C1967 Seventh family of the north(part ii)
Wan Yankangda's opening remark instantly shocked him. Of course, at the same time of his shock, there was also a trace of a strange feeling being born from the depths of his heart.
Carefully chewing on Wan Yankangda's words, Zhang Hao squinted: "Seven Great Clans, there's actually a seventh clan in the Northern Kingdom?"
Even though Zhang Hao had already faintly felt that there was an invisible power controlling the six great families of the Northern Kingdom, he had not expected that there was actually a seventh clan present in the Northern Kingdom.
Furthermore, from the reactions and expressions of Shen Junhao and the others, the strength and power of the so-called seventh clan of the Northern Kingdom far surpassed the level of Shen Junhao and the others. Otherwise, the seventh clan hiding in the shadows wouldn't have been able to cause such fear in Shen Junhao and the others.
However, there was one thing that Zhang Hao still could not understand, and that was that the Blue Sword's information network was spread across the entire continent. How could it miss out on the Northern Kingdom's actual controller who was hiding in the shadows?
"The seventh clan? Who the hell are they? "
After being silent and suspicious for a while, Zhang Hao opened his mouth to ask again. At this moment, the way Zhang Hao looked at Wan Yankangda had changed, and became more cautious, since the information that Wan Yankangda had revealed was true, then Zhang Hao had to immediately inform Lang Ya who was far away in terms of Fan Cheng and Falling City. Furthermore, all the preparations for Blue Sword had to be reversed.
Under Zhang Hao's continuous questioning, Wan Yankangda only revealed a bit of a bitter smile.
After laughing bitterly, Wan Yankangda shook his head and said: "Director Zhang, perhaps you might not believe what I am about to say, but I can use my life to guarantee that everything I say is true."
After a pause, Wan Yankangda spread out his hands and said: "To be honest, I also do not know who the seventh family member occupying the Northern Kingdom is. Where was their base of operations? This clan, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that this power had already appeared in the Northern Kingdom long ago, even before our six great clans had appeared. "
Laughing, Wan Yankangda's expression froze, and a hint of fear appeared on his face: "Sometimes I suspect that the six great families of the Northern Kingdom are merely his spokesmen, and that he is the one controlling the main culprit of the entire Northern Kingdom, and that we are just a bunch of pitiful puppets."
"How, how is this possible?"
Zhang Hao was the first to find Wan Yankangda's words unbelievable, "Does not even know who the seventh family of the Northern Kingdom is?"
A doubtful expression appeared in Zhang Hao's eyes as he swept his gaze across everyone present.
In the meeting room below the ground, Wan Yankangda, Shen Junhao and the others all had their heads lowered.
In the end, Jin Waner couldn't help but open her mouth and say, "Director Zhang, what Guan Yan's House Master said is all true. Until now, our six great families have always looked glorious on the surface, but there were also many people who thought that we were just relying on capital, and in truth, no one knew that we were just like marionettes pushed in front of the stage. "
"That mysterious power has always been in the Northern Kingdom, and it has always been controlling us. Even the leaders of the six great clans were only able to obtain it with their approval. Although we've been fighting back for hundreds of years, our ancestors have been investigating who that power was and how strong were they? But after hundreds of years, we still have nothing. "We only know that the seventh clan hiding in the darkness is extremely resourceful, and the number of experts they have is simply countless. Any one of them could easily destroy the six Northern Clans."
Jin Waner said while revealing a helpless expression. Even Zhang Hao himself could feel the despair in his heart.
After all, the six clans had been fighting with the seventh clan for hundreds of years without even knowing who their opponents were. No matter how one looked at it, this was a very tragic thing.
Zhang Hao's eyes could not help but roll. After a moment of silence, he said, "Since all of you are controlled by this mysterious power, then there must be a connection between them and you. Otherwise, how did you get their instructions?"
Hearing Zhang Hao's question, the silent Shen Junhao could no longer sit still. He sighed and said, "To be honest, Director Zhang, we are naturally connected to the Seventh Family. However, this force had been in the Northern Kingdom for far too long. Whether it was the Feudal Lords or the upper echelons of the Fengtian Building, they were all present. "They also keep in touch with the six clans once every five years. That is, at the gathering where the six clans elect our alliance head every five years. This has been going on for decades now."
"It's only been contacted once every five years? So how do they control your movements? "
Regarding Shen Junhao's words, at this point in time, Zhang Hao was a little skeptical.
Shen Junhao continued to speak with a wry smile: "They have always only been concerned with the general situation of the Northern Kingdom, and do not care about the conflicts and details between the various great clans. Therefore, every five years they would formulate a concrete development policy regarding the Northern Kingdom, and ask us to carry it out.
With regards to Shen Junhao's words, Wan Yankangda laughed disdainfully: "Shen Lao, what bullsh * t plan? You really know how to give them face." After saying that, Wan Yankangda suddenly turned towards Zhang Hao, and laughed helplessly: "Director Zhang, you might not know, but the so-called specific policies that Shen Lao has mentioned are just the extortion of Scarlet Fruit. Every five years, they appear once, and every time they appear, they would make a detailed list, and request for us to finish all of the content on the list before handing over all the resources that we had plundered from the Northern Kingdom to them. This kind of behavior is no different from that of a bandit."
Speaking of this matter, Wan Yankangda revealed a trace of anger and unfairness.
However, after hearing Wan Yankangda's words, Zhang Hao muttered in his heart for a while, and then continued to ask: "Guan Yan's House Master, do you still remember what the list of names they had given to you previously asked for?"
"Hehe, what else could there be? It's just gold and silver coins, and some herbs …" As he spoke, Wan Yankangda seemed to have suddenly recalled something, "Oh right, there's also a woman!"
"Women?"
Hearing this word, Zhang Hao immediately felt something strange.
If it was said that a hidden force needed gold, silver, and medicinal herbs, it would be reasonable to say that they needed elixirs. But to say that such a powerful force, which was hidden in the darkness of the Northern Kingdom, actually needed women, Zhang Hao could not figure it out.2
Just as the doubt in Zhang Hao's heart was reborn and he remained silent, a powerful fist force suddenly descended from the sky, instantly penetrating the ground. The powerful force caused the entire underground conference room to tremble.
"Who is it?"
Sensing the enmity from top to bottom, Zhang Hao was instantly enraged. He stomped his feet and uttered a mighty cry.
