The Long Tail Yan clan was once a formidable force in the mystical arts, but over a century ago, for unknown reasons, the Yan family's inherited abilities vanished. Their power and treasures were divided up, and by the time of Yan Xin's grandfather, they were no longer able to survive, and their entire family had died.
Grandpa Yan Xin had no choice but to go overseas. During all these years abroad, he always wanted to come back.
"I know."
"You know and..."
"So I'm going to restart the hunting group," Yan Xin said calmly. "Tell them I don't like the current name. I love nature and environmental protection. The new name will be the Natural Miracle Hermits Society, and the official name will be changed to the Natural Heritage Conservation Association."
"clear!"
The name is not important at all. What is important is to demonstrate the right to speak and status.
The Yan family had been gone for a long time and had long lost their former status. There was a reason why Yan Xin had delayed taking action since returning. Now that he had taken action, he had to establish the Yan family's authority.
This is the veto power.
If your words are spoken and no one listens, your prestige will plummet and no one will take you seriously. If you want to maintain your status, you must defend your honor to the death.
To put it bluntly, whoever dares to disobey will be killed.
At this point, it's a life-or-death struggle. If you can't defend your dignity and honor, you'll be marginalized. No one will play with you anymore, and any benefits you gain will have nothing to do with you. And forget about regaining recognition.
Yan Xin had already made up his mind and did not intend to do as his grandfather said.
According to grandpa's method, we should take it step by step. Even if the Yan family comes back, they will not be able to regain their former power.

The next day, Guan Jibai went out with his mother. They wanted to talk several times along the way, but hesitated and didn't speak. Guan Jibai didn't try to coax his mother this time. She could compromise on anything else.
Only Yan Xin cannot do that.
After entering the art compound, the two of them went their separate ways to report to their respective groups.
When Guan Jibai was about to reach the fifth group area, he was blocked by Niu Shanshan. She looked at Niu Shanshan with a smile, which made Niu Shanshan look embarrassed.
"What's the matter?" Guan Jibai put his hands in his trouser pockets while speaking today.
Today, she wore a very cute and stylish jumpsuit paired with a hand-knitted cable knit sweater by Guan Wanwan. The corduroy jumpsuit was warm, and since she's quite thin, it didn't make her look bulky, but instead perfectly accentuated her figure.
With her slender waist and perfectly shaped breasts, she became the most eye-catching presence the moment she entered the art and literature compound. Some young men passing by would glance at her and shyly lower their heads and quickly walk away.
As the person being watched, Guan Jibai behaved in a dignified and generous manner, secretly gaining a lot of goodwill and kindness along the way.
Niu Shanshan looked at Guan Jibai with complicated eyes, a hint of bitterness flashing through her heart. They both grew up in the countryside, but Guan Jibai didn't even know who his father was. He was worse than her.
She thought the two of them had something in common, but the reality was that they were not similar at all.
This made Niu Shanshan feel very lost and sad.
She had been nice to a few people in the group before because they all came from the countryside and had worked hard to get in, but their performance yesterday made her face the reality.
"I want to join you." Niu Shanshan gritted her teeth and finally said her purpose. "As long as you can protect me, I can ensure that Aunt Guan will not be bullied in our group three."
This is her bargaining chip, but it also depends on whether Guan Jibai can do it.
