Capital City, the Holy Temple.
Within the grand and magnificent hall.
The figure resembling "Emperor Qin Shi Huang," Chen Yu sat quietly on the throne, watching the alliance’s chief supervisor eagerly introduce the others below.
"Great Emperor, this is Mr. Wang **, the one in charge of handling affairs with all the tribes, a B+ expert."
"May the great Great Emperor live for all eternity," the elder surnamed Wang bowed in excitement.
"The Wangs," Chen Yu nodded with a dignified expression, "you must be Wang Bingbing’s descendant. I held your great-great-great-grandfather when he was a child."
"Really?! This... this is an honor for our Wang Family!" the elder surnamed Wang was ecstatic.
"Great Emperor, this one here is Mr. Zhang **, who oversees the Transcendent realm’s inspection agency, a B-level expert."
"Long live the Great Emperor! May he live forever! Forever and ever!" the middle-aged man surnamed Zhang bowed in excitement.
"The Zhangs," Chen Yu nodded, "seeing your appearance, you must be Zhang Bingbing’s descendant. I held your great-great-grandfather when he was a child."
"This is an honor for our Zhang Family!" the man surnamed Zhang was overjoyed.
"Great Emperor," the chief supervisor licked his lips, pointing to another person beside him, "this one is the human race’s general, Cheng *! A B+ expert!"
"Long live Your Highness!" the elder named Cheng maintained his composure, neither haughty nor humble.
"A Cheng," Chen Yu smiled, "definitely a descendant of Cheng Bingbing. I held your great-great-grandmother when she was a child."
"This is the glory of my Cheng Family!" the elder named Cheng was beside himself with excitement...
It took fifteen minutes.
Having taken advantage of all the main leaders present, Chen Yu turned his attention to the group of people at the very end of the hall on both sides.
"Chief Supervisor."
"At your service! Your instructions, please."
"What about those at the back? Why don’t you... introduce them to me."
"Your Majesty, they are not currently responsible for any major duties," the chief supervisor bowed and said, "To save Your Majesty’s precious time for this great meeting, I just..."
"Nonsense," Chen Yu feigned anger with a bang on the dragon throne, "they are all pillars of our human race; how can we discriminate and rank them differently?"
"Your Majesty..." the chief supervisor was taken aback.
Compassion surged among the people at the end of the hall.
One of them, with tears in his eyes, stepped forward, "Your Majesty, I am..."
"Enough," Chen Yu waved his hand, "no need to waste time."
The people present: "..."
"Mainly introduce these two," Chen Yu raised both hands, pointing to two people in the corner at the end.
One was the much younger Li Family Head.
The other was a middle-aged man with long hair, resembling a "long-haired man."
"If I’m not mistaken, you belong to the Li Family?" Chen Yu asked the first one.
In an instant.
Everyone’s eyes in the hall turned toward the Li Family Head.

The Li himself was shocked as if struck by lightning, his eyes nearly popping out, "Your... Your Majesty, you know me?"
"I know more than just you." Standing up, Chen Yu looked up as if recalling the past, "I also know your ancestor."
"Such an honor it is!"
"Ah, it feels like a lifetime has passed," he said, walking around with his hands behind his back, as the top brass of the Transcendent realm watched on, "Thousands of years ago, the human race was oppressed by the Divine Spirit Tribe and Holy Spirit Clan, living in humiliation and barely surviving. I cultivated on my own and achieved greatness. When I emerged from seclusion, I happened to come across your ancestor, who was then a latrine cleaner for the foreign tribes, scavenging trash for food."
The Li Family Head: "..."
"I, seeing this, could not stand idly by and vowed to eradicate the Divine Spirit Tribe and exterminate the Holy Spirit Clan. And so I did. I freed all of mankind. And in fulfillment of my oath, I built your Li ancestors their very own latrine cleaning factory."
The Li Family Head: "..."
"Is that latrine cleaning factory still around?" asked Chen Yu.
"...It’s... it’s gone now."
"So, your Li Family is no longer in the latrine cleaning business?"
"Yes... that’s right..."
"The Li Family! You’ve lost your original aspiration," Chen Yu said with disappointment.
..." The Li Family Head’s face flushed red.
The family records had never mentioned anything about the Li Family starting out in latrine cleaning...
The others in the room exchanged curious looks.
"Come to see me alone after the meeting," Chen Yu said dissatisfiedly before turning to sit back on the throne.
"Yes, Your Majesty," the Li Family Head bowed deeply.
"I am like a father to your Li Family ancestor. What should you call me?" Chen Yu narrowed his eyes.
"Ancestor?"
"Forefather!"
"Forefather!!" the Li Family Head hastily corrected himself, yet was secretly thrilled.
"Where did His Majesty go?"
"Forefather Your Majesty!"
"Pleasing to the ear, say it again."
"Forefather Your Majesty!!!"
"Good."
Chen Yu then nodded with satisfaction amidst the "envy" of the many high-ranking officials in the hall and gestured grandly, "Don’t forget, come find me after the meeting."
"Yes! Forefather Your Majesty," the Li Family Head trembled with excitement.
"Your Majesty," the elder surnamed Wang couldn’t help but raise his hand and speak, "You just said, you had held my Wang Family’s great-great-grandfather... in that case, we Wangs are also your descendants! We too should rightly call you Forefather Your Majesty."
At those words, Chen Yu was momentarily lost before he nodded repeatedly, "My loyal minister, if you put it that way, you are not wrong."
"Forefather Your Majesty!" the elder surnamed Wang shouted.
"Aye," Chen Yu was moved.
"Doesn’t that make my Zhang Family also Your Majesty’s descendants? Forefather Your Majesty!!"
"There, there," Chen Yu made a comforting gesture, "such a good child."
"Forefather Your Majesty!"
"Forefather!"
"Me too! Forefather Your Majesty..."
