Chapter 786: Chapter 786: Uncle’s Identity Revealed, Si Fuqing’s Network (2)

“Secondly, our Great Xia has an independent organization, the Supernatural Management Bureau, also known as the Spirit Alliance.”

Nian Yi’an’s interest was piqued. “The Spirit Alliance! I read about it in history books.”

“Yes, before the appearance of evolved beings, the Spirit Alliance was responsible for handling supernatural events,” Si Fuqing nodded. “After the emergence of evolved beings, those within the Great Xia Empire also came under the jurisdiction of the Spirit Alliance.”

Nian Yi’an nodded in understanding.

“However, I haven’t had much contact with the Spirit Alliance,” Si Fuqing paused. “Let’s start with the Evolved Being Alliance.”

Yuejian raised an eyebrow.

Her little junior sister didn’t want others to know they were on the Supernatural Management Bureau’s wanted list, did she?

“The Elder Council has ten elders,” Si Fuqing said as she wrote. “The alliance leader is chosen by the Elder Council. If the leader’s descendants are strong enough, they will be named the junior leader. Historically, all junior leaders have been Class S.”

“In addition, there is the guard team. The guard captain starts at Class A and can reach beyond that.”

“Next are the three major families,” Si Fuqing’s expression turned serious. “You must be cautious when encountering these surnames.”

Nian Yi’an listened intently.

Si Fuqing wrote down three surnames.

Lotebar.

In.

Kusonoki.

“They are respectively from the Western Continent, Great Xia, and Eastern Mulberry,” Si Fuqing said calmly. “High-level evolved beings almost all come from these three families.”

Nian Yi’an looked at the surnames, falling silent for a moment. “Then my dad…”

“He’s your dad, my uncle, your mom’s husband. That’s all that matters,” Si Fuqing said softly. “We are the real family, aren’t we?”

Nian Yi’an took a deep breath. “Alright, I understand.”

“But if you ever have trouble with people from these three families, come to me,” Si Fuqing raised her eyebrows, her tone unhurried. “I have a few friends who wouldn’t let you suffer.”

“That’s all for the briefing. I’m going out for some food.”

She grabbed her key pack and left.

Nian Yi’an’s body was still tense. He looked towards Yuejian, who was mixing a drink. “Sister Yueyue, you’re my sister’s assistant. Who exactly is she?”

“This is just the beginning,” Yuejian twirled a long spoon, her lips curving into a smile. “Your Sister Qingqing is far more impressive. You should get used to it.”

Nian Yi’an: “…”

He couldn’t get used to this.

He decided to calm himself by doing two sets of science practice tests.

At this time, in Western State.

Nian Tingchu had just finished his work and was drinking water.

The other workers, exhausted, were lying on the ground, panting. “Tingchu, you really have good stamina. After working all night, you’re not even tired.”

Because of his strength, the factory owner valued Nian Tingchu and sent him to the state capital of Western State to complete a project.

The owner had generously given him a substantial salary, making the other workers envious.

Nian Tingchu simply said, “I’m still young and in good health.”

“Tingchu, you earned quite a bit this time,” a coworker laughed. “After this job, go home and spend New Year with your wife and son. Don’t work too hard.”

Nian Tingchu also smiled. “I’ll be changing jobs after the New Year.”

The coworker was curious. “What kind of job?”

Nian Tingchu was silent for a moment. “Maybe a guard or a security officer.”

“I’m not trying to be critical, but you should aim higher,” the coworker disagreed. “You’re good-looking and strong. You should find a better job.”

Nian Tingchu only smiled. “Living an ordinary life peacefully is enough for me.”

“True,” the coworker sighed. “Last year, my former employer owed me wages, and I almost didn’t make it home. It’s late now. Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve. Let’s pack up and go home.”

He patted Nian Tingchu on the shoulder, handed him a cigarette, and went to pack his things in the temporary dormitory.

Nian Tingchu didn’t have much to pack, just a few clothes. He quickly finished and prepared to go to the train station.

