Seeing that everyone was present, Caesar stood up and slowly walked to the center of the room where the podium was. Standing on the podium, he looked at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Patriarch, elders, recently a lot of things have happened to our Purcell clan. Those shameless merchants actually took advantage of the insect plague in the Ica plains to raise the price of food. Fortunately, with everyone's joint efforts, our clan didn't suffer a major loss. But now someone dares to challenge the prestige of our Purcell clan, this is absolutely not allowed."
Speaking up to here, he paused and looked at the people in the room. He had a feeling of controlling the world, this feeling made him intoxicated. Some people say that power is the best elixir of immortality, this was really true. Caesar felt that when he stood on this podium for the first time, his body was full of vitality. He felt that he could live for hundreds of years. He felt that he was still young and could do better.
The people in the room were also whispering, they didn't know what was going on that made Caesar speak so seriously. Caesar looked at everyone and said, "Just now, the Buda clan's steward Green arrived at the Grand Duke's mansion. He came this time to break off the engagement. Some time ago, there was a beast plague in the Black Wasteland. My Purcell clan was afraid that the Buda clan would have an accident, so we sent our family's men to investigate, but they were all killed by Green. This time, he came to break off the engagement, this is simply looking at my Purcell clan as nothing. This kind of crazy person, we can't let him live."
Everyone in the conference room was surprised, they looked at Caesar puzzledly. Although Caesar's words were pleasant to hear, these elders all understood what was going on. What was worried about the Buda clan? Obviously, they sent people to investigate and prepare to deal with the Buda clan. Even if the Buda clan killed those people, it wasn't a big deal. How could it be related to the prestige of the Grand Duke's mansion?
Only the second elder and the third elder, these old foxes, understood that Caesar was determined to deal with the Buda clan. But they didn't understand why Caesar was determined to deal with the Buda clan, so the two didn't say anything, they just looked at Caesar puzzledly.
Caesar also knew that his words wouldn't be able to move these people. Although he was powerful in the Purcell clan, it was impossible for him to cover the sky with one hand. There was also the Second Elder and the Third Elder to keep him in check.
Kaiser continued, "Green is now a Peak Rank Eight expert. Everyone should know that although our Purcell Family had an arranged marriage with the Buda Clan, the Buda Clan's current status simply isn't good enough for our Purcell Family. Although they took the initiative to break off the engagement, this matter is still related to us. But have you thought about it? What if Grimm holds a grudge against us because of this, and he becomes a Level-9 powerhouse one day? What will the consequences be? "
After talking nonsense for a long time, this sentence finally hit the nail on the head. This time, everyone in the room understood what Caesar meant. At the same time, they also had the same idea as Caesar.
They all knew that when the Buda clan was in trouble, they had also hit them while they were down. They had already formed a great enmity with the Buda clan. If one day Green really did become a Rank Nine expert, then for the Purcell clan, it definitely wouldn't be a good thing.
"No wonder the Great Elder wants to deal with the Buda clan." After Caesar said the reason why he wanted to deal with the Buda clan, everyone instantly had the same idea. Only Evan was sitting on the Patriarch's table, not saying a word. He also knew that whatever he said now would be useless.
At this time, the Second Elder opened his mouth, "What the Great Elder said is reasonable. But now that the Buda Clan is a Peak Rank Eight expert, it wouldn't be easy for us to deal with him. Even if we can kill him, our losses wouldn't be small. I don't know if the Great Elder has thought about this point?"
Caesar knew that the Second Elder wouldn't easily do as he said, but he was already prepared. He nodded and said, "Of course I have thought about it. Therefore, this old man has already prepared an old carriage. I am prepared to personally ask the God Consecrator for help. First, to kill Green to prevent future troubles. Second, to intimidate those profiteers. Let them know that our Purcell clan has the ability to destroy them."
The meeting room was silent, then a huge burst of cheers broke out. Just as Laura and the others said, Great Nobles had their pride. Their majesty wasn't something that could be violated by anyone.
Caesar's words naturally resonated with the people in the room. Only a few people didn't say anything, the Second Elder, the Third Elder, and Evan.
The Second Elder and the Third Elder had been competing with the Great Elder for power. Now that they saw the Great Elder being so popular, the two naturally weren't in a good mood. Evan's heart was now even more complicated.
He was the nominal Patriarch of the Purcell clan, the Grand Duke of the Purcell Duchy. But in the Elder's Council, he didn't have any right to speak. In fact, he was just sitting there as a decoration. Almost all the elders who came to the meeting knew this. But on the surface, the elders were still respectful to him, which made Evan angry.
