78: Chapter 78 The Qi Family Disbands

"Everyone, you can rest easy now. Take your gifts back. There are several orphanages in Jiangcheng. If you have the heart, donate some money to the orphanages. Do more good deeds, and blessings will naturally follow."

"But remember one thing: too much of a good thing can be bad. When helping children, be mindful of your methods. Do not make the children think that pies will fall from the sky or that someone will always provide blankets whenever it gets cold."

"Let them know that there is no such thing as getting something for nothing. Only through one's own hard work can one change their destiny and obtain things that others cannot."

Upon hearing Xiao Yuchen's words, everyone nodded repeatedly. Isn't that exactly their current situation? If they want to change the fate of their Family, they must rely on their own efforts. No one will help you forever; in the end, everything depends on yourself.

Understanding this, the crowd dispersed. Although Xiao Yuchen did not accept their gifts, he had pointed them toward a bright path.

Now that everyone's competition was the same, if they wanted to stand out and become partners with the Zhou, Zheng, and Li Families, they had to constantly improve the quality of their own products. Xiao Yuchen had given them an excellent platform to showcase themselves.

Watching them leave, Li Yiran said coldly, "Interrupting your fashion show, are you very disappointed?"

"How could that be? Who was watching a fashion show? Besides, how could they compare to my girlfriend? Let's go, let's go to your room and watch a fashion show."

Xiao Yuchen smirked and pulled Li Yiran back to the villa. However, it was daytime, and both Xiao Yuxin and Dashan were there, so how could Li Yiran let Xiao Yuchen get his way?

Before long, Dashan came out of the room. He had slept very soundly last night. It was the first time in over half a year that he had slept so well.

"Dashan, come here."

Seeing Dashan come out of the room, Xiao Yuchen called him over.

"Yuchen, I'm hungry," Dashan said with some innocence.

"Oh, right, right, right. I was just about to make breakfast, but those people ruined it."

Saying this, Xiao Yuchen put on his apron again and made breakfast for everyone.

After eating, the three of them watched Dashan playing in the living room.

"Yuchen, we don't have time to take care of Dashan during the day. Now that Dashan is at school age, we should send him to kindergarten."

Li Yiran had thought of this issue. Both she and Xiao Yuchen had to go to school. Although Xiao Yuchen didn't attend classes, he was usually very busy and had no time to take care of Dashan.

"Hmm, that is a problem. However, I need to help Dashan Cultivate first and teach him to control the power within his body, otherwise, he will be isolated by other children when he goes to kindergarten."

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuchen called out, "Dashan, come here."

Hearing Xiao Yuchen's words, Dashan put down the toy in his hand and came before the three of them.

"Dashan, everyone needs a name. Your name is too simple. Would you like Yuchen to give you a new name?" Xiao Yuchen asked.

"A new name? Great, great! I'm going to have a new name." Dashan was clearly very happy.

"What should it be?" Xiao Yuchen thought for a moment, then said, "My surname is Xiao, so you can follow my surname. The character 'Shan' was given to you by the director, so we won't change it. Let's call you Xiao Yuanshan."

Upon hearing the new name Xiao Yuchen chose, Dashan didn't say anything, but Li Yiran said speechlessly, "I think you've read too many Wuxia novels. Isn't that Xiao Yuanshan the father of Xiao Feng? Dashan is so young, why give him such an old-sounding name?"

"No, Yiran, do you have a misunderstanding about names? How is this name old? How about we just call him Xiao Shan? It's simpler." Xiao Yuchen compromised.

"That works. You gave the surname, and the director gave the name. That's pretty good," Li Yiran agreed.

"Dashan, can you be called Xiao Shan from now on?" Xiao Yuchen asked for Dashan's opinion.

"Mm, okay. I like having the same surname as my big brother."

Seeing that Dashan agreed, the name was decided. Now that he had a name, they could arrange for Dashan's schooling.

