Chapter 16

Yanlong did not expect that when he called Canglang to inquire about Ye Tianchen, Canglang's attitude would become so tough, not wanting to talk much with him. To view Ye Tianchen's military records, he had to go through the proper procedures, which made Yanlong even more puzzled.

Canglang was someone Yanlong knew very well. This guy was one of the three great combat soldiers of China, extremely proud. For him to personally list the file of an ordinary special forces soldier as a top national secret was truly unbelievable.

Ye Tianchen learned that the Qin family had bribed the bully Li Tie in the capital, secretly planning to assassinate his father. He did not immediately take action. This matter needed to be handled carefully. If he went to the Qin family now, it would cause a huge earthquake, and the Ye family would not be spared. Although Ye Tianchen did not like the people in the old Ye family residence, they were still blood-related to his father. If anything happened to them, his father, Ye Hong, would not stand idly by.

Returning to the villa, it was already past three in the morning. Ye Tianchen opened the door and carefully walked in. He had been out since morning after seeing the newspaper content and only returned now. During this time, his mother and sister had called him many times, but he did not answer, fearing they would worry, so he even turned off his phone.

As soon as he walked into the villa's hall, the lights turned on with a click. Ye Tianchen's father, Ye Hong, was sitting on the sofa smoking. Looking at Ye Tianchen, he said, "Come and sit down, let's chat."

Glancing at his father, Ye Tianchen walked over. He felt that his father, Ye Hong, had something to say to him, but he did not know what it was.

"Since you came back, I've noticed a big change in you. I want to know why..." Ye Hong said, taking a puff of his cigarette.

"Dad, there are many things I can't tell you now. What I can say is, for twenty years, I have been unfilial. From now on, I will stand by you and support this family, not allowing anyone to disturb our peaceful life."

As he spoke, Ye Tianchen took a cigarette from the pack on the coffee table, lit it, and took a deep drag. He knew his current changes would confuse his parents, but he absolutely could not tell them that he was a reborn god-level ability user. This would not only be of no benefit to his family but could also bring disaster.

According to Ye Tianchen's understanding, there were many experts in the world, both in the post-apocalyptic era and in this life. There were many ability users and martial arts experts, especially in the capital, where a slight misstep could lead to an unknown death. This made Ye Tianchen more determined to restore and enhance his abilities. Without absolute strength, how could he protect his family and safeguard what he now had?

Ye Hong looked at his son. He truly felt the change in his son, but he did not know why. However, seeing his son grow up and become sensible was a comfort.

"I got a message that the Luo family's two grandsons, Luo Tao and Luo Lei, were beaten up. I want to hear the truth from you. Did you do this?"

Hearing his father's words, Ye Tianchen was taken aback. He did not expect the news to spread so quickly that even his father knew. It seemed that the beating of Luo Lei and Luo Tao by him had already spread throughout the capital by now. He wondered what the situation would be like the next day.

"Dad, let me handle these matters. I don't want you to get involved. I just want our family to be happy," Ye Tianchen did not answer directly.

Even so, Ye Hong was surprised. He had asked the question casually, thinking it was very unlikely that his son Ye Tianchen had done it. But now, Ye Tianchen's response clearly indicated that he had. Regardless of whether his son had the strength, such courage was astonishing. The Ye family's status had long declined, far inferior to the Luo family. How would they deal with this offense?

"Son, the Luo family is quite powerful. We..."

"Dad, I will handle it. Don't worry, trust me!" Ye Tianchen interrupted his father Ye Hong, speaking seriously.

The reason Ye Tianchen interrupted his father was that he understood his father. His father was not worried about his own safety but did not want to cause trouble for the Ye family. Ye Hong was a filial son, always thinking about the family.

Ye Hong was taken aback, then smiled. No matter what, his son had truly grown up, which was a cause for joy. He then took out a contract and handed it to Ye Tianchen, saying, "This is from the Qi family. I wrote your name on it. From now on, you are the chairman of the Sea King Group. The remaining fifty percent of the shares are distributed among others. How to handle it is up to you."

Taking the contract, it was clearly stated that the Qi family had given Ye Tianchen fifty percent of the Sea King Group's shares, with the rest held by others.

The Sea King Group was one of the top groups in China, with significant economic control. The Qi family held seventy percent of the Sea King Group's shares, which they had acquired through various means. Now, transferring fifty percent to Ye Tianchen made him the largest shareholder, with a net worth of several billion, making him a major businessman.

