Chapter 37: The Perfect Person to Take Control of the Spaceship!

To confirm his concerns, the door opened, and a young man, who seemed to be just over twenty years old, slowly entered.

The young man’s expression was calm, as if he were taking a stroll in the park rather than meeting the most powerful people in the Canqiao Kingdom.

Behind him, a man followed, dressed in silver clothing.

This man walked respectfully and occasionally looked at the young man with extreme admiration.

"Yan Fang greets all the uncles."

As soon as the young man reached the front of the six seats, he gave a slight bow.

"Haha, Nephew Yan, no need to be so polite!" Han Suhang immediately laughed and gestured for him to rise.

"Thank you, Uncle Han!" Yan Fang replied calmly.

Then, his gaze turned to Mu Bianyan, and he smiled slightly.

Noticing Yan Fang’s gaze upon him, Mu Bianyan’s eyebrows couldn’t help but furrow, and a thought arose in his heart.

’Could he know that I was responsible for his father’s death?’

’But if he did, how could he be so calm while facing me? This doesn’t seem like a twenty-year-old...’

While Mu Bianyan was lost in thought, Yan Fang immediately explained his purpose.

"Uncles, now that the country is in this situation, I hope to be filial to my father and take on his legacy so that he can finally rest in peace."

"I hope you will help your nephew with this!"

Yan Fang bowed to the six seats present in the room, but a subtle and slightly eerie smile emerged behind his calm facade.

However, his words caused everyone to adopt somewhat artificial expressions.

Even Han Suhang remained silent for a moment, reflecting on what he should do.

What Yan Fang desired was nothing less than to take his father’s position and become the new third seat!

Realizing this, Mu Bianyan momentarily lost control and spoke hastily:

"Nephew Yan, although it has been a rule since ancient times that the seven seats of the organization are passed from father to son..."

"We are in an unprecedentedly turbulent period, and this is not the best time for you, who still lack experience, to assume the position."

"Why don’t you wait until the situation stabilizes, and then we can discuss this?"

Mu Bianyan’s words practically cut off any chance of Yan Fang assuming the position so soon.

After all, how could he allow Yan Fang to become the third seat?

This boy knew that his father was dead and still spoke so coldly that Mu Bianyan immediately thought he wanted revenge.

If that was the case, why would he give power to such a person?

At the same time, a strong murderous intent appeared in Mu Bianyan’s eyes as he looked at Yan Fang.

’Boy, you are very naive if you think you can face me like this.’

However, what frightened him was that Yan Fang’s expression didn’t change at all after hearing his words.

Not even a trace of panic appeared in his gaze.

In fact, he seemed to be smiling.

"Second Seat Mu, you are right in saying that I have no experience!"

"However, I was trained by my father to inherit this position even before I learned to walk."

"You are familiar with my father’s abilities, right?"

Yan Fang spoke immediately.

Although his words seemed arrogant, his expression was extremely respectful when mentioning his father.

This didn’t match at all with the coldness he showed when talking about his death.

Mu Bianyan was in a dilemma for a moment.

Yan Fang’s words really put him in a difficult position.

If he insisted on what he said earlier, it would be like stating that the third seat, who died just a few days ago, wasn’t able to prepare his son to take over the position.

And this would make the other five seats look bad.

But if he changed his mind, he would lose face by allowing a young man to make him back down.

’I really underestimated this boy!’ Mu Bianyan’s face darkened.

Noticing that the situation was getting bad, Han Suhang quickly intervened.

"Sobrinho Yan, nobody here doubts the abilities of the third seat. So, how about we make a test?"

"If you really learned everything he taught, you will pass without difficulty."

He owed a great favor to Yan Fang’s father, so at the very least, he would ensure that the boy lived well.

But he agreed with Mu Bianyan and would not support him for the position without knowing what he was capable of.

Of course, if Yan Fang really passed the test, Han Suhang would keep his word and naturally support him.

However, what nobody expected was that Mu Bianyan spoke right after.

"Great idea! By the way, I can personally design the test." Mu Bianyan spoke with a strange voice.

Then, he cast a glance at Yan Fang.

But what irritated him was that the young man didn’t seem to notice, keeping the same calm expression as always.

Since no one objected, Mu Bianyan contained his anger and continued.

"My test is very simple. Perhaps you don’t know, but a mysterious spaceship suddenly appeared in Huangye province."

"As long as you find a way to take control of it, I will not oppose you becoming the third seat!"

Upon hearing this test, everyone immediately frowned.

After all, this wasn’t exactly the issue they had been trying to resolve until now?

Even they hadn’t been able to find a solution, and now Mu Bianyan was using this as a test for Yan Fang?

Instantly, it became clear to everyone that he was trying to make things difficult for Yan Fang.

For this reason, they cast pitying looks at the young man.

He was unlucky to provoke Mu Bianyan of all people!

Noticing this trap, Huo Suhang became a little irritated and prepared to intervene.

He didn’t support the idea of Yan Fang assuming the position, as he considered him too young to handle the situation.

However, seeing Mu Bianyan deliberately making things difficult, he naturally felt dissatisfied.

After all, how could he face Yan Fang’s father in the afterlife, knowing that he allowed his son to be intimidated this way?

However, before he could intervene, Yan Fang, who had remained silent until then, finally opened his mouth and spoke calmly:

"Actually... I already knew about this spaceship. And it just so happens that I have the perfect person to take control of it without any problems!"
