What the hell!

A supernatural power user has emerged from the Chen Family Gate, this is huge news!

Buddies, hurry up and drop a wave of 666s, curry favor with the newly awakened B-grade supernatural power user bigwig, lest you accidentally get yourself beaten up.

"Right, bro!"

Chen Shan turned back with a smile that was anything but kind.

Chen Fei could only shake his head helplessly. Little Shanzi was like a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse, and he had thought it was Chen Meng who leaked the news, only to find out that the other party had blindly guessed it and, astonishingly, hit the nail on the head.

He didn't bother to explain.

Wait, no, that's wrong, it's a backhanded compliment!

Chen Fei thought of another possibility, and that made sense.

This profligate son was actually getting smart, starting to be cunning.

Indeed, the offspring of wealthy families were never simple. Otherwise, what right did they have to inherit the family business?

Chen Shan always got beaten up in front of his brothers Chen Shi and Chen Fei, not because he was dumb or stupid, but because he deserved it.

Damn it, I'll find time later to give this kid a good beating.

Chen Meng, who was manning the food cart, saw that the fight wouldn't start, hurriedly spoke up, "Hey, are you going to eat or not? The food's getting cold!"

"Yeah, we're going to eat! I'm starving!"

Chen You, the only son of the Third Uncle's family, quickly rushed to the food cart, eager to open the containers on top.

The main course was a big pot of rice and a pan of stir-fried noodles, along with seven or eight different dishes of meat and vegetables, plus a soup—enough to fill the stomachs of the five brothers.

"Hehe, you guys eat. We're going to look around inside,"

Li Xingxing gave up on targeting Chen Shan and walked through the gate of the mansion. As he passed by Chen Fei, he suddenly smiled and said, "A B-level supernatural power user, impressive indeed!"

In saying so, he even gave a thumbs up.

The asshole was colluding with Chen Shan, and they had to set up Chen Fei with the persona of a "B-grade supernatural power user."

Why not A-grade? Because A-grade individuals were well-known; during major showdowns among sovereign players, an A-grade supernatural power user could sometimes be the deciding factor. Thus, as soon as a new A-grade supernatural power user appeared, they would immediately be considered a foundation of sovereignty and added to the list of strategic-level talents.

The Blue Star United Defense Committee had organized a secret reconnaissance operation in the Xingdu Kush Mountain Area and had paid a significant price to enlist an A-grade supernatural power user.

Of course, A-grade Space Series Ability Users were even rarer than Space System Mage Gods, but Ability Users of other series were no less difficult to recruit.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Before an S-grade supernatural power user took action, an A-grade user was the uncrowned king.

So even if Little Shanzi had the guts to make such a claim, there had to be someone gullible enough to believe it.

The C-grade supernatural power users were relatively more numerous, with an awakening chance of about one in 660,000. With the local population base, C-grade supernatural power users truly weren't much to speak of.

Inside the National Defense Star Aerospace Company, there were quite a few C-grade supernatural power users, serving in different positions.

B-grade supernatural power users, lying between the C-grade and A-grade, were just a quarter as numerous as C-grade, forming an important component of the force below the strategic level and receiving attention wherever they were.

Chen Shan's unilateral declaration that Chen Fei was a B-grade supernatural power user was like putting him on the roasting spit.

The stupid kid!

Chen Fei looked at this dumb kid and the group of 'fair-weather friends' who were about to tear into each other moments ago walking into the manor with the eyes one would give a fool.

Li Yuanji from the group of friends took an extra glance at Chen Fei, smiled and nodded, then followed the rest in.

Chen You from the Third Uncle's family was a good kid. He patted Chen Fei on the shoulder and said, "Don't mind them, Brother Chen Fei!"

He could tell that Little Shanzi had no good intentions from the start.

"It's nothing!"

Chen Fei shook his head.

Chen Guang from the Second Uncle's family frowned as he watched this group of dandies leave, saying, "How could the eldest uncle allow Little Shan to hang out with these guys? They'll lead him astray sooner or later."

Those from the Chen Family Gate who were in politics disdained those who flaunted their family status and considered themselves above others; you should always maintain a sense of humility to avoid getting carried away and forgetting how much you can actually handle.

Considerate little sister Chen Meng had served the brothers their meals and called out warmly, "Brothers, let's eat!"

At three in the morning, Chen Fei and Chen Shi were woken up by the alarm set on their smartphones.

Since the Chen Family Gate was marrying off a daughter, not receiving a son-in-law, the groom had to pick up the bride early in the morning. As relatives on the bride's side, the Chen family's men also had to get ready early.

On the groom's side, it was already chaos, with phones ringing nonstop.

"Where's Little Shanzi? What? He's still not up? Hurry, drag him out of bed, how can a brother be absent when his elder sister is getting married?"

"Chen Fei, Chen Fei, it's up to you for the fireworks later!"

"Chen Guang, you're in charge of leading the way for the groom."

"Chen Shi..."

