I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes

He remembered that he himself had killed only a little over thirty people.

Driver Xiao Liu continued, “All over one piece of inheritance, everyone went mad, scheming and backstabbing, turning friends into foes… I really can’t understand it. Before this inheritance issue came up, there weren’t such problems. It goes to show that wealth stirs the heart, nobody’s content, everyone thinks they’re destined to be someone important…”

Xiao Liu shook his head.

Seeing Pei Jinye fall silent, he quickly let out a dry laugh, “Making Mr. Pei laugh.”

“No, what you said is very good, very wise,” Pei Jinye nodded slowly, “But it’s just an inheritance, not even knowing if it suits them, and yet they rush in headlong.”

“Exactly, who knows, maybe there are people acting in the shadows, deliberately stirring up trouble, possibly with ulterior motives,” Xiao Liu said, his voice tinged with mystery.

As he drove around a corner, he glanced at Pei Jinye, “This time, someone from Nagano came looking for trouble, heard it was people from the Gongsun Family, apparently they had somebody get chopped at Mist Mountain…”

“…”

As if Pei Jinye hadn’t heard, “Brother Sun, are you familiar with the Gongsun Family?”

“Can’t say I’m familiar.” Xiao Sun blushed slightly upon being called Brother Sun by Pei Jinye, looking pleasantly surprised, he smiled and said, “I only heard bits and pieces when following some leaders before. The Gongsun Family used to be a pedigreed clan, but alas, they picked the wrong side several times over the last eight hundred years, and their resources have nearly run dry… The only Fifth Rank in the family probably won’t live much longer.”

Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow, “The Gongsun Family still has a Fifth Rank powerhouse?”

He reflected on the strength classifications given by his martial sister.

Fifth Rank corresponded to above the Dharma Body Realm of a martial artist. In a sense, they were among the powerhouses of the Upper Third Realms.

“Yes, strictly speaking, the Gongsun Family once had a Ninth Rank powerhouse. What a pity… already long gone. Over the past eight hundred years, the Gongsun Family hasn’t produced any real powerhouses. After one hit after another, now only the old master is holding on,” Xiao Sun said with a sigh, “An era of a great clan coming to an end is truly lamentable… However, it’s fitting that the Gongsun Family’s end has come.”

Pei Jinye looked up, “Why do you say that?”

Speaking softly, Xiao Sun said, “Because the entire clan has been propped up by that old master. The younger generation beneath him are simply not strong enough, nothing but dead weight… I’ve heard that the congressman himself has quite a few complaints about the many actions of the Gongsun Family.”

Pei Jinye seemed thoughtful.

Xiao Sun brought the car to a stop, “Here we are, Mr. Pei.”

He spoke in a low voice as a reminder, “This time, the people from the Gongsun Family went too far, injuring someone and then attempting a cover-up, but they were stopped by the village chief and his people. You must be careful, and if anything feels off, immediately give me the signal, and I will call for backup.”

He knew it was Group Leader Lin Xiawei’s intention to send Pei Jinye alone.

Nevertheless, with the people from the Gongsun Family not being pushovers, he was actually quite worried.

Pei Jinye nodded, stepping out of the car with the Autumn Frost Sword in hand.

…

“An apology! An apology is a must!”

The villagers of Jiuliang Village had surrounded a young man and woman.

The young man tried to leave, but was blocked, growing impatient as he attempted to push past an elder in front of him.

His hand hadn’t even touched the old man when it was aggressively blocked by a few younger villagers.

Gongsun Liang was irritated, “I’ve said before, he brought it upon himself, if you’re not skilled enough, you shouldn’t embarrass yourself by stepping out.”

Someone in the crowd retorted angrily, “It was you who launched a sneak attack on Brother Nine first. If it weren’t for the timely intervention of Third Master, you would’ve beaten Brother Nine to death.”

Impatience creased Gongsun Liang’s brow.

Just then, Pei Jinye arrived. After driver Xiao Liu briefly introduced his identity to the village chief, the villagers, hearing that Pei Jinye came from the Investigation Team, immediately started recounting Gongsun Liang’s actions in a clamor of voices.

Upon hearing the words “Investigation Team,” Gongsun Liang immediately turned his attention to Pei Jinye, “You’re with the Investigation Team? Perfect, hurry up and get us out of here. What a dump, full of troublemakers!”

The words instantly enraged the villagers of Jiuliang Village.

“What did you say!”

“Say that again, I dare you!”

Unapologetic, Gongsun Liang’s sword vibrated sharply in his hand, its humming cutting off any further comments from the crowd.

Seeing he’d quelled the scene,

he snorted arrogantly, glancing at Pei Jinye, “Hurry and take me away.”

Upon hearing this, Pei Jinye turned to him, “I think you misunderstood something.”

Gongsun Liang looked at him.

Pei Jinye spoke earnestly, “Apologize, or I’ll force you to. Make your choice.”

Gongsun Liang couldn’t help but let out an ironic laugh of anger.

The young woman beside him frowned and said, “Is this how the Da Peng City Investigation Team conducts its business, with no principles at all?”

Pei Jinye turned to her, “Don’t be hasty, you too. There’s a saying, ‘When friends come from afar, even if afar, they must be subdued.’ No matter who you are, when you come to someone else’s territory, you have to follow the local rules…”

With that, he looked to the village chief, “Uncle, am I right?”

The village chief slapped his thigh, “Absolutely correct!”

The crowd also caught on, echoing in agreement, “Right, apologize!”

Gongsun Liang’s face filled with shocked anger as he glared at Pei Jinye, articulating each word, “Are you sure this is how you want to play it?”

