Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal

At the entrance of conference room one.

Upon Alkaid's arrival, all representatives from the major Noble Families stood up, waiting outside.

Although he appeared younger than everyone had anticipated, when he showed up at the entrance of the conference room, be it the still powerful Lu Family and Jiang Family, or the declining Li Family and Yue Family, everyone bowed and greeted him respectively.

This was both a recognition of his status and identity.

It was also a respect for a person who, with his extraordinary power alone, could overturn a small country's regime.

Inside the conference room.

Alkaid gestured for everyone to take their seats.

Without much small talk, he dove into the topic, "Since you all have come, obviously there is some initial intention to cooperate. Thus, we have a common goal."

The crowd nodded their heads.

"For years, anyone slightly familiar with the situation in Dayu Country has seen the contradictions between the Noble Families and the Royal Family. As soon as the turbulent era ended, the Liao Family started reclaiming the rights originally belonging to the Noble Families.

Decades ago, they used the excuse of post-war reckoning, but in recent years, their actions have become more and more unscrupulous. If it weren't for our timely awakening and alliance formation, we would have been quietly and individually shattered by them already," one of them said.

It was Jiang Sheng who spoke.

On the way here, Yue Xingzhou had already explained it to Alkaid.

Among the surviving Noble Families, outwardly the Lu Family seemed the most formidable. However, the Jiang Family had the oldest heritage and the most profound background.

Jiang Sheng's words resonated with the other families, "The Liao Family wants to break tradition, dominate Dayu, and exterminate us all. If they push us too far, they can't blame us for fighting to the bitter end."

Hearing this from the Noble Families, Alkaid was aware that what they were doing wasn't noble or righteous.

But...

That didn't matter.

His pursuit had always been one thing—security.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Security included both the safety of life and environmental safety.

Demons threatened his environmental safety, so he killed the demons.

The Liao Family protected the demons, and then directly threatened his life's safety...

Therefore, he rose in rebellion, to fight for his life.

What was wrong with that?

After stating his position, Jiang Sheng's gaze returned to Alkaid, "We would like to know, Lord Alkaid, what do you plan to do?"

"The Yue Family has shown me the data. In terms of regular strength, the combined forces of your families are not inferior to the Liao Family, and in some aspects, even surpass them. The disadvantage lies in two points, the first being..."

Alkaid glanced at the representatives of the nine families, "Each has their own schemes, and there is disunity among you."

The nine family representatives looked at each other, also understanding this principle.

They even knew that if they could truly unite, they might be able to divide Dayu with the Liao Family.

But...

Even close kin can turn against each other over interests, let alone nine different families...

Or should I say, nine different interest groups?

For this reason, although the Liao Family has not completely torn their faces with these nine families, they have been continuously cutting away at the strength of the Noble Families with a dull knife. After another decade or so, when the Noble Families have been weakened enough to no longer cause significant turmoil, it would spell the doom of the nine Noble Families.

"Apart from the disunity, the second point is that the Liao Family has a significant advantage in high-end combat powers. They possess the overwhelming force needed to decapitate any core member of any family," Alkaid continued.

To describe the relationship between the Royal Liao Family and the nine great Noble Families, it was like a gunman facing nine strong men bare-handed.

If the nine were fearless of death and charged together, they might be able to overcome the Liao Family.

But...

The gun targets the leading bird.

The nine already had different intentions, and let alone whether they could set aside life and death to charge together, even if they really went all out...

The first few to charge would undoubtedly die.

"A direct hit," Jiang Sheng nodded in agreement with Alkaid's statement.

After all, it was information provided by the Yue Family, one of the Noble Families, and they clearly understood the crux of the matter.

"But now, the situation has changed," Alkaid said as he stood up, facing the representatives of the nine families, and calmly stated, "I am here."

"You mean..."

"Exactly as you think," Alkaid glanced at Jiang Sheng, "Under my command, we will form an elite squad to implement a decapitation strike against the Liao Family!"

Jiang Sheng and the others nodded slightly.

This was precisely the most effective, quickest, and most direct plan they had considered.

The only problem was, by doing this, Alkaid, a young Martial Saint, would assume a huge risk, akin to entering a dragon's den.

But now he had volunteered...

"My question is, after I complete the decapitation of several core members of the Dayu Royal Family, can you quickly control the situation and ensure that Dayu Country does not fall into turmoil, even civil war?" Alkaid asked.

"We can't fully guarantee the capital, but, other provinces, we can!" Jiang Sheng responded directly.

"Hmm?"

Alkaid looked at him.

"Actually, the principle is very simple. Now, it's the information age," Jiang Ming smiled, "I can't confront the military power held by the Liao Family directly, but... I can block the communication of the capital for at least an hour. No information from the capital can be sent out during that hour, and in one hour... enough dust can settle.

Afterwards, those who understand the times will naturally make the right decisions."

Lu Jianfeng also added, "Perhaps some who are utterly loyal to the Royal Family will make some radical actions, causing limited turmoil. But it won't stir up too great a storm."

Yue Nanxing also nodded on the side.

Alkaid recalled the recent contact between the Su Family and the Yue Family, and their rapid infiltration into various departments of Tian Nan...

If the heavily suppressed Yue Family still had such capability, not to mention the other Noble Families.

With this thought, Alkaid made up his mind, "Then it's settled. Afterward, the capital, the three cities around it, and Tian Nan Province will be the private lands of the Su and Yue families. As for the other territories, you can distribute them among yourselves!"

