He is currently in the Dragon Clan and has married Erii.

This must be what it feels like to meet your father-in-law!

……

While Tang Yu was busy meeting his father-in-law, on the other side, on the ninth basement floor of the Genji Heavy Industries building, behind a heavy iron door...

Inside the iron gate lies the largest vault of the Snake Clan! It holds over three percent of all of Japan's wealth, with countless jewels and gold piled haphazardly on the ground like junk. If an ordinary person were lucky enough to enter this place, they might feel as if they were seeing paradise.

At this moment, in this "paradise on earth," three people dressed in different clothes sat facing each other very calmly.

Angers, who had just come out of Tang Yu's ward, was prominently featured!

With some difficulty, Angers placed the plaster cast on his arm onto the low table, then taunted Hango: "Old man Hango, why do you look like you're about to die? Are you about to pass away? It's good that you're gone, one less person to share the spoils with us!"

Angers' tone was filled with malice.

"You're still alive, how could I bear to die? It would be so lonely to leave an old bastard like you in this world!" At this moment, Han Gao's face was pale. He coughed weakly twice and retorted to Angers in a nonchalant manner.

Both old men were bruised and battered, and the third person in the room was no exception!

Wearing a black trench coat, Genji slowly poured a cup of tea for the two old men and himself. He picked up his own cup and sipped it like a hermit.

Perhaps the act of swallowing aggravated his wounds, for Genjiro's lips twitched involuntarily.

During that "god-slaying" battle that day, this guy was affected by the White Emperor's words of divine power and oracle, and he knocked himself unconscious early on.

The White Emperor had no particular thoughts about an enemy who had already fainted.

Although the White Emperor did not deliberately target him, the aftershocks of the battle still affected the poor patriarch.

When the White Emperor fell and the battle ended, the cleanup crew from the Snake Clan found their patriarch at the bottom of the water storage well.

When they found Genjiro, the unfortunate guy had a large piece of metal stuck in his stomach, and bright red blood was flowing all over the ground as if it were free.

If it weren't for Genjiro's unimaginably strong physical abilities as an "Emperor," he would have been meeting God long ago!

"Ahem... Gentlemen, we still have plenty of time to bicker, so let's get down to business first!" Genji snapped his fingers in a very pretentious manner.

The sound of gears turning echoed from the thick walls of the vault. After a moment, the long shelf filled with gold bars slowly opened, and a cylindrical container was slowly pushed out from a hidden compartment behind the shelf.

Through the bulletproof glass on the surface of the container, the three people could clearly see what was inside.

It was a skeleton that could be called a work of art.

Even though the skeleton's owner had been dead for a long time, it still shimmered with a mysterious silvery-white light. Upon closer inspection, one could also faintly sense the weight emanating from the skeleton.

"This is the Dragon Bone Cross left behind by the 'White Emperor,' containing the Dragon King's power that hybrids dream of! Today's meeting... will decide the ownership of this Dragon Bone Cross!" Genji said softly.

"Are we finally getting to the point?" Han Gao rubbed his hands together excitedly. "After all this time without any movement, I thought you Snake Clan wanted to monopolize the White Emperor's legacy!"

Yuan Zhisheng remained silent.

To be honest, this tempting idea had flashed through his mind more than once, but then he would have to join forces with the forces represented by these two guys to deal with the Secret Society...

It's absolutely impossible for me to take it all for myself!

167 A reprimand from my father-in-law

Although Genjiro's expression remained as cold as ever, the experienced Angers and Henkel keenly discerned his true thoughts from the glint in his eyes.

"Damn it, you actually thought about keeping it all for yourself?!" Han Gao immediately lost his composure!

"How could that be? I'm a champion of justice! How could a champion of justice do something so shameless?" Genji's expression didn't change at all; his ability to lie through his teeth was clearly at its maximum level.

"Alright, gentlemen! Enough with the small talk, let's get down to business!" Genji placed his hands on the table, his tone unusually serious.