"Then I'll leave the matter of Dashan's schooling to you. Starting tomorrow, I'm going to take Dashan to Cultivate."

In the afternoon, the four Elders of the Medicine God Valley arrived at Xiao Yuchen's villa. It was Xiao Yuchen who had summoned them.

"Grand Elder, how has the matter with the Qi Family been resolved?" Xiao Yuchen asked.

"Reporting to Young Master Xiao, the head of the Qi Family, Qi Tian, his second son, Qi Shan, and the butler, Qi Ruhai, have already committed suicide."

"Before committing suicide, Qi Tian voluntarily handed over the Qi Family's assets and dissolved the Qi Family. At the same time, he warned all members of the Qi Family not to seek revenge on you, saying that this was all their own fault."

Hearing these words from Elder Yao Li, Xiao Yuchen was deeply moved. He had to admit that this Qi Tian was indeed a real man, no worse than Zhou Tiancheng and the others. If they hadn't touched his reverse scale, Xiao Yuchen would have really wanted to spare his life.

"Alright, I understand. Leave the Qi Family's manor to the Qi Family members. Qi Shan did something wrong, and he and his father have already paid with their lives. Leave a way out for the others."

"Very well. The Qi Family members are still handling funeral arrangements for Qi Tian. I will inform them," Elder Yao Li agreed.

After resolving this matter, Xiao Yuchen looked at Fourth Elder Yao Qian again. "The medicine you took that day to boost your strength has side effects, right? Eat this antidote pill."

Xiao Yuchen actually admired Fourth Elder Yao Qian quite a bit. This guy really dared to risk his life just to win against him. He needed subordinates like this.

"An antidote pill? Will this work? I've already taken the antidote pill refined by the Valley Master, and it was completely useless." Fourth Elder Yao Qian took the antidote pill from Xiao Yuchen's hand and examined it carefully.

"My Alchemy level can outpace your Valley Master by eighteen streets. That thing of his is also called a Medicinal Pill? It can only be considered a pill that was barely fused together."

For the past few days, Fourth Elder Yao Qian had been tortured by the Gu inside his body. He had already taken the antidote pill refined by the Valley Master, but it had no effect at all.

"Alright, then I'll try it."

Just as Fourth Elder Yao Qian was about to take the antidote pill, Xiao Yuchen felt that the Heart-Devouring Gu he was raising suddenly became agitated, as if it were interested in the Gu inside Fourth Elder Yao Qian's body.

"Wait a moment." Xiao Yuchen hurriedly stopped him.

Although Fourth Elder Yao Qian didn't understand Xiao Yuchen's intention, he stopped his actions.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuchen took out the jade bottle containing the Heart-Devouring Gu. After opening the stopper, the Heart-Devouring Gu crawled out of the jade bottle.

Seeing the Heart-Devouring Gu, the four Elders were secretly shocked. The method of cultivating Gu is a closely guarded secret of the Medicine God Valley; they didn't know how Xiao Yuchen possessed a Gu.

After crawling out of the bottle, the Heart-Devouring Gu immediately flapped its wings and flew toward Fourth Elder Yao Qian. Fourth Elder Yao Qian instinctively wanted to resist, but was stopped by Xiao Yuchen.

In the end, Fourth Elder Yao Qian remained motionless, watching the Heart-Devouring Gu enter his body. Just when he thought he would be bitten by the Heart-Devouring Gu, a wave of comfort spread through his body.

"Huh? What's going on? I feel like the Gu inside my body is rapidly decreasing, and my body feels much more comfortable."

At first, Fourth Elder Yao Qian wasn't sure, but finally, the discomfort in his body completely disappeared. Then, a small bug flew out of his body, and it seemed a bit larger than before.

"What, what kind of Gu is this? It actually devoured all the Gu inside my body. This is incredible." Fourth Elder Yao Qian was very pleasantly surprised; his body had finally recovered to its original state.

"This is Yao Feng's life-bound Gu. I thought it was quite fun, so I took it to raise."
