Chapter 10: The Big Yan Family
Lan Zhirou found another chair in the office and sat down on it . Her face was still red . She turned back and looked at Yan Huang . Yan Huang was smiling at her calmly .
Lan Zhirou felt a sudden flutter in her heart, then it started to pound furiously . She never had this feeling before .
Strange, how did he know that my chair was going to break?
Lan Zhirou was puzzled . Her chair broke without any warning . It broke right after Yan Huang spoke . This was too much of a coincidence .
Lan Zhirou recalled the scene just now and felt uncomfortable . The place where Yan Huang grabbed a moment ago started feeling itchy .
“Go back to your class,” said Lan Zhirou to Yan Huang after a while . Her face was still red .
“Yes . ” Yan Huang nodded and started walking calmly .

He took two steps and turned back and said, “Teacher . ”
“Yes?” Lan Zhirou asked curiously .
“Don’t worry . If no accidents happen during the university entrance examination, I will be able to get full marks . ”
Lan Zhirou almost choked on her own saliva . She frowned and replied, “Ever since the university entrance examination was reintroduced, no one had gotten full marks . ”
“Oh . ” Yan Huang answered nonchalantly, “Then I will be the first one . ”
Yan Huang turned and left . Lan Zhirou raised her eyebrows and froze on the spot .
For some reason, Yan Huang’s calm speech had some power to it . It made Lan Zhirou believe that Yan Huang would really be able to get full marks for his university entrance examination .
Actually, it was easy for Yan Huang to get full marks in his exam . It only depends on whether he wanted to do it or not .
Once someone reached the foundation building state, his or her thinking and understanding ability would increase exponentially . He or she would also have a photographic memory . Hence, the university entrance examination would be easy for them .
Yan Huang returned to the classroom safe and sound . The students in the classroom started discussing about him, and the teacher had to ask them to keep quiet .

“Old Huang… Old Huang… You…” Zhang Ziyun didn’t know what to say . He held onto his glasses and looked at him as though he just recognized him .
Zhang Ziyun touched Yan Huang’s arms and then felt his back . He was trying to see if this was the Yan Huang that he knew .
“Oh my god, you were so fierce these two days!” Zhang Ziyun shouted in astonishment . He joked, “Why do I feel that you are a different person?”
“Yes . ” Yan Huang nodded and replied, “I am a different person . Although my body didn’t change, the spirit in me changed . ”
“Huh?” Zhang Ziyun heard Yan Huang’s honest reply and didn’t know how to continue the conversation . He was just joking .
Today was Friday . After school ended, the students had two days off . Yan Huang wanted to go to the Nine Dragon Mountain to continue his cultivation, but he received a call from his mother asking him to come back for dinner today .
In his past life, Yan Huang’s parents died in the fight between him and the Devil clan while protecting him .
Yan Huang felt that now that he was reborn, he could make up for the regret he felt for his parents . This body was a filial son . When Yan Huang took over the body, he inherited the feelings this body had for his parents .
This matched with Yan Huang’s principles . People who were useless and had no relationship with him were all nobodies . Their only purpose was to provide him with faith energy .
Only people like Zhang Ziyun and Lan Zhirou had the right to become his subordinates, friends, and comrades . As for how far they could go, it all depended on their character and abilities .

For people that were blood-related, he didn’t mind helping them . In the end, Yan Huang was just a human . He had the character of a human .
Hence, when Yan Huang took the call, he didn’t reject his mother or feel awkward . He answered her naturally, “Yes, mother . I will go back now . ”
Yan Huang’s mother, Shui Xiaolian, heard Yan Huang’s cold voice and hurriedly asked, “Yan Huang, what happened to you? Were you bullied?”
His mother took Yan Huang’s coldness as a sign of depression from being bullied .
“Mother, you are thinking too much . Only I can bully other people . No one would bully me . ”
His mother laughed . “My son is all grown up now . I am very happy . Hurry up and come back . ”
“Sure . ”
Jiangnan city was the main city . It was situated along the sea on the South part of the country . It encompassed a huge area and had a few million in population . Outside the main city of Jiangnan city, there were many satellite cities . Yan Huang’s parents and his grandparents lived in a satellite city called Jiangning city .
In order to give their son a better learning environment and better opportunities, Yan Huang’s parents sent him to study at the Jiangnan city in hope that he would get into a good university .
As the spiritual power started appearing again, the importance of university rose . It became a sacred institute .
Eight universities had set up a faculty called the “Cultivation” faculty . As long as you could get into the university, you could cultivate no matter what your status was .
This was the main reason why his parents sent Yan Huang to the Jiangnan First High . This was why Lan Zhirou placed so much importance on the university entrance examination . The Jiangnan university in Jiangnan city was one of the eight universities .
Cities developed and changed rapidly . Cultivation had become a trend in current society . Once someone entered one of the eight universities, they would have the chance to practice cultivation .
Yan Huang recalled the memories he had with his new parents .
His mother, Shui Xiaolian, was working at a traditional Chinese medicine shop . Her salary was low, while his father worked at his family’s steel business .
The Yan family’s steel business was passed down since the Qing Dynasty . It was said to have more than 300 years of history . After they entered the modern era, the industrial revolution happened and the Yan family’s steel business had had a hard time surviving . They even closed down for a period of time .
However, ever since the spiritual power appeared, refineries started becoming important again .
Yan Huang’s father had three other siblings . They were called Yan Mingguang, Yan Mingzong, Yan Mingyao, and Yan Mingzu . If you take the last character from each of their names, it would form a four-letter phrase which meant to bring glory to their ancestors . The four of them resurrected their steel refinery business under the leadership of their grandfather, Yan Haobo .
Yan Huang’s father was the third in line and he had an honest personality . Hence, he was just a normal blacksmith . He didn’t earn much . He had to put in a lot of effort in order to pay for Yan Huang’s school fees .
Yan Huang’s results were bad in his three years in High school, so there was little hope that he could enter university . His parents had to bear with the questions and stress that they got from other people .
