Chapter 160

~9 min read 1,659 words

After learning his parents hadn't died in an accident, he had been plotting revenge ever since.

But Astellas Pharmaceutical is the Adagaki family's company!

Yukinoshita Haruno saw Li An's expression and hurriedly said, "Listen to me first. Your adoptive parents didn't know about this at the start—it was that man named Tian Zhong Youshu who did it on his own. When your adoptive parents found out, they fired Tian Zhong Youshu, and out of guilt toward you, they took you in!"

Hearing Yukinoshita Haruno's words, Li An's tightly clenched fists loosened slightly.

"Is that man named Tian Zhong Youshu still alive?" Li An asked in an icy tone.

Yukinoshita Haruno immediately answered, "He's alive, and he's even joined Wu Tian Pharmaceutical Industry Co., Ltd., becoming the vice president!" Yukinoshita Haruno nodded, then added, "Through my investigation, I discovered that your biological parents' company had developed a special-effect drug that quickly dissolves blood clots. Tian Zhong Youshu represented Astellas at the time to acquire the patent rights, but your parents refused, so Tian Zhong Youshu developed the idea of killing your parents. The reason he can now become the vice president of Wu Tian Pharmaceutical Industry Co., Ltd. is because he gave the special-effect drug your parents developed to Wu Tian Pharmaceutical Industry Co., Ltd."

After Yukinoshita Haruno finished speaking, she took a stack of investigation materials and handed them to Li An.

Hearing this much, Li An basically understood the gist of the matter.

He took the materials and looked—sure enough, it was pretty much what he'd guessed.

Yukinoshita Haruno asked with some concern, "Are we going to go up against Wu Tian Pharmaceutical Industry Co., Ltd.? That's the largest pharmaceutical company in Sakura Country!"

However, there was one more thing she hadn't said—Wu Tian Pharmaceutical Industry Co., Ltd. was not only the largest pharmaceutical company in Sakura Country, but also had numerous senior government officials backing it behind the scenes.

Over the years, Wu Tian Pharmaceutical Industry Co., Ltd. had indeed bailed out many senior officials.

There was also organ trafficking—many senior government officials who had undergone organ-replacement surgeries had received their organs from Wu Tian Pharmaceutical Industry Co., Ltd.

Some things simply cannot be exposed.

The senior leadership of Sakura Country also cannot be allowed to be exposed.

Hearing Yukinoshita Haruno's words, Li An instead revealed a disdainful smile.

What do the senior leadership of Sakura Country count for? If they dare to yap too much, Li An wouldn't mind wiping them out and replacing the government directly.

Thinking of this, a fierce crimson glint flickered in Li An's eyes.

Wiping out Sakura Country... seemed like it wasn't impossible either.

Yukinoshita Haruno saw Li An's expression and was immediately startled.

Only at this moment did she remember that Li An was a being who transcended the mundane world.

How could a mundane government possibly control him!

Back home, Li An called over Zen'in Maki and Kurahashi Kyouko, telling them to notify the Jujutsu Society and Yin-Yang Realm behind each of them, and have both the Jujutsu Society and Yin-Yang Realm simultaneously pressure the senior leadership of the government, forcing the government to shut down Wu Tian Pharmaceutical Industry Co., Ltd. and hand over the patent for the special-effect drug his parents had developed.

Also, to bind Tian Zhong Youshu, who had killed his parents, along with those involved in organ trafficking, and deliver them all to him.

If it wasn't done within a day, he would personally take action and wipe out the senior leadership of the government!

Zen'in Maki and Kurahashi Kyouko, hearing these words, were also startled.

But naturally, they were on Li An's side.

Even if Li An wanted to wipe out all of Sakura Country at this moment, they would unhesitatingly be willing to become the blades in Li An's hand, swung at their own race and compatriots!

Without the slightest hesitation, the two women immediately called the senior leadership of the Zhoushulian Alliance and the Yin-Yang Hall, conveying Li An's meaning.

Upon learning the news, the senior leadership of the Zhoushulian Alliance and the Yin-Yang Hall were collectively shaken!

After the two women finished their calls, they both looked at Li An with worried faces.

Kurahashi Kyouko couldn't help but say, "Pressuring the government like this—won't something go wrong?"

Zen'in Maki, however, said with full confidence, "Don't worry, no one in this world can threaten Li An!"

Since following Li An through to the DanMachi World and witnessing the gods, her horizons had also been broadened.