The young woman suddenly spoke up, “Ah Liang, forget his status, let’s handle this by the rules of the martial world. Subdue him.”

Gongsun Liang nodded, scoffing at Pei Jinye, “Since you’re talking big, let me see what you’re really made of.”

Driver Xiao Sun watched Pei Jinye nervously.

Pei Jinye’s expression remained calm throughout.

The village chief waved his hand, and the crowd instinctively dispersed.

Before the crowd could retreat two steps, Gongsun Liang suddenly made a move.

Even the driver, Little Sun’s expression changed at this moment.

This guy actually launched a sneak attack!

Is he even human!!!

However, as soon as Gongsun Liang’s sword began to leave the scabbard by half an inch, Pei Jinye promptly pressed it back down with his scabbard, causing Gongsun Liang’s complexion to shift…

He never anticipated that the other party’s speed could be so fast.

And furthermore—

Damn it, how is this guy so strong!

Gongsun Liang’s cheeks flushed red with a mix of embarrassment and anger, yet more than anything, he was gathering all his strength for a counterattack.

Suddenly, one of the members of the Investigation Team across from them spoke up, “Is this the kind of trash the Gongsun family sends out to Jianghu? Didn’t you eat?”

“You!” Gongsun Liang raged.

But the next moment, he was smacked away by a sword, flying backward over ten meters.

The onlookers’ eyelids couldn’t help but twitch.

Pei Jinye shifted his gaze to the young woman beside him, whose complexion had already turned terrifyingly dark.

Pei Jinye calmly said, “Since you wanted to do things the Jianghu way, I’ll accommodate you. I’ll only use one sword strike. If you can defend against it, I’ll spare your life.”

As soon as the words fell.

The Autumn Frost Sword had not even drawn from its scabbard, yet it had already made its strike.

The young woman snorted coldly and pushed forward with her hands, immediately freezing the void and rapidly spreading the frost.

Seeing this, everyone’s complexion drastically changed, and they hastily retreated further back.

The scabbard met the young woman right in front of her, the sound of thunder and wind reverberated in her ears, and before she could take another action, she too was sent flying backward, her injuries even more severe than those of Gongsun Liang.

At this moment, all was silent.

Even the villagers of Jiuliang Village stood, mouths agape and eyes wide, unable to believe what had just transpired.

The outsider who had severely injured the youth of their village with just three strikes had been defeated so easily, so utterly.

It wasn’t just them.

Even Gongsun Liang was stunned; his cousin, who was considered one of the finest of the younger generation in their family, had lost so miserably.

Wasn’t Da Peng City supposed to be just a small place?

How could this place be filled with so many crouching tigers and hidden dragons?

Before Gongsun Liang could figure it out, a shadow blocked all his vision. When he managed to see the person clearly, his face trembled.

Pei Jinye, holding his cell phone, looked down and said calmly, “Apologize where you must, compensate where you should. I don’t care if the Gongsun family came here seeking death, just ensure you follow the rules that must be followed. A friendly reminder, for you young masters and missies who are ignorant of the world beyond your wells, coming to stick your nose in Jianghu affairs is just courting death.”

Pei Jinye turned to face the village chief of Jiuliang Village, “Uncle, you discuss the compensation with them. If these two dare to act deceitfully, come find me. The monk may run but the temple can’t hide; I know which family he belongs to. If they dare to deny the debt, just send the video to their families, and let’s see who ends up embarrassed.”

The village chief was overwhelmed with gratitude.

As Pei Jinye passed by the Gongsun siblings, he said, “You heard what I said, right? Get moving.”

He gave Gongsun Liang a kick.

Gongsun Liang’s face was full of ire, but he dared not speak out in anger. He turned to the young woman who, with an emotionless face, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and bluntly said, “Pay them.”

Just as Pei Jinye was about to leave, the young woman’s voice came from behind him, “Do you dare to tell me your name?”

“What, looking for trouble?” Pei Jinye stopped and turned his head to look back, his fingers caressing the sword hilt.

The young woman appeared somewhat in awe of the sword in his hand and said, with false bravado, “Don’t try to intimidate me. You’re stronger than the two of us, I’ll give you that, but my brother will arrive soon. If you have the guts, then let’s settle this the Jianghu way. He’ll come seeking retribution for us.”

Pei Jinye looked at her and said succinctly, “If there’s going to be a fight, then let’s not talk about life and death.”

The young woman’s face slightly changed color.

Gongsun Liang hurriedly held her back, but before he could say anything, he heard his cousin, grinding her teeth, utter word by word, “Fine, life and death it is. Who’s afraid of whom!”

“When the person arrives, head straight to the Investigation Team’s Base, someone will guide you there.”

Pei Jinye left, carrying the Autumn Frost Sword.

Little Liu hurried after him.

Once inside the car, Liu looked worried, “It’s probably him that’s coming.”

“Oh, you know?” Pei Jinye got in the car and buckled his seatbelt as he asked casually.

Liu said anxiously, “Gongsun Qianfeng, a distinguished graduate of Dragon City martial arts university. I’ve heard he was taken away by the Judgement Place right after graduation. By strength classification, he has the standard of an Extraordinary Third Rank… Such a genius isn’t easy to deal with. Why don’t you let the team leader step in?”

“No need to trouble her with such a trifling matter,” Pei Jinye yawned and looked back, “I’m hungry. What about you?”

Liu opened his mouth but said nothing.

This guy really does things his own way.

But then again…

It’s not as if there’s no chance of winning, right?

He sneakily sent a message to Group Leader Lin Xiawei, informing her of the situation.

To his surprise, Lin Xiawei didn’t take it seriously and replied concisely:
