Chapter 2715: Chapter 2715: Eight Hundred Thousand Supreme Immortal Stones
"My lord... the Tremblay Family expresses deep gratitude for your immense grace and virtue!"
After receiving confirmation from the two Daai Law Golden Immortals in the family, the head of the Tremblay Family, Duncan Collins, immediately bowed and apologized to Wyatt Barnes, his expression filled with joy and excitement.
It seemed as though Wyatt Barnes was his savior, not the one who avenged his son’s death.
"Thank you, my lord!"
The elders of the Tremblay Family, following behind the family head, also expressed their gratitude to Wyatt Barnes, unable to conceal their excitement.
They clearly understood what the death of the two Daai Law Golden Immortals from the Spacewood Family meant.
It meant that the Spacewood Family could no longer stop the Tremblay Family’s advancement.
The Tremblay Family would become the new masters of Qilu City!
"But it seems I killed your son..."
Wyatt Barnes casually glanced at Duncan Collins, bringing up the old issue.
"My lord, you’ve granted our Tremblay Family the opportunity to unify Qilu City... not to mention one son. If my lord wishes, I can have more sons in the future, just for my lord to kill!"
In his excitement, Duncan Collins spoke out of turn.
At this moment, Duncan Collins wasn’t saying this merely out of fear of Wyatt Barnes and Leilany’s power; he was speaking his mind.
From the beginning, if his son’s death could exchange for the Tremblay Family’s unification of Qilu City,
he would have personally killed his son long ago!
In his eyes:
A lost son could be reborn.
But an opportunity to unify Qilu City, once lost, might never return.
In weighing the options, he knew what mattered more.
Hearing Duncan Collins’ words, Wyatt Barnes was momentarily speechless and did not dwell further on the matter, as he felt it unnecessary.
To Duncan Collins, family interests evidently outweighed everything else.
"However, by eliminating the two Daai Law Golden Immortals from the Spacewood Family for you, I’ve given your Tremblay Family the chance to unify Qilu City... Shouldn’t your Tremblay Family show some expression of gratitude?"
Wyatt Barnes squinted as he spoke.
"Of course, of course."
Duncan Collins responded quickly, glancing at his father, and together they looked toward the elder ancestor of their Tremblay Family.
"My lord, what would you like? As long as it’s within our Tremblay Family’s capabilities, we’ll fully cooperate!"
The elder ancestor of the Tremblay Family looked at Wyatt Barnes and spoke earnestly.
"First, I want the most comprehensive map your Tremblay Family can provide covering the largest area possible... the map must be detailed."
Wyatt Barnes said calmly.
Such a map might well be in the Storage Rings of those Spacewood Family people who died at his hands, but he was too lazy to find it.
"That’s a minor matter."
Originally thinking Wyatt Barnes had some difficult task for the Tremblay Family, the elder ancestor breathed a sigh of relief hearing this.
"My lord, is there anything else you require?"
The elder ancestor of the Tremblay Family continued to inquire.
"Well, there’s one more thing."
Wyatt Barnes nodded, his gaze sweeping over the Tremblay Family members before him, and he squinted as he said, "In three days, we two are preparing to depart... Three days later, I want to see one million supreme-grade Immortal Stones."
One million supreme-grade Immortal Stones!
At Wyatt Barnes’ words, the faces of the Tremblay Family members, from the elder ancestor down, changed dramatically.
"My lord..."
The elder ancestor of the Tremblay Family spoke with a bitter expression, "Our Tremblay Family can only come up with three to four hundred thousand supreme-grade Immortal Stones at most... If you give us some time, we might be able to gather five to six hundred thousand, but three days is too short."
"You’ve already said, this is your Tremblay Family... With the death of those two Daai Law Golden Immortals from the Spacewood Family, you’ll soon be able to consume the Spacewood Family. Then, won’t you be able to gather one million supreme-grade Immortal Stones?"
Wyatt Barnes responded calmly.
"My lord, you might not know."
The elder ancestor of the Tremblay Family took a deep breath and gathered his courage to say, "In families like ours and the Spacewood Family, at least half of the family’s tangible wealth is held by the two Daai Law Golden Immortals... and since you’ve killed those two from the Spacewood Family, I assume their Storage Rings are now in your possession."
"So now, nearly half of the Spacewood Family’s tangible wealth is in your hands, my lord."
The elder ancestor explained.
"Eight hundred thousand supreme-grade Immortal Stones!"
After hearing the elder ancestor’s words, Wyatt Barnes impatiently waved his hand, "Eight hundred thousand supreme-grade Immortal Stones, in three days, I want to see them... if I don’t, I don’t mind sending your Tremblay Family’s two Daai Law Golden Immortals to join those two from the Spacewood Family!"
After speaking, he did not wait to see the Tremblay Family’s reaction to the horror-stricken expressions on their faces and instead turned to Leilany, with the impatience on his face replaced by a broad smile, "Leilany, let’s go."
"Yes."
Leilany responded sweetly and then walked away with Wyatt Barnes at a leisurely pace.
The backs of Wyatt Barnes and Leilany disappeared at a steady pace before the eyes of the Tremblay Family members.
And the Tremblay Family members watched them leave, not daring to utter another word throughout the process.
