814 A White Token (1/2)
Chapter 814 – A White Token
The Lantern Festival was the day to celebrate family reunions, and it was the last day for the various schemers to prepare.
During the night, small white tokens totally shook up the guild circles of the nine imperial cities, creating a massive wave in the dark, trying to break apart the Shanhai Alliance-Guild Alliance.
The real goal was to use this chance to remove the outer barrier of Shanhai City.
Needless to say, the schemer was Silver Hand. In the China region, apart from the six members of the original Six Tyrants of Handan, Silver Hand had many other mysterious members.
These members were all hidden aristocratic families who did not come out of hiding easily.
Like the leader of Star Alliance from before, Xingzhe Zichen, as well as the hidden aristocratic family behind him, they were all members of Silver Hand.
However, due to Ouyang Shuo's interference, his attempt to come out on the world stage was not smooth.
Within the global landscape, China's foundation was the strongest, and they had the longest history on Earth. Hence, they had the highest number of hidden aristocratic families.
As for the specific number, apart from the founder of Silver Hand, no one was clear.
After Silver Hand listed Ouyang Shuo as very dangerous and activated term number 15, the ones who acted first were not the overseas members but the hidden members in China.
Today was the first stage of them pulling in the net.
The guild situation would totally change on this night.
...
Quanzhou, Streamer Headquarters.
In the leader's room, two men sat facing one another. The first was the sect leader of Streamer, Jun Yilao, and opposite him was a middle aged man. The middle aged man looked rather humble and simple, and his face was similar to Lao Yijun.
”Little Jun, 10 years have passed since that matter, yet you still cannot get over it?” The middle aged man picked up the tea cup, taking a sip. He focused on Jun Yilao with a merciful gaze.
”Do not use such eyes to look at me, disgusting!”
Jun Yilao's heart was obviously unsettled. Evidently, the person in front of him had a special relationship with him.
”You are my son.”
Jun Yilao said mockingly, ”Illegitimate or bastard? After you all coldly chased me out of my family, I no longer had any relationship with you all. All of you acted noble, following some dog sh*t sect rules and not revealing yourself to the world. Now what? You guys cannot stand the loneliness and want to jump out?”
”Earth is already gone, so what are we holding onto?” Loneliness flashed in the eyes of the middle aged man.
To hidden aristocratic families, to ask them to leave Earth, to leave China, to leave the roots their ancestors had placed down for them was undoubtedly a difficult choice, and it nearly destroyed their beliefs.
Some of these old people would rather die than migrate.
”If we move to Planet Hope, when we die, where will we be buried?” That was their question.
The middle aged man in front of him was brought up imbued with such ideals and naturally felt this pain.
Jun Yilao kept silent.
”Little Jun, the times have changed. A new era will be born, and it will belong to you people. We are old and slowly being eliminated.”
The middle aged man continued sincerely, ”The family has decided to come out and choose you as our heir, helping Streamer take down the Satellite City in Quanzhou.”
”I do not need it, I can settle it myself.”
Hearing these words, Jun Yilao's heart had a slight waver, but he did not back off in his words.
The middle aged man shook his head, ”You cannot.”
”Do not try to scare me.”
The middle aged man said, ”You know how powerful our family is. Quanzhou is where we took root and have run it for hundreds of years. Even in the game, more than 30% of the guild heads can be controlled by us. Little Jun, do you really think you will succeed if you go against us?”
Jun Yilao's expression froze up.
”Why?”
Jun Yilao naturally knew of the family's power, but how would they easily use this power?
”Because of this.”
The middle aged man took out a small white token that looked simple; it was made of silver. There were no flowery pattern, but it looked really special, and the tip of the token had a small palm.
When Jun Yilao saw this token, he was shocked, ”The silver order of the Silver House! Who are you going against?” After calming himself down, he asked uncertainly, ”Is it Shanhai City?”
”That's right.”
”Despicable! You all are actually acting against your own people.” Jun Yilao stood up in rage.
The middle aged man said, ”Own people? After the federation was formed, are there still enemies and allies?”
”If there isn't, what are you all holding onto? World unification?” Jun Yilao's face had an unspeakable mocking, ”In the end, it is still Shanhai City blocking your way.”
”Maybe you're right.”
The middle aged man did not try to argue. His son had already grown up, and he was already a strong power of China. However, anyone who stood so tall and high up definitely would not believe in ideals.
”Scoff!”