Low-level evolved beings weren’t uncommon.

Along the way, Nian Tingchu noticed quite a few.

He paid them no mind and continued walking with his luggage.

Until he noticed two more evolved beings.

Nian Tingchu glanced at them.

Class C.

Not enough to make him wary.

Nian Tingchu passed by the two Class C evolved beings.

But his hearing was excellent, and he caught their conversation.

“By the way, the family head is furious. That Ning guy told him they caught an unawakened evolved being in An City and planned to draw his blood to make medicine for our family. But they failed,” one of them said. “Not only did they not catch the person, but they also got themselves caught. The Ning family is useless.”

“A bunch of shamans with no combat ability. They can’t amount to anything,” the other one replied. “But it’s said that evolved being might be high-level. The family head is planning to go to Northern State himself.”

North State, An City, unawakened evolved being.

These words struck Nian Tingchu’s ears.

When he settled in An City, he had investigated the entire city. Besides Nian Yi’an, there were no other unawakened evolved beings.

He clenched his fists, and his bones suddenly made a cracking sound.

“Buzz!”

The air instantly froze.

The two Class C evolved beings felt unprecedented difficulty in breathing, as if all the oxygen around them had vanished.

Their faces turned blue and purple, and they soon passed out.

Nian Tingchu’s fingers tightened again. He took a few deep breaths, and the air began to flow once more.

He put down his luggage and bent over, finding the evolution certificates on the two Class C evolved beings.

The evolution certificate was an identification card for evolved beings, similar to an ID card.

It indicated the evolved being’s level and bore an annual inspection stamp.

If they failed the Supernatural Management Bureau’s inspection, their abilities would be temporarily restricted.

Fengg.

Nian Tingchu had never heard of this surname. It was a family of evolved beings that had only risen to prominence in recent years.

His expression turned cold. He picked up his luggage and headed towards the Fengg family, following the address on the evolution certificate.

At the moment when his energy exploded, the Western State branch of the Supernatural Management Bureau went into high alert.

[High-level evolved being energy detected!]

[High-level evolved being energy detected!]

[High-level evolved being energy detected!]

The monitoring screens flashed frantically, and alarm sirens began to wail.

A Class S evolved being!

The young agent’s face changed dramatically, almost in horror. “This is bad. Contact headquarters immediately!”

Class S evolved beings were exceedingly rare.

There were only a handful in the Great Xia Empire. While the Western State had evolved being families, none had ever produced a Class A, let alone a Class S.

Could this be an invasion by foreign enemies?

Cold sweat trickled down the young agent’s face as he sent another urgent message, “Requesting support from the chair!”

**

The Fengg family residence was in Western State, and Nian Tingchu found it easily.

His eyes were filled with cold intent, and just as his energy was about to erupt, a hand suddenly rested on his shoulder.

Nian Tingchu’s body tensed instantly. He turned his head and was taken aback. “Mr. Yu?”

Yu Xiheng’s appearance indeed surprised Nian Tingchu.

If he had any doubts before, now he was certain.

Yu Xiheng was also an evolved being.

And his level might even be higher.

“Mr. Nian, there is no need to worry,” Yu Xiheng said calmly. “We are family.”

Nian Tingchu was stunned. “Huh.”

His mind was in a whirl.

Until he heard a scream nearby.

The next second, a person was thrown out.

He was covered in wounds, not a single part of him intact.

Chen Ying followed. “Brother Nine, this Class B evolved being is useless. No abilities, but quite greedy.”

“Who… Who are you people?!” The head of the Fengg family spat blood. “You openly provoke conflict. I’ll… I’ll report you to the In family and the Supernatural Management Bureau!”

Going up against the Supernatural Management Bureau and the In family, these people were doomed!

Chen Ying was about to say something when he saw Nian Tingchu step forward.

“You reminded me of something I’d almost forgotten,” Nian Tingchu said, bending down. “A long time ago, my surname was In.”
