148: The Heritage of a Millennium Family (Part 3)

As the heavy door slowly opened, a grand hall was fully revealed before Li Youqian's eyes.

This hall covered an area of several thousand square meters, and at this moment, many people had already gathered inside.

They were either conversing in low voices in small groups, or standing alone, quietly drinking wine.

The moment Li Youqian stepped into the hall, all sounds suddenly ceased as if a pause button had been pressed.

People unanimously turned their gaze towards Li Youqian.

Among these gazes, some were filled with curiosity and scrutiny, seemingly trying to discern something about Li Youqian.

Others carried caution and suspicion.

And some even looked at him with tears in their eyes.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from somewhere: "Welcome Young Clan Leader home!"

Immediately after, just like a stone thrown into a calm lake causing ripples, a uniform chant echoed throughout the entire hall:

"Welcome Young Clan Leader home!"

Li Youqian seemed a bit overwhelmed, but Xie Zixi held his hand and smiled at him, saying:

"Son, remember, in this family, no one's status is more noble than yours, except for your father."

"Even your grandfather is the same."

"You can comfortably enjoy their reverence for you without any psychological burden."

"This is what a noble family is."

A place with clear hierarchy, where the law of the jungle prevails.

"Youqian, come here, let grandpa take a good look."

Grandpa Li was helped over. His youngest grandson had been lost since childhood, and this matter had always been a regret in his heart all these years.

Now that Li Weiguo had been elected Clan Leader and Youqian had returned, the Li Family at least had a successor.

"Youqian, this is your grandfather, Li Hongsong."

Looking at the elderly man of advanced age before him, Li Youqian naturally said:

"Hello, Grandpa."

"Oh ~ Oh!"

Li Hongsong's eyes welled up with tears, and he couldn't help but recall the events of that year.

At that time, Li Weiguo had just succeeded to the position of Family Head, and the collateral branches rebelled, attempting to usurp power.

Although Li Weiguo ultimately suppressed them with thunderous means, the Li Family also suffered heavy losses in that battle, almost falling out of the ranks of the three great noble families.

Li Weiguo's only son, Li Youqian, was "annihilated" in that battle; Li Youqian was only 4 months old at the time.

Fortunately, heaven had eyes and sent Li Youqian back; otherwise, Li Hongsong would not have been able to rest in peace even in death.

"Child, it's good that you're back, it's really good that you're back."

Li Hongsong tightly held Li Youqian's hand, unwilling to let go.

Over the years, under the leadership of Li Weiguo, the Li Family had grown stronger day by day, and now it had the potential to become the world's number one family.

"Your grandmother still often talks about you; she was so happy to know you were coming back."

"It's a pity she's currently undertaking an extremely important scientific research task, otherwise you would have seen her today."

Li Youqian's grandmother's name is Zhao Wanru, and she was once the eldest daughter of the Jinling Zhao Family. When Little Japan invaded Jinling, the Zhao Family was wiped out, and only Zhao Wanru, who had married into the Li Family, escaped.

She is currently a leading expert in genetics in Huaxia, and is currently researching a genetic weapon, so she cannot return for the time being.

"Come, child, let me introduce you."

"This is your eldest uncle, Li Weimin. You should know him; he is the current head of the Cabinet."

"This is your second uncle, General Li Weijun, who currently serves as the second-in-command of the military."

"This is your youngest uncle, Little Uncle Li Weicai, who is currently the Vice Chairman of the Global Business Alliance."

Looking at the three people who frequently appeared on television and in newspapers, Li Youqian had only one feeling:

Holy cow, I'm a big shot!

Li Youqian had once guessed whether these three big figures were biological brothers, and facts proved he was right.

Not only were they biological brothers, but they were also his biological uncles!

Li Youqian just wanted to ask one question:

In this vast Huaxia, is there anything he, Li, cannot solve?

Who would dare not give him, Li, three points of face?

When he was a child, he thought it was embarrassing to call his parents if he couldn't win a fight, but now...

Dare to try and move?

Try it and you'll die!

"Hello, uncles and granduncles."

Being stared at by so many big figures, Li Youqian felt immense pressure.

Anyone who has interacted with high-ranking officials should understand that while 'aura' is invisible, it certainly exists.

That naturally exuded presence is truly something most people can't withstand.

"It's good that you're back."

"Welcome home."

"If you ever need anything in the future, just tell your uncle!"

The three elders also showed kind smiles, completely different from what he usually saw on television.

[Now, it's truly become 'Youqian's name'.]

[I don't even know how to reward you anymore...]

The system was also in a dilemma at this moment; it was only one step away from upgrading, but this guy seemed to lack nothing.

Damn it, I gave him too much of an advantage!

In the future, this guy might even ride on my neck and poop!

...

"Boss, three days ago, a battle just happened here, and about a thousand people died."

After the family recognition ceremony ended, Li Youqian was finally able to leave the hall and breathe a sigh of relief.

God knows how nervous he was just now!

"So many people died?"

Li Youqian looked at the manor before him, unable to detect any signs of a major battle having occurred here.

"Are you sure?"

Looking at the prosperous scene before him, Li Youqian asked incredulously.

"Confirmed. The blood components in the air and soil have not completely dissipated even now."

"Confirmed, Boss."

As a warrior born for war, she might get anything wrong, but not this.

It seemed that before his arrival, Li Weiguo had already conducted a major cleanup.

Li Youqian was somewhat touched by this.

This "wild dad" who appeared halfway still cared about him very much.

Just because he said, "Does my family welcome me?" Li Weiguo immediately ordered a major cleanup.

"What are you thinking about?"

Li Youqian's older sister, Li Xinyue, also secretly slipped out.

Seeing Li Youqian standing alone here, she walked over to him and asked.

"Nothing, I just feel a bit unreal."

If he had two transformations in his life, the first was the system's arrival, and the second was today.

The impact these two transformations brought him was simply too great.

"These years... you've worked hard."

Li Xinyue had also looked into Li Youqian's information, and she felt deeply for this younger brother.

He grew up in an orphanage, never feeling a shred of family love.

As an adult, he struggled on his own, achieving such brilliant accomplishments at a young age.

Honestly, if it were her, she couldn't have done it.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's all in the past."

For him, his current life was just icing on the cake.

He would remain as he was; he, Li Youqian, would never change for anyone.
