The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 229



"Mr Powers, you don't know. Old Master Gooding discovered the details surrounding the Star Sect in the secret vault in Somerland. As for why we're cooperating with all of you, it's because Old Master Gooding not only thinks you guys are very strong, but you're also Krum's rivals." explained Ben.


“Alright, I'll come back and tell the chairman about this. If we confirm that everything you say is true, then we can continue to talk about cooperation between us. If we manage to cooperate, the Star Sect will protect you from Krum and your family will not have to fear them anymore. Otherwise, my family would be in danger and the Star Sect would have no hope of reappearing. Only after Mason died, we need not fear anyone and can show ourselves openly.”


“Alright, if the Star Sect agrees, we will do everything according to the family plan Gooding.”


The two quickly agreed, and both sides immediately reported back the results of the discussion.


When these two teams work together, they will not lose to Krums and Lovewoods. They may have some advantages.


After all, the Krums and Star Sect were rivals. These two sects were deadlocked when facing each other because they were equal. Lovewoods are no match for the Gooding family.


It's just that Goodings doesn't know that Mason has been healed by David and that he has recovered to the peak of his powers. Moreover, he could still survive another ten years. If they knew of this, they would immediately choose not to cooperate with the Star Sect. Otherwise, if they were revealed, their families would lose their foothold in Somerland.


The best result the Gooding family could hope for was to be expelled from Somerland like the previous hidden family, the Haran family. Another possibility is that they may disappear altogether from the historical record.


Many families in Somerland are still working with hidden sects and families as they seek refuge for the hard times to come.


The stronger a family was, the stronger the sect they worked for. It could be imagined how chaotic the world was shortly after these hidden sects and families came out of hiding.


No one knew which families and sects would rise and which sects and families would be destroyed.


But none of this has anything to do with David. He is still continuing his money-spending plan. He was still not strong enough after he entered the God Rank. Therefore, he still needs to keep working hard.


David takes Celia to the Starry Night Hotel. He didn't bring her here to play around. On the other hand, the two are very attached to each other and are always united. There was no need for them to play around in the hotel. They're here to party.


The day before, David received a call from Empress Elsa Winters where she invited him to attend this party. Plus, Elsa even said she would sing Flower Woman, which David wrote last time.


David wanted to refuse, but after remembering how Celia liked Elsa, he thought this would be a good opportunity for her to invite Celia along. But when the two entered the hotel and went to the hall where the party was held, they were stopped by security officers.


What made David curious was that the two guards were in their forties or maybe fifties, and they were Tiger Rankers. Since when were Tiger Rankers everywhere? Now, they're also the guards guarding the door?


Although they were only at the beginning of Tiger Rank, they were definitely more skilled than ordinary people. When he thought of Elsa's strength, these people didn't seem that easy anymore. Elsa must be from a strong and influential family.


Furthermore, both of them were only wearing security clothing as disguises. They also need to be a family member.


"Hello, we are invited to this party" David told two Tiger Rank experts wearing security suits at the door.


"Do you have an invitation card?" ask the security guard.


“I was invited over the phone, so I don't have it."


"OKAY. But I'm sorry. I can't let you in without an invitation card. This is not an ordinary party, so please come out.”


David had no choice but to contact Elsa. He was already here so he couldn't leave disappointed, right?


Also, when Celia heard that Elsa was going to sing the song she wrote for her, she was overjoyed for a long time. Wouldn't he let her down if they came back now?


Immediately.The door of the hall opens, and Elsa exits.


"Miss!"


The two Tiger Rankers in security suits saluted Elsa.


"They are my friends!" elsa said to the two of them with no expression on her face.


“Ya, Miss!”


Elsa ignored the two of them and said to David with a smile, “David, you have finally arrived here. I thought you wouldn't come.”


“Hello, Miss Winters. This is my boyfriend, Celia. You've met before. He really liked your song, so I brought him here.” David said with a grin.


