Su Qi returned ho, where his parents were busy preparing dinner.
Su Duoduo was the first to see Su Qi back and imdiately hopped around him, chirping and asking how many fierce beasts he had killed, and if he had encountered any formidable beasts.
Hearing the commotion, his parents quickly ca out from the kitchen.
Su’s Mother circled around Su Qi a couple of tis to make sure he wasn’t hurt, and only then did the big stone in her heart settle down.
After finishing dinner,
Su Qi suggested moving to the Inner City and had Father Su quit his job at the cleaning company.
This made Su Peidong, who was usually frugal, frown at once: "Xiaoqi, we know you earned quite a bit on this trip to the wilderness, but I just got a promotion..."
Although Su Peidong didn’t know much about Transcendents, he knew that Support Elent Transcendents were usually subordinate to Combat Elent Transcendents.
So, he guessed that most of the fierce beasts brought back by Zhou Ming probably belonged to his son’s teammates.
He also knew that although Transcendents made money easily, the expenses were also high; otherwise, those individual Transcendents wouldn’t join those big financial groups and companies.
However, Su Qi said it wouldn’t interfere with his cultivation, and he would temporarily use only one-tenth of his earnings for household expenses.
Hearing this, Su Peidong finally agreed.
But when Su Peidong saw the string of zeros his son turned over, he was suddenly agitated: "Xiaoqi, is this... did I see it wrong?"
Beside him, Su’s Mother playfully chided her husband for his lack of competence, yet she couldn’t help but cover her mouth when she saw that string of numbers.
"Mom and Dad, don’t be so surprised. Our teacher said it’s not difficult for Transcendents to easily earn millions," Su Duoduo proudly explained, with a look as if she would absolutely make big money when she grew up.
As Su Peidong turned the phone screen around in a daze,
Su Duoduo saw a bunch of zeros.
Her small hand trembled.
The snacks in her hand fell all over the floor in shock.
"Brother, you didn’t sell the All Heavens Reflecting True Crystals, did you!"
She knew that after Su Qi successfully awakened, he still had two All Heavens Reflecting True Crystals left.
Su Qi laughed and said, "One hundred million, one-tenth, that’s correct."
When he said this, the family was once again stunned.
Ten... ten billion!?
Having just beco a Transcendent, in a little over a month, he actually earned ten billion!
If making money were that easy, other Transcendents would not even bother joining companies.
Such astonishing gains left the family montarily unable to process it.
Fortunately, Su Qi didn’t ntion the more than three hundred All Heavens Reflecting True Crystals; otherwise, his parents’ hearts might not have been able to bear it.
At this mont,
Su Peidong finally understood his son’s intention in asking him to quit his job.
Work?
What work is there to do!
Even if he lived without eating or drinking for a lifeti, he wouldn’t have the qualifications to even glance at so much money!
While the family marveled at the phone, imrsed in the happiness brought by the string of numbers, Su Qi took the opportunity to freshen up and ntioned he was going out for a while.
Well, the three money-grubbers didn’t hear him at all.
Walking down the main road, Su Qi picked up his phone and saw a bunch of missed calls from his classmates, but he didn’t mind.
He opened the group chat, found Yan Song’s contact, and directly called him.
"Su Qi, did you co back alive from the wilderness?" Yan Song’s incredulous voice ca through the other end of the line.
"Surprised?"
At the Xinhao Club, Yan Song sensed sothing was slightly off: "To be honest, given your realm, I’m quite surprised, but what’s more surprising is, why are you looking for ?"
"Nine o’clock, Old City District, co over with Xu Zisheng, I have sothing to talk to you about, don’t be late."
With that, Su Qi directly hung up the phone, walking straight towards the Old City District.
He wasn’t worried that Yan Song and the others wouldn’t show up because he had set the eting place in the Old City District.
This place was sowhat special.
Twenty years ago, it was the main attack zone for fierce beasts, and after it was defended by Old Principal Pei and his people, it was rebuilt due to its special significance.
However, for so unknown reason, after the Old City District was rebuilt, dinsional rifts frequently appeared, costing many lives.
As a result,
Old Principal Pei decisively rebuilt a new city, relocating everyone, forming the current Inner City.
Initially, the Old City District beca a training ground for Low-level Transcendents, as the fierce beasts erging from the dinsional rifts were generally not too powerful due to the suppression of the Heavenly Dao.
With the establishnt of the Security Bureau and the perfection of the system, so Transcendents with conflicts in the Inner City turned their eyes to the abandoned Old City District.
People often saw phrases online like ’Don’t argue online, if you have the guts, co to the Old City District’.
Thus, the Old City District gradually beca synonymous with conflict resolution among Transcendents.
Many classmates secretly sneaked to the Old City District while in school to watch Transcendent battles, often getting an eyeful once in a while.
Sure enough,
When Yan Song heard about the Old City District, he suddenly beca vigilant.
"This guy ca back from the wilderness alive and is inviting to the Old City District. Could he know about Yang Bo’s bounty on him..."
"But that shouldn’t be. Given Yang Bo’s circle, killing Su Qi should be easy. How could it leak out?"
"Could it be I am overthinking, and Su Qi didn’t encounter those bounty-receiving Transcendents, and just got lucky returning to the city?"
After so thought, he decided to report to Xu Zisheng first.
Previously, he had been warned by Xu Zisheng for acting on his own.
If he didn’t wise up, losing trust would make him no different from any other classmate.
After hearing Yan Song’s report and analysis, Xu Zisheng was indifferent: "He’s just a newcor with a low start and no background. Even if he knows, what can he stir up."
"At most, he’s acquainted with so Control Level Transcendent, or his strength has slightly increased, leading to so self-inflation."
"He just went out for a little over a month; he can’t possibly fly to the heavens!"
"Alright, you handle it. If he’s willing to bow his head, I don’t mind throwing him a bone, considering we’re schoolmates."
Yan Song observed Xu Zisheng’s expression and tentatively asked, "So should I take more people out, let him see our club’s style?"
"Sure." Xu Zisheng nodded: "Bring an Overlord Level Transcendent."
Upon hearing this, Yan Song revealed a triumphant smile, since after Yang Bo was sent out, other Overlord Level Transcendents in the club weren’t too impressed with him.
Now, with Xu Zisheng’s orders, things were easier.
After all, not every Overlord Level Transcendent was as powerful and well-connected as Yang Bo.
At this mont, in the Old City District.
In the open-air training ground, Su Qi leaned against a rusted piece of equipnt, waiting patiently.
The best approach would be to directly show his strength to Principal Pei, as his potential should make the Old Principal willing to support him.
But based on his understanding of the Old Principal, he presud the Old Principal wouldn’t agree with him facing the Xu Family head-on right now, and would instead advise him to endure for a while.
However, that wasn’t what he wanted.
So, Su Qi decided to act in his own manner.
Of course, revealing his strength tonight could likely lead to encounters with true masters of the Xu Family.
Therefore, he dialed the Security Bureau’s number, using it as an insurance policy for himself.
"Hello, this is the Security Bureau, may I ask..."
Su Qi looked up at the sky, speaking calmly: "I’d like to report an Overlord Level Transcendent conflict in the Old City District."
"How many involved? What’s the current situation? Do you know their identities?" The operator on the other end of the line turned serious imdiately.
Su Qi estimated the Xu Family’s known capabilities.
"I don’t know, maybe a hundred or more..."
