Chapter 1110: Huang Song

One month later.

Within the Huang Family, Huang Yan successfully replaced Huang Longji's position and took control of the Huang Family.

With Huang Wuji stationed, and Huang Wufeng and Huang Wuheng assisting, they quickly eliminated the Luo Family members originally within the Huang Family; those inclined toward Luo Feifei were split—some pledged loyalty to Huang Yan, some remained obstinate and were naturally dealt with.

Huang Wufeng and Huang Wuheng would not be courteous to them; those people who had once wielded power within the Huang Family naturally had to pay the price.

After the purge, Huang Yan rallied a group of people, giving them pills and other resources generously; those disciples naturally became loyal to him, surpassing his father Huang Longji, at least because the beneficiaries were members of the Huang Family, not the Luo Family.

Huang Yan allocated all resources that originally belonged to the Luo Family to his own people, which caused many within the Huang Family to side with him and support him, making his position as Family Head naturally stable.

Huang Wuji, having witnessed all this, said contentedly, "Yan'er, over the past month you have successfully taken control of the Huang Family. Grandfather has seen it and is very pleased. Compared with your father Huang Longji, you are more outstanding and more suitable to be the Huang Family's Family Head. With you here, Grandfather can be at ease."

"From now on, the Huang Family is entrusted to you. I hope you will act from the Huang Family's perspective, think more of its interests, and not damage the Huang Family's benefits."

"Do not be like your father, who favored others and brought disaster upon the Huang Family."

"Yes, Grandfather, the grandson will be careful," Huang Yan replied solemnly.

He would not… be like his father; he's had enough of those days and does not wish his own child to suffer the same disaster.

Huang Wuji nodded approvingly and asked, "Yan'er, regarding your father, how do you plan to handle it?"

It is his lingering worry; Huang Wuji ultimately cannot be ruthless toward his own son. After all, the son is his own, and he cannot treat him excessively; killing his son with his own hands is something his heart cannot bear.

This is the trouble he left for Huang Yan; if Huang Yan does not know how to deal with it, he might have his second and third brothers take care of it.

"Grandfather, rest assured, with the grandson here, the father cannot stir up trouble. If he dares to act recklessly, the grandson will make him regret it."

Huang Yan said solemnly, also telling Grandfather that he would not kill his father, thereby soothing Grandfather's mind.

Huang Wuji realized that the grandson had caught his true meaning, and he couldn't help but blush.

"Yan'er, you've suffered enough; after all, Longji is your father, you cannot commit patricide."

"In the future, if it truly reaches an unmanageable point, go to your second and third granduncles; they know what to do, Grandfather has already spoken to them."

"Grandson understands, Grandfather." Huang Yan was deeply moved; Grandfather had arranged everything for him.

Including his own father, everything had been arranged, and Huang Yan truly did not know how to handle it.

After all, it is his biological father; if he were to kill him, it would cause a sensation.

Even if no one says anything, those people would still gossip behind his back and affect his control over the Huang Family. Nearby clans would also point fingers, because someone who can kill his own father would surely be even more ruthless toward others.

Others cannot trust such a person and would not cooperate with him.

The cascade of repercussions is too great; Huang Yan cannot bear it, nor can the Huang Family.

Huang Wuji does not want Huang Yan to bear the stigma of patricide, so he has arranged things in advance.

"Your father poses no threat to you; the seals placed by your second and third granduncles are still strong. Without outside assistance, he cannot break through. Moreover, at the ancestral tomb, Grandfather has also sent people to watch him, forbidding others from approaching."

"You need not worry too much; if you are still uneasy, you may also send someone to keep watch, just in case."

Huang Yan clasped his hands and said, "The grandson obeys Grandfather's orders."

Huang Wuji waved his hand and said, "Alas, I am old now; only your father remains as a son, and my heart has softened. It's only to your detriment."

"The grandson is not afraid." Huang Yan clasped his hands and said, "Grandfather, rest assured; the grandson knows what to do."

"Good, good, good." Huang Wuji smiled with satisfaction, "My good grandson, the Huang Family is now yours."

"Your uncle Huang Song has also received news; he will return soon. When that time comes, you should go meet him."

Huang Song, the strongest prodigy of the Huang Family thirty years ago, was even more powerful than Huang Longji.

He is Huang Wufeng's son and also Huang Wufeng's pride.

He entered Luofu Mountain and became a true-transmission disciple there, serving as one of the Huang Family's trump cards and future backing.

Huang Song, however, is not enamored with the Huang Family's power; otherwise, he would seek to become Family Head, and there would be no place for Huang Longji.

"Uncle Huang Song is returning?" Huang Yan was thrilled. Uncle Huang Song had treated him well; before leaving the Huang Family, this uncle had always protected him and taught him cultivation methods. It can be said that Huang Yan's current achievements are half thanks to Huang Song.

Since Huang Song left the Huang Family, Huang Yan has been… targeted by Luo Feifei and her group.

The subsequent days need no further explanation.

"Yes, he recently messaged your second granduncle, saying he is on his way back; based on the distance, he should arrive within the next two days."

"When that time comes, you must stay vigilant and not become complacent."

Huang Wuji reiterated the instruction: Huang Song's return is a major matter for the Huang Family.

No one may become lax; Huang Yan naturally does not dare to be lax.

"Grandfather, rest assured, the child will not be lax regarding Uncle Huang Song."

Huang Yan clasped his hands and answered earnestly.

Huang Wuji nodded and said, "Given your relationship with Huang Song, now that you are Family Head, he will surely be delighted."

"Mm-hmm."

All the instructions having been given, Huang Wuji, tired, waved his hand and went to rest.

The matters of the Huang Family have been handed over to Huang Yan; this month's consolidation period is considered complete.

Three days later.

Huang Song, the Huang Family's pillar, returned, and at once went to pay respects to Huang Wufeng, then met Huang Yan. To be precise, Huang Yan went to pay respects to this uncle; the two had not seen each other for a long time, so they were naturally delighted.

Huang Yan had many things to say to this uncle, but after meeting, he could not find words.

"Yan'er, congratulations."

Huang Song, having heard what happened to Huang Yan, looked at him with a hint of compassion.

This nephew's situation was truly tragic, but fortunately, he has become the Huang Family's Family Head, and the past has passed.

The future holds no more suffering.

"Uncle Huang Song, why have you returned this time?"

Huang Yan asked cautiously; this Uncle Huang Song's sudden return did not seem like a mere visit.

He must have come with a mission; as for the mission, Huang Yan felt it was related to his own master.

Huang Song squinted and said, "You saw through it. This time I returned, and it has something to do with you—more precisely, it has something to do with your master."

"Your commotion was too loud; the Mang Mountain Demon Palace also sensed it. The Faction sent me here for a thorough investigation, and, incidentally, to study the disturbance at the Mang Mountain Demon Palace, to see whether it will rise again."

"Mainly those demon beasts have been settled for many years, but in recent years some have become restless, and the Faction is worried."
