The Strongest Businessman

Chapter 67 67: Thunder Clan Main Family



The crowd was silenced by the sudden turn of events. They were unable to fathom how someone could beat the 3 big shots fighting for the Dawnlight Heavenly Connection Pill in a bidding war.


The crowd could not help but wonder about the identity of this man. The estimated maximum price of the pill was around 1500 spirit stones but this man took it to a quantitative leap of 500 spirit stones!


On the Balcony where Gil Thunder was in, the young man stood up and greeted the man who just appeared.


"Greetings, Royal Father." Gil Thunder bowed and greeted.


"Oh, if it isn't my son." The man smiled.


"This unfilial son apolozes for not being able to greet father earlier. He was unable to sense father's presence during the duration of the auction. This son ask for forgiveness." Gil Thunder spoke as he bowed. It was surprising how obedient this young heir was now compared to his complacent attitude towards Darius earlier.


"It's fine, son. Father intended it to hide himself from the very start. You may sit now." The man spoke softly like how a father cares for his son.


"Thank you father." Gil Thunder replied.


The entire crowd was in a daze as they heard Gil Thunder's words. He was the his father?! The current head of the Thunder Grand Clan?! The current ruler of the Thunder Clouds City?!?! Was here in the auction hall of the Premier Hall?!


He is the greatest expert of the Thunder Clouds City! It is rumored that he has long reached the peak of the Mortal Severing Realm and his current cultivation is unknown! His name was known by every citizen in the city and has spread all throughout the country.


After knowing that this man was the strongest man in the Thunder Cloud City, they were able to calm their hearts and accept the fact that they weren't able to sense him because if he were to hide himself from them, no one in the city would be able to find him. That was just how powerful the city lord of the Thunder Clouds City is.


"Hahaha, I, Zachary Thunder, thank you all for helping me obtain this pill. I intend to use it on my son, Victor, and gift it to him on his 22nd birthday as he will breakthrough from the​ Breaking Demarcation Realm and formally enter Heavenly Connection Realm soon!" The man who won the bidding just introduced himself and anounced his intentions as he stood up.


The crowd was then able to see his face. A truly handsome man with a large build and the height of 1.9 meters and his gold hair shone as the lights hit it. His smiling face that contained the majesty of a ruler was then showcased to the crowd which made everyone feel like it was the arrival of a king.


"WHAT?!?" The crowd became even more shock of Zachary's announcement! It was already known how Victor Thunder reached the absolute peak of the Origin Realm nearly 2 years ago. It was an unprecedented growth of a cultivator never before seen in the whole country as Victor's name continued to be known all throughout the 6 States.


The reason for his name to be known throughout the 6 States was because of the battle he had with a Mortal Moulting stage criminal. In this battle, he displayed his astonishing talent of Pinnacle 20th Level Palace Establishment Realm and showed heaven defying strength as he trampled the Mortal Moulting expert in 10 moves!


This news shocked the Mystical Clouds Country to its core!! A 20 year-old young reaching the peak of the Origin Realm and slaying a Mortal Moulting expert in 10 moves!! Such an unprecedented feat made the superpowers of the six states go crazy over him and tried everything to make him as their​ disciple.


It was unknown which power he chose to join but one thing was for sure, which ever he chose would receive the blessing of a lifetime. After the battle, he became the undisputed number one talent of the Mystic Red Cloud State and the leader of the Mythical 10. He was later known to be the Thunder Emperor!


But using 2 years to traverse 10 levels, it was another jaw-dropping feat! It should be known that advancing every level in the Mortal Severing Realm is like trying to cross chasms and one could not forget the Mortal Severing Tribulations that comes with every realm. Such talent was unheard of! This caused the people's present to have gazes of awe and envy for this man because he was truly blessed by the heavens to be able to be given a son like Victor Thunder.


The crowd could only congratulate him in response. Endless fawning and praises rained down upon Zachary the following moment.


"City lord Zachary is truly blessed by the heavens to have such a heaven-sent son! If this old one were to have a grandchild who have half the talent of Young Master Victor, then I can rest in peace."


"It seems like the Thunder Clan could be the next Royal Clan of our state if Young Master Victor were to become a Saint!"


"Hahaha, congratulations, Clan Head Zachary. Your​ clan's reputation is likely to soar once more!"


"The Thunder Cloud City might be the next capital of the Mystic Red Cloud! Hahaha!"


...


Zachary smiled blissfully as he received the numerous praises of the crowd. It was because he knew that this prestige was brought by his son. He knew that his son would one day surpass him and bring greatness to their family.


