~5 min read 990 words

"I know very little."

Yin Tian answered very honestly.

Old Doctor Qu nodded, "Actually, I also come from the Imperial City."

Yin Tian wasn’t too surprised by Old Doctor Qu’s words.

Given that Old Doctor Qu, a single person, formed a family and had such a good relationship with Sir Du who came from the Imperial City, Yin Tian wouldn’t believe if someone said that Old Doctor Qu had no connections with the Imperial City.

"You don’t seem to be surprised."

Old Doctor Qu glanced at Yin Tian.

Yin Tian nodded, "I had more or less guessed it."

Old Doctor Qu smiled faintly, then continued, "Among the Six Great Families of the Imperial City, the heads are known as the Six Kings of the Imperial City."

"The Du Family is one, the Qu Family is another, and then there’s the Mu Family, Hou Family, Chi Family, and Wu Family."

"The Du Family possesses wealth that rivals nations, and my Qu Family is the foremost in the medical world."

At the mention of "foremost in the medical world," Yin Tian couldn’t help it and burst out laughing.

Old Doctor Qu glanced at Yin Tian again.

If it were someone else who suddenly laughed like that, he would definitely be very angry.

But he was aware of Yin Tian’s medical skills.

Yin Tian was able to solve the issues with Sir Du that the Qu Family couldn’t, which was enough to prove that Yin Tian’s medical skills were superior to those of the Qu Family.

"You lad..."

Old Doctor Qu shook his head, "As for the other families, they are all leaders in various fields; otherwise, they wouldn’t have the qualifications to settle in the Imperial City and be honored as one of the Six Families."

"In that case, I think I could too."

Yin Tian spoke very seriously.

Old Doctor Qu took it as if Yin Tian were joking and still spoke, "Above the Six Families of the Imperial City, there is still one existence."

"There is still one?"

Yin Tian asked in surprise.

"Yes."

Old Doctor Qu nodded, "That person is like a dragon seen only in glimpses; in my more than twenty years in the Imperial City, I have never once seen them."

Yin Tian scratched his head.

If Old Doctor Qu had seen that individual over twenty years ago, doesn’t that mean that person’s age must be at least the same as Old Doctor Qu’s, or even older?

"Generally speaking, the Six Families of the Imperial City seldom interfere with the affairs of Central City. Every time they appear, very serious issues are bound to occur, and this time is no exception."

Old Doctor Qu’s expression became serious, "So, I called you here mainly to remind you and to tell you about the matters related to the Imperial City. After all, you are the head of a first-class family and have the right to know these things."

"Thank you, Old Doctor Qu."

Yin Tian spoke very sincerely.

For Old Doctor Qu to take the initiative to tell him this meant that Old Doctor Qu genuinely wanted to protect him.

He had no reason to refuse Old Doctor Qu’s kindness.

"You don’t need to thank me."

Old Doctor Qu waved his hand, "I’m not welcomed in my family and was driven out. Inside the Imperial City, I’m hardly given any regard. It’s only because Sir Du and I knew each other since we were young, and he has helped me a lot. You saved his life, and he is not the kind to be ungrateful."

Yin Tian slowly nodded, clearly understanding that Old Doctor Qu was paving the way for him.

He blinked, looking at Old Doctor Qu with a smile, "So, I’m curious, how exactly were you expelled from your family?"

Old Doctor Qu’s face suddenly darkened, "Go on, what’s with these nosy questions?"

Yin Tian burst into loud laughter, then stood up and performed an ancient bow to Old Doctor Qu with great respect, "Old Doctor Qu, I thank you for sharing this information with me today."

Old Doctor Qu waved his hand again, "You lad, be off. I want to sleep now."

Yin Tian smiled, then stood up and left the Qu Family.

...

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

During this period, Yin Tian and the other first-class families had been at peace with one another.

Even the Chu Family, Lin Family, and Xuanyuan Family hadn’t troubled Yin Tian.

Yin Tian was glad for the ease, spending his days at home with Su Qinwei and the other girls, living a comfortable and relaxed life.

One early morning.

Yin Tian’s phone rang.

Yin Tian picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from Li Chang, the representative of Know-It-All.

"Boss."

Li Chang’s voice was very calm, "There’s been a change of power in Central City."

"What happened?"

"At least twenty forces have settled into Central City, and among them, seven families have become the new first-class families. The rest of them are all on the cusp of being first-class or are second-class families."

"So, what you’re telling me is that other divisions of that organization have also all arrived in Central City?"

"That’s right."

Li Chang’s voice came through, "These people are very curious about you. I’m worried that they will come looking for trouble with you shortly."

"So eager?"

"Can’t help it."

Li Chang let out a wry laugh, "Currently, your affairs have spread throughout all departments of the organization. However, they only know that you are the owner of Know-It-All and are unaware of your relationship with Shadow Hall."

"Okay."

Yin Tian nodded slowly, "Notify me in time if there’s any trouble."

"I understand."

"Hang up then."

As Yin Tian spoke, he had already ended the call.

He hadn’t had the chance to ponder these events when there was suddenly a sound of banging on the front gate.