Because they all understood:
The purple-clad youth had already made his greatest concession!
"Who... who exactly are they?!"
Only after the silhouettes of Wyatt Barnes and Leilany vanished from sight did the previous head of the Tremblay Family mutter a question in low apprehension.
"I don’t know."
Hearing his father’s question, Duncan Collins shook his head, "They should be outsiders, perhaps visiting our Spacewood-Tremblay City for the first time."
"Hmph! From today onwards... there will be no more Spacewood-Tremblay City! There will only be ’Tremblay City’!"
The Tremblay Family Elder Ancestor snorted coldly, correcting him.
Tremblay City!
And as the words of the Tremblay Family Elder Ancestor fell, the eyes of the Tremblay Family group immediately lit up again, like brilliant stars in the night sky, magnificent and dazzling.
"Elder Ancestor... In three days, can we really gather those 800,000 supreme immortal stones?"
In his excitement, Duncan Collins couldn’t help but bring a splash of cold reality to the Tremblay Family group.
"Whether we can gather them or not, we must! Didn’t you see the attitude of that lord just now?"
The Tremblay Family Elder Ancestor said in a deep voice.
Soon after, the Tremblay Family Elder Ancestor turned to the previous patriarch of the Tremblay Family, issuing orders immediately: "Jon Collins, after we take over the Spacewood Family later, visit the nearby cities... Find families and sects that cooperate with our Tremblay Family, borrow as many supreme immortal stones as possible!"
"Yes, Elder Ancestor."
The previous patriarch of the Tremblay Family respectfully complied.
Although he is also a Daai Law Golden Immortal of the Heavenly Realm, the power of this Elder Ancestor is far superior to his.
Moreover, the Elder Ancestor’s seniority is much higher than his.
Therefore, he doesn’t dare to show off before him.
Soon after, the Tremblay Family group charged like starving wolves into the Spacewood Family’s residence.
The Spacewood Family, having lost its two strongest Daai Law Golden Immortals, had the rest of its high ranks facing the Tremblay Family led by two Heavenly Realm Daai Law Golden Immortals like mere clay chickens and pottery dogs, unable to withstand a single blow!
Soon, all beings above the level of Daai Law Golden Immortal within the Spacewood Family’s residence were killed.
On the Tremblay Family’s side, there were no casualties.
In one day, the Spacewood Family, which once rivaled the Tremblay Family, was swallowed up by the Tremblay Family without a single soldier lost!
Once this news spread, it caused a sensation throughout Spacewood-Tremblay City.
The next day, the Tremblay Family issued a statement:
From today onwards, Spacewood-Tremblay City will be renamed ’Tremblay City.’
Regarding this, no one in Spacewood-Tremblay City dared to speak against it.
"The action is quite swift... let’s just hope they can deliver those 800,000 supreme immortal stones on time."
In a private room close to the hall in a Tremblay City tavern, Wyatt Barnes sat aside, listening to the clamor and discussions coming from the hall, and couldn’t help but mumble softly.
Opposite Wyatt, Leilany, having removed her veil, was devouring the dishes on the table without any form.
Though Leilany currently lacked any form, she was still breathtakingly beautiful and flawless from every angle... even Wyatt, whose heart was as calm as still water, had his gaze occasionally linger on her and found it hard to look away.
"Brother Wyatt, I’m full."
About an hour later, Leilany finally wiped the grease off her mouth satisfied, smiling at Wyatt she said, "The food outside is so delicious... From now on, Brother Wyatt, will you take me out to eat every day?"
"Sure... as long as you’re happy, Leilany."
Wyatt nodded with a smile.
He wasn’t surprised by Leilany’s change in how she addressed him.
Yesterday, after leaving the Spacewood Family’s residence, he took Leilany around Spacewood-Tremblay City, buying her many things.
During the stroll, they encountered a few clingy couples, and after hearing those couples’ affectionate nicknames for each other, Leilany started changing how she addressed Wyatt, from calling his name ’Wyatt Barnes’ to ’Brother Wyatt.’
Of course, Wyatt knew that this change in addressing didn’t mean much.
Leilany was still the same Leilany.
When it comes to matters of affection, Leilany is both clueless and indifferent.
She is as pure as a blank sheet of paper.
Even though some colors may now be tainting the white paper, the majority remains dazzlingly white.
"Since you’re full... shall we go for another stroll?"
Wyatt asked with a smile.
"Sure, sure... Yesterday, there were so many things I wanted to buy but haven’t yet."
Leilany nodded enthusiastically like a pecking chick.
After taking Leilany on a three-day stroll around the newly named ’Tremblay City,’ Wyatt appeared with her leisurely at the gates of the Tremblay Family residence.
"Greetings to the two esteemed."
"Greetings to the two esteemed."
...
As Wyatt and Leilany arrived, the high ranks of the Tremblay Family, whom Wyatt had seen three days ago above the Spacewood Family residence, were all present without exception, respectfully greeting them in deference.
"Have you prepared the items?"
Wyatt’s gaze fell on the Tremblay Family Elder Ancestor.
Three days ago, he had realized:
The Tremblay Family is led by this elder.
"Esteemed, everything is ready."
The Tremblay Family Elder Ancestor responded respectfully, as a Storage Ring appeared out of thin air in his hand.