But he didn't have any other way. This matter, to put it bluntly, was the Purcell clan's dirty linen. It was a matter of the Purcell clan that he couldn't tell others. And in front of outsiders, the elders were very respectful. This made outsiders think that he was the Purcell clan's Grand Duke.
In the past, the reason why the Purcell clan didn't deal with the Buda clan was because of him. He and Adam's father were good friends, so he naturally didn't want the Buda clan to disappear.
But when he helped the Buda clan before, his own authority had been greatly reduced. Now, he didn't have the ability to help the Buda clan. But in this case, it was impossible for him to support the Great Elder.
Evan was a warrior, so it can be said that he wasn't a political material. It was precisely because of this that he was able to become the Purcell clan's Patriarch. Because he didn't understand politics, he was easier to control.
Although the three of them didn't express their position, it didn't matter. The other elders were already stirred up by the Great Elder's words, and their blood was boiling.
Caesar looked at the result with satisfaction, then he said, "Can I ask those who agree with my opinion to raise their hands?"
More than half of the people in the conference room raised their hands. This result was already decided. Those who didn't raise their hands were the Second and Third Elders' loyalists.
Caesar nodded and said, "More than 50% of the votes in favor, passed." Then he turned to Evan and bowed, "Sir Patriarch, can I now go and ask for God's offerings?"
Evan looked at Caesar and calmly nodded. He didn't say anything. Caesar looked at Evan and didn't say anything. He bowed to Evan and turned his head, "Meeting adjourned." Then he walked out of the conference room.
The elders in the conference room also left one after another. The Second and Third Elders looked at each other and sighed impatiently. Then they also walked out of the conference room.
Although they had snatched a lot of elder seats from Caesar's hands and obtained a lot of speaking rights, compared to Caesar's strength, they were still lacking. But this time, if Caesar did well, then his prestige would reach a new height. When the time comes, they wouldn't have any way to fight against Caesar.
To be honest, their current mood was very complicated. They hoped that Caesar would win. This way, the Purcell clan's prestige would be maintained and the younger generation would be intimidated.
But in their hearts, they also hoped that Caesar would make a mistake and that the Buda clan would resist, making Caesar's actions fail. This way, Caesar's prestige would receive an unprecedented blow, and they would be able to use this opportunity to deal with Caesar.
However, they also knew that this was impossible. This time, in order for Caesar to succeed, he had to ask the Guardian God for help. The Guardian God was a 9th rank expert, a synonym for invincibility. How could a quasi deity fail?
What they didn't know was that when the Purcell clan rang the bell, Zhao Hai had already received the news. Zhao Hai had the Night Shades pay attention to the Purcell clan's situation. The Night Shades were originally high level death warriors, and now that they were undead, their ability to restrain their aura was much better than before. Moreover, the Purcell clan didn't have any high level light mages, so it would be very difficult for them to find the Night Shades.
Ordinary people might not know what the Purcell clan's bell represented, but the Night Shades knew. Don't forget, he had been turned into a high level undead by Zhao Hai, so he still retained his memories from when he was alive. The organization that he was part of had a certain understanding of all the great clans in the continent. The Purcell clan already had their own duchy, so of course, they were also investigated. Therefore, they knew what the Purcell clan's summoning bell represented.
The moment the Purcell clan's bell rang, the Night Shades immediately informed Zhao Hai about the situation and explained what it represented.
Zhao Huo was lying in his bedroom at this time. He was really afraid that after he went out, Merine would tell him about the engagement. After receiving the news, Zhao Hai immediately stood up and went out.
Green was sitting in the living room, looking at the screen. He had to pay attention to the situation in his room. If someone found out that he had entered the room and disappeared, then it would be troublesome.
Zhao Hai saw that Green was still in the living room, so he immediately said, "Grandpa Green, the Purcell clan might have some changes. They just rang the emergency bell."
Green also knew about the emergency bell. When he heard Zhao Hai, his complexion couldn't help but change. "Really? Did the Night Shades send the news? "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Right, it was Night Shadowless who sent the news. Night Shadowless also knows a bit about the Purcell Family, so when the emergency bell rang, he immediately reported it to me." Zhao Hai nodded.
Green stood up and frowned. "Why did they ring the emergency bell? We came to cancel the engagement, so they shouldn't deal with us, right? "