Zachary hid from everyone from the start of the auction because he wanted to have the limelight on him at the end of the auction.With​, his strength, no one would be able to detect his presence. He waited for the right moment to reveal himself by winning the last item which was the Dawnlight Heavenly Connection Pill. After winning the pill, he would flaunt to everyone his son's achievement! And, that was exactly what he did.


Ever since he was young, he was always praised and recognized for his great talent. The prestige of being the one in the limelight made him feel bliss. He was so intoxicated with it that high prestige and invincible power became his goals for pursuing cultivation. When he reached his peak, he was able to achieve this. After becoming the city lord and the clan head of the Thunder Clan, he set his new goal to make his clan even greater than what it is.


With the monstrous talent of his son Victor, he will be able to guide the Thunder Clan to heights that even his ancestors were unable to achieve. Not only does he have Victor, he also has his youngest son, Gil! Another monstrous talent that was gifted to him by the heavens! With the extraordinary sons he have, it may not be too much of a stretch that his Thunder Clan Main Family is the strongest ever since the founding of the Thunder Clan.


"Hahaha, thank you for the praises everyone. I hope that you will all attend the birthday of my son one month from now! Hahaha." Zachary laughed loudly as he invited everyone​ to come to his son's birthday party. Then, something caught his eyes and smiled as he looked towards a certain direction. " Emilia, aren't you going to greet your father?"


""Emilia? Lady Emilia Sparks?! Is the daughter of the city lord?!" Another piece of news which shocked everyone! First, it was the appearance of the rare high class herb named Solarburst Chrysanthemum! Second, it was the Dawnlight Heavenly Connection Pill! Earlier, Zachary anounced that his son, Victor would enter the Heavenly Connection Realm! Now, Zachary claimed that Lady Emilia Sparks of the Moonlight Paradise was her daughter?! What was happening in this world?!


"You. Are. Not. Worthy. To. Be!" Emilia Spark's beautiful countenance turned grim as she turned around and left the balcony she was occupying with her guards. Zachary could only sigh and look dejected as he watched Emilia leave.


The crowd was speechless not because of Emilia's departure but because of her not denying Zachary's claim of her being his daughter. She instead left by leaving the words, "You are not worthy to be.". Emilia did not bother to deny it but instead used this chance to berate Zachary which meant that Zachary Thunder was the father of Emilia Sparks! It can also be interested that their relationship is extremely grave.


The crowd could infer that something unfortunate must have happened to make the relationship of father and daughter this terrible. But what they were truly wondering about was how did the daughter of the Thunder Clan Head become the Moonlight Paradise Mistress? What happened between them?


There was no news about any of this prior from today. They also did not understand why Zachary decided to disclose this secret to them. Zachary has lived for 400 odd years and was known to have several wives and concubines as well as sons and daughters. But they never received any information about his relation with Emilia Sparks. There were no records​ of there of Zachary having a daughter named Emilia.


According to public knowledge, Emilia Sparks was just over 33 years old this year and she was able to inherit the position of the Mistress of the Moonlight Paradise 3 years ago when she reached the peak of the Mortal Moulting Realm because of her amazing aptitude in Moonlight Arts.


Zachary's recent wife was married to him 25 years ago which gave birth to Victor and Gil Thunder and his previous woman was married to him 50 years ago but​ he soon discovered that she was unable to give birth to a child. However. this woman was a bewitching beauty and Zachary was extremely fond of her. Ultimately, he still kept her as his wife despite not being able to give birth.


The timeline of the two wives of Zachary was far from each other. Thus, it meant it was impossible to for either of them to give birth to the 33 year-old Emilia. Could it be that she was an offspring of an unofficial wife or concubine or was it something else?


This matter made the heads of the crowd ache from overthinking but they moved this matter aside for now and focused in attempting to curry favor with Zachary. After some pleasantries, Zachary and Gil has left the Premier Auction Hall and bade farewell to everyone.


The crowd inwardly sighed as they dispersed because this auction actually had so many twists​ and turns. The items and the sudden revelations of this auction was really gobsmacking.


______________


On the topmost balcony, Dylan watched the dispersal of the crowd. He was also informed by Sheldon and Azelmek about the matters of the Thunder Clan Main Family. Sheldon and Azelmek left just moments ago to manage the gains of tonight's auction. Dylan remained as he said to himself.


"Hm... What a peculiar family... But maybe I could use this as well." Dylan merely smiled as his eyes wondered and his thoughts unknown.
