Looking at Destiny leave into the distance.

In the floating restaurant, Zhao Enshi's spirit seemed to dissipate along with him.

He looked at the family head, silently blocked by Dong Jun. It was the first time in so many years that he had seen the family head so powerless.

The loss of two eighth-rank experts was not just a simple loss of two combat powers, but also the two territories they represented.

The influence of the military, the influence of the Nine Orders, commercial layouts, and so on.

"Why is this happening!?" Zhao Mengshuang widened her eyes, unable to believe what she had just witnessed.

The family head actually failed to defeat Destiny!?

Not only could she not accept this result, but neither could the rest of the main line, nor the other branches of the Zhao family, nor all those sheltered by this huge family system.

The formation of a family initially consists only of its pillar members. As these pillar members become large umbrellas, these umbrellas gradually form a force, attracting external talents to rely on and join.

In essence, a family is composed of powerful individuals.

And now... the Zhao family has lost two.

The sphere of influence it occupies has shrunk by nearly half.

"The family head hasn't lost! We are still the same Zhao family!!" Zhao Qianrou suddenly shouted loudly.

"My grandfather is dead!! Dead!!" Suddenly, a young man wearing glasses rushed out from the crowd and punched Zhao Qianrou in the face.

"It's all your fault!! It's all your fault!! Who did you have to provoke but Destiny's bunch of lunatics!! They are Corner People! They are not afraid of anything, living for today and dying tomorrow! They dare to fight anyone!! Why did you provoke them! Why!!"

The young man pushed Zhao Qianrou to the ground and frantically punched her head.

No one stopped him.

Although Zhao Qianrou was the most beloved member of the family head's main line, everything was different now.

Zhao Qianrou's initial conflict with Destiny could not be concealed from those who were interested.

Although no one believed that the conflict between Destiny and the Zhao family originated from this, there would always be someone to blame.

The person who hit her was Zhao Lingzhi's grandson, his most direct grandson, Zhao Cong.

No one stopped him. Zhao Qianrou's favor had always brought unspeakable jealousy.

At this moment, her past conflict with Destiny became Zhao Cong's final outlet for venting.

Blood spurted out with each punch, splashing everywhere.

Zhao Qianrou did not resist. With her martial arts skills, resistance would not be difficult.

She simply didn't want to resist.

She just lay on the ground, recalling the beginning in pain, recalling the previous judgments and deviations.

The pain made her confused, but it also made her sober.

Just because he was accepted as a disciple by Destiny, Li Chongnan of the Li family soared into the sky and became a ninth-rank seedling, receiving key core training.

Only now did she realize what she had missed.

Destiny, Destiny...

Was it really Destiny!?

*Boom!*

Suddenly, she flipped over and kicked out.

The special techniques of the Bagua School allowed her to easily kick Zhao Cong away.

With a leap, Zhao Qianrou rushed towards the door, opened it, and disappeared outside in the blink of an eye.

She was a favored daughter of heaven, born with extraordinary talent!

And Li Chongnan was just an ordinary talent before. Why could Li Chongnan rise up, but she couldn't!?

This world has no black and white, no right and wrong... only strong and weak!

At this moment, she truly understood the errors in her previous understanding.

"I am weaker than Destiny, so anyone can blame me, anyone can take their anger out on me! But what if I become stronger than Destiny!!"

She did not return to the Zhao family mansion. With only the cash and gold cards she had on her, she went straight to the airport.

She wanted to find her own path.

People can make mistakes, but they must never make the same mistake twice.

Fengnan Province, Suiyang, Yong'an Garden.

"Hahahaha!!"

Rainbow Candy stepped on the table with one foot, hands on her hips, eyes shining with dazzling colored lights, and laughed wildly at the sky.

"Strong!! Invincible!! Lonely!!! Hahaha!!!" Dragon Gate Crane also hammered the table frantically with his hands.

"Boss is awesome!! Our team will be completely rich from today onwards!!!" Rainbow Candy shouted, her emotions were quite excited.

