Chapter 1430 - 725: What Should We Do?
Pu City.
Beneath the blazing sun, the azure waves surged.
In the seas surrounding Pu City, an island that seemed abandoned for a long time mysteriously came to life with human presence.
Ancient structures were restored, and the grand architecture was renovated once more.
The majestic buildings, akin to the Imperial Elder Council, were once again infused with new vigor.
Even though everyone knew this splendor wouldn't last long, in half an hour, it might turn into ruins...
This was a duel arena!
A duel arena built especially for the Chosen Ones.
In earlier years, during the initial establishment of the alliance by the Old Alliance Leader Aquilino, conflicts and chaos were rampant among the Seven Cities, and even common interests and stances could not fully reconcile their blood feuds.
Thus, the blood feud judgment came into being.
Decades ago, people fought fiercely here, resolving many business disputes and ancestral grudges.
After numerous struggles, the situation gradually became clear, and as Aquilino's authority grew, the duel arena became less used.
Now, with Aquilino's death, the duel arena has returned to the negotiation table as an option, and this long-forgotten building has once again been brought to light.
Even if it's just a brief revival.
When Chosen Ones at the Rebirth Rank make a move, the scale is still manageable, but if those at the Transcend Rank truly clash, their fury could easily level the entire duel arena, no matter how much preparation was made in advance!
Everyone who steps here knows that after today, this place will probably be reduced to ruins.
The sea and airspace are now completely cleared, with no outsiders within tens of miles.
Only representatives from the Seven Cities and their servants.
On the newly refurbished stands, the Chopra and Sujano Families finally met again after the Old Alliance Leader's death.
The people are no longer the same, nor are the circumstances and settings. Discarding acting and disguises, two families that could barely share a room before are now in an irreconcilable conflict!
Yet, they still wore smiles on their faces.
"Seno Family Head, it's an honor to meet you."
The sunny and cheerful Minkler smiled slightly, and then sighed: "In the past, the Chopra and Sujano were both the backbone of the Seven Cities. Who would have thought the Sujano Family would stray so far astray, have you thought about how to explain to your ancestors?"
"Let's not talk about each other!"
Seno sneered indifferently: "I'd like to know, when the Chopra's foundation is destroyed, what will the Minkler Family Head have to say when meeting the ancestors in the afterlife?"
"No need to wait for the afterlife; they can be seen every day."
Minkler whistled, and the half-translucent Family God crawled up from the ground, raising their ferocious faces to look at Seno.
"Look, you can say whatever you want." Minkler gestured warmly, "Want me to call out Busstaman so you can catch up? My father often talks about Mr. Seno down there."
Minkler, you damn...
Seno's expression twitched for a moment, almost swearing out loud.
Swearing wouldn't help.
The Chopra's underworld family, truly threw their ancestors into the fire, didn't even need to dream, the deceased Family Heads became tools.
Even as twisted as the Sujano, they felt they couldn't stand these jerks.
Thinking of the family's orders and demands, Seno remained silent, merely casting a deep glance at the Family God beside Minkler, saying nothing.
Finally, his gaze fell behind Minkler.
In cropped trousers, flip-flops, a loud floral T-shirt, sunglasses, and a sun hat, looking like a tourist ready to pull out a smartphone for pictures was Ji Jue.
Completely out of place with everyone else!
What on earth are you doing here!
Minkler said, "Um, let me introduce to everyone..."
"No need for introductions."
Seno snorted, glancing at Ji Jue: "The Master of New Spring, who extended his reach to the Seven Cities from afar, is also widely renowned."
"Oh, really?"
Ji Jue smiled sunnily and informed him, "You should have a more firsthand experience."
"Oh, really?"
Seno coldly replied, digging a hole with his hand: "I don't remember, do you need to remind me?"
"Did you forget this?"
Amidst the gazes of everyone else, Ji Jue continued to smile: "Luo Island is our Coast's major client, how could they suddenly turn hostile and deny everything? Is our tricycle not useful? How about I send a few more farming tools?"
"No need!"
Seno laughed, unsure if it was out of admiration or being provoked: Spouting nonsense with your eyes open, you all in the Federation are the best at it, what you sent over were tricycles indeed!
On such occasions, naturally other family representatives were also present, some Family Heads came in person, others were heirs, each bringing servants and guards, making it quite lively, almost like a sports event.
There was no shortage of sarcastic comments or verbal battles.
However, before the situation was thoroughly disrupted by all parties, Fernan intervened.
"Let's keep unrelated remarks to a minimum here."
The acting speaker still looked lifeless, his eyes bloodshot, seemingly sleep-deprived, but those deep black pupils were imposing, without a hint of courtesy, he directly tossed away all the empty greetings.
That air of authority almost made one think Aquilino had come back to life and was once again reigning over the Seven Cities.
