Human Of Rise In Against The Gods

The Next Day.

"May I know the reason for the visit of the Tang Family Head and the Ye Family Head, especially since we have just finished my mother's funeral?" Yu Tian asked indifferently while sipping his tea and looking at Ye Qing Mei and Tang Jie, who sat before him with several of their followers.

Although Yu Tian knew their intentions weren't good, he didn't want to break the superficial peace between them, at least not for now, as he was still very weak. After training all night, he had only reached the 5th Elementary Profound Realm. This was quite good, especially since training would become harder in the future due to the lack of Profound strength in the air.

"The Tang Family and Li Family share a good relationship, and there is a marriage contract between you and my daughter Tang Zi Yan. That's why we came to offer our condolences to the Li Family for the loss of Li Yan and to assist you if you need anything," said Tang Jie with a sly smile while sipping her tea. It was obvious that she intended to take advantage of Li Yan's death, even bringing Tang Zi Yan along to reaffirm the marriage contract between them.

"I see. In that case, I thank the Tang Family Head for her good intentions. However, my mother has already been buried, and I am now the Li Family Head," Yu Tian replied with a light smile, placing the green tea cup aside and turning his gaze to Ye Qing Mei. "So, may I know the reason for the visit of the Ye Family Head? Unlike the Tang Family, I don't recall our families having a marriage contract with you."

As Yu Tian spoke, everyone in the room fell silent. The members of the Tang Family and Ye Family stared at him in shock and disbelief, clearly not expecting a man to become the Li Family Head.

"Ahem! Li You Wei, are you really the Li Family Head?" Ye Qing Mei asked with some doubt and disbelief, but upon seeing that neither Li Huang'er nor the Li Family Elders objected, she knew the answer in her heart.

"That's correct, but I don't think the Ye Family Head needs to concern herself with this matter," Yu Tian said with a clear frown. An aura of a Supreme Ruler unconsciously pressed down on those present, responding to Yu Tian's emotions.

'Impressive! I never expected the Li Family to be foolish enough to make Li You Wei the Family Head,' Ye Qing Mei thought, shocked, while Tang Jie celebrated inwardly. 'With this, the Li Family will be ours when Li You Wei marries Zi Yan.'

"..." Ye Qing Mei said nothing and silently observed the interaction between Yu Tian and Li Huang'er. Even though Li Huang'er was her daughter, she bore the Li Family name. Ye Qing Mei wanted her to become the Li Family Head, but she couldn't reveal Huang'er's identity, even though it was known to many. More importantly, Huang'er didn't seem interested in becoming the Li Family Head and was content sipping tea on the side.

"With Li Yan's death, the grudges between the Li Family and the Ye Family are over," Ye Qing Mei said slowly after a long silence. "I hope we can cooperate in the future to improve both families."

Although Ye Qing Mei hated Li Yan, she couldn't help but feel sorrow at her death. She had wanted to kill Li Yan with her own hands to settle past grievances, but it seemed they couldn't achieve that now.

As for destroying the Li Family, she didn't have such thoughts, since Huang'er was her daughter. And while Li You Wei wasn't her son, he was the son of the man she loved.

After speaking, Ye Qing Mei left with her entourage, but not before giving Tang Jie a warning look. She wouldn't show mercy if Tang Jie tried to harm her daughter or the son of the man she loved.

'Foolish...' Tang Jie couldn't help but mock Ye Qing Mei in her mind. She had no intention of destroying or harming the Li Family, as this cake would eventually belong to her due to the marriage contract between Yu Tian and Zi Yan.

"Well, in that case, this aunt will also take her leave," Tang Jie said with a gentle smile toward Yu Tian before turning to Zi Yan. "Zi Yan, stay and accompany your fiancé during this period. Help him, as he must have much work to do now that he's become the Li Family Head."

'Old hag...' Yu Tian didn't hesitate to curse Tang Jie in his mind. She clearly intended to use Zi Yan to take over the Li Family, but he didn't stop her, as he had his own plans. 'Let's see what you'll do when your beloved daughter turns against you.'

Imagining Tang Jie's expression when she saw Zi Yan abandon the Tang Family and join his side, Yu Tian couldn't help but reveal an evil smile.

"Alright, I'll do my best," Zi Yan reluctantly agreed to her mother's orders and stayed while Tang Jie left with her entourage.

"Elder Ju, work on changing the Li Family name to the Yu Family. Also, my name will no longer be Li You Wei; from now on, I will be Yu Tian," Yu Tian ordered before turning to Huang'er beside him. "Sister, let's go. I have something for you. Elder Ju, make sure to arrange accommodations for Lady Tang."

"As you command, Family Head," the elderly Li Ju replied respectfully, bowing to Yu Tian. She didn't dare question his orders, as the terrifying pressure and killing intent still lingered in her mind.

As Li Ju left with Zi Yan to carry out Yu Tian's orders, Yu Tian went with Huang'er to the back garden to teach her some combat techniques. He remembered that, in the original story, Huang'er had learned several martial arts techniques that were lethal and destructive to those who practiced them.

Although Yu Tian hadn't expected to work so hard in this world, thinking he could treat it as a vacation, he didn't mind putting in some effort. He planned to repay everything to the Heavenly Puppet he purchased to replace Yun Che. But for now, he would give it a new appearance and let it take charge once the situation stabilized, allowing him to enjoy life.
