"Thank you for the help, You Wei," Song Yunshu smiled happily while patting Yu Tian's shoulder. "Without your help, we would have lost, especially since I didn't expect Zhao Yutang to be on the opposing team."
Thinking about how she had just defeated Zhao Yutang in the game, Song Yunshu couldn't help but smile widely. Zhao Yutang was like a demon king in games, and no one could beat her.
"No need to thank me; I enjoyed playing too," Yu Tian smiled faintly, feeling happy to play video games again after such a long time.

"I wonder who's calling..." Yu Tian muttered with some annoyance, as his phone had been ringing for a while and was very distracting, though he had ignored it during the game. "Li Huang'er..."
According to Li You Wei's memories, Li Huang'er was only his sister. However, from those same memories, their relationship wasn't good enough for her to call him.
"Hello, Big Sister," Yu Tian answered after thinking for a moment. He didn't intend to abandon his identity as Li You Wei and didn't mind treating the Li family as his own. Unlike before, he was now more mature and no longer a stubborn child.
[Li You Wei, come home immediately. That woman has died.]
After saying this, Li Huang'er ended the call without even consoling her brother about their mother's death.
"..." Yu Tian fell silent, unsure what to do for a moment. He hadn't expected Li Huang'er to hang up on him, but he could only smirk bitterly. He put the phone back in his pocket and made sure to send a message to the driver, who should be waiting nearby.
"Sorry, I don't think I can join you to celebrate the victory. Something happened at home, and I need to go back immediately," Yu Tian told Song Yunshu. He didn't hesitate to leave. Although he didn't care much about Li Yan's death, it would cause chaos in the Li Family.
"Don't worry; there'll be another chance to celebrate our victory," Song Yunshu smiled widely and waved lightly so that Yu Tian wouldn't be too concerned. "Go home quickly; something serious must have happened for them to call you back in such a hurry."
Although Song Yunshu hadn't heard Yu Tian's conversation, calling a man home like that had to mean something significant. In this world, where power was in the hands of women, men's opinions weren't very important, and they weren't involved in crucial matters.
Yu Tian didn't say anything and walked towards the school gate. The driver had already arrived to take him home, and he got into the car heading to the Li Family's palace.

Li Family's Palace.
"What happened?" Yu Tian asked with a slight frown. Li Yan hadn't died at this point in the original story; she was supposed to die after becoming a whetstone for Chu Qing. But now she was dead upon his arrival. From Li You Wei's memories, there was no mention of Chu Qing, which meant he still hadn't gained his memories from the immortal world.
"That woman went to finalize a deal with some shady people but was killed by them," Li Huang'er said coldly. She didn't like Li Yan or even the Li Family because she had been treated poorly and labeled an illegitimate child.
"I see. So, what's going on with those fools?" Yu Tian asked, pointing to the Li Family elders. Although he could guess the situation, he needed to ask.
"Can't you tell just by looking?" Li Huang'er smirked and shook her head. "They're fighting to see who will become the Family Head."
"They don't even seem to see us," Yu Tian smiled coldly, watching how everyone ignored them and Li Yan's corpse, fighting over power. "By the way, do you want to become the Family Head?"
"Although I have no interest in it, there doesn't seem to be another choice. Otherwise, we'll end up living like beggars." Hearing Yu Tian's question, Huang'er smirked bitterly, but the pain was clear on her face.
"..." Yu Tian said nothing and walked toward the group of old women fighting next to Li Yan's corpse without even caring about burying her. His expression turned ice-cold.
Although Li Yan and Li Huang'er weren't his real family, he felt sorry for their fate in the original story. He didn't want to do nothing when he could help. While he couldn't do anything for Li Yan, who was already dead, he wouldn't let Huang'er suffer.
"Shut up!!" Yu Tian said coldly, staring at the old women. He released a part of his killing intent, freezing everyone in the room.
Even though Yu Tian hadn't started cultivating yet, his killing intent was terrifying. Just a fraction of it was enough to suppress a few people in the Spirit Profound Realm.
[Author's Note: The same cultivation levels as in the ATG World will be used.]
"The one who will become Family Head is me," Yu Tian declared, not hesitating to use Supreme Ruler, making everyone feel like an ancient beast was watching them. "If anyone objects, I'll make sure they don't see tomorrow's sunrise."
"..." Li Huang'er stared at her brother in shock. Although Yu Tian had spared her from his killing intent and pressure, she still felt the terrifying aura emanating from him. She couldn't believe that her spoiled brother now had a more frightening aura than that woman.
