Chapter 1205: Huang Wuji's Sincerity
The hall was silent, no one spoke.
In the hall where a pin could be heard, after a quarter hour, Huang Wuji sighed, "Fine, fine. Now the Huang Family is under your control; you decide. If the Luo Family is destroyed, so be it. This time the Luo Family deserved it; if they hadn't been so overbearing, attacking my grandson, they wouldn't have been annihilated."
"I didn't expect the Luo Family to have this calamity; our two families were still on decent terms. Back in the day, when the old man of the Luo Family was still alive, he often roamed with me, sigh."
After the old man of the Luo Family died, the Luo Family changed. The marriage between the Huang Family and the Luo Family was originally a later arrangement, but Luo Feifei's motives were impure; the Luo side kept encroaching on the Huang Family. When the matter was exposed, they naturally faced this calamity.
Annihilation is annihilation; the matter is over, and saying more is useless.
He just didn't expect his own son to be annihilated so quickly; it truly was unexpected, but considering Huang Yan's character, it's understandable.
"Sigh." He sighed again, Huang Wuji steadied himself and asked, "Does your father know?"
Huang Yan laughed, "He doesn't know yet, but the grandson will tell him soon; I reckon he'll be furious."
Thinking of that scene made Huang Yan want to laugh; in his father's mind, Luo Feifei is more important than him, even the Luo Family outweighs him. He wonders if, after learning, his father will be provoked.
Huang Yan looks forward to that moment; he really wants to see his father's angry face.
Huang Wuji shrugged, "We'll set his matter aside for now. What do you plan to do about your master?"
He needs to know the concrete steps. Huang Wuji had a thought; this time he might go along, meet them, thank them in person, and see how many pills the transaction could yield.
Such a Pill Refiner should naturally be well acquainted and befriended; likewise, he must support his grandson Huang Yan, preventing him from becoming arrogant or ruining this bond.
"Grandfather, the grandson intends to use half of the Huang Family's savings to trade with the master. After I become the Huang Family Family Head, annihilate the Luo Family, I've obtained a large haul of good items, and recently I've also accumulated a batch, all thanks to the family disciples' support."
"Most of the good items were contributed by Huang Family disciples; precisely, they are exchanged for pills. Within the Huang Family we have a contribution area where anything—techniques, divine abilities, spirit medicines, or various refining materials—if valuable, can be exchanged for corresponding pills."
"You must have seen the Huang Family's changes, Grandfather?"
Everyone obtains pills through their own means; of course, there is a monthly quota, and high‑grade pills require personal effort.
This shift naturally fills the Huang Family with motivation; many disciples can exchange, which is very fair.
Huang Yan thus obtained many items, and with the Luo Family's batch, it's quite a lot.
From the Huang Family's internal treasures, he will take out half, having obtained permission from the second elder and third elder. This concerns a major matter for the Huang Family and is a high‑stakes gamble; at a time like this, how can one not risk a gamble?
Huang Wufeng and Huang Wuheng saw the benefit and naturally approved Huang Yan's move; they aren't foolish—keeping those items in the clan is wasteful and can't be turned into advantage. As long as the Huang Family's strength rises, whatever they want can be easily obtained.
In this world, strength is paramount; everything else is illusion.
No matter how much one accumulates, it ultimately becomes another family's asset. For example, when the Luo Family was annihilated this time, they hoarded many good items, which ended up benefiting them.
After the Luo Family's annihilation, many surrounding families eye the Huang Family; the Huang Family must quickly grow stronger and cannot sit idle.
If you don't annihilate them, they will annihilate you; it's the law of the strong preying on the weak.
"Half?" Huang Wuji lowered his head to ponder.
Huang Wuheng spoke, "Brother, I support this transaction. Our Huang Family's strength is severely lacking. This recent Huang Longji expedition caused us heavy losses and revealed our true power. We need a large amount of pills to cultivate Huang Family disciples."
"The last transaction by Yan'er brought back a huge batch of pills, restoring the Huang Family's vigor. This time, the trade is for the Huang Family's rise."
"This transaction brings us countless benefits and no harm."
Huang Wufeng added, "Brother, indeed, this transaction brings many benefits to the Huang Family; you must not stop it."
Huang Wuji smiled, "You're overthinking. I'm just worried whether half is enough. Should we bring more?"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
"What?"
Now Huang Yan and the two others were shocked, staring at Huang Wuji with astonished faces.
"Brother, you're just… brilliant," Huang Wufeng was at a loss for words, finally uttering the word 'brilliant'.
Huang Wuheng laughed loudly, "Brother, I truly didn't misjudge you."
Then he looked at Huang Yan and said, "Yan'er, look, I told you your grandfather will definitely agree; he'll even increase his support for you."
Huang Yan truly hadn't expected Grandfather Huang Wuji to be so daring, gambler‑like.
"Grandfather, half is enough; keep the other half for the next trade," Huang Yan voiced his thought. The next trade will also need preparation; after this trade, the next one may be far off, requiring careful collection and accumulation.
Huang Yan now has a plan: once the Huang Family's strength rises, they can act against the surrounding families, sweep them away, and secure the Huang Family's position.
The Tian Du Men and Mangshan Demon Palace are beyond the Huang Family's reach; dealing with smaller families is still easy.
Integrate these families: those who follow prosper, those who oppose perish. After full integration, we will expand outward.
Cangzhou is vast; we cannot be confined to the Mangshan Mountain Range.
"Fine, as you say, Yan'er. This time, Grandfather will go with you," Huang Wuji said, startling Huang Yan.
"Grandfather, you mean you will go with me to meet my master?" Huang Yan asked in surprise.
"Exactly. Such a massive material trade cannot go awry; Grandfather needs to protect you, and I'm also curious about your master and want to meet him."
Huang Wufeng and Huang Wuheng exchanged glances upon hearing this and said, "Brother, rest assured, the two of us will also go to protect Yan'er."
"The Huang Family will deploy at least half its people for protection, all stationed outside the Mangshan Mountain Range, allowing nothing to happen."
This matter is a major affair for the Huang Family; no mishap can occur.
The pills are too important to risk any problem.
"Since it's settled, let's set out," Huang Wuji urged.
This matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later.
"Okay, okay, okay," Huang Yan nodded dumbly and hurried to make arrangements.