"Regarding this 'Godslaying' mission, our Snake Clan has contributed a great deal, including intelligence, air support, dealing with high-ranking officials, and a large number of personnel... So, it's not unreasonable for us to ask for 50%!"

“Of course it’s not excessive!” Angers chimed in. “Our Kassel College’s elite team also contributed greatly to this mission, and Tang Yu was even unconscious for several days! In addition, we consumed a huge amount of resources by using the ‘Heavenly Punishment’ satellite… Therefore, on behalf of Kassel College, I want 50%!” Angers said with a smile.

"Wait, you guys need to pause for a second!" Han Gao was panting angrily. He put his hands behind his back and pulled out a bronze-colored revolver from his belt under his clothes.

Alchemy Wheel of Texas Dawn!

This was Henkel's beloved gun, which he usually took great care of, but now... Henkel angrily slammed the revolver onto the table.

"You two bastards, if your family takes 50%, what will our mixed-race family get? Do you want me to work for free? I'm telling you two bastards, if you don't give me a satisfactory share today, I'll put every single bullet in this revolver into your dog heads!"

"Don't get agitated, my old friend! There's still room for negotiation, isn't there?" Angers patted Henrault on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Anger is bad for your health. You have five broken ribs, and what you need most right now is rest! Don't get too angry, or you'll ruin your health!"

……

After some friendly (and sometimes violent) negotiations, the three parties finally agreed on a ratio that satisfied all of them.

The Snake Clan took 30%, the Mixed-Blood Family took 30%, and Kassel College, which contributed the most to this mission, took 40%.

And so, the three men at the pinnacle of world power reached an agreement. With bruised and battered faces, they walked out of the vault arm in arm, each beaming with a smile of having gained an enormous advantage.

After the initial joy came a deep sense of exhaustion! They hadn't had a proper night's sleep in almost two weeks...

But now is not the time to rest!

All three knew that after solving the big problem of the White Emperor, another big trouble was waiting for them!

The Secret Society... or more accurately, the Secret Society's Council of Elders! This is a colossal entity that has existed throughout human history, and the price to pay for dealing with them would be beyond imagination!

Walking down the corridor leading to the Genji Heavy Industries dormitory, Angers pondered the future plans for Kassel College. At the end of the corridor, he unexpectedly saw Tang Yu looking dejected.

"Tang Yu, what happened?" Angers was very concerned about his student!

"It's nothing, I just got scolded by my father-in-law!" Tang Yu waved his hand helplessly, his face full of despair.

"Hmm... You got scolded by your father-in-law? It's nothing, it's nothing! Kid, you have to take it easy!" Angers gave Tang Yu an encouraging look. "No pain, no gain. You have to believe that your fierce father-in-law is just the final test to marry a beautiful wife! So, keep going, my student!" At this moment, Angers transformed into a life mentor, patiently guiding Tang Yu with philosophical words.

After listening to Angers' words of encouragement, Tang Yu felt his fighting spirit reignite!

He nodded emphatically, then asked, "By the way, Principal! Speaking of which, why are you so experienced?" Tang Yu looked at Angers with a strange expression. "If I remember correctly, you seem to be single all this time..."

Angers: "..."

"Did I drink your water or eat your food while I'm single? You don't hit someone in the face, and you don't insult someone by revealing their shortcomings! Is it really meaningful for you, you little rascal, to undermine me like this?" Angers mentally ranted about his student.

After Tang Yu said that, Angers felt that his mood was ruined for the whole day!

……

After saying goodbye to Angers, Tang Yu took the elevator to the top floor of Genji Heavy Industries. Following the path next to the glass curtain wall, Tang Yu easily arrived at a pink door.

There was a yellow duck drawn on the door, and below the duck drawing was a very abstract little monster carved crookedly.

Judging from her clumsy technique, Erii must have put it on herself.

