When Chen Yu stepped out from the grand temple doors, it had already turned completely dark.

His official car was still waiting where he had left it.

Rubbing his sore back, Chen Yu sighed and slowly made his way to the car and sat inside.

"Let's go." He half-reclined in the back seat, tiredly waving his hand, "Back home."

Driver: "..."

Realizing that the car hadn't started yet, Chen Yu instinctively opened his eyes, and his expression instantly changed.

In the front row of the official car, besides the shivering driver, there was now a middle-aged man.

"Chen Yu, my dear." The middle-aged man turned around, smiled, and extended his right hand, "Good evening."

Chen Yu: "...Family Head Li."

"That's me." Seeing that Chen Yu had no intention of shaking his hand, Family Head Li wasn't embarrassed at all; he withdrew his hand, his tone as usual, "We've met before, some days ago."

"Lord Li, do you need me for something?"

"There are some matters," Family Head Li nodded. "But they're too complex for a few words. Chen Yu, my boy, how about we discuss this over at my residence? I'll prepare food and drinks, and we can talk all night long."

"That won't be necessary." Chen Yu declined, "The final exams are imminent, and I need to study."

Family Head Li: "I'll also arrange some beauties."

"Such generosity is truly hard to decline." Chen Yu sighed, waving his hand, "Then let's go."

Driver: "..."

The Li Family.

As a notable clan within the Transcendent realm.

Their residence was not as Chen Yu had imagined of carved fences and bright lights made of gold and jade.

A straightforward manor, a very ordinary little courtyard.

In a low, short-tile-roofed house, one table, four dishes, eight bottles of wine.

In an empty living room, two chairs, six servants, ten beauties.

"My friend, please take a seat," Family Head Li graciously pulled out a chair for Chen Yu, his gaze sharp."

This young man before him was very strange.

To take revenge for a perceived seduction of his daughter, he had sent out two assassins.

Both were roughly D-level in strength.

Although, in the entire realm of the Transcendents, D-level ability holders were neither high nor low, assassinating Chen Yu, a student of F- ability who hadn't yet completed his studies, was indeed using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

But what was the result?

Both assassins failed and died without intact bodies!

As the head of a great family clan, he naturally realized the gravity of the situation. He promptly abandoned the idea of further assassination attempts and began investigating Chen Yu's background.

What happened next deterred him from even "investigating." Read latest chapters on empire

This Chen Yu...

Had swallowed a "Soul Pearl" without any harm to himself!

What did this imply?

It implied that behind Chen Yu, the high echelons of the Supernatural Alliance wielded a terrifying power that covertly altered the punishment results.

No other explanation could clarify how Chen Yu, who had "shanked" the advancement rules of the Supernatural Alliance, managed to emerge unscathed.

At least, as the head of this great family clan, he was far from capable of achieving such a feat.

Feeling the "crisis," he disregarded the cold sweat rising all over his body and immediately took drastic measures in secret, erasing all traces of the "assassination of Chen Yu" plan from the upper and lower ranks and destroyed all related intelligence.

And tonight, he was hosting Chen Yu.

First, to see where the land lay.

Second, to offer benefits.

Even if he couldn't ally with Chen Yu, at the very least, he couldn't let the great Li Family be dragged into the abyss...

With this thought, the face of Family Head Li showed an even friendlier smile, pointing to the pulled-out chair, "Chen Yu my boy, don't just stand there. Sit!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu instinctively covered his waist, "I've been sitting all day, let me rest for a bit."

"Ah??" Family Head Li was bewildered.

After a moment of silence, Chen Yu quickly changed the subject, looking around, "You don't have any assassins around here, do you?"

The head of the Li Family's eyes dramatically shifted, only to quickly converge back to a smile, "You're joking, classmate. Who still has assassins these days? These are all servants from my household."

"Oh." Chen Yu nodded, sitting in the chair and pointing at the dishes on the table, "Then there's no poison in this food, right?"

"Truly...truly humorous." The Family Head of Li Family's voice was dry as he picked up some meat with chopsticks, chewed, and swallowed, "Why would you think that?"