“Halo, I'm Elsa Winters. I'm so happy to meet you.” Elsa extended her hand and said to Celia.


“Hello, Elsa. I'm Celia. I really like your songs!" Celia smiled happily and shook Elsa's hand.


"thank you. Let's just go. Let's go in first."


After Elsa said that, she gestured to the two of them. Celia held David's hand and walked into the hall.


"Be careful if someone comes to cause trouble." Before Elsa left, she said to the two people at the door.


"We understand. Don't worry, Miss!"


David and Celia walked into the hall. There were many people in the hall, and the atmosphere in the place was very lively. It seemed like it was no different from any other party.But after scanning the hall with the power of his mind, David discovered that there were many masters in the hall. There were even some Dragon Rank members, not to mention Tiger Rank experts and first-rate experts.


"David, you can invite Celia to go around first. There is food and drink here, there is even a dance floor so you can dance. I have to take care of something so I can't stay here with you right now. I'm sorry, I'll be back when I'm done" Elsa told David in an apologetic tone after she stepped in.


“You don't have to be too polite to me, Miss Winters. Go and continue your business. Celia and I are here just to hear you sing." said David humbly.


"Good! You can look around freely. After this, I'll sing Flower Woman, which you wrote. The song was very well written and it was perfect for me. I really like it, thank you!”


“Good if you like it, Miss Winters.”


“Please help yourself."


Elsa did not continue the conversation with David. After he finished speaking, he left. Today, the Winters family is also one of the main characters of the party. Therefore, he had to arrange many things.


The entire hall was divided into sections. Some people chatted and ate dessert, there was even a dance floor for dancing.


David led Celia around the hall. It was boring attending a party where they didn't know anyone because everyone in the hall was busy chatting with the people in their circle.


Many young people focus on David and Celia. When they do, their eyes will light up. However, when they saw Celia holding David's arm, they could guess that the two of them were a couple, so they did not dare to do anything.


Of course there are some of them who come to flirt or invite them to dance on the dance floor. But they were all rejected by David and Celia.


David also saw some actors and singers in this place, but he did not see Marie. He must have been busy with the movie that David invested in.


Among the various celebrities, David only knew Marie and Elsa. He felt that if there were no celebrities at a fancy party like this, the party would feel cheap. After all, she had never attended a party without a celebrity until now.


Both of them got bored after walking around and stopped in the dining room. Celia loved the dessert here and the two of them started to enjoy the sumptuous meal here. After a while, they suddenly heard a voice in the hall.


"Hi all. Welcome to the party. Everyone present was a friend of the Winters family and the Patton family. Cooperation between our families today is essential for the future development of our families. Next, please allow the people representing both families to say a word about this collaboration."


Everyone in the hall stopped what they were doing and looked at the stage.


Even if David did not want to leave, he could not get out of the crowd, so he could only follow Celia.


Half an hour later, the person on the stage finally finished his speech.


David finally understood what kind of party this was. It is a party where the Winters family, represented by Elsa, and another family named the Patton family, officially announce their partnership and marriage.


Cooperation through marriage is the most powerful and common form of cooperation. The Patton family is one of the older families in the Capital, and they have a deep history and background. Their existence was second only to the four leading families in the Capital.


Meanwhile, the Winters family was supposed to be a hidden family, so their strength could not be underestimated. It is seen from Elsa, the daughter of the Winters family, and the two Tiger Rank masters guarding the door.


Cooperation between the two families can be considered as cooperation between two authorities. As a person representing the Winters, it was definitely not Elsa who would be married. The man who will marry the Patton family is his cousin, Gina Winters. She was a beautiful young lady in her twenties.


Parties involving the marriage of the two families usually only involve guests who are very close to both families. Therefore, David does not understand why Elsa invited him to the party. Is it because he wrote her a song?


It might not. There must be another reason. Elsa is busy right now. As the person representing the Winters family, he still had to take care of a lot of things. He said he would look for David after he was done, so when the time came, he would find out why
