Chapter 17 You are dying and the Fu family explodes
Eltz, Central District, No. 512.
The morning light is like a delicate paintbrush, outlining every inch of space with the most gentle strokes. The sunlight seems to be particularly fond of this territory, spreading itself evenly in every corner of the apartment.
In this tranquility, Wei Yian slowly opened his eyes and felt a sense of relaxation and relief in his heart.
He was in a daze for a few seconds, looking at the familiar ceiling in front of him, just lying there quietly, doing nothing, enjoying this rare tranquility.
At this moment, a flash of silver-white came into his sight, and a few thin strands fell lightly on Wei Yinan's pillow like drizzle in the morning mist.
Spider silk?
He reached out his hand and gently gathered them together, twisting them with his fingertips, only to find that they were just a few snow-white hairs.
Some blurry images appeared in his mind, and his fingers seemed to feel the soft touch of the owner of the hair again. Wei Yian couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart:
I wonder if he's awake now...
【Host, you are dying. 】
The sudden sound of the system broke the warmth of the morning.
Wei Yian ignored the mourning bird and checked the system panel:
[Survivor——Wei Yian
Experience points (killed enemies): 999+/+∞
Level (LV9): Lieutenant General of the Infinite Empire
Followers (% ): 99+/+∞
Admirers (?%): 999+/+∞
Soulmate (?%): ? / +∞
Dragon Aotian Index: 71% (C-level)
Just as he expected, the various values remained basically unchanged, but based on the current energy conversion rate, it would not be a problem to hold on for another ten days or half a month.
The system seemed unwilling to be left out, continuing to use its unique emotional simulation function, looking deeply distressed:
You've spent over eight years pushing the mission to 71%! You were on the verge of a B-level victory, but now... Sigh, 030, it's really not worth it for you!
Faced with this contradictory encouragement, Wei Yian ignored it. He just twisted the hair in his hand and said calmly: "Speak to the point."
[Even when the system was activated, the will to survive was so strong...]
The system took one look at his expressionless face and said dejectedly: [——Okay, something happened to the Fu family.]
Before he finished speaking, the door opened automatically and Fu Yan almost ran in. The Omega's face turned pale, but he still tried to force an apologetic smile:
"Sorry, I might have to be away for a while."
Fu Yan's mind was in a state of confusion. Although he still didn't understand what Beta had meant by "container," there was no doubt that Wei Yian was about to enter a period of pheromone disorder, and his legal partner was asking to leave at this moment...
Thinking of this, Omega's heart seemed to be tightly strangled by an invisible thread, and thousands of words condensed in his throat, making him not know how to speak.
"I……"
"Can."
Wei Yian looked straight at him, his bloodless skin almost transparent under the direct sunlight, his jet-black hair hanging down in front of his eyelashes, blocking his insightful gray eyes and adding a hint of sickness to his look.
The man responded calmly as always:
"Go ahead."
These two simple yet powerful words were like a sharp knife, severing all the chaotic thoughts in the Omega's mind. Fu Yan was stunned for a moment, and looked at him deeply with her sparkling eyes. After a long while, she uttered:
"Wait until I come back."
Then Omega decisively turned and left, leaving behind a determined back.
…
Support the family.
There was silence in the luxurious and solemn meeting room. Almost all the prominent members of the family gathered here, and there was a subtle tension and depression in the air.
In this crowd of people with light yellow hair, Fu Yan at the top was the odd one out. He looked down at the crowd indifferently from above, with a formal smile on his face.
"Fu Yan, the elders are very worried that you found a partner without saying anything."
An elder of the family spoke first, his words expressing both concern and rebuke:
"No matter how good General Wei is, he's still a Beta. If any of you regret it later, it would only make you an enemy..."
There was a chorus of agreement from the conservative seats below. After all, the family's reputation and future could not afford any mistakes.
"Oh, Xiaoyan is not young anymore. Young people nowadays advocate free love."
Someone came out to try to smooth things over, but then changed the subject:
"Everyone has seen how difficult it has been for you over the years, but now that you're finally married, having children is definitely your top priority. The fertility rate for Betas and Omegas is already low..."
As he spoke, he observed Fu Yan's expression:
"But it's hard to say for sure. There's still a lot of time to go. We don't have any other intentions. We just want to show our concern for the future of the Fu family's bloodline..."
"Why are you talking so much!"
A middle-aged Alpha slammed the table, as if to encourage himself, then stood up and said:
"I'll be frank. It's not appropriate for an Omega like you to be the head of the family. Now that you might not be able to pass on the throne, you should be sensible and abdicate, head of the family!"