"Then there's no poison in this wine, right?" Chen Yu pointed to the wine glass.

With suppressed anxiety, the Family Head of Li Family picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Then there's no poison here, right?" Chen Yu pointed towards a beautiful lady standing by the table.

Family Head of Li Family: "..."

Suppressing the rising anger within, the Family Head of Li Family paused briefly, then forced a smile, "Chen Yu, my dear lad, my Li family always acts upright and never stoops to underhanded tactics. We have no grudges against each other, why would I harm you?"

"Then why did you invite me here?"

"Just wanted to talk about some things."

"Cut to the chase." Chen Yu gestured with his hand, "Cowboy's very busy."

"The first thing I want to mention is..." the Family Head of Li Family's brain switched gears quickly, choosing his words carefully, "I've learned that your transcendent ability seems to have been upgraded?"

"Yes."

"And it's somewhat similar to the Li Family's ability, 'Roaming Snake'?"

"No, not the same." Chen Yu waved his hands, "Only my muscles and skin can become soft and bend. The Li Family's 'Roaming Snake' can even bend bones and organs, right? Can't compare with yours."

"Oh." The Family Head of Li Family nodded, then asked, "Chen Yu, are you still single?"

"What about it?"

Family Head of Li Family seriously said, "I have a niece, twelve years old. Exceptionally talented, beautiful, and gentle. Since your ability is quite similar to the Li's, maybe we can..."

"Not driving a kiddie ride." Chen Yu interjected.

Family Head of Li Family: "... then, my Li family recently acquired a secret treasure that can..."

"Enough already."

Chen Yu stood up impatiently, looking directly at the Family Head of Li Family, "I'm indeed very busy, so no beating around the bush, okay? Isn't it just that you sent someone to assassinate me, and now that you've found I'm tough to handle, you want to curry favor and live in peace?"

"You..."

The Family Head of Li Family felt as if struck by lightning, thrown off by Chen Yu's direct approach.

Everyone is part of the "elite society," how can we talk like this?

"Let's just cut to the chase." Chen Yu was nonchalant, "Be practical, verbal evasion is useless. Just tell me what compensation the Li Family is going to offer. If it's suitable, we can reconcile. If not, then we'll continue to clash."

"..."

The Family Head of Li Family's expression was as somber as water, he was silent for a long while, his tone icy, "Everyone else, leave."

"Yes."

The servants and the maidservants in the living room, who had already been shaking with fear, quickly dispersed at the command.

"Chen Yu, there seems to be some misunderstanding." Family Head of Li Family walked up to the table, sat down facing Chen Yu, "I too discovered recently that people from my Li family seem to have been involved in an assassination attempt against you. Upon hearing the news, I immediately launched an internal investigation within my family.

However, no matter what, this is a failure in my management, and, on behalf of the Li Family, I sincerely apologize to you."

"Then I believe you." Chen Yu didn't weigh in, nodded, and said, "What's the compensation?"

"... It seems you have something in mind already." The Family Head of Li Family squinted, his tone lowering, "Please speak. Whatever the Li Family can procure, we will provide."

"The compensation I want consists of two parts." Chen Yu held up two fingers, "No problem, right?"

"Please speak."

"The first is an alpha wave generator." Chen Yu lowered his voice, "OK?"

"That kind of device..." the Family Head of Li Family hesitated, "It's on the Alliance's list of banned items. What do you want it for?"

"I'll fly airplanes with it, it's none of your business. Just say if you can provide it."

"... Okay, I'll try to get one."

"Thanks." Chen Yu suppressed his bubbling joy, picked up a wine glass from the table, and while concealing his feelings, drank it, "I'll drink to you first."

I hadn't hoped for much, yet I managed to get this thing sorted.

Is this what they call the "main character" aura?

"And the second compensation?" The Family Head of Li Family looked keenly, "What is it next?"

"The second compensation is even simpler."

With a "snap" as he set down the wine glass, Chen Yu's lips curved into a smile.

"Keep sending people to assassinate me."

"Don't stop."
