Chapter 330 Another War?
The fiery glow of the ruined Fang Clan compound faded into the night as Silas soared back into the sky.
Below him, Chengdu began to settle into an uneasy quiet. Civilians had been rescued, and the city had been spared further destruction, but the aftermath of Silas's confrontation with Rai Fang was far from over.
As he hovered in the cool night air, his thoughts churned. The Fang Clan wasn't just another group of rogue Phenomenals—this was a family with deep roots, centuries of legacy, and influence that extended far beyond Chengdu.
Rai Fang's defeat would send a clear message, but Silas knew that the ripples of his actions would reach the farthest corners of the world.
{Master, all immediate threats have been neutralized,} Luna's voice chimed in his helmet.
{Shall I initiate cleanup protocols for the region?}
"Do it," Silas replied.
"But keep the drones focused on the Fang Clan's movements. Rai Fang might be down, but he isn't out. Not yet."
{Understood. There's one additional concern,} Luna said.
{Initial reports from our intel network suggest other Phenomenals families have gotten the news on what happened and are reacting strongly to tonight's events. Several have begun to consolidate their forces, and it appears they may be considering alliances.}
Silas sighed, rubbing his temple. "Of course they are. One family falls, and the others scramble to fill the void. What else?"
{An emergency summit of hidden families has been called,} Luna continued. {The location is still undisclosed, but the primary topic appears to be you.} Discover stories at My Virtual Library Empire
Silas smirked at the irony. "Good. Let them talk. If they want to unify, they'll just make it easier for me to deal with them all at once."

The next morning, the streets of Chengdu were a stark reminder of the battle. Buildings bore scorch marks, and the air was thick with the acrid smell of smoke.
Emergency services worked tirelessly to extinguish lingering fires and provide aid to those affected by the Fang Clan's attack.
Local news outlets struggled to piece together the events of the previous night. Witnesses spoke in hushed tones about the figure in black armor who had appeared like a storm, decimating the Fang Clan and saving the city from certain destruction.
For the civilians Silas had rescued, gratitude was mixed with fear. While they were thankful to be alive, they couldn't shake the image of Silas's overwhelming power.
To most, he was a savior. To others, he was a reminder of how helpless they were against beings like him.

Deep in the heart of the Kunlun Mountains, the remnants of the Fang Clan gathered in their ancestral stronghold. The once-mighty patriarch, Rai Fang, sat slumped on a stone throne, his fiery aura dim and flickering.
His body bore the marks of his battle with Silas—burns and bruises that refused to heal, a constant reminder of his humiliation.
Around him, the surviving members of his clan whispered nervously. Some called for vengeance, their voices filled with anger and desperation. Others advocated retreat, their confidence in Rai Fang's leadership shaken.
"Enough!" Rai Fang's voice boomed, silencing the room. He rose from his throne, his fiery aura flaring briefly before sputtering out again.
"We will not cower in fear of that... man. He is one Phenomenal, and we are a clan with centuries of power. We will rebuild, and we will remind the world why the Fang Clan is to be feared."
"But what of the other families?" one of his advisors asked cautiously. "They are watching us, waiting to see how we respond. If we appear weak—"
"We will not appear weak!" Rai Fang roared, slamming his fist into the armrest of his throne. The stone cracked under the force, but his fire refused to ignite.
"Send word to the summit. If the other families wish to stand against this Silas Kurt, we will join them. Together, we will erase him from existence."

Back in his underground facility, Silas stood before a massive holographic map of the world. Dots of light marked the locations of known Phenomenals families, their territories sprawling across continents. Luna's data streams highlighted recent movements, showing how the families were beginning to converge.
{Master, the Fang Clan appears to be regrouping in their stronghold,} Luna reported.
{Their communication channels suggest they are seeking alliances with other families.}
"Let them," Silas said.
"They'll either turn on each other, or they'll unite and give me a reason to deal with them all at once."

Far from the eyes of the public, the hidden families convened in a secret location—a sprawling estate nestled deep within a mountain range.
Representatives from every major family attended, their expressions ranging from grim determination to outright fear.
At the head of the table sat Lord Arcanis, the elder statesman of the hidden families and one of the oldest Phenomenals alive. His piercing gaze swept over the gathered leaders, his voice calm but commanding.
"We face a threat unlike any we have encountered before," he began.
"Silas Kurt is not just a Phenomenal—he is a force of nature. He has dismantled the Black Hand, defied the world's governments, and now he stands against us. If we do not act, he will destroy everything we have built."
"What do you propose?" asked Lady Selyna Frost, her voice cold and calculating. She had barely recovered from her own encounter with Silas, and her bitterness was evident.
"Unity," Arcanis replied. "If we stand together, our combined power will be more than enough to bring him to his knees."
"And if he defeats us all?" one of the younger leaders asked, his voice trembling. "What then?"
"Then we will have no one to blame but ourselves," Arcanis said gravely. "But I assure you, Silas Kurt is not invincible. He has weaknesses, and we will exploit them."

Back in his facility, Silas watched as Luna pulled up new reports of Phenomenals movements. The summit had ended, and alliances were beginning to form. It was only a matter of time before they made their move.
{The families are consolidating their forces,} Luna said.
{It appears they are preparing for a coordinated strike.}
Silas smiled faintly. "They decided to join hands. Not bad. Let them come, maybe now I will have be a able to have some fun while fighting them."
