With a loud bang, Kurofuji Ryo slammed his fist onto the table, his heart filled with extreme irritation. He had originally thought that this wedding could bring the Inoue Family to his side to deal with Ling Feng, but he hadn't expected such an incident to occur. Not only had he failed to win over the Inoue Family, but he had also managed to offend members of the Alliance of Gods, who had previously been allies.

"Let's discuss what to do about this situation," Kurofuji Ryo said in a deep voice. In the conference room, other members of the Kuroto Family furrowed their brows in silence.

Kurofuji Ryo glanced at Kurofuji Youshun beside him, and seeing his son's distracted appearance, he let out a cold snort, "Youshun, what do you think we should do about this?"

"Ah!" Kurofuji Youshun looked at his father blankly, his mind not at all on the meeting but still immersed in the events of the wedding.

Seeing his son's clueless expression, a surge of anger rose in Kurofuji Ryo's heart. If it wasn't for this damn kid's request, how could such a thing have happened?

With a sharp slap, Kurofuji Ryo, in front of everyone, smacked Kurofuji Youshun hard across the face, "You damned fool, the Kuroto Family is in such a crisis, and you're still preoccupied with that wretched woman? This is utterly preposterous!"

Kurofuji Youshun hung his head low, his face red with shame, as if he could feel the mocking stares from everyone around him.

Kurofuji Ryo then ignored Kurofuji Youshun and continued, "The Alliance of Gods is powerful, but their foundation is in Europe, and they have no jurisdiction over us in Fusang! But now, with the enemies of the Dragon Group yet to appear, it's not the right time to go to war with the people of the Alliance of Gods. Does anyone have any ideas?"

"Clan Leader, the people from the Alliance of Gods are too arrogant!" An Elder of the Kuroto Family stood up and said, "In my humble opinion, the Alliance of Gods is nothing but a crossing dragon, and compared to them, we need to win over the Inoue Family more! Given the current situation, it's impossible to think of winning over both sides!"

"That may be so, but the Inoue Family is already on the decline! What's there to gain by winning them over?" Another person stood up and argued, "In terms of global power, the Alliance of Gods is stronger than the Inoue Family and more worthy of our efforts to court them!"

"But our Kuroto Family's foundation is in Fusang, should we really offend the Inoue Family just to accommodate the Alliance of Gods?"

...

Noisy arguments soon filled the conference room, and at that moment, a young man sitting to the side let out a light chuckle.

His laughter stood out in the chaotic room, and Kurofuji Ryo turned to look at the smiling young man; he was a junior relative, also a disciple.

"Kuroto Yu, what are you laughing at?" Kurofuji Ryo asked.

"Clan Leader! I am laughing because everyone here has yet to grasp the full scope of the situation!" Kuroto Yu said calmly.

"Kuroto Yu, you're just here to listen on behalf of your father. What gives you the right to speak?" one of the Elders couldn't help but say.

Among all those present, Kuroto Yu had the lowest seniority and power; according to the rules, he indeed didn't have the right to speak.

Kurofuji Ryo waved his hand dismissively, "Given the urgency of the matter, Kuroto Yu, go ahead and share your thoughts."

Adjusting his glasses, Kuroto Yu said, "Very well, Clan Leader. The reason I laughed is because everyone has failed to delve deeply into the full details of the situation! The deceased was named Ace, a disciple of the Sun God, one of the Twelve Main Gods. However, the Sun God is known for his vengefulness among the Twelve Main Gods. Do you think he would let this matter slide easily?"

Everyone fell silent.

Kuroto Yu continued, "Looking at the situation today, the Alliance of Gods doesn't actually take our Kuroto Family or even the whole of Fusang into account. Even if we want to win over the Alliance of Gods, by what means can we do so, or rather, what price must we pay?"

Before anyone could answer, Kuroto Yu continued, "On one hand, there is the Inoue Family, which can be won over, and on the other, the Alliance of Gods, which looks down on us. Do we really need to discuss how to choose? Shouldn't our discussion be about how to deal with the Alliance of Gods?"

"That's easy for you to say!" An Elder said with disdain. "The Sun God is a renowned power in the entire Underworld. Our Kuroto Family..."

"Oh, and how does the Sun God compare to the Dragon King?" Kuroto Yu said indifferently. "I admit that the Sun God is formidable, but compared to the Dragon King, he isn't up to par! If we fear not even the Dragon King, should we be worried about a Sun God?"

The Elder faltered, his face somewhat embarrassed.

Kuroto Yu continued, "Furthermore, according to reliable information received, the Alliance of Gods is currently focusing most of their efforts on Europe, because they have discovered ancient ruins there. I expect that under these circumstances, the Sun God would not forsake the ruins in Europe for our Fusang, right?"

The others exchanged glances.

A look of admiration flashed in Kuroto Ryo's eyes. "But you can't wrap up fire with paper; the Sun God will find out sooner or later, right?"

"Fire can't be wrapped with paper, but if the paper burns up completely, doesn't the fire go out?" Kuroto Yu said dispassionately. "If the people from the Alliance of Gods all die in Fusang, how would the Sun God ever know about the situation here?"

The assembled group couldn't help but gasp in shock; they had not expected this delicate-looking Kuroto Yu to be so ruthless and daring!

Kuroto Yu spoke dispassionately, "The death of Ace is something the people from the Alliance of Gods certainly won't notify the Sun God of immediately. As long as we kill them all and blame their deaths on the Dragon Group, wouldn't the Sun God's target for revenge become the Dragon Group?"

Kuroto Ryo's eyes brightened; if they could indeed eliminate all the people from the Alliance of Gods, that wouldn't be a bad strategy at all!

But the plan had many flaws, and Kuroto Ryo fell into deep thought.

After several minutes of silence, a fierce glint flashed in Kuroto Ryo's eyes, "The men from Anbu, eliminate all the people from the Alliance of Gods tonight, ensuring not a single person survives. Act immediately!"

At that moment, a man cloaked in a black cloak vanished like smoke from the conference room.

Kuroto Ryo, looking up at everyone, said, "We are in a very sensitive period right now and need everyone's concerted efforts to get through this difficulty! If we get through this, we can advance even further, and the power of the Kuroto Family will grow stronger! My fellow clan members, for the sake of the Kuroto Family, even in death, we shall have no regrets!"

The meeting ended, and the Kuroto Family began to move swiftly into action. On one side, they sent people to surround and kill those from the Alliance of Gods, and on the other, the Kuroto Clan Head personally visited the Inoue Family.

Since they were set on killing the people from the Alliance of Gods, it was imperative to bring the Inoue Family onto their warship.
