Chapter 425: The Players of the Fourth Calamity (Part 5)

Long Zhou couldn't understand why Su Chen was here.
His mind was completely blank.
It's over...it's all over.
The Long family had no power to resist whatsoever. Even with the clan's sacred artifact unleashed, it was easily wiped out with a flick of his wrist.
Long Zhou's legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground.
The scene from his memory replayed itself. Even if he could go back to the past, at this moment, he felt only profound powerlessness.
In a single exchange, the Long family was destroyed, leaving only Long Zhou. And the young man who had destroyed the Long family was now standing before him.
A murmured voice echoed in Long Zhou's ears.
"Another reincarnated person."
His pupils constricted sharply.
He completely lost consciousness.
Having easily killed Long Zhou, Su Chen realized something: he seemed to have encountered a lot more reincarnated individuals.
Since regaining his memories, he had encountered two reincarnated individuals in a short period of time. This was clearly unusual.
"What major event has happened in the future?"
Su Chen wondered.
However, he quickly dismissed these thoughts.
It was simple.
He couldn't care less about reborn individuals or anything like that. If these guys dared to mess with him, he'd kill them one by one, or two by two.
Su Chen casually tore through space and returned to Da Rao City.
Butler Xiao, seeing this, understood that his young master had resolved everything.
The two returned to the Xiao family.
......
If the most powerful family on Tiancheng Star was the Long family,
then the most powerful sect was the Tianyi Sect.
At this moment, within the Tianyi Sect, a handsome and extraordinary young man opened his eyes.
"The Long family is gone... How could this be? The Long family I remember is gone, but definitely not wiped out at this time!"
The young man frowned, vaguely sensing that some things were different from what he remembered.
His name was Yun Qing, the strongest successor of the Tianyi Sect in ten thousand years, renowned in this era as one of the two unparalleled geniuses alongside Long Zhou.
But only he knew that this title of unparalleled genius, with the appearance of that man, seemed like a joke.
In his memory, the destruction of the Long family should have occurred five months later, but now it had been brought forward by five months, leading Yun Qing to a possibility.
"Could it be that Long Zhou, like me, is a reincarnated individual?"
That's right.
Yun Qing was also a reincarnated individual; he had returned to the present from the future.
He originally thought he was the only one who had been reincarnated, but now, with the premature destruction of the Long family, he vaguely realized that perhaps he wasn't the only one.
Upon learning of the Long family's annihilation overnight by a mysterious person, Yun Qing understood.
"Long Zhou must have provoked that monster again, leading to the premature annihilation of the Long family."
Understanding the entire cause and effect, Yun Qing felt lingering fear.
Such a thought had crossed his mind, but Yun Qing quickly dismissed it.
That man was simply too terrifying...so terrifying that even in this second life, Yun Qing dared not harbor the slightest disrespect for him.
He only wanted to stay far away from that terrifying man!
As it turned out, his decision was correct.
Otherwise, the Long family would have served as a cautionary tale for the Tianyi Sect!
...
Su Chen had returned to the Xiao family villa.
Three days later
Su Chen received news from his biological father in this life.
The refined and cultured middle-aged man before him was Su Chen's biological father in this life, Xiao Hongyuan.
"Son, you must help your old man this time!"
"This is your grandfather's lifelong wish!"
The middle-aged man disregarded his image, almost kneeling on the ground.
Everyone assumed that Xiao Chen's birth into the Xiao Group was a privileged destiny.
But the middle-aged man knew it was all an illusion. The Xiao Group's success today wasn't due to his own abilities... well... while that played a part, it was mostly because he had a good son!
Since birth, while others were still playing in the mud, his child had already begun contemplating the changes of the heavens, earth, sun, moon, and stars, the philosophy of all things, and even created a legendary cultivation method that could be practiced in the real world. This was nothing short of a miracle, comparable to someone who knew nothing achieving enlightenment in a single moment, creating all the formulas of advanced mathematics from scratch.
Even the Xiao Group's current success was largely due to a prescription his son casually modified when he was ten, which propelled the Xiao Group to its current zenith.
If this person weren't his son, and it wasn't appropriate for a father to kowtow to his son, he would have wanted to kowtow to his son instead.
What genius, what prodigy, what number one in the Star Alliance—in front of his child, they were no different from a three-year-old. If Xiao Chen hadn't been unwilling to flaunt his achievements, the history of the alliance would have been overturned!
Looking at his pleading father, Su Chen felt quite helpless.
The Xiao Group was founded single-handedly by his father.
His father was a self-made man who rose from humble beginnings.
However… Su Chen's grandfather, Xiao Wen, was of extraordinary lineage. He belonged to the Xiao family, a powerful force within the Star Alliance, a behemoth capable of easily crushing Tiancheng Star. Unfortunately, Xiao Wen had committed a grave error, leading to his expulsion from the Xiao family, the stripping of his cultivation, and exile to Tiancheng Star, where he ultimately died in depression.
Before his death, as Su Chen's father, Xiao Hongyuan, recounted, his grandfather, Xiao Wen, held Xiao Hongyuan's hand, tears welling in his eyes, and instructed him: "Hongyuan, I have no other wish in this life… only to be reinstated in the Xiao family genealogy, so that my lineage will not be broken, and I can be worthy of our ancestors."
Xiao Hongyuan tearfully agreed.
Before Su Chen awakened his memories, he further improved the Xiao Group's medicinal formula, leading to the launch of a new product.
The value of this new product came to the attention of a prominent figure within the Xiao family, who sought to collaborate with the Xiao Group.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hongyuan saw an opportunity and immediately expressed Xiao Wen's dying wish:
To reopen the family genealogy and return to their roots.
However... the person Xiao Wen had offended held a high position of power within the Xiao family of the Alliance. That person was in a difficult position, stating bluntly that the current prescription wasn't enough... more money was needed.
Thus, this scene unfolded.
Rewriting a prescription was a piece of cake for Su Chen. His mind was filled with countless King-level, Emperor-level, and even so-called Emperor-level prescriptions, enough to fill an entire universe.
Seeing his father's pleading, Su Chen finally granted his request and casually wrote down a prescription for a supreme-grade medicine.
The value of this medicine would make it easy for this branch to return to the Xiao family.
Xiao Hongyuan was overjoyed.
He hurriedly left with the prescription.