"Eri, are you there?" Tang Yu reached out and gently knocked on the pink door. With a creak, the door slowly opened.

"Why didn't you lock the door?" Tang Yu muttered as he went inside.

As soon as you enter, you are greeted by a brown bear plush toy that is taller than a person. This is the birthday gift that Tang Yu gave to Erii when he came to Japan.

A handwritten sign hung on the doll, which read "Eri Ayu's Brown Bear."

The room was decorated in pink, a color that evokes a girl's heart. It looked very cozy and must have been very comfortable to stay in. No wonder, how could Uesugi Kotsushi, this kind of father, let his daughter suffer any injustice?

Since Tachibana Masamune was chopped into pieces and Uesugi Koshi made a strong comeback to the Snake Clan, Erii moved her residence here from that cold hospital.

As Erii comes into contact with more people and things, the originally very lonely girl gradually becomes more cheerful.

Although Erii is still unable to speak due to her bloodline, she smiles more and more often, and her overall mental state has improved.

Tang Yu gently closed the door. Several controllers were scattered in front of the TV, which emitted a faint glow. The screen was currently displaying the character selection screen for "The King of Fighters".

It looks like Erii was playing games not long ago!

"Where did Erii go? Why didn't she even turn off the TV?" Tang Yu looked around in confusion. He took a few steps deeper into the room, and suddenly, Tang Yu's body stiffened on the spot.

The sound of running water reached his ears, and the source of the sound... was in the bathroom to Tang Yu's right.

The girl's beautiful curves were faintly visible behind the frosted glass. In an instant, Tang Yu felt a heat rising to the tip of his nose.

"Do not look at what is improper, do not look at what is improper!" Tang Yu hurriedly turned his head and silently recited the Diamond Sutra in his heart. Of course, this was just a psychological comfort and actually did not work at all!

------------

168 The ingenious use of the dragon bone cross

Half an hour later, Erii, her hair still wet, came out of the bathroom. She was wrapped in a thin bathrobe, and her fair arms shimmered with a hazy glow under the warm yellow light.

Erii walked into the living room while drying her hair with a girlish pink towel.

She's only halfway through the game! Giving up halfway isn't Erii's style!

Erii had only taken a few steps after coming out of the bathroom when she saw Tang Yu sitting on the sofa. At that moment, Tang Yu was staring at the wall, covered in sweat.

"Yu, is my room hot?" Erii skillfully found a stack of sticky notes in the small drawer next to the coffee table, wrote and drew on them, and then handed the notes to Tang Yu.

"Hehe, it is a bit hot! Don't worry about me, I'll just sit for a while!" Tang Yu chuckled.

"Then... Yu, do you want to play video games with me?" Erii handed over another note.

"Of course, I came here specifically to play video games with Erii!" Tang Yu smiled.

"Thank you, Yu! Yu is the best!" Erii smiled sweetly. Looking at the little monster's innocent smile, Tang Yu was momentarily stunned.

Erii plugged a pink controller into the TV, then placed the red controller she had played with into Tang Yu's hand.

"Ayu, let's begin!" Erii's big eyes sparkled with eager anticipation.

"I'll definitely fight more seriously this time!" Tang Yu was a little nervous. He suddenly thought of the scene where Erii used Mai Shiranui to beat him to a pulp last time.

Sigh... I don't want to look back on those days!

"By the way, Yu, would you like some dessert?" Erii threw down the controller in her hand, ran to her bedside, and pulled out a box of snacks from under the bed.

"It smells so good!" As soon as the box was opened, Tang Yu smelled a rich aroma of cream.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony! Erii, you should eat too!"

The sweet, creamy flavor burst in her mouth, and Erii smiled with her eyes narrowed.

……

Half an hour later, Tang Yu dropped the controller, rolled his eyes, and collapsed to the ground as if his bones had been removed. His body was filled with gray-black resentment, and he could be described as filled with resentment.

Of course, this resentment was directed at himself...
