Chapter 714 - Song Jiaoren's Plan

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Blackwade Clan's mansion, three people were discussing a matter of importance in a quiet room.

"I have confirmed everything, and it's indeed his Supreme VIP Card." Song Jiaoren nodded with a solemn look. "What are we going to do now?"

"If it's truly a Supreme VIP Card, it will be troublesome." Song Ping, Song Jiaoren's father, nodded his head while stroking his chin.

"You two haven't realized the true terror of the Supreme VIP Card. My Grandfather or your great-great-grandfather was sent by the family to open the branch in this place. I often heard the stories when he was there. It was around five or six thousand years ago, I guess. There was a man that helped the Blackwade Clan to rise." Their grandfather, the grand elder, said in a pacifying tone.

"Why do you talk about this, Grandfather?"

"Because that person had destroyed many worlds. Take our world as an example, the moment he came to this type of world, billions of people would lose their lives. He didn't know many things about this person, except his name… Alexander Sirius."

"!!!" Song Jiaoren and Song Ping looked at each other, thinking the same thing. "Do you think they are the same person? But the person in your story should be a God Rank Expert… Not, a Martial Monarch."

"That's right. It might be a coincidence."

The two agreed… No, the two refused to believe such an existence was Alex.

"I am also not sure myself, but there is no assurance that someone can change their name for their card…" He sighed and looked at the two mysteriously.

"What should we do, Grandfather?" Song Jiaoren asked while sweating. Although his grandfather didn't explain everything, he could somehow understand the severances of this matter.

"It's to help him, of course. You want to go to the Main Clan, right? I know that you can do that after you reach God Stage, but you might not have a high position. It's better if he nominates you and goes to the main clan before reaching God Stage. You can grow more that way. In any case, no Supreme VIP Card holder would have a low status. After all, who can participate in the life and death of the main clan where there are so many experts? Even if the card is his wife's card, his status is still far more amazing. That's why if you really want to go, I won't have any qualms."

Song Jiaoren looked down and fell into deep thought. On the other hand, Song Ping patted his son's head. "I have seen the report about this Alexander Sirius. It's not like he is a fool or something, so I think it's a good idea to help him in this world and ask him to nominate you. Besides, his Spirit Nest is also strong. Rather than having such an opponent, it's better to have him as your friend. If it's not possible, then it's better to be his follower. You can live on your own after you reach the main clan anyway."

"But… How about the clan? I realized I was too excited about this and forgot about the clan. If I were gone, who will take my position?" Song Jiaoren asked with a worried expression.

"Don't worry. We will handle this situation well. There is still your younger sister. Although she is a woman, she is quite capable. As long as I pour my heart in teaching her, she will do just fine."

"Grandfather…" Song Jiaoren widened his eyes. "I understand. I will try to follow him in this world and talk about the nomination thing after our relationship has gotten better."

"Sure. You are a smart child, so I am sure you will be alright. Just make sure to learn his character first, so you don't unconsciously offend him."

"I understand." Song Jiaoren nodded before changing the topic. "There is another thing I want to discuss."

"Sure. Do tell us."

"Do you remember the matter about the Fourth Elder?" Song Jiaoren asked without any expression.

However, the two in front of him suddenly turned serious. "Do you mean the first elder and the third elder?"

"Yeah. They have known the existence of the Supreme VIP Card in his hand. I have been keeping close eyes on them, so they are laying low right now. However, I am sure they are trying to come up with a plan, so I want to eliminate them as soon as possible before they can do anything." Song Jiaoren nodded solemnly.

"Still, this is a tricky problem. On one hand, we can't justify how these two elders die if people know we kill them. On the other hand, there is a chance of them risking the entire family life by confronting that Alexander." Song Ping closed his eyes, pondering over the matter.

"That's why I want to talk it out. I am still wondering whether we should release the news about the Supreme VIP Card or not." Song Jiaoren asked.

"The problem is… We don't know whether the clan members will believe it or not. After all, we have been keeping it secret this whole time. If we suddenly announce it and kill the two elders, there will be many oppositions. Even if I can kill them with my 10-Star Martial Saint Strength, the clan will start to decline since there are only a few people left with strength 7-Star or above."

"I know, Grandfather. That's why I also have another trump card." Song Jiaoren smirked as he gave Alex's Space Ring to them. "I have estimated all the items inside the Space Ring, and it could reach two million Spirit Crystals. If we sell them over the years, I am sure we can get more than five million Spirit Crystals easily."

"!!!" Both of them widened their eyes as they checked the Space Ring and were utterly speechless. "This…"

"This transaction, how they plotted against the Fourth Elder, and the release information about the Supreme VIP Card. I am sure these three are enough to fabricate them. Besides, I have won the majority of the elders, so they will surely support me." Song Jiaoren nodded with confidence.