This sentence was like a stone dropped into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples. The family members below whispered to each other, and finally all their eyes turned to the top, waiting for his response.
The air fell into deathly silence, with only faint breathing sounds and the occasional rustling of clothes echoing throughout the conference room.
Fu Yan sat quietly above, his hand gently caressing the jewel on the chair. The fading amethyst, once a symbol of the patriarch's power and glory, now lost its former brilliance. Just like the Fu family, no matter how much effort the descendants put into its upkeep and restoration, it could not prevent its inherent decay and decay.
Boring... just as boring as ever... Fu Yan thought as he forcibly broke off the precious gem and held it in his palm. He felt the familiar weight and warmth, as if he had once again grasped the pulse of his family's destiny.
Omega could almost guess which idiots were stirring up trouble, and for what ridiculous reasons. If it weren't for the subsequent plan, he wouldn't want to leave that warm apartment, leave that...
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Fu Yan smiled and slowly stood up. There was a detached calmness in his eyes:
"My answer is still the same as it was back then."
Seeing the patriarch's increasingly calm expression, the crowd below shuddered, and the room fell silent. The hearts of the older generation were even more disturbed. They recalled the storms of the past, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
As he spoke, Fu Yan slowly opened his five fingers, revealing the gem in his hand that symbolized power and wealth.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on it: this was a creation carefully crafted by the gods, so fragile, yet so captivating; the intoxicating amethyst was like a sleeping star, shining with a dazzling yet poignant light under the light...
With a bang—
"Wine" poured from that hand, and gorgeous fragments instantly splashed everywhere, like a dazzling but short-lived meteor shower; the crystal fragments hit the table, playing a complex symphony - the stars fell.
"Whoever wants it should come and get it. You won't get it by begging."
Beyond this visual feast, Omega's words were cold and decisive, revealing an unquestionable authority.
His long, light-colored hair had a sharp gleam under the light, complementing his deep, piercing eyes and giving off an invisible pressure.
As the words fell, the crystal fragments of the gem jumped and spun on the ground, and finally fell silent, as if a piece of history had come to an end.
After the fall, Omega didn't stay for a second longer and walked straight out of the conference room. Surprisingly, a large group of silent majority loyally followed him and left this place that was once full of power and glory.
"You!" The middle-aged Alpha looked at the scene in a daze, but he could do nothing. He was angry but dared not say anything.
"Alas... the world is about to change again..."
The elders looked at the yellow-purple crumbs that fell like rain on the table and sighed deeply. Then, they too staggered away, as if sensing a profound change in their family's future.
"A bunch of cowards!"
The middle-aged Alpha spat, but felt uneasy. He looked around and prepared to leave in anger.
Suddenly, a hand like an iron clamp pressed down on his shoulder, and a sinister voice sounded in his ear:
"Boss Fu - table, don't forget to compensate."
…
[Host! Are you really going to let him go? He's a high-level Omega after all. If we truly combine, he could even extend your life!]
Wei Yian ignored him. He was weaving a complex network of relationships in his mind and making the final preparations.
The Royal Family... The Military... The Association... The Parliament...
Xiao family... You family... Fu family... Zhao family...
A sudden reminder of a special communication interrupted his thoughts, and Wei Yian picked up the phone:
"Wei Yian! You are such a troublemaker!"
You Zheng's distorted face appeared on the virtual projection screen. "I'm really impressed. You could choose anyone else as your matchmaker, but you had to pick that guy from the Fu family!"
"Isn't he your partner?" Wei Yian responded indifferently without looking up.
"he--!"
You Zheng's anger suddenly died down. He stumbled and said, "When did you know..."
When... Wei Yian thought casually: Maybe at the celebration banquet? Or perhaps at the matchmaking center? These places were where the You family had the strongest control. If You Zheng didn't want them to meet and marry smoothly, he could easily interfere...
However, it was not until that moment that all this was confirmed. Before this, he had only guessed, but he did not expect to verify the truth with just one try.
"Isn't this better? We are all friends." Wei Yian said lightly.
"Right, right, right! We're all friends!" You Zheng quickly agreed, then cheered up: "It's because we're friends that I know what kind of person he is! While he's not around, I'm telling you, this kind of Omega is really not worth having. He—"
Just as You Zheng was talking non-stop, Wei Yian suddenly had a premonition and looked out the window abruptly.
The next second, a loud bang suddenly broke through the sky, the earth seemed to be shaking, and a shrill alarm sounded throughout the central area.
"Holy crap! The Fu family exploded!"