Moreover, Zen'in Maki was very clear on Li An's strength—as long as he wanted it, destroying the world would be effortless.

All the supernatural beings of this world combined were just a colony of ants before him, easily crushed with a single stomp.

With such strength, what did the government count for?

That night, Li An skipped dinner and went back to his room to rest early.

All the women could see he was in a bad mood.

Zen'in Maki and Yukinoshita Haruno exchanged a glance, then nodded.

Both women were already Li An's women, and had been intimate with him.

To soothe Li An's emotions, they planned to attend to him together tonight.

But when they arrived at the room, they found it completely empty—Li An was nowhere to be seen.

Type-Moon World.

Germany, the Einzbern family headquarters.

When he left last time, Li An had forgotten to adjust the time flow, so only a month and a half had passed here as well.

The moment Li An descended into the castle, he saw three girls chatting.

Besides Claudia and Irisviel, there was also a beautiful woman with long, straight black hair.

The woman gave off a serene beauty—at a glance, one could tell she was a lady from a fine family.

Li An only needed one glance to recognize her identity.

Zenjou Aoi!

Rin and Sakura's mother!

It seemed Natalia hadn't disappointed him—she had really gotten this woman here.

With all three ladies assembled, the next step was the baby-making work.

He wondered whether he could have children with them who would be like Rin, Sakura, Caren, Illya, and the others!

Seeing Li An, Zenjou Aoi, not knowing him, appeared somewhat reserved and unfamiliar.

But Claudia and Irisviel didn't care about any of that—they threw themselves straight into Li An's arms, like little kittens acting spoiled with their master.

Li An held one in each arm, and his previously poor mood improved considerably.

"Where's Natalia?" Li An asked the two women.

"Big Sister Natalia is reading in the library," Claudia answered first.

"Master, let me tell you something — Big Sister Natalia has quit smoking recently, and there's no longer any smell of cigarettes on her." Irisviel said so too, blinking her big pretty eyes.

Li An understood what she meant, and couldn't help but show a smile.

If Natalia has quit smoking, she really is quite a fine woman.

But Li An didn't press further on that topic, and instead looked toward Zenjou Aoi in the distance and said, "Aren't you going to introduce the new sister to me?"

Claudia, as always the quickest to react, immediately introduced her: "Master, this is the Zenjou Aoi you've been looking for!"

Li An nodded and carefully sized up Zenjou Aoi.

Classical style in appearance, delicate features, with a head of soft, straight, long black hair.

Her face always wore a faint smile; the very first impression she gave was one of gentleness, like a Yamato Nadeshiko.

Dressed in a pale-green long dress, she looked very serene sitting there.

She carried an air of noble elegance, like a young lady of a wealthy house who had been trained in etiquette from childhood.

If Irisviel is the "active" type, then Zenjou Aoi is the "still" type's mother — the impression she gives is that of a well-bred young lady who has become a mother.

All in all, Rin inherited her looks, and Sakura inherited her bearing.

No wonder she had Matou Kariya so smitten — she really is a stunner!

Zenjou Aoi grew a little embarrassed under Li An's gaze, her cheeks faintly red as she lowered her head.

Li An smiled at her and said, "Welcome to the Einzbern family's stronghold. I am the head of the family, Li An."

"Y-you... hello!" Zenjou Aoi stood up and hurriedly bowed as she spoke.

"There's no need to be so formal here — just treat me as a friend." Li An said, waving his hand.

"O-okay!" Zenjou Aoi nodded, looking somewhat relieved, though still a little stiff.

Li An shook his head helplessly, then let the three women continue chatting while he himself headed off to the library.

He had only just arrived at the library when Li An discovered that the once neat and tidy library was now a complete mess.

The books on the bookshelves had all been taken down, and the books were strewn everywhere.

The books that had originally been sorted by category had been thoroughly mixed up.

Natalia sat right there on the floor, with books on magic piled all around her.

At this moment she was completely unconcerned with her image, lying there on the ground with one leg crossed over the other, a book held in her hands as she read.

"Tell me, you as a woman — don't you care at all about hygiene and your image?" Li An couldn't help but complain.

Natalia heard Li An's presence, immediately put down the book in her hands, quickly stood up and laughed: "Head of the family, you're here."

Li An sighed, sat down at some random spot and asked: "Has the holy scabbard Avalon been found?"

"It's already been found!" Natalia said as she ran over to a pile of books, then pulled out a blue scabbard.

The scabbard was very new, not at all an antique.

No — it should be said that this scabbard has never changed at all.
