Chapter 1428: Chapter 909: Divine Power (Part 3)

The Bai Family patriarch possessed a Divine Weapon that resonated with him, or rather, it was through this Divine Weapon that he embarked on the Divine Road. His strength was unfathomable and had always been the driving force of the Bai Family, even monopolizing a Development Zone.

The strength of the Bai Family patriarch, with his Divine Weapon, was enough to slay other Honorable beings who had just stepped onto the Divine Road!

Yet now, this formidable Bai Family patriarch died so mysteriously, almost without any ability to resist!

The opponent was either at the pinnacle of the path to godhood or had already achieved a Divine Position!

Whether a Demigod, a False God, or a True God, these were not opponents that the two in the midst of a difficult exploration could contend with.

In the face of such an entity, even if they were leaders of cross-state-level powers, they could only come forward respectfully and pay their respects.

If it were said that the rapid sanctification opportunities of this individual might still attract attention from others.

But now, with the suspicion of having achieved a Divine Position, at the very least having reached the pinnacle of the Divine Road.

No one dares to have such prying thoughts anymore!

No matter the reason, the strength and status of the opponent are now staring them in the face, which is the reality!

The Bai Family patriarch also had the opportunity to become a god, but after facing a strong enemy and revealing his Divine Weapon years ago, no one had dared to scheme against him!

And by ruthlessly wiping out all current members of the Bai Family, the opponent clearly wasn’t a benevolent or lenient individual.

At this point, aside from bowing their heads and moving forward, there are no other options!

Although such existences rarely make moves in settled lands due to the constraints of the World Will, killing one is still killing, so killing several more seems inconsequential!

“Previously, the Bai Family colluded with the ‘Nine Heavens Divine Road’ to blockade Starshine City and the respective Development Zone, so we shall assist the Upper God in advancing together!”

“Indeed, the Upper God has come alone, perhaps lacking assistants, and that Bai Family sixth member has also embarked on the Divine Road, which is a bit troublesome, so we can assist the Upper God in resolving this matter.”

Both Landlord Wang and Kawadi almost simultaneously volunteered, wanting to join Tao Yu in slaying the enemy.

No matter the opponent’s intentions, the first move is to curry favor!

“No need, I have my own arrangements. This ‘Nine Heavens Divine Road’ still has some influence in the State Capital, handle it directly, and then assist my people in taking over the corresponding industries of the Bai Family. There shouldn’t be any problem with that, right?”

Tao Yu glanced at the two of them.

If he took the opportunity to drive them all away and monopolize all the resources of the State Capital, the annual profits might even double again!

However, Tao Yu was also a reasonable person, and since one can’t become fat in one bite, the Bai Family’s scale was too vast. No one knew how long it would take to digest what currently belonged to the Bai Family.

Maintaining the stability of the Development Zone, smoothly receiving the core industries, plus the revenue from taxes, being able to barely ensure that profits don’t fall is already good.

And the ‘Nine Heavens Divine Road’ was an organization that Bai Family’s sixth ‘Sword Lord’ had joined.

It originated from the Endless Sea, colossal with nine complete Divine Roads, but according to the Bai Family patriarch’s speculation, this organization supposedly harbors several false god paths within those nine complete Divine Roads.

It’s not even certain if there are complete roads to True Gods.

Actually, Tao Yu thinks his current raw strength might just be at the False God level, only elevated by [Divinity] to a higher echelon.

Perhaps only after truly becoming an ancient god can one be considered a genuine Divine Position!

The ‘Nine Heavens Divine Road’ organization’s main energy is still focused on competing in the Endless Sea. Arranging tentacles into settled lands mainly aims to scour for Yuan Force.

Even the ‘Assassin’s League’ is essentially a similar organization, with several ‘Gods of Assassination’ said to exist overseas in addition to its activities in settled lands.

It seemed the competition over there was too fierce, so they came here to covertly gather some resources…

“The gods and World Will have both formed an unwritten rule, that deities should avoid making moves in settled lands. The feeling of being surveilled by the World Will has indeed persisted, so this Bai Family sixth though part of the organization, consistently used its power for private affairs, so there’s relatively little need to worry about hostility and revenge…”

If one’s strength was insufficient, retaliation for the organization’s honor and reputation would indeed happen!

But if one were to decisively slay the Bai Family patriarch with the identity of a Divine Position, naturally, the issue wouldn’t be difficult to resolve.

Put simply, the strongest figure ‘Nine Heavens Divine Road’ could bring out in settled lands isn’t necessarily stronger than the Bai Family patriarch; as their main focus lay on the Endless Sea, the members here would instead worry more about their own safety…

Now, with no need to deliberately announce his identity publicly or purposely conceal it, those who need to know will know!

Meanwhile, on the other side, Landlord Wang and Kawadi, with only slight hesitation, both nodded simultaneously.

“Naturally no problem, the Bai Family patriarch first provoked the Upper God, so the Upper God’s actions are perfectly legitimate and justified!”

They didn’t want to overthink anything else, even if this was a special ruse by the Upper God.

The opponent could still make everyone accept it!

Since this figure allows both sides to cooperate a bit, it likely means their interests won’t be overly impacted…

And although Tao Yu isn’t particularly fascinated by these entanglements between forces, nor did he intentionally read into the thoughts of the two, even their passive thoughts captured by the authority of the Dream Weaver were enough to understand the general idea.

So, after the two agreed, Tao Yu calmly said,

“Since I’m letting you do the work, naturally there are benefits. The invisible forces of the Bai Family that are inconvenient to take over will be packaged and handed to you. Just bring out a few hundred billion Yuan Force to sweeten the deal for me…”

Tao Yu only seeks a commission, primarily from industries producing Yuan Force and tax revenue.

As for other aspects such as special resource distribution rights, some enclaves in outlying states, and some shares in other places, Tao Yu lacks the energy to manage them.

If the two families can handle it, then letting them take it is fine too!

Trading in the void, then cashing in with a sum of Yuan Force, and furthermore deifying his own Authorities would be quite nice too.

Though the cost-effectiveness of Authority isn’t as high as Talent, it’s significantly better than ordinary skills.

Even if it’s a bit expensive, the actual effects after deification might be nothing less than Talent!