"If we are releasing these three pieces of information in a single meeting…" Song Ping closed his eyes for a second and explained. "Firstly, the transaction is really great. If we can get a few million Spirit Crystals, it can put the burden on the two elders and strip them of their positions. As for the loss of the Fourth Elder, we don't really have enough evidence for this, so most of the elders won't believe it.

"And we still need to deal with the Supreme VIP Card. Not only this might also get the attention of other influences, but the clan members might also become unsatisfied as to why we keep the information to ourselves." Song Ping revealed every disadvantage they would get.

Song Jiaoren smirked as he explained his plan. "That's when we are announcing his name as the representative as Spirit Nest. We will put all the blame about Fourth Elder on the First Elder and the Third Elder to fabricate them from allying themselves with the Fire God Clan. After all, it's easy to manipulate their thoughts as long as we ask them why only the third elder came back.

"At that time, the Spirit Nest decided to give us some face because of the Blackwade Clan from the Northern Continent. However, the third elder needed to kill the Fourth Elder as well to erase the evidence. There might still be some dissatisfaction with the other elders, but we can simply say we are willing to use one million Spirit Crystals to raise our clan strength. We still get a few million anyway from this transaction, so I think one million is more than enough to gain Alexander Sirius's trust and solve the grievances he has in this clan."

"It seems you have thought everything…" Song Ping smirked. "It's really a shame that you can't be the Patriarch after me…"

"Don't worry, Father. If I become a God Rank Expert and gain status in the main clan, I won't forget about this place. I might even be able to get more and more people from this place to train inside the Main Clan. After that, I can send you resources and other things." Song Jiaoren assured him with a smile. "I, Song Jiaoren, will still fight for this clan even if I am not here in the future."

"Good son, good son." Song Ping laughed out loud as he patted his shoulders.

"I will handle them if they are trying to resist. In fact, the moment they resist, we can mobilize the other elders and kill them. Our reputation will get smeared a little bit, but we can restore it pretty soon."

"Yeah, Grandfather." Song Jiaoren nodded. "Besides, Ancient Ruin is going to open soon. With the addition of Alexander Sirius, I am sure the Fire God Clan won't dare to come. Suppose they are coming; they will die anyway."

"I see. Are you going with him inside the Ancient Battlefield?"

"I don't think so. Judging from his attitude and battle prowess, I doubt he will go along with someone else. Hence, I am thinking about forfeiting this chance to give my little sister a chance. After all, we need her to be a 10-Star Martial Saint in the future." Song Jiaoren smiled.

Song Ping was startled by his decision. "Are you sure? This is a chance that will only come every five hundred years, you know."

"I know. I will apologize to Alexander Sirius myself for this and make sure Ling'er not to be rude to him." Song Jiaoren nodded. "Of course, I will accompany him to the entrance of Ancient Ruin while explaining my own reason. Besides, I am sure everything I can get inside that Ancient Battlefield, I can get it better from the Main Clan."

"Ren…" Song Ping was filled with worry. "Aren't you putting too much risk on this matter?"

"I am ready to gamble my future in this matter, Father. Please let me do it." Song Jiaoren smiled. "In addition, we can also remove the Fire God Clan from this continent, so this is a big chance for us. That's right, I want to add another thing. I heard that after defeating the Joyful Union Sect, he decided to give a huge amount of wealth to the Blackwade Clan in the Northern Continent. I am sure I won't be treated badly."

"I understand. This is for the sake of confirmation. Are you sure he is a Supreme VIP Card holder?"

"I am sure, Grandfather. You can check the log itself after this." Song Jiaoren nodded. "Father should also see it. This way, you can be more confident in your son."

"It's not like we are not confident, we are just worried." Song Ping shook his head. "Anyway, I will talk with your mother about having your sister as the future patriarch."

"Thank you, Father." Song Jiaoren cupped his hand and bowed his head.

"What thank you? I am not your father for nothing."

"Since Song Ping already has a role for tonight, I will go to our clan treasury and grab some items to help us in the fight tomorrow. After all, it's better to do it in tomorrow's meeting to show our commitment to this."

"Thank you, Grandfather." Song Jiaoren cupped his hand again. "I will handle the talk with Alexander Sirius about this."

"Alright." The two nodded at the same time.

Song Jiaoren then rose and bowed his head. "Now, I will excuse myself. Good night, Father, Grandfather."

"Good night, (grand) son."

…

Unbeknownst to them, there was a single woman that was listening to their conversation. She had hidden her presence this whole time to ensure their intention, and the result was quite satisfying, at least, for her.

Knowing that the conversation had finished, she decided to return to Alex's side.

Inside Alex's courtyard, he was talking with Alicia before Nicole suddenly appeared in front of him like a ninja.

"Master."

"Oh, Nicole… Wait a minute, Alicia." Alex paused for a moment and asked Nicole. "How is it?"
