Chapter 427 - Chapter 427: Chapter 427: The Masked Elder (2/2)
If it had been someone else, they would have been conquered by such a look long ago.
But Chen Yu just kept his head down and ate on his own.
He knew very well that the old man in front of him had known all of his information for a long time, even the matter of the Snow and Ino brothers.
The reason he still maintained such a courteous attitude was nothing more than to offer a carrot before the stick.
Chen Yu didn’t beat around the bush after stuffing his mouth with two bites of mutton, he leaned back in his chair.
“Old sir, I’m here today to completely obliterate the Lakato Family, so you don’t need to be so polite to me.”
The masked old man’s body shuddered, and several attendants by his side also became vigilant, drawing the weapons from their waists.
“Haha, Mr. Chen is truly straightforward. Since that’s the case, I won’t hold back or hide anything! As long as you can help me remove the other powers within the family, from now on, the Lakato Family will hold you in the highest regard!”
Chen Yu was slightly stunned, immediately scanning everyone’s brain information with his system overlay.
Even before this, he knew that the Lakato Family was internally fragmented, each acting on their own.
But he did not expect them to be so scattered.
The old man in the mask had inherited the title of the Old Man of the Mountain many years ago.
Logically, his status should have been the most noble, and the entire Lakato Family should have heeded his command.
However, he didn’t expect the other factions within the family to be completely rebellious, exploiting many past grievances to gradually split away.
Take the brothers Snow and Ino, for example, their ancestors were originally from Europe and were slaves of William’s family.
Therefore, they had always wanted to swallow William’s family and return to Europe.
Yet another part of the family were direct descendants of the Old Man of the Mountain, who simply wanted to stay and manage their bastion here.
These two sides were already at loggerheads, and outside of them, many more factions had broken off.
This caused the already loose Lakato Family to become even more fragmented.
After obtaining this information, Chen Yu pondered for a moment and then readily agreed.
“I can help you, but what’s in it for me?”
The old man, brimming with excitement, directly took a sealed box from the side and placed it on the table.
“This is the most treasured possession of the first Old Man of the Mountain, said to be a gift from a deity.”
The moment the box opened, a dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire room, causing even Chen Yu to widen his eyes in astonishment.
“The Desert Pearl!” Jin Lingsu exclaimed in surprise.
This was a legendary priceless treasure.
It was said that Xu Liewu decided to send troops to annihilate the Old Man of the Mountain largely for this pearl, but in the end, he failed to find it.
Who would have thought it would have been passed down.
Chen Yu immediately analyzed the composition of the pearl and found that it contained a mixed element not found on Earth.
This object must have been a meteorite from outer space that fell to Earth, shaped and moved by the earth’s crust over the years until it formed such a pearl.
It could be said that such an object was unique in the entire world.
To take out something so precious as a reward showed the masked old man’s sincerity.
Chen Yu could not even think of a reason to refuse.
