banquet.

The place is magnificent and spacious, with crystal chandeliers overhead that cast a brilliant light. The walls and beams are adorned with exquisite carvings and luxurious decorations, all of which are expensive and accentuate the grandeur of the scene.

But now, at this very moment, something extremely strange and bizarre has happened at the banquet, making the host extremely embarrassed.

After the Dodge Family Head decisively agreed to cooperate with Ba Di, several of the more established nobles lost their footing and hurriedly stepped forward.

It was only then that Ba Di realized that Little Luther had made several foolproof preparations for this banquet he was attending. He needed Little Luthor, the mastermind behind the scenes, to show up and remain quiet, or perhaps flirt with a few women to warm his bed, or calmly observe the turbulent changes while enjoying the masterpiece he had created: the drama of splitting the Family.

Ba Di also readily realized that this Earth possessed Level 9 intelligence, making them arguably the most intelligent humans, all thanks to Lex Luthor's arrangements.

"It's really worth watching, even though he's just a child."

Ba Di smiled faintly, recalling the proud, smug smile on Little Luther's face as he got into the car.

It's just like a child showing off their grades to their parents.

Ba Di's lips curled into a smile; he was quite pleased with Luther.

Although he wasn't here, he had already done everything very well, perfectly.

They continuously unearthed some of the old noble members within the Family, Family members who greatly benefited and helped them in building their power. When they united, they resembled another Family, but of course, they were still different. With Ba Di as the leader, they respected his name and listened to his words without any room for negotiation, including the council.

"Mr. Ba Di, only 20% is left... the elderly in the family... is there any way to help them...?"

The Lan Dao Family Head, over fifty years old, was of robust build and wore round glasses, which gave him a refined and scholarly air.

He was the fourth to come out. He had been observing the situation, but when he saw the Dodge Family and Colvin families' profits being reduced, he couldn't stay still any longer and rushed out to try and salvage the situation, hoping to salvage some of the profits.

The most important thing is the lifespan of the father in the family. As for money, investing in Ba Di is simple for these old noble families. They can't wait for Ba Di to build the Cosmic Company Limited, occupy a spot, and start experimenting as soon as possible.

Therefore, the heads of several Family looked at Ba Di with expectant eyes. The initiative was entirely in Ba Di's hands, leaving no room for negotiation. Ba Di could choose not to cooperate with them, but he was willing to cooperate with many others. Although the ' Family ' of Metropolis were top-tier wealthy families, they were not the only ones. There were also other large groups that did not care about the ' Family '. Therefore, their passivity was understandable. They also understood this, which was why the Dodge Family and Colvin families, even after being cut by more than half, still wanted to cooperate with Ba Di.

However, it was clear that their aristocratic style displeased Ba Di. He had never seen such a cooperative approach that reduced their interests so much, and they were secretly suffering and feeling bitter.

This is fate! The onlookers were itching to know what kind of collaboration this was.

You old aristocrats, if you put your feet together, you could shake the Metropolis. And now, you're so polite, humble, even to the point of making people feel inferior, yet you insist on cooperating with Ba Di.

Everyone felt somewhat incredulous, staring at each other with strange looks, unable to guess what was going on. However, those present would only understand why these nobles were willing to cooperate with Ba Di in the future, when Ba Di's Cosmic Company Limited ruled the entire Metropolis and even the world, after sacrificing most of their interests.

Because they saw the future.

"From today onwards, the Dodge Family withdraws from the ' Family ' Alliance."

Suddenly, the Dodge Family Head, with a resolute expression, announced in front of everyone that he would stand with Ba Di, completely sever ties with the ' Family ' alliance, and side with him.

The shock, like an earthquake, reverberated through the banquet hall, leaving a deep impression on everyone present.

Some people voluntarily leave the Family! Although people come and go from the Family, it's only because their assets have declined and they're forced to leave. No one ever voluntarily gives up, leaves the Family, or leaves this alliance.

This voluntary withdrawal was like a bombshell dropped from nowhere, completely out of control, causing an uproar and sparking much discussion.

The most discussed topic is what exactly Ba Di possessed that enabled him to persuade the Dodge Family to withdraw from the Family Alliance.

This is a major event related to the earthquake.

Even the most shrewd and calculating Yada Edge couldn't help but be moved. This was the first time a noble had withdrawn from the Family Alliance, a momentous event that also proved his incompetence as the person in charge.

This is the first time in over two hundred years since the Family was founded that someone has voluntarily withdrawn from the Family.

His dark face was extremely ugly, and his eyes were fixed on Ba Di with a cold glint in them.

However, the earthquakes do not seem to be stopping so easily.

Following the announcement of the Dodge Family Head's withdrawal, the Colvin Family Head, a rigid, serious, and unsmiling nobleman, also announced his withdrawal, which triggered a chain reaction, with the noble family heads gathered around Ba Di making announcements one after another.

"The Colvin Family is withdrawing from the ' Family ' alliance."

The Lan Dao Family has withdrawn from the ' Family ' Alliance.

"The Lawrence Family is withdrawing from the ' Family ' alliance."

Several long-established nobles successively announced that they would resolutely stand on the same side as Ba Di, abandoning the ' Family ', a powerful clan that had been deeply rooted in the Metropolis for more than two hundred years.

The Family was completely torn apart.

Even the head of the Lan Dao Family, a refined middle-aged man with glasses, pulled out a member of the ' Family ' and brought him over to Ba Di's side, another one announcing his withdrawal from the Family.

The Lawrence Family, not wanting to lose, brought members from two other Family to Ba Di's side and quickly announced their withdrawal.

In an instant.

The Family split up.

Of the original seventeen Family, seven immediately sided with Ba Di.

Everyone at the banquet was stunned; the environment changed too quickly, leaving them bewildered.

What happened to this Family, which has always been an upper-class family, that has shaken Family apart like an earthquake?

If it was an earthquake, it was more like Ba Di stomped his foot, and then the whole Family was cracked, splitting into a divided situation.

It took everyone a long time to come to their senses before they exclaimed in surprise, staring at Ba Di in disbelief.

Ba Di remained calm and composed; his expression had not changed since he entered.

All of this revolves around this man, whose composed demeanor—always impeccably dressed in a white suit, tall and imposing yet exuding a refined and cultured air—has never changed.