She gathered her strength, but before she could unleash it, everything was over.

Boss Yi Ge went to the meeting alone, stabbed the opponent in the heart with a single knife, and then retreated unscathed.

After this battle, Destiny's Garden was truly invincible!!

"..." Xiao Zong sat on the side, looking at the suspended broadcast screen, his face calm.

If it weren't for the faint tremor in his eyes, no one would have been able to see the slight mood inside him at this moment.

A while ago, Yi Ge was only an eighth-rank, but now he has broken through in one fell swoop, reaching the ninth-rank.

It should be known that their Destiny's Garden is different from other flyer masters. Other flyer masters will have logistical support behind them, and for those like the eighth-rank, there will even be a large team behind them to help maintain them.

But they are different.

Their power is only themselves.

So... Yi Ge, in other words, should be the first completely free ninth-rank in history.

"A vicious bombing attack that occurred this morning has been officially confirmed as a terrorist attack."

At this time, the screen switched to the Chaoyu news channel.

A short-haired beauty in a blue women's suit was solemnly hosting the news.

"The case has been determined to be that two high-level flyer masters were turned against by enemy countries and openly attacked the Fengnan Province Da Lian Hui officials who were on their way to Chaoyu Foreign Affairs."

"Fortunately, after a very short period of emergency arrest, the two rebels have been killed."

Big Bear gently pushed the door and entered the hall, seeing that everyone was watching the news.

"Just received news. The imperial royal family has sent a formal invitation letter, inviting Yi Ge to accept the Nine Orders conferment. To become the tenth ninth-rank in the entire Earth-Moon, and join the high-level military."

".!"

"!!"

"!!?"

The three people present were all stunned.

High-level military...

Is this the legendary, soaring to the sky in one step!?

The air in the hall was stagnant. A Corner Person was actually invited to enter the high-level military...!

If it had been before today, they would have thought Big Bear was joking.

But watching her take out a dark gold, narrow letter from her chest, everyone understood that it should be the royal invitation letter.

"The Nine Orders are already full, but the military is still more than one step weaker. This is the art of balance, so... it's up to Yi Ge." Rainbow Candy said.

But even she didn't realize that her voice was trembling.

She was born in the Yan family since she was a child, so she knew very well what the concept of a ninth-rank entering the high-level military was.

If nothing unexpected happens, they will witness the rise of a new large family.

Their Yan family, in order to climb to the high-level position step by step, spent the hard work and accumulation of several generations, seized every opportunity they encountered, and was fortunate enough to kill off a large number of competitors and stand in the position of the empire's great nobles.

And now...

Yi Ge alone has such a foundation.

"Tsk tsk tsk, don't get carried away, our real enemy is the Corner, the power in reality can't affect the Corner." Big Bear raised her eyebrows.

"Even so... we will really be different in the future..." Rainbow Candy took a deep breath.

Once they become high-level military, the resources and information they obtain will be vastly different from before.

Their group of abandoned people, from now on... will no longer be considered waste...

Father...

A trace of pain and longing flashed in Rainbow Candy's eyes.

Andu, Yan family ancestral home.

Layers of memorial tablets were neatly arranged in the center of the ancestral hall, and wisps of green smoke rose from the incense burner.

Yan Peng stood quietly in front of the incense burner, his face tense, looking at the names of his ancestors' spirit tablets.

*Click.*

The dark ancestral hall door was slowly opened from the outside.

A beautiful woman in a complicated and gorgeous dress entered, lifting her skirt gracefully.

The gorgeous long skirt and her bright temperament were like a peacock with misplaced feathers.

"Why didn't you go to Xin Jie today? He is about to undergo the seventh-rank flyer examination, and the resources he needs during this period should be doubled." The woman looked at Yan Peng standing in front of the incense burner, dissatisfied.

"No time." Yan Peng turned around. "Isn't Xin Jie being watched by you?"

