.
The head of the Dai family, who was stared at by Yuan Panqiu with ant-like eyes, and did not have the slightest cultivation on his body, saluted respectfully and said slowly: "The name of the wind dragon cub is Little Honey, which is a gift we offer to you, as a little sincerity for the Dai family to visit." β
Yuan Panqiu said bluntly: "Your Dai family, do you want to come to me?"
"Nope. The person I'm looking for is Lord Bingxue. The other party didn't mean to talk crookedly nonsense, so Dai Wenbai followed Yuan Panqiu's attitude and said his intentions bluntly.
"You're really calculating. Yuan Panqiu snorted coldly: "Do you think that I won't kill you here directly and swallow these cloud beasts alone?"
"You won't. Because Lord Bingxue is now in the house. Dai Wenbai weighed what he should say in his heart, and at the same time looked at Shangyuan Panqiu as if he could crush him. "I think my voice, he can hear it completely. As long as he is willing to take over the entire Sirendai family, I will be fine. β
