I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 457 - 455: Let’s See How Brave They Are

"Mr. Zhang, take care. From now on, you are our Hua Family’s eternal guest. Whenever you need help, feel free to call me," Hua Tianze said with great cordiality as he saw Zhang Menglong out of the Hua Family’s villa, watching him until he left.

"Dad, there’s something I don’t understand," after Zhang Menglong had gone far away, Hua Ye finally couldn’t hold back his words. "Even if Zhang Menglong’s father once inflicted heavy damage on our Hua Family, after ten years of development, our family has changed dramatically. Besides, over the past few years, Longxia and the Ancient Martial Arts World have been merging, and we might even be able to establish a connection with the Martial God..."

"You know nothing!" Hua Tianze cut him off directly. "Do you think the Martial God is that powerful?"

Hua Ye was stunned, isn’t the Martial God powerful? He’s considered the number one person in the second world today, and even the captain of Longxia seems to be far behind him, he is now a trump card for Huaxia!

"Do you know what the ss-level secret that Longxia sealed off recently is about?" Hua Tianze had deep connections with Longxia and knew things that Hua Ye could never find out.

"Dad, what on earth is it? So far, the highest level of secrecy Longxia has imposed is ’s’ level. I can’t imagine what could have prompted them to set the secrecy level so high!"

"A few months ago, a group of Kaibong ninjas invaded Huaxia territory!"

"What? Such a thing happened?" Hua Ye was shocked. "But it shouldn’t have caused any consequences, right?"

"Those invaders were very strong, so much so that even our god-level psychics in charge of guarding the border didn’t notice them. They even brutally slaughtered a small squad of our Longxia!"

"What?" Though Hua Ye was a bit of a playboy, he was still a Huaxia person and couldn’t help clenching his fists at this revelation.

"Based on the data we gathered from the investigation and the analysis of the energy intensity lingering near the battlefield, it’s very likely that the energy level of those Kaibong people is at least above 20!"

"At least? Surpassing god-level psychics?" Hua Ye was truly taken aback this time. "Is it the Dark Ninja Nin Emperor? Has he broken through?"

"No! It’s an unknown squad," Hua Tianze replied, "and you know what that means!"

Of course, Hua Ye knew. If a god-level psychic managed to infiltrate a country, it was almost as if a nuclear bomb was placed inside that country!

A powerful psychic could be much more terrifying than any atomic bomb! And as for a ninja surpassing god-level psychics... Hua Ye didn’t dare to continue his thought.

So far, Huaxia only had one person, the Martial God, who had broken through to the Heavenly Origin Boundary. If the other side invaded Huaxia with such a lineup, the consequences could be described as disastrous.

"I also need to tell you, the opposing team, all eight of them, are at that level of strength!"

"What? Eight?" Hua Ye’s eyes widened in disbelief. One such individual was already difficult to deal with, but with eight of them infiltrating, did they intend to destroy Huaxia? Moreover, since when did the tiny Kaibong possess so many powerful ninjas?

"What does Zhang Menglong have to do with this?" Hua Ye immediately thought of this.

"Zhang Menglong took on this matter for Longxia, capturing seven of the ninjas alive. Only one escaped, and he has put out a hefty bounty for him," Hua Tianze explained.

"Is it that Hui Jie Yan Er?"

Hua Tianze nodded.

"Those seven..."

"They met a fate even worse than your Uncle Dragon King’s. They killed Huaxia people, so I think Zhang Menglong will definitely make them experience what’s worse than death."

"No wonder you showed him such respect." Hua Ye nodded in understanding, to himself.

Eight ninjas at least on par with a Heavenly Originator, and Zhang Menglong could easily capture them alive, even daring to issue a global bounty. This showed that to him, these eight people weren’t even worth a fart!

And for the Hua Family, even a single level nine Psychic could lead to their utter destruction. How could they afford to provoke someone like Zhang Menglong?

"So, my approach is the most reasonable one so far; we can’t just appease someone like him, we must also make him happy," Hua Tianze sighed. It seemed like he generously gave away a bunch of shares to Zhang Menglong, but in reality, his heart was bleeding. An industry worth 150 billion US Dollars was, without a doubt, like cutting off their own flesh for the Hua Family.

...

"The Hua Family is quite polite," Zhang Menglong let Hong Yi handle some items they had just received from the Hua Family. The combined value of these shares was nearly reaching 200 billion US Dollars—this was the entire fortune of what used to be the world’s richest man!

"Mr. Zhang, the Hua Family has also been frightened by your family," Hong Yi said with a smile, "Mr. Zhang Xiaoyun almost brought their entire family down back in the day."

"Since they’ve been so sensible about it, there’s no need to pursue this matter any further," Zhang Menglong spoke, "Also, cancel the economic sanctions against the Hua Family. I imagine this will teach them a good lesson."

"Mr. Zhang, a piece of information came in this afternoon that I think you should know about."

"What information?" Zhang Menglong asked.

"It’s regarding the Mahalast Family of Yinhei, who manage your family’s industries there," Hong Yi explained, "The Mahalast Family assets are worth roughly 2 trillion US Dollars, but the Clan Leader, Domute, passed away last night."

"The Mahalasts have served your family for about 1200 years, a display of unwavering loyalty. However, Domute spent his life toiling for your assets, seldom considering his own affairs, hence he died without any children, which is quite pitiful."

"Oh?" Zhang Menglong hardly paid attention to the many such family forces in each country, but because there were so many, they failed to catch his interest.

But Domute had died childless at an old age, which made Zhang Menglong feel a twinge of guilt.

Although his illness was unrelated to himself, if Domute had spent more time on his personal life, he might not have died alone, without anyone to send him off.

"Let’s do this: arrange a flight for me tomorrow. I’ll personally go to Yinhei to offer my respects," Zhang Menglong said.

"Certainly, Mr. Zhang, I’ll arrange it immediately," Hong Yi responded, "But you need to be prepared in advance."

"Prepared? What do you mean?" Zhang Menglong asked, puzzled.

The Mahalast family heir usually follows a direct line of succession, but since Domute had no children, this has caused some complications with the inheritance rights.

"Doesn’t he have any brothers or sisters?" Zhang Menglong inquired.

"He has a cousin and a sister, and both have developed into large families by leveraging Mahalast resources. While these two families outwardly belong to the Mahalasts, their loyalty isn’t as high as Domute’s and they may have some other ideas to some extent."

"You’re saying they might fight for Mahalast’s resources?"

"Not just that," Hong Yi continued, "Whoever controls the Mahalast essentially controls Yinhei. The allure of such power is something few can resist. I’m afraid they might use this opportunity to try separating the Mahalasts from the Zhang Family."

"Are you certain?" Zhang Menglong queried.

"We don’t have conclusive evidence," Hong Yi replied, "But traditionally, the Mahalast heir prepares their will before death, and Domute was no exception. Anticipating his own demise within a short period last month, he had made a will, leaving all Mahalast assets to you. However, the lawyer responsible for the will mysteriously disappeared a few days ago!"

"What?" Anger surged up in Zhang Menglong, which was then replaced by a cold smirk, "I do want to see how many have the guts to play such a game with me!"
