Chapter 214 - Viral News
"What happened to Damian and Martha?" asked the family head suddenly, realising his subordinate hadn\'t told them about what had happened to them.
"They were beaten by Cole and Angela in battle while that mysterious youth with them was able to wound them and take on Mason alone" answered the subordinate.
The family head was shocked and he would never have expected that Anglea would be able to face Damian and Martha head-on with someone else.
But what shocked him even more was the fact that the mysterious masked youth had managed to wound them both and take on Mason alone, who was the strongest out of all of them, in terms of raw power.
"What has happened to them? And what is the state of all 6 of them after the battle was over?" asked the family head, worried about his grandchildren.
He was hoping that no one had died and although was very pleased with Angela and was ready to pass on the family head position to her after she was ready, the family head still didn\'t want anything to happen to Martha and Damian.
"Sir, Martha and Damian were left unconscious but, hadn\'t suffered severe injuries. Even if they didn\'t have medical attention, they would most likely be fine. However, Mason was on the verge of death after the battle. The masked male also fell unconscious, probably due to exhausting his energy, while Cole and Angela had only suffered minor injuries and were still conscious" reported the subordinate.
"Good job and well done for getting the news. Be careful on your way back to Brooklyn and report back to the family" praised the family head before ending the call with the subordinate.
Since he had already received the information that he needed, he turned off his phone, no longer needing to speak to anyone else and gathered his thoughts.
The spies from my family will probably be sparred by Cole since he has an alliance with Angela and I am amazed by Anglea\'s progress lately. Her power has hardly increased, but her determination and drive have been ignited by that youth\' thought the family head to himself.
\'I am hoping that Martha and Damian are spared and will most likely be held by the Epstein Family until the alliance is officially formed. But that masked man is amazing if he really was able to defeat Mason despite being at the same age as them. However, why did his cultivation appear to only be at rank 4 of the Novice Cultivation level?\' wondered the family head.
Overall he was pleased with the outcome of the battle, and so was the Epstein Family, since most of the Epstein Family elders and members disliked Mason and the great elder who were very arrogant and authoritative.
However, the other large cultivation families in New York along with the mysterious, evil organisation that hid in the shadows, were disappointed by the result of the battle and wary of the alliance that had been formed between the two large families.
It was something that was completely unexpected and even large cultivation families in other cities, that usually wouldn\'t care much about what happened in areas outside of their own domain, were shocked by the news.
A single battle decided the course of the next generation of the large cultivation families in New York and a battle for territory, power, resources and knowledge, seemed to be continuously getting closer.
"What do you mean the Maxwell Family and Epstein Family are already on the verge of forming an alliance?" bellowed the Lin Family Head who was known and rumoured to be the most powerful cultivator in New York.
He was said to be the one that was closest to breaking through the Advanced Cultivation Level and was not only feared in New York, but also in many places around the world.
The large cultivation families knew of other cultivation families and organisations in other cities and even in other countries, but they would never interfere with each other\'s business.
It had become an unwritten rule that every city would not trade or interfere with the cultivation families from other cities unless there was an emergency or special reason for it.
Becuase of that, the cultivation families in New York that were looking to expand, could only go for territory in New York unless they wanted to be attacked by cultivation families from other cities.
If one family was able to gain control of a large city, they would then be recognised by the country\'s cultivators as one of the powerhouses and many would seek to join them.
However since the power of the country\'s cultivators was split into so many small groups, organisations and families, there was always conflict and the country wasn\'t developing as much as some other countries in terms of cultivation.
At the top of the government and especially in the military, there were secret organisations and groups that were run by cultivators who held great power and true power around the world was cultivation.
"Sir... sir, the spies that we had sent to the Epstein Family arena have given us a report and most of them were captured by the Epstein Family and will probably be interrogated then killed" reported his assistant who was stuttering and shaking in fear because of the aura of the Lin Family head.
"Tell me everything that happened" ordered the Lin Family head as he retracted his aura to allow his assistant to speak.
The assistant was no longer shaking in fear, but was still stuttering and didn\'t dare to look at the Lin Family\'s glaring eyes directly as he reported everything that he knew about the situation to him.
"It seems we really do need to form an alliance with another family sooner than I thought" mumbled the Lin Family Head to himself.
"Or we could always turn back to them for help" he added to himself as he began thinking about what to do next.
