Chapter 566: The Secrets of the Hidden Families

Tina felt that things were not as simple as they seemed. The notion of telekinesis and other such supernatural abilities, typically found only in novels, utterly astonished her. Yet, her shock did not last long; she believed the world was full of wonders and never viewed it through a narrow lens. "So, that's how it is. Quite interesting," she remarked.

As they spoke, their takeout arrived, and they ate while continuing their conversation. "I've heard that the hidden families are secretive clans. Why has the White family gone public with us? And the Lyon family, why were they expelled from the hidden families?" Tina asked while eating.

Chewing on a duck neck, Brandon replied, "A major reason the Lyon family was expelled was their restlessness. They were too greedy, attempting to monopolize the market using the rights and reputation of the hidden families, aiming to control the national economy. They even persecuted the White family, trying to seize their weapons authority. When we discovered this, we decided to expel them and cripple their unique skills to prevent further harm."

"As for why our family and the White family went public..." Brandon burped, "that's a long story. You might have heard about the incident where someone offended the hidden families and vanished overnight." Tina nodded, "I've heard about it. Did it have anything to do with the Brookes family or the White family?"

"Nothing at all. Our family is very amiable," Brandon took a sip of Coke. "The family that was annihilated was also a part of the hidden families, just on the fringe. They were the Solomon family."

Tina's fingers tightened suddenly. The Solomon family! The only person she knew from that family was Master Tam, whose real name was Feng Chi. She had never known that her master was also a member of the hidden families. "The Solomon family's unique skill was fortune-telling," Brandon gestured in the air.

Tina was now sure that Master Tam was the descendant of the now-extinct Solomon family, as her master's capabilities were clear only to her.

Brandon drank more Coke. "Though the Solomon family was marginal within the hidden families, they were highly respected. Your grandfather was one of those who respected them greatly. He was close friends with the youngest son of the Solomon family, but that was back when your grandfather was young."
