The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot-Chapter 726 - 594 Mental Breakdown, Stripping the Vest Again [2 Updates]
Chapter 726: 594 Mental Breakdown, Stripping the Vest Again [2 Updates]
Originally, extreme fear had oppressed their nerves so much that the elders simply couldn’t listen to anything.
Their bodies were shaking uncontrollably.
They had already been scared out of their wits by the Devil and hadn’t recovered yet when they were taken into custody by the Lorentz Family.
Moreover, the person leading the mercenaries was the mysterious ruler of the Lorentz Family who hadn’t appeared for a hundred years.
The Elders Council of the Pazzi Family was nearing mental collapse.
But this name, as if awakening something, made the elders’ bodies tremble, and they lifted their heads with some disbelief.
Completely different from outsiders.
The people of the Pazzi Family naturally had to understand the entire history of the Pazzi Family.
Not the kind that’s written and beautified in history books after being processed in many ways, but the real history.
Xize Laurent, a man in history who made the Pazzi Family tremble at the mention of his name.
To be able to become the unchallenged ruler of the Lorentz Family, Xize’s methods were definitely not inferior.
In the 18th century, Vincent might have been formidable, but Xize ultimately suppressed him and was even younger than him.
This young man sitting on the throne...
It must be a case of two people with the same name!
No, that’s not right.
The Third Elder suddenly shivered again, staring blankly at the young man.
It’s fine if other family heads share a name, but what level of existence does Xize represent for the Lorentz Family?
Would any parent dare to name their child after him?
The Elders Council did not wonder for too long.
"There is retribution in this world," said Xize as he rolled up his sleeves again and smiled, "Otherwise, how come I’m still alive after Vincent made so many attempts on my life, and he ended up being eaten by crows and eagles?"
"!"
This statement was like a thunderclap falling, exploding in the ears of the elders.
The eyes of the Second Elder instantly widened, his gaze fierce: "You, you really are—"
It’s not just the same name; it’s the 18th century Jade Ice Cui’s king, Xize Laurent!
"No... That’s impossible!" The Second Elder refused to believe it, "You’re dead! You’re clearly dead! The Diviner, he also predicted your death!"
His emotions teetered on the verge of collapse, and by the end, he began screaming hysterically.
And, if Xize were not dead, how could the Lorentz Family possibly have retreated en masse?!
It was also during these near two hundred years of retreat by the Lorentz Family that the Pazzi Family had grown stronger,
"Oh, sorry, someone’s got my back, I’m lucky," Xize tapped his hands, "Alright, I can’t be bothered to talk much with you, Job."
Only his personal servants of each generation in the Lorentz Family knew his true identity.
His identity couldn’t possibly be publicized to the whole world.
That would cause panic.
Job came in, holding a syringe in his hand, efficiently injecting each elder with it.
As Xize’s servant, he had to be capable in all aspects of daily service.
"Take them away." Xize stood up, "Take photos for the ones who offered the reward, but they won’t get their prey."
After all, as long as they’re dead, that’s enough.
Job spoke in a low voice, "Master, these people were dealt with by the Devil. You also saw the footage transmitted back by the drone just now. If he storms into the Lorentz Family, we won’t be able to handle it."
Hearing this, Xize pondered.
His body had also just been repaired a few days ago, and he truly couldn’t beat the Devil.
But even if he were in good health, given the Devil’s ability to withstand gunfire all by himself, he wouldn’t stand a chance.
Ancient martial artists really were too terrifying. It was hard to imagine how many ancient martial artists at the Devil’s level existed in the Ancient Martial World.
He wondered if Norton would work.
The guy was quite violent.
Too bad, he was unable to contact this maniac.
Xize took out his mobile phone: "I’ll ask the boss."
[Only love money but also love boss]: Boss, can you beat the Devil? If you can, I’ll keep him for you and trap him for a while.
In the O zone, against ancient martial artists, there isn’t just the one path of high technology weapons.
Alchemy could also be an option.
But even alchemy couldn’t kill an ancient martial artist with such a high level of cultivation.
The Devil’s ancient martial cultivation was completely unfathomable for the O zone, after all, there was too little information.
Those ancestors with two or three hundred years of cultivation were all in closed-door cultivation, hidden from the world in the Ancient Martial World. Who would bother to come to the O zone?
Who knew, the boss replied to him very straightforwardly with six words.
[You can’t beat him, give up.]
Xize: "..."
He looked regretfully at the elders lying on the ground, as if he saw pieces of gold floating past his eyes.
Then he turned and told Job, "Then just slaughter them and hand them over to the Devil."

