Chapter 579 Partnership
Incorporating and developing adamantium had always been part of Youngblood Group’s business plan, but unfortunately, the superalloy was far too precious for them to turn their aspiration into reality.
Fabian’s ability to handle adamantium wasn’t all that surprising, but it was shocking that he could use it to turn himself into a humanoid weapon. Everyone could only wonder if Lamont had plans to assign him to Pollerton.
Sure enough, Lamont burst out laughing. “Your punches are weak, Talbot. I can’t believe you have the nerves to say you’re in the Hexa Stella divine stage!”
“I’ve got to hand it to the Youngblood family for busting out something as precious as adamantium,” Talbot fumed. “However, even with the help of the superalloy, do you honestly think this kid will be able to take on Mortal Realm experts? Do you think he can measure up to Lord Campbell?”
So what if the superalloy is powerful? No battles have ever been determined by weapons alone. What matters the most is still the strength that the individual possesses! I may not have been able to break through the adamantium’s defense, but that doesn’t mean other Mortal Realm experts or Lord Campbell would fail at it too!
Having anticipated Talbot’s line of questioning, Lamont turned to Fabian. “Go on and show them what you’re made of.”
With that, Fabian instantly unleashed his War God force field, leaving Talbot stunned and speechless. Oh, my goodness. What an overwhelming force field Fabian has! He’s no ordinary man! Is he in the Mortal Realm divine stage? Wait a minute… No! He’s an Ether Realm expert!
Talbot gaped at Fabian like he was staring at a monster, to the point where he felt close to bursting a blood vessel.
In all honesty, he wasn’t even sure if the immense pressure was due to the Ether Realm force field or if he was boiling with jealousy. After all, how could anyone from the Campbell family not feel bitter about the Youngbloods outshining them?
Hamish, for example, was the youngest Mortal Realm expert in the Campbells. He had a bright future ahead of him and was undoubtedly the apple of his family’s eye.
Fabian was younger and more formidable than Hamish, yet the way the Youngblood family had treated him was utterly baffling.
Not only had they not kept him out of harm’s way, but they had also sent him to Pollerton to go up against Donald.
Then, the realization finally dawned on Talbot. Ah, there can only be one logical explanation for that… The Youngblood family must have someone who’s even more extraordinary than Fabian!
“Well? Does anyone else still doubt my words?” Lamont asked.
One thing was for sure—an Ether Realm expert imbued with the powers of adamantium was more than worthy of taking on the mighty Donald Campbell.
After a moment of hesitation, Talbot replied, “Since the Youngbloods are already poised to send Fabian to Pollerton, can’t you guys resolve everything on your own? Why do you need to drag the rest of the Ten Prestigious Families along?”
As it turned out, Talbot had asked the most pressing question that everyone else had in their minds.
The Youngblood family had already shown they were capable enough of going up against Donald, so why would they still need the Ten Prestigious Families? Wouldn’t that only burden them?
Lamont laughed. “Do you know why our family has flourished for a thousand years? It’s because we know better than to keep all the benefits to ourselves. Besides, I’m sure the market in Pollerton is big enough to accommodate all of us. In any case, the Youngblood family will deal with Lord Campbell, and I’d like the rest of you to carve up Pollerton’s market till it belongs to nobody else but the Ten Prestigious Families. That’s not too much to ask of you, is it?”
The Ten Prestigious Families had pulled out of Pollerton in the first place because of the invisible expert, but now that they had the Youngbloods as their anchor, how could they still turn their backs on such a prime area?
They couldn’t help but wonder if the Youngblood family had any other intentions, but at the same time, no one in their right mind would decline the partnership.
After leaving Trapezium Palace, the ten families promptly reappointed representatives to head to Pollerton, except this time, they chose members from the branch families who were easily replaceable.
By the time Jennifer woke up, it was already ten in the morning. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
She hurriedly made her way to the CEO’s office, only to find Donald casually sitting on the couch with a cup of coffee in one hand as he read the newspaper.