"He is also your son. I can understand that you have been asking the elders for help recently, but you should be clear that these favors, these connections, should all belong to Xin Jie. Yan Xincai has already separated from the family, she should not and cannot occupy Xin Jie's interests anymore." The woman frowned.

"I am her dad!" Yan Peng's voice rose. "I don't want to watch her struggle to death in the Corner alone! I want her to be well, to be normal like other children, to go to school normally, to work normally, to get married and have children normally! To live like a normal person!! Is that not allowed!? Is that not allowed!!?"

His emotions suddenly became agitated.

"Every time you talk about her, you get so excited! Do you think I don't feel sorry for her!?" The woman also said sharply. "But what can I do!? If we don't fight for it, our line will decline sooner or later. If you waste favors and resources everywhere, and Xin Jie fails to reach a sufficient height at that time, what use will it be to Yan Xincai if our line declines!?"

"If she, Yan Xincai, is sensible and can understand the difficulties of us parents, she should not burden us, should not burden Xin Jie! This is the most basic filial piety of her as a daughter!" The woman said sternly.

*Slap!!*

Yan Peng raised his hand and slapped the woman hard on the cheek.

"Yan Youying!!"

"You dare to hit me!?" The woman covered her face in disbelief, and wisps of red electric arcs lit up in her eyes.

"For a Yan Xincai who has no future... you actually... dare to hit me???"

"If you say one more word, I will not only hit you, I will dare to kill you!" Yan Peng's voice was extremely cold and angry.

As the core of the main line, with the cold and ruthless structure inside the Yan family, it would not be difficult for him to kill Yan Youying, who was from a distant branch.

"Also, why should Xincai be filial to you!? From childhood to adulthood, I have been taking care of her, accompanying her, and teaching her! What have you given her that she should be filial to!?"

"You!!?" Yan Youying still wanted to say something.

But the door of the ancestral hall was pushed open, and an old man in a Taoist robe with white hair walked in quickly.

"Peng'er, get ready, the family head wants to send you to lead a team to Fengnan Province."

"Father!?" Yan Peng and Yan Youying hurriedly calmed down and bowed.

The old man was Yan Peng's father, Yan Wenhan.

"Why suddenly go to Fengnan Province?" Both of them were a little confused. The family did not have any layout or industry there, and the family's internal seventh-rank assessment was about to begin. At this time, they were asked to go to Fengnan Province...

"Li Chengyi, the team leader of the Mingyuan Group's high-level team, broke through into Chaoyu alone fifteen minutes ago, killed Zhao Lingzhi and Zhao Yanzhen of the Wanshi Chamber of Commerce, and retreated unscathed after fighting with Lord Black Phoenix.

Just now, His Majesty has officially confirmed that Li Chengyi of Destiny will be the tenth ninth-rank general of the Empire. Now he is waiting for Destiny to accept the decree, and then he can go to Andu to receive the title of Grand General."

Speaking of this, he looked at the dumbfounded Yan Peng couple.

"The gap between the eighth-rank and the ninth-rank is like a natural moat, but I didn't expect that in just a few months... that Destiny... it really is unpredictable..."

He paused.

"Coincidentally, Yan Xincai, with the online name Rainbow Candy, is a top expert in charge of network security in Destiny's Garden team under Destiny's command. This time, Destiny suddenly raided into Chaoyu without notifying anyone. It was she who forcibly opened Chaoyu's Silent Fortress from a loophole that no one had ever discovered. That's why the Zhao family was caught off guard and failed to mobilize the greatest power."

"..." Yan Peng looked blank. He knew that his daughter was a hacker master, but her level was just so-so. The experts in his network security company had also secretly tested his daughter, so he knew her level.

But now...

Xincai suddenly improved and even broke through the Silent Fortress, and it was Chaoyu's Silent Fortress!?? That was one of the strongest human defenses that even the White Star's hacker cluster had failed to break through.

Xincai's level? What a joke!?