Ying Zijin put away her phone and walked out.
On the side, Fu Yunshen leaned against the wall, with his legs bent.
He lifted his phone, his peach blossom eyes curved up, "The Lorentz Family sure knows how to take advantage of a situation."
Ying Zijin ate a piece of chocolate, "Hm? They didn’t give you the prey?"
"They did, I had them deliver it for me," Fu Yunshen said nonchalantly, "The bounty just showed as under review, should arrive by tomorrow at the latest, all for you."
Venus Group had cooperated with the Lorentz Family a few times; the Lorentz Family had that much credibility.
He couldn’t be bothered to make another trip back.
Ying Zijin nodded slightly, "As long as it’s given."
She believed that with Xize’s style, when he got the bounty in his hands, he would convert it into gold and then pave a road.
"Today has been a witness to history," Fu Yunshen looked up at the night sky and smirked, "This castle is about to change its surname."
In the Middle Ages, O Continent was quite chaotic, comparable to the current Ancient Martial World.
Many families were exterminated, and many more were established.
No one would have thought that the Pazzi Family, with a history of seven to eight hundred years, would announce its downfall today.
With the Elders Council wiped out, the Pazzi Family’s highest combat power was declared crushed.
Without these combat values, let alone the Lorentz Family, even the other three among The Four Great Financial Groups, the Pazzi Family had no power to contend against.
If the Lorentz Family didn’t come tonight, the other three great financial groups would send people to divide up the Pazzi Family.
And the real fuse—who would have thought that it all started with a trainee from Youth 303 sent by Era Media, who discovered Yun Heyue’s gender and then united with marketing accounts to set the rhythm on Weibo?
Even Xize wouldn’t have expected that.
A small butterfly flapping its wings can cause a storm.

The Lorentz Family moved quickly; within three days, they had already resolved all the issues left by the Pazzi Family.
Companies that were forcefully acquired were returned.
The overworked servants were also released one by one and reassigned to other positions.
As for other members of the Pazzi Family, the Lorentz Family didn’t touch them, acting in accordance with the law.
Without power, they no longer had the means to oppress others.
This news, on a scale of a world war, naturally spread rapidly across the globe.
Old Master Zhong, as the number one surfer on the net, already knew about it.
[Most Trendsetting Elder]: Zijin, have you seen the news? The Pazzi Family is gone, I heard from your secretary that you were there that night, it couldn’t be that the Lorentz Family and the Pazzi Family fought over you, right?
Ying Zijin pressed her forehead.
Although the fall of the Pazzi Family was indeed related to her, Old Master Zhong’s idea was really absurd.
What did he think she was, Cleopatra?
[Grandpa, you’re overthinking it.]
[Most Trendsetting Elder]: Hmm, true, ah well, I have an active imagination. Never mind, as long as you’re alright. We ordinary folks should just watch this as if it were a movie.
No sooner had Old Master Zhong sent this message than another WeChat came in.
[Only Love Money and the Boss]: Boss, do you think I could make a movie about my grudge with the Pazzi Family? People would definitely want to watch it, I already mentioned it to Universal Film, and the other partner is your company, so we can make money together.
[Only Love Money and the Boss]: Boss, aren’t I great?
Ying Zijin: "..."
She felt that Xize and her grandfather might have some common ground.
**
Ancient Martial World.
Xie Family.
Although the Ancient Martial World is closed off to the outside world, the Xie Family, being equal-opponents of The Four Great Financial Groups of O Continent, certainly couldn’t ignore them.
This was the only computer in the Xie Family, located with the Second Elder.
Watching the footage of Devil barging into the Pazzi Family on the computer, the faces of Patriarch Xie and several elders twitched subtly.
On the O Continent, they thought Devil had used face-changing, but in reality, he must have been well over a hundred years old.
But it was different for them as fellow ancient martial artists.
They could tell that Devil was very young, not over thirty years old.
What does an Ancient Martial Grandmaster under thirty signify?
The elders and Patriarch Xie exchanged looks and fell silent.
After a while, Patriarch Xie pondered and spoke, "Second Elder, what do you think, could he be ’Shadow’?"
The Young Master of Martial Arts Alliance was only stronger than Yue Fuyi.
At most, he was a Half-Step Ancient Martial Grandmaster, definitely not at the level to withstand bullets.
In neither the Lin, Xie, nor Yue families was there such a young generation with a high level of cultivation.
The Second Elder narrowed his eyes, "No need to look further, just go to Judicial Hall and see if he’s there."
They had finally found a reason to expel Shadow from the Judicial Hall or even have him killed outright.