"The Qi family is quite efficient. When will you become the Party Secretary of the city, Dad?" Ye Tianchen asked with a smile.

"Probably in about half a year. By the way, the Qi family said to go to the Sea King Group tomorrow noon to sign a divorce agreement to avoid future trouble."

"No problem. Dad, you go to rest. I'll wash up and go to bed."

Watching his father, Ye Hong, go up to the second floor of the villa and enter his room to sleep, Ye Tianchen remained sitting on the sofa in the hall, frowning. On the surface, the Ye family seemed calm, but in reality, it was fraught with danger. Many forces wanted to deal with the Ye family. Without mentioning distant threats, the Qin family and the Luo family, two major families, would not let the Ye family off easily. There were many crises to face.

However, Ye Tianchen did not want his parents and sister to get involved, as it was too dangerous. He did not want them to be unhappy or unsafe. He would bear all the storms and rains alone, and anyone who dared to challenge him would face his fists.

Ye Tianchen returned to his room, sat cross-legged on the bed, and closed his eyes. In the post-apocalyptic era, he used this method to train his abilities. Now, feeling the crisis facing the Ye family, he was even more determined to quickly strengthen himself and enhance his abilities.

Ability users ranged from level one to level nine, with higher levels being more powerful. Above level nine were the Duke, King, Emperor, and God levels. Ye Tianchen had dropped from the God level to the Duke level, a three-level drop. His abilities had significantly weakened, and the energy in his meridians was very thin. It was almost impossible to activate the ability core in his brain and gather energy from nature.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Ye Tianchen closed his eyes and slowly activated the ability core in his brain, sensing the energy in every inch of his meridians, gradually gathering it. However, it was too thin, and the core's fluctuations were too small, only becoming more intense during battles with strong opponents.

"It seems I need to find some strong opponents to train with, or my abilities won't improve," Ye Tianchen opened his eyes and said to himself.

At this time, in the large estate of the Qi family, a second-rate family in the capital, a villa was still lit. Qi Changsheng, the head of the Qi family, was talking to his eldest son, Qi Yaguang. Qi Yaguang was Qi Ruxue's brother and the only grandson of the Qi family. Upon learning that his father had given fifty percent of the Sea King Group's shares to Ye Tianchen, he was furious.

"Dad, why did you have to give half of the Sea King Group's shares to the Ye family? Making Ye Tianchen's father the Party Secretary of H City is already a good compensation. Was it necessary?" Qi Yaguang asked, somewhat angrily.

"Yaguang, is this how you speak to your father?" Qi Changsheng glared at his son, somewhat annoyed. He could not understand why his intelligent self had such a rash and unproductive son who did not think things through.

"Dad..."

"I know the Sea King Group was seventy percent owned by our Qi family, and you have been managing it for years. However, this time, we need to dissolve the engagement with the Ye family. Without proper compensation, they won't agree. Besides, this is nothing compared to the benefits we will gain if our Qi family can form a strong alliance with the Qin family and become a top family in the capital. These sacrifices will be worth it," Qi Changsheng said, looking at his son, Qi Yaguang.

"I know we need a strong alliance, but now I only have twenty percent of the Sea King Group's shares left. Ye Tianchen, a laughingstock in the capital, has become my boss. I have no face left," Qi Yaguang said, very unhappy.

"Then find a way to make him unable to stay at the Sea King Group and make him withdraw his shares. Tomorrow noon, I will have someone call Ye Tianchen to the Sea King Group to dissolve the engagement with my daughter and sign a voluntary agreement to prevent the Ye family from reneging. How to handle it is up to you."

"Alright, I'll make Ye Tianchen know that anyone who takes something from our Qi family will not have a good end," Qi Yaguang said, smiling viciously.

"By the way, how is your sister?" Qi Changsheng remembered his daughter, Qi Ruxue, and asked.

"My sister disagrees with the marriage to Qin Heng. She is very stubborn and needs more time to persuade her."

"I understand. Tomorrow's matter at the Sea King Group is up to you. However, I must remind you that Ye Tianchen, this waste, gives me a feeling of transformation. Be cautious and don't be too rash. Perhaps this man has deceived the entire capital with his carefree attitude..." Qi Changsheng frowned and said.
