Chapter 1371: Chapter 1368: The Five Great Clans (Part 1)
The car started.
In an instant, it left the neighborhood.
Lin Xi had no objections to this.
She was in such a hurry to come over, surely it had been very difficult.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t come over for a small matter.
In the car, Lin Xi did not tease again.
Shangguan Nishang wasn’t hiding anything, she directly recounted the events that had occurred recently.
Things weren’t particularly complicated.
The Shangguan family obtained so many treasures from the Secret Realm that they immediately became the target of many people’s covetous eyes.
These people were from both domestic and international origins.
However, intimidated by the Dragon King’s reputation, they didn’t act directly.
It was only when they found some reasons that they suddenly discovered the four elders of the Shangguan family had all broken through to the Innate stage.
It’s important to know that the four are not young.
Their talent isn’t that remarkable, so this was very strange.
Of course, if only one person broke through, that could be understood.
Like, the Shangguan family got lucky.
But when four of them break through consecutively, that’s indeed odd.
This made everyone continue to suspect it was because of the things obtained from the Secret Realm.
Which led to the breakthroughs.
Thinking of this, they became even more frantic.
It’s important to know that the people who came here almost all know there’s Innate above the King of Soldiers.
After all, within their families or forces, there’s Innate too.
They also know how difficult it is to break through from the King of Soldiers to Innate in this era.
Or, it’s basically impossible.
Unless, like mentioned before, they got lucky.
Clearly, this possibility is extremely low.
You could say, it’s impossible.
So, these people became frenzied.
With preparations made for so long, they found reasons.
But of course, they wouldn’t boldly go to the Shangguan family.
That would be suicidal.
After all, it’s Innate!
One Innate can take out all of them.
So, they informed their family members, explaining the situation.
If they could get part of the benefits from the Secret Realm, perhaps their family could produce Innate too.
Which would be crucial for the family.
Immediately, the Innates from their families nearly all came to Chuzhou City.
The Dragon King wanted to speak on this.
However, these people were all Huaxia people.
Foreigners didn’t dare get involved in these matters.
Otherwise, there was only a path to death.
In the end, the Dragon King didn’t intervene.
It wasn’t that he feared any of the various forces.
To him, he didn’t care about anyone.
It’s just that he cared about making Huaxia strong as a whole.
Rather than having good things clutched within one family, stored away.
This is of no use to the country.
After all, he knows there are Peak Soldier Kings in other families.
And the current Shangguan family doesn’t even have the strength of an Advanced Soldier King.
Considering some other factors, the Dragon King did nothing.
Of course, not intervening is one thing.
But he did say.
If due to this incident a family has someone break through to Innate.
From now on, they can’t do anything that harms Huaxia as a country.
And once there’s a crisis, they must absolutely stand up and support.
If not!
The Dragon King said, no matter what family or background, he would directly take action to destroy.
No one doubted the Dragon King’s words.
And at the same time, when Huaxia faces difficulties, they don’t need the Dragon King to say anything; they will all stand up.
After all, if there’s no skin, what can the hair attach to!
This principle, they understand.
So eventually, under pressure from multiple sides, the four elders couldn’t hold on anymore.
Even getting seriously injured in several surprise attacks.
Of course, they weren’t too worried about life or anything.
Because the Dragon King had stipulated, not one Innate could die.
Injuries are acceptable, but they must be recoverable without affecting future combat strength.
Despite the four elders not being young, compared to another group of Innates, they are still decades younger.
So, when that group reaches the limit of their lifespan, the four elders of the Shangguan family, barring accidents, will still be alive.
"Who are these people?" Lin Xi asked.
Since dealing with the four elders, the opposition needs to have at least four Innates.
To cause injury.
Earlier mentioned, it’s hard for Innate to cause injuries to Innate.
It’s just that the four elders hadn’t adapted to the Innate Realm yet.
Otherwise, give them a few months until they’re fully adapted, one-on-one, it would be very hard to injure them, even if their strength is a bit weaker.
Shangguan Nishang had a face full of worry, unlike her earlier demeanor looking for Lin Xi.
It seems probably because Bai Bing is present.
She didn’t want Bai Bing to see her this way.
Women!
Ha ha!
All are stubbornly vain.
"The Li family from Hong Kong, Chuan family from Sichuan Province, Yang family from Western Hunan, Chen family from Northwest, Xiong family from Northeast!" Shangguan Nishang said.
These families are considered part of that larger group of the strongest families.
Each family has Innates stationed.
Nationally, they’re considered top-tier families, comparable to the families from the capital.
Yet this time, no major family from the capital came.
It seems they’ve been warned by the Dragon King.
Of course, nationwide local forces aren’t limited to just these five, there are at least five more.
But they didn’t take action this time.
It’s not that they didn’t want to, it’s because so many had already come, they felt there was no gain to be had by coming.
Moreover, when the Shangguan family’s four Innates emerge, they might have exhausted all their resources.
Considering various factors, they decided not to act, but to watch.
If there indeed were benefits, they wouldn’t mind intervening.
After hearing this, Lin Xi shook her head.
Indicating, she hadn’t heard of them.
She just didn’t expect Huaxia to have so many families.
So it seems, Chuzhou City being such a big city, the biggest families here are nothing compared to those families.
After all, they don’t have Innates.
No Innates, and everything is decided.
Then within Chuzhou City, which family is the strongest?
Lin Xi thought for a moment.
But didn’t ask.
Surely, there must be.
No, this should have been the case before.
Recently, it’s definitely not anymore.
The Shangguan family certainly counts as the strongest around here now.
Because she just said those families, Lin Xi thinks their families’ Innates don’t exceed two.
In most cases, there’s only one.
Innate!
It’s been said, it’s not something commonly found on the street.
It’s important to know, Huaxia has nearly 1.4 billion people.
A hundred or so Innates isn’t excessive, right?
"So this time, did these five families bring a total of five Innates?" Lin Xi asked.
But there’s one thing he didn’t understand.
On the surface, these five surely wouldn’t injure the Shangguan family’s four elders, since Shangguan Nishang said they would visit tomorrow.
That is, they haven’t even gone over yet, just given pressure.
