Chapter 428: Chapter 428: The Real Master

“Cooperation is fine, but I don’t want my identity exposed, and furthermore, I want all the core data of your Lakato Family.”

Chen Yu fiddled with the Desert Pearl, his words laced with amusement.

The conditions he proposed were extremely demanding, to the point of impossibility for any organization to hand over their core data, as it related to their very survival.

“Mr. Chen, isn’t this a bit excessive? The core data is…”

Before the masked elder could finish, Chen Yu tossed the pearl onto the table and turned to leave.

“Mr. Chen, please wait!” The masked elder became anxious.

His current situation was very bad, and without the intervention of a substantial external force, his life would likely be lost.

“You can have the data, but how can you guarantee my safety?”

The corner of Chen Yu’s mouth lifted slightly as he placed the wooden token given to him by the Heavenly Master on the table.

“Knights of the Round Table joined with the Xuanqing Sect, can they not guarantee your life?”

This statement had a double meaning, both a promise to the masked elder and a threat.

When the masked elder saw the wooden token, he froze completely.

He never dreamed that Chen Yu would also have this identity.

This moment left him with no room for choice.

Possessing membership in two super-organizations, eradicating the rest of the Lakato Family’s forces, or even wiping out their entire family, was not out of the question.

The sole purpose of the core data was to ensure that Chen Yu, in eliminating other forces, would not harm his own people by mistake.

“Mr. Chen is truly exceptional, I am saved!” The masked elder said no more, promptly handing over a USB drive to Chen Yu: “Here is all the data of the entire Lakato Family, including all of their networks of relations!”

Chen Yu didn’t hold back, taking it and plugging it into a nearby computer.

The Lakato Family was not only internally fragmented, but the various forces within it were also scattered all over the place.

Centered around Mount Augustus, within a two thousand kilometer radius of the desert, their powers were spread out.

Upon seeing these data, even Chen Yu was startled; he hadn’t expected the mighty Lakato Family to be in such a state internally.

Other families, no matter how fragmented internally, still have some level of cooperation between each other.

But the Lakato Family was purely a collection of independent forces, with the majority of smaller powers being extremely autonomous, almost separate entities from the family.

Chen Yu took a moment to steady his breath, realizing that eradicating these guys would be easier than he had imagined.

“Old gentleman, from what I see in the data, some places have merely twenty or thirty people. With your strength, you ought to be able to wipe them out.”

The masked elder sighed helplessly.

“I won’t hide from Mr. Chen, I really don’t have many men at my disposal, only a few personal guards.”

Chen Yu immediately understood that this old fellow before him was nothing more than a figurehead.

Bringing him in to help was partly to use his identity to pressure other forces.

On the other hand, it was also to get Chen Yu to eliminate the leaders of the other small forces.

Chen Yu scanned all the data from the computer into his brain and then stood up.

“There’s Black Hat Mountain about four hundred kilometers from here, probably the strongest force besides the Lakato Family’s main house. Let’s start with them.”

The masked old man was startled, the leader in charge of that location was named Ural, who was the Lakato Family’s top expert.

This guy’s body was inexplicably enormous, standing at a full three meters tall, with divine power that allowed him to shatter a small hill with a single punch.
