Supreme Mars novel Chapter 779

With a straightened expression, Douglas said aloud, "Yes, Commander of Wyverns!"

So did Abraham, who was relieved that Leo did not seem to have any intention of holding him responsible.

Luckily, he didn't offend Leo too much, otherwise ......

Abraham no longer dared to think about it.

Leo narrowed his eyes and asked, "What does the Pompeii Imperial Family rely on to maintain a large clan, since they do not care about earthly affairs?"

In his view, whether it was the Valenham royal family or the Pompeii imperial family, they were all families made up of people.

As long as this is the case, one cannot avoid behaving like a human being, eating, drinking, playing and having fun.

Money is even more fundamental to the establishment of the clan.

Douglas sighed and said, "They do not care about earthly affairs, but we need to pay tribute of half of the year's profits to the Pompeii imperial family, and that is how they make a living."

"The Pompeii imperial clan's mission is to cultivate. As long as the martial art is strong, there is nothing you can't get. We, the royal clan, are just vassals of their imperial clan, surrendering money in exchange for their protection, and they will come out every once in a while to travel around the world."

After listening to Douglas’ introduction about the Pompeii imperial family, Leo dawned on him and probably understood somewhat.

In fact, ever since Angus first mentioned the Pompeii Imperial Clan, he had always had the illusion that it was as if they were a reclusive family that had left the world behind, not out in the world but still able to influence the outside world.

Just as the bridge used by the Pompeii imperial family to connect with the royal family ---- the Maiden is no match for the ordinary women.

The temperament is different.

The Pompeii imperial family, more like a transcendent ancient martial family, is dedicated to only the martial arts.

This brought Leo's thoughts back to a few years ago, when he was leading his army all the way north, when he suddenly encountered a white-robed old man who stopped the road and told Leo that this road was impassable, and that he should take a detour if he wanted to move forward.

At that time, the vast majority of people proposed to simply run over them, they had 100,000 people in the troop, who would they be afraid of?

But Leo chose to make an unprecedented detour, much to the bewilderment of many of his men.

The reason given by Leo at the time was that the old man was not an ordinary person and that ordinary guns and cannons would most likely be ineffective against him.

After hearing Leo's words, all the men were shocked, the guns were ineffective?

Is there really such a person in the world?

At that time, Leo had not yet become a Commander of Wyverns, and his cultivation was not as good as it is today. That old man guarding the mountain had put him under great pressure, and if he broke through, the result would most likely be a total loss of his army.

Now that he recalled the incident again, Leo realised that he might have come across an ancient martial arts family like the Pompeii Imperial Family at that moment.

Leo pondered for a long time, then suddenly said to Douglas, "Since this is the case, from now on, your Cohen Clan will not need to make contribution to the Pompeii Imperial Clan, in addition, disconnect all cooperation related to the Pompeii Imperial Clan. I will send you a list of new cooperation partners, you just give the projects to them."

At that, Abraham's face changed slightly and he was about to say no, but Douglas gave him a fierce glare and kicked him hard, signalling him to shut up.

He nodded with a smile, "Yes."

Leo had submitted, but Leo's eyes remained indifferent as he held out three fingers.

"Three days, I'll give you three days to finish, any problem?"

"No problem."

Douglas said respectfully, "The day after tomorrow is when the Pompeii Imperial Family will come to collect the annual fee, so before then, make sure that things are done."

Leo nodded and then left the Cohen's.

After Leo left, Douglas and Abraham immediately stood up.

Abraham's face changed wildly, with a look of horror and even some reproach as he looked towards Douglas.

"Master, do you know what you were saying? You'll get the whole Cohen Clan killed!"

"If we don't give the Cohen imperial family money, they'll be furious!"

However, in contrast, Douglas continued to look as normal and even had a somewhat indifferent expression as he asked rhetorically, "So what?"

"......"

Abraham was stunned and looked at Douglas incredulously.

His mouth opened, but not a word could come out.

It was clear that he had seen the family head's determination.

Outside, thunder still rolled in the sky and the wind roared. Douglas’ eyes stared deadly at the visions outside, and after a long silence, he suddenly sighed quietly.

"Abraham, what do you think of our Cohen family will be in the future?"

"The future?"

Abraham froze for a moment, glancing at the dark sky, the corners of his mouth bitter: "There is a imperial family up there, my Cohen Clan will never have a day to come out."

"Yes, there are imperial families up there, not only my Cohen Clan, but the other seven royal families, they are facing the same situation as us. They don't have a person who can lead, but our Cohen Clan does."

"Does the Pompeii imperial family have to be superior to others? They can concentrate on cultivating the martial arts to conquer and enslave other family powers?"

A series of rhetorical questions left Abraham speechless.

Perhaps in the eyes of some commoners in Valenham, they, the Valenham royal families are the gods of Valenham.

But only they know that there are people beyond them.

Douglas paused and asked, "Abraham, now it's time to take sides, who do you think is more powerful, the Commander of Wyverns in Pompeii or the Pompeii Imperial Family?"

"The imperial family for sure!"

Abraham said without thinking, "Not to mention the fact that there are so many experts inside the imperial family, it is protected by the War Department, and there is nothing the Commander of Wyverns can do about it."
