Taking Over the Remaining Businesses

Lin Xuan simply had not expected that there would still be such blind fools within the Gale Family. When he had clearly walked down the street with Lin Chou and the other two, he had released a powerful aura.

Yet the Gale Family still dared to provoke Lin Chou and Zi Yan. One could only imagine how utterly blind they were.

After giving it some thought, though, Lin Xuan could understand. Although Zi Yan was younger, both she and Lin Chou possessed beauty capable of toppling kingdoms.

With two stunning beauties around, there would always be some lust-crazed fools harboring improper thoughts.

"Have someone take over the Gale Family's remaining businesses. They are my friends, so have them come find me here as well."

Lin Xuan glanced at the fat clan chief, who was waiting for his answer. After considering it, he spoke to him.

The fat clan chief nodded upon hearing Lin Xuan's words, then left the room.

Lin Xuan had no interest in the Gale Family's extermination. They were merely an insignificant clan.

What Lin Xuan cared about was the Xiao Clan. After all, Xiao Yan would be reborn in the Xiao Clan later on. If the Xiao Clan was gone, who knew where Xiao Yan would be reborn in the future?

As for Lin Chou, Lin Xuan would not care much about whatever she did. After all, she was the person he trusted most in this world.

After all, Lin Chou herself was the Vengeance Goddess. Back in the Marvel Universe, as the Vengeance Goddess, she had killed so many living beings that perhaps even she did not know the number. She had merely grown weary of solitude and turned herself into seven gems.

After being resurrected once, she had wanted to destroy a universe. However, she had failed, and her Soul Stone had instead been destroyed, leaving her unable to revive ever again.

It was not until Lin Xuan obtained the system and drew the Infinity Stones that he resurrected her once more, making her his caretaker. Gradually, Lin Chou's personality changed as well.

But to Lin Chou, Lin Xuan was now her everything. Whatever he wanted to do, she would help him without hesitation. Even if Lin Xuan asked her to destroy the Dou Qi Continent, Lin Chou would give it her all. Even if she herself had to be the price of destroying the Dou Qi Continent, she would not hesitate.

But Lin Chou knew that Lin Xuan could never make her do such a thing. After all, the two had spent seven years together.

Just imagine it: two people spending seven years together in a place with no one else around. What would their relationship become?

What was more, throughout those seven years, Lin Chou had taken care of Lin Xuan's daily life. Although Lin Xuan was often quite speechless toward her, she was still the person who understood him best and was closest to him in this world.

Therefore, Lin Xuan did not mind what Lin Chou did. He was merely left speechless sometimes.

More than ten minutes later, while Lin Xuan was swallowing pills in his room, he heard the voices of Lin Chou, Zi Yan, and Yue Mei.

Lin Xuan stopped taking pills and left his room. Once he reached the living room, he saw Lin Chou and Zi Yan seated in chairs, while Yue Mei poured each of them a cup of tea.

"We'll stay here for three more days before leaving. If you still want to go out and look around during these next few days, tell me in advance."

Lin Xuan looked at Lin Chou and Zi Yan as they drank their tea and spoke to them.

Lin Chou nodded upon hearing Lin Xuan's words. She did not wish to mention the Gale Family matter either.

After all, she knew that Lin Xuan should already know about it. Since he did not ask, she would not bring it up.

Zi Yan, however, could not help complaining to Lin Xuan helplessly after hearing his words.

"Ugh, we still have to stay in this boring place for three days? This is no fun at all."

Lin Xuan smiled helplessly when he heard Zi Yan's words, then took out several ice creams from the system backpack and handed one to each of the three women.

As for the ice cream, Lin Xuan had made it out of fruit juice and the Ice Ancestral Symbol's power when he was bored, then stored it all in the system backpack.

Other than living creatures, Lin Xuan's system backpack could store anything. Whatever condition an item was in when it was stored was exactly how it would be when taken out.

Of course, that Pet Egg was an exception. Since it had been obtained through the Sign-in System, it could be stored in the system backpack and could even be left to hatch slowly. Unfortunately, it had already been incubating for two years without showing the slightest sign of activity.

This made Lin Xuan wonder whether the Pet Egg was a dud. It had been incubating for so long, yet there had not been the slightest change.

Still, Lin Xuan merely thought about it. After all, it was something given by the system. Once it hatched, it would probably be at least some kind of Divine Beast. Otherwise, it would not deserve such a long incubation period.

After Zi Yan accepted the ice cream Lin Xuan handed her, she stopped complaining. After all, she quite liked the snacks Lin Xuan gave her.

At the same time, every force in Wutan City was investigating the Gale Family's situation. The Gale Family had been one of Wutan City's great clans, so after it was exterminated, every force sought information.

They all wanted a share of the spoils after the Dou Emperor experts left. After all, the fact that the Gale Family had become one of Wutan City's three great clans showed just how substantial its businesses were.

Unfortunately, before the people of those forces could even reach the Gale Family's territory, members of the Oba Family had already gone there. No one knew what they said to those Dou Emperor experts, but the experts allowed the Oba Family to take over the Gale Family's businesses.

This left many forces in Wutan City deeply dissatisfied, but none dared say anything openly. Those were Dou Emperor experts. They were merely minor Dou Masters—what did they amount to before Dou Emperors?

Within the Xiao Clan territory, several elders and the clan chief gathered in the council hall to discuss what had happened that day.

The Xiao Clan chief sat in the central seat of the council hall, silent as the expressions on his face constantly shifted.

"Clan Chief, now that the Gale Family has been exterminated and the Oba Family has taken over all its remaining businesses, the Oba Family's holdings are likely the largest in all of Wutan City. If they strike at us, I fear we..."

After glancing at everyone in the council hall, one of the elders cautiously spoke to the Xiao Clan chief.
