"Huh, you are the arrogant and foolish Second Brother of the Weir Family?" Bai Tang exclaimed. The Weir Family was quite bold. The eldest brother had come to the Alliance to become a space pirate, and the Second Brother was openly attending a banquet at the home of an Alliance General, not afraid of being exposed and captured by the Alliance? However, the man in front of her appeared steady and shrewd, far from the arrogant image people usually had.
"That's me!" Senwen Weir smiled, "I didn't expect my reputation to reach the Alliance."
"I heard it from Shadow Thirteen. The Weir Family and even the entire Empire have been deceived by you."
The shock in Senwen Weir's heart was beyond what Bai Tang could understand. Shadow Thirteen was a secret guard specifically trained by the Weir Family, known for their loyalty and absolutely incapable of betraying the Weir Family. How did Bai Tang manage to make him reveal the secrets of the Weir Family?
"My image was crafted by my dear father; if I weren't like this, I wouldn't have survived to this age."
Another cliché high society struggle. Bai Tang scoffed, already guessing Senwen Weir's purpose for coming to her. She had caused Harry Will to stumble badly; Senwen Weir must want to recruit her to deal with Harry Will together. What made Senwen Weir think she would cooperate with him?
"Harry Will is narrow-minded and vengeful. After you caused him such a big setback, he definitely won't let you off easily. As far as I know, he has already sent his most elite assassination team into Alliance territory, waiting for a chance to kill you," Senwen Weir observed Bai Tang's thoughts.
"Is that so?" Bai Tang replied lightly, her gaze aimlessly scanning the room. It was just an ordinary reception room with no other furniture besides a table and chairs; various drinks and fruits were thoughtfully placed on the table. "Although my abilities aren't very high, it's not easy to kill me."
"Sister Bai Tang is being modest." Senwen Weir felt anxious in his heart. His daring attendance at the Sean Family's banquet was based on information from an undercover agent near Harry Will, who informed him about Bai Tang. He assessed that Bai Tang was highly capable and wanted to join forces against Harry Will. He didn't expect Bai Tang to be slippery and not take his bait.
"Your strength is formidable; the assassination team definitely won't cause you much harm. It's just that having too many flies is annoying; doesn't Sister Bai Tang want to get rid of all those flies?"
"Well, you're not wrong; I do hate flies. However, I can handle a few flies on my own without needing anyone's help." Bai Tang understood Senwen Weir's intentions but didn't want to give him a chance. After all, Senwen Weir was from the Empire, which was hostile towards the Alliance; who knew if his actions had ulterior motives!
"Sister Bai Tang shouldn't underestimate these flies. There are people who excel in assassination and infiltration; they are hard to guard against. Sister Bai Tang can't possibly waste all her time defending against these people, right?"
We have a system in hand, and with the map, it's clear where hidden enemies are located.
"These people come from the Weir Family. I have some understanding of their methods and can help Sister Bai Tang track them down and eliminate them."
"Mr. Senwen, why do you want to collaborate with me?"
"Because we have a common enemy."
"But our positions are different. The Alliance and the Empire are at odds; who knows this isn't a scheme from the Empire!"
"Sister Bai Tang, can you listen to my story of growth?" Senwen Weir suddenly changed the subject.
Bai Tang picked up an apple and took a bite: "You!"
"I'm actually not the biological son of the Lady of the Weir Family. My mother was from the Alliance; she was captured by the Interstellar Skeleton and sold into slavery in the Empire. Because she was beautiful, she was bought by Conrad Will. Conrad Will only coveted my mother's beauty, and once the novelty wore off, he forgot about her. My mother's identity was that of a female slave; no one cared about her, so no one knew that she was already pregnant. Although my mother was cautious, it was impossible to hide her growing belly, and eventually, she was discovered by the Lady of the Weir Family. The Lady originally wanted to dispose of my mother, but at that time, she had been schemed against by other women of Conrad Will and lost her own child, along with her ability to bear children. So, she changed her mind and secretly hid my mother away. After I was born, she took me directly to her side as if I were her own child..." Senwen Weir spoke calmly; if it weren't for his furrowed brow, one would think he was recounting someone else's story.
"Did Conrad Will know about this?" Bai Tang didn't ask about Senwen Weir's biological mother; that poor woman must have been silenced after giving birth.
"Of course he didn't know. The only ones who knew were the Lady's trusted confidants, and they were all silenced."
"Then how did you find out?" Bai Tang asked in confusion.
Senwen Weir smiled: "Allow me to keep this a secret for now, if you don't mind?"
Bai Tang: "It doesn't matter!"
Senwen Weir: "Lady Will is a princess of the Empire royal family. The royal family marrying the princess to the Weir Family is not to win them over; in fact, the First Lady is just a pawn in the Weir Family. Therefore, Lady Will's child is not anticipated by the Weir Family."
"But I heard that Conrad Will dotes on his eldest son very much," Bai Tang chuckled lightly.
Senwen Weir also laughed: "So much so that he has become an arrogant fool!"
"So you are a target!"
"Yes, the so-called favoritism is all for show to the royal family. Otherwise, his other two sons would have their own hidden power, while I have nothing but a bit of money!" Senwen Weir said sarcastically. The way Conrad Will treats his own son is worse than trash.
"Heh, how could someone with nothing possibly keep track of Harry Will's movements? How could they know about my feud with him, and how could they quietly infiltrate from the Empire into the Alliance?" This person before me is a fox in sheep's clothing.
"My influence has been built up little by little over these years, unlike those two second-generation heirs who had their subordinates arranged for them as soon as they came of age," Senwen Weir said. "I spent over twenty years establishing my influence, which still cannot compare to these big families; I can only rely on my own efforts."
"Over twenty years? Are you thirty this year?" Bai Tang asked. Although people from the Future World maintain a youthful appearance due to the injection of Gene Enhancer, it only keeps them looking around thirty or forty. Senwen Weir certainly doesn't look thirty, does he?