Having been through this several times, the men of the Chen Family had their roles well-divided and were busy yet orderly at this moment.

The bride was in a different place, not far from Fengzhi Manor, and along the way, people were needed. Luckily, the Chen Family had many brothers; otherwise, they would really be too busy to manage.

It wasn't just Chen Shi and Chen Fei and their brothers, but also the husbands of the three daughters from their eldest uncle who had married off, and with the help of the Chen Family's extended relatives, there was no shortage of hands.

"Here they come, here they come, the bride and groom are arriving!"

The red sun had just erupted from the horizon, and the procession with the eighteen palanquins advanced to the beat of gongs and drums, following a red carpet that led all the way into Fengzhi Manor. The trees lining the streets were festooned with lights and decorations, and the sound of firecrackers did not stop for a moment, totaling billions of bangs.

Eighty-one female relatives of the bride asked for red packets, with all the aunts and great-aunts joining in. The groom's groomsmen had to pull out all the stops, speaking kind words and stuffing red packets to pass through smoothly.

Each red packet contained a thousand Star Yuan, and after passing through these eighty-one challenges, a million Star Yuan had been given away just like that.

Leading the way were the musicians and standard-bearers, with the groom riding a purebred Ahalteke with snow-white coat in the middle of the procession, flanked by eighteen palanquins, followed by a thousand dowry palanquins adorned with big red silks, carried two by two, brimming with festive joy.

The bride's family provided a manor in the suburbs of Capital City as part of her dowry, and the groom's side was generous, with the betrothal gifts alone costing hundreds of millions of Star Yuan. Both sides put together, they turned this wedding into a lively and joyous event.

Crack!, crackling red firecracker debris covered the ground.

The extravagant procession that extended for miles wasn't just about the red lanterns and various decorations such as "Double Happiness" characters and red silks hanging from the trees and streetlights; the groom's betrothal gifts and bride's dowry alone stretched out for miles, without even a hint of exaggeration in the actual distance.

The wedding party made its way leisurely, with swarms of private media drones buzzing through the sky, at least a thousand strong.

The air was filled with their humming, and occasional collisions occurred, though they didn't dare get too close to the procession for fear of triggering the air defense system's safety mechanisms and being directly shot down by laser beams, content to watch from afar through long-focus lenses.

After the procession entered the manor, the groom Tang Guangzhong and the bride Chen Meizhi changed into a new set of clothes and stood at the manor entrance, personally welcoming guests from all directions.

Inside the manor, a crier loudly announced the identity of the guests and the gifts they presented.

"Chairman Li of Tianjiu Finance is sending a gift of a white jade Guanyin statue."

"Ying Yue He Group is sending a gift of a twelve-colored diamond necklace."

"Louis Industrial Company is sending a gift of one 3D printing machine."

"Donglin Industrial Group is sending a gift of a 300 square meter commercial property on West Straight Street in Capital City."

"Dragoon Mdynamics Industry is sending a gift of one Class A motorhome."

"Henghai Tactical Weapons Group is sending a gift of one Schumann Wave Therapy Pod."

"Xi Fei Industrial Group is sending a gift of one all-terrain tactical vehicle."

Whether it was businesses with transactions with National Defense Star Aerospace Company or those familiar with the Chen Family, some heads of households came personally, while others sent representatives with gifts. The value of the gifts varied, but each was distinct and notable.

In contrast, the Chen Family's own members kept the congratulatory red packets uniformly at 200 Star Yuan, not even one Star Yuan more.

The eldest uncle Chen Haiqing had been thoughtful; no matter whether the relatives were wealthy or not, they certainly weren't as wealthy as he was. The red packets were given symbolically, the most important thing being their presence and intention; nothing else mattered.

Outside the manor gates, a dazzling silver light suddenly brightened, and a silver beam of light shot into the sky.

The next second, the silver light dissipated, revealing the figure of a man and an elegant Giant Dragon covered in silver scales before everyone's eyes.

The man who was greeting guests and calling out names suddenly became overly excited, shouting at the top of his lungs, "The Lin Family, Mr. Lin Mo has arrived."

The man appearing alongside the Silver Dragon turned around and patted the dragon's lowered head, saying, "Alright, You, this is far enough, you can go back now!"

"Okay, I'll wait for your call!"

The Silver Dragon nodded, and with another silver column of light shooting into the sky, the dragon, engulfed by the silver light, vanished in the blink of an eye.

You?

It wasn't just the guest annunciator; many people caught the name clearly.

Some even got goosebumps and couldn't help but widen their eyes; there was only one dragon called "You" in the Dragon Race.

That was the Space Silver Dragon, You, the governing officer of the Dragon Clan!

If the current Dragon King from the Metallic Dragons had his way, the whole Dragon Race might well be doomed.

Sky Dragon City, in danger! Waiting online, it's urgent...

Thus, the real authority within the Dragon Race was the Space Silver Dragon, You, wisely put in charge (while taking the opportunity to be lazy) by the Dragon King (dodging responsibility).
