Chapter 1102: Happiness for Some, Worry for Some

“Mystic late phase peak?” Xiao Ben froze- that was insanely strong, much stronger than Uncle Pi! Plus, with that strength, there was the name of the hidden House Pi that they could use- who would dare cross them once they put that on the table? Especially after Pi Zhishan said that he was already an Earth class- this only shocked him even more! Fortunately for him, he decided to abide by Pi Zishan’s arrogance- otherwise they really would be done for!

Pi Zhishan was already an Earth class this young… Just how strong is this hidden house? Yet their strength was a good thing now that they happened to be working together- the stronger they were, the higher House Xiao would soar!

“Of course, the practitioners we send from our house will only be protecting and monitoring you- if you think that you’ll get to order them around like Uncle Pi, it’d be impossible!” Zhishan said clearly- these were not maids they were sending!

“I understand!” Xiao Ben nodded quickly. He wasn’t thinking of ordering them around at all, of course not! “But, if someone were to come cause House Xiao trouble…”

“Don’t you worry- if that were to happen, the masters we’ll send will take care of it!” Zhishan said with a wave of his hand, “What I meant was ordering them around like workers. If you’re in trouble, they wouldn’t just sit idly by- we’re working together now, after all!”

“That’s perfect!” Xiao Ben said, very pleased at the promise. This was the result he wanted- as long as House Pi would be able to help out when they got into trouble, that’d be fine. As for ordering them around… He will be trying to please them all the time, of course he wouldn’t do anything like that!

“If so, then we’ll stop discussions here,” Zhishan said faintly, “We’ll leave it to you in the future. The practitioners will arrive within these two days- I’ll be returning to my grandfather to make my report now!”

“Master Pi, please wait a moment…” Xiao Ben called out, “As for the business… Is it up to us, or are there certain projects or plans you have in mind?”

“That isn’t a concern- as long as there is money earned, anything goes,” Zhishan said casually.

“Um… Then will I be allowed to spread the news that House Pi is now backing House Xiao?” Xiao Ben said after nodding.

This was extremely vital- if House Pi wanted this to be a secret, then their support would be much weaker. Passively letting people understand this would result in a far different effect compared to them spreading the powerful news on their own!

If they were to spread the news, saying that the hidden house Pi were now backing them up… People would be coming to House Xiao for partnerships on their own, trying to give House Xiao benefits! Otherwise, they’d have to be the ones knocking door to door, trying to hint to the person that they had the Pi family backing them up… Of course, they didn’t even know if people would believe that.

“Of course,” Zhishan smiled slightly, agreeing. This was naturally something that they would allow, since they wouldn’t be able to hide this information from the committe in the first place- instead of hiding and ducking around, they might as well made it official and loud! After all, there was a reason for all of this, so people wouldn’t speak up!

“That’s great- if that’s the case, we’ll be avoiding a lot of trouble!” Xiao Ben nodded happily, seemingly already visualizing the glorious future of their house! The meeting of the noble houses was coming up, too, and Xiao Ben smiled happily- not only would their standing and rank not drop, it would even go up!

Whoever messed with House Xiao, after all, messed with House Pi!

PI Zhishan and Pi Zhihai had only come to discuss business- Zhishan was the first in line to House Pi’s seat, and so naturally he couldn’t stay long. Zhihai, on the other hand, was only here to see the world and experience it.

Zhihai was the type of person without much ambition- but that made Zhishan all the more happy. Having a powerful brother who trained to become stronger without thinking about stuff like authority or personal glory? What was there to hate?

Zhishan and Zhihai left, and Xiao Ji and Xiao Ben started laughing loudly! There was hope for them now, and all their troubles were gone! Everything was fine now, and House Pi- they didn’t even go take a look at Uncle Pi, meaning that they didn’t care about him! This made the Xiaos relax as well!

Xiao Ben was afraid that Uncle Pi’s incident would anger the two, and if they started to address it, it would really be troublesome… But that wasn’t a worry at all! At the same time though, it seemed like he would no longer be able to have his revenge against Lin Yi anymore. He was planning to bring the avengers from House Pi straight to Lin Yi right away, but they didn’t care about Uncle Pi at all, so they of course they wouldn’t get revenge or anything…

But the situation now wasn in their favour as their future was guaranteed. Xiao Ben turned to Xiao Ji, “Big brother, quickly- get the word out that the hidden House PI is now supporting us, and we’re now officially business partners!”

“Alright, leave it to me!” Xiao JI patted his chest- bragging was something he loved to do, and this wasn’t just simple bragging- it was the truth!

This piece of news flew around fast, and all the noble houses received them with mixed feelings!

Some were happy, some were troubled, some didn’t care…

The happy ones were House Wu- Wu Gonggao felt that his garndson, Wu Chentian, was close with Xiao Wangdao and Xiao Wangba, and so they’d receive good benefits in the future as well!

The happy ones were lesser in number, however, and the most troubled houses were House Liu and House Chen!

Both of them were weaker houses, and while there was still a sense of danger, House Xiao had just recently fallen to the bottom- they had room to breathe. Yet, House Xiao was now soaring up in the skies, and it resulted in House Liu and House Chen sitting at the bottom instead!

House Liu didn’t have any practitioners, and House Chen only had the Golden class early phase Chen Yutian… Both houses had powerful elders with high positions in the business world, but they were old. While they were still alive, people would give them face and respect- but the moment they left the world, their houses’ strength would plummet!