As he spoke, he added, "I only have one requirement: inter-provincial population and information flow must still be maintained; no actions that interfere or hinder are allowed."

Lu Jianfeng, Jiang Sheng, and others, understanding Alkaid's intentions, came to a realization.

This...

Essentially amounted to partitioning Dayu Country into ten small to medium-sized countries similar to Lihuo Country.

Given the current united environment to counteract Red Star and Snow Dragon dominance, this was not advantageous.

Their original intention was to revert to the previous situation where the Noble Families and the Royal Family shared the rule.

Outwardly, they would submit to the Royal Family and could even pay a certain "tax" as an offering, but the Royal Family was not allowed to interfere with their dominant positions in various provinces, and still had to help them withstand the pressure from Red Star.

However, discussing these details now was a bit premature.

The Liao family had not yet been annihilated.

Moreover, they had to observe Alkaid during this operation to establish a final stance based on his performance.

"Agreed."

"As Alkaid dictates."

Lv Jianfeng and Jiang Sheng declared.

Once they had spoken, the other noble families naturally concurred.

"Let's proceed this way then, each family shall send a Grandmaster with me, and additionally, I'll give you twelve hours to prepare. At dawn tonight, I will launch a decapitation strike directly against the Liao family."

Alkaid declared forthrightly.

"Twelve hours?"

Li Cunyu was startled and couldn't help saying, "Isn't that too soon? There's barely enough time to prepare thoroughly."

"Speed is of the essence in warfare!"

Alkaid glanced at him, "We aren't fully prepared, nor are they."

Li Cunyu wanted to say more, but Jiang Sheng already spoke up, "Then at dawn it is!"

He said solemnly, "The task we are undertaking is inherently fraught with uncertainty, merely having a solid chance is sufficient."

"Heh, our presence here already anticipated this scenario, didn't it?"

Lv Jianfeng said with a smile.

In the gathering, Grandmasters accounted for seven of the family representatives.

The remaining two families also had Grandmasters following them.

This in itself meant something.

They had already prepared various contingency plans.

This included the likelihood that Alkaid would opt to form a specialized squad to carry out the decapitation mission.

"I've established a channel, the logistical teams of each Grandmaster should join my channel for easier coordination of the operation,"

Yue Xingzhou stepped forward to say.

The others nodded.

Lv Jianfeng then shifted his attention to Alkaid, "My godfather lent his team to me, if Lord Alkaid requires, I can arrange for them to be on standby in the capital immediately."

"No need,"

Alkaid spoke.

Logistical teams would provide intelligence, equipment, supplies, and long-range firepower support. Compared to the Lu Family's Martial Saint, he still trusted Yue Xingzhou's cohesive line more.

Seeing this, Lv Jianfeng did not press further.

Soon, everyone was added to one channel.

For safety, each family also dispatched a liaison squad to follow Alkaid closely, ready to respond to any commands.

Alkaid returned to the villa, quickly gathering his equipment.

Battle Garment, weapons, firearms, Elixir—all were taken up.

As he was packing, Lei Yun suddenly approached him, "Young Master, Grandmaster Zong Yan has sent a piece of information."

"Information?"

Alkaid took the information to review.

It recorded the formidable individuals and armed forces possessed by the Liao family.

The Liao family publicly had two Martial Saints.

One was Liao Zhenguo, the other Kong Fang.

Yet, in reality, aside from these two, the military's Commander Zhang Jian also served the Royal Family.

Moreover, they were concealing another Martial Saint, Bian Liancheng.

In other words, the Liao family could actually command up to four Martial Saints.

As for the number of Grandmasters, it was even more than twenty.

This strength...

Could not be considered weak.

It was no wonder that despite being slowly worn down by the Liao family, not a single family dared to be the first to stand up against them.

Whoever stood up would die.

This information not only highlighted the Liao family but also pointed out the Lu and Jiang families.

The Lu family having the Martial Saint Lv Tianhe was known, but the Jiang family...

Was also concealing a Martial Saint.

Additionally, the Xu Family was suspected of harboring a Martial Saint, though even the Global Aid Society's intelligence department couldn't confirm for sure.

After reviewing the information, Alkaid was silent for a moment before slowly exhaling.

"How weak."

A country with a population of three hundred million and military capabilities among the top twenty in the world, yet they only had seven Martial Saints.

Too weak.

Suddenly, he pondered over what being a Martial Saint represented...

Fully armed, a sudden strike could break through a heavy armored combined brigade.

The critical part was that the opponents were elusive and fundamentally undetectable by conventional methods.

There was once a record where a Martial Saint in a year had crushed thirteen heavy armored combined brigades...

All soldiers were like lambs to the slaughter in the face of a Martial Saint supported by a complete logistical team.

To conquer an enemy country, look no further.

Hence, seven Martial Saints...

Underestimating this force was a sure path to death.

The only reason Alkaid felt this way was due to one reason.

"I'm too strong,"

...

Setting aside the information, he finished packing his belongings.

Six hours later, he appeared at a secret base of the Lu Family in the capital.

There, Lv Jianfeng, Jiang Sheng, and other Grandmasters had long been waiting with their teams.

Alkaid could clearly see dozens, even scores of people busy in rooms filled with monitors.

After exchanging brief greetings and understanding each other's strengths and specialties, everyone began adjusting their statuses and checking their equipment.

Time flew by.

It was already dawn.
