Rebirth of the Star God Agent

Qi Ji's eyes flickered. He chuckled to himself, quickened his pace, and walked beside Zhai Anle. "I wanted you to relax this afternoon, so I didn't have time to ask you, was the test difficult? How confident are you?"

Zhai Anle shook his head. "It's not difficult, but it will take some time. The science here is quite different from ours. I need to study for a while."

Qi Ji asked him, "Do you need me to help you with your studies?"

Zhai Anle continued to shake his head, "No, I can still handle it. If I really can't handle it, I will definitely ask you."

He glanced at Qi Ji and said, "I see you've memorized all the moves from last night. I'll teach you the rest tonight. Take your time, learn the whole set, and master it thoroughly."

Qi Ji hummed and asked Zhai Anle, "What do you think of Qi Ye?"

"Qi Ye?" Zhai Anle raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean?"

Qi Ji lowered his eyes and looked at him: "You pass on the Qi family's skills to me, and I will learn from you. After that, you have to pass it on to the people in the family, so that the overall strength of the Qi family can be improved. In fact, I am not very good at teaching others."

Zhai Anle thought for a moment, "Anyway, we have to pick out an outstanding child from the Qi family to inherit the Qi family's legacy. If you're optimistic about Qi Ye, he can do it. I'm sure I don't know the Qi family as thoroughly as you do. Although it's the Qi family's legacy, we all remember what Dean He said this morning. The traitor hasn't been found yet, so the legacy can't be given to someone you don't trust. So, once you've made your choice, pick a time and bring the elders you think are suitable to your home. We'll take a look together and teach them the appropriate techniques. As for the candidates for the younger generations, you can choose, and I'll select the appropriate techniques."

"Okay." Qi Ji smiled and started the aircraft.

The two went home, washed and changed clothes, and Qi Ji continued to learn new moves in the gym.

At the end, Zhai Anle stopped Qi Ji. "Do you want to build a separate training room? I don't think it's appropriate to teach the Qi family's legacy in the gym so openly."

Qi Ji nodded immediately. "What kind of facilities do you need? How big a site do you need? Should we build it here, or should we choose another location?"

Zhai Anle thought for a moment and replied, "Let's renovate the basement first and strengthen the security system. This will be the place where I teach you, and Qi Ye can study here for the time being. After that, we must study somewhere else. If the Qi family's children come to your place every day, people outside will notice something is wrong."

Qi Ji nodded and agreed.

Zhai Anle waved his hand and said, "Separate the security system of the training ground. I asked Doudou to build a new security system. Doudou's technology far exceeds the current federal technology. It was made by Mr. Qi. Okay, let's go back and prepare to rest."

Qi Ji returned to his room, showered, and changed into pajamas. He turned on his computer and made a video call to his second uncle.

"Qi Ji?" A middle-aged man appeared on the screen. Qi Ji's appearance was about 50% similar to Qi Ji's, but the man's features were a bit more rugged. It was Qi Ji's second uncle, Qi Xiaoyuan.

"Second Uncle," Qi Ji sat up straighter, "I registered Zhai Anle's identity under your name. He is now your adopted orphan. Also, I told Anle about Qi Ye today."

"What did he say?" Second Uncle asked anxiously on the screen.

Qi Ji straightened his dark hair and said, "He said that he doesn't know the Qi family well yet, and I can choose people more reliably than him."

Second Uncle seemed relieved. Selecting outstanding descendants to inherit the ancestral heritage was extremely important. He was also afraid that Zhai Anle would choose an unsuitable person without knowing the Qi family well.

Qi Ji saw his uncle relax, but his expression turned serious. "Uncle, don't be too happy. There's something else I need to tell you, and it's not a good thing."

"What's the matter?" Hearing that it was not a good thing, the second uncle just breathed a sigh of relief, but then brought it up again.

"There is a traitor among the senior management of the STAB intelligent mecha core project team." Qi Ji carefully repeated his conversation with Dean He in the morning to Qi Xiaoyuan.

Qi Xiaoyuan's expression turned grim. "I'll arrange for someone to check it out right now. I have to go back to the military headquarters tomorrow morning. If nothing comes out the first time, I'll have the Qi family's special team at the military headquarters investigate!"

Qi Xiaoyuan was furious, "I don't believe we can't find the traitor!"

Qi Ji lowered his eyes and thought for a moment before deciding to share part of the plan he, Zhai Anle, and Dean He had planned. "Second Uncle, Dean He, Anle, and I have come up with a preliminary plan to find the traitor. The premise is that we can't alert them. Second Uncle, please cooperate. We'll let you know once we've finalized the details and steps in the next few days, okay?"

Qi Xiaoyuan was a little surprised, "You guys figured out a plan so quickly?"

Qi Ji suddenly smiled. "An Le's idea, to be honest, is a bit mean. But, the effect should be very good."

Qi Xiaoyuan frowned as he looked at Qi Ji's slightly relaxed expression, feeling somewhat suspicious. He asked, "How long will your plan take? I'm afraid they'll leak more STAB information before we take action."

Qi Ji's smile didn't fade. He shook his head and said, "An Le has thought about this. This morning, he used the super-advanced system made by his ancestors to monitor the systems of the research institute and the company. All the information that is leaked will be checked by that system, and any problematic information will be changed."

Qi Xiaoyuan became interested. He leaned forward and asked, "Can we take over that super-advanced system?"

Qi Ji was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. "First, that system is bound to Anle's soul and cannot be untied. Second, Anle was entrusted by our ancestors to help us, the descendants of the Qi family. To put it nicely, it's the blessing of our ancestors. In reality, it's Anle who is helping our entire family alone. The super-advanced system was also given to Anle by our ancestors to facilitate his actions. Uncle, your thinking is flawed."

Qi Xiaoyuan was a bit embarrassed by his nephew's lecture. He quickly explained, "I just wanted to see if the system could be replicated. If it could be replicated, the strength of our Qi family..."

Qi Xiaoyuan was interrupted by Qi Ji before he could finish his words. He looked a little angry and asked, "Uncle, do you think that if the Qi family mastered the super-advanced system, they wouldn't have to ask An Le for help?"

"Second uncle, have you ever thought that if we only rely on a super advanced system to protect the entire Qi family, why would our ancestors need to find an extra middleman?" Qi Ji sighed.

"Second uncle, you underestimated Anle's peculiarity, or, you underestimated the ancestors who sought Anle's help?" Qi Ji looked sternly at Qi Xiaoyuan, who had an embarrassed expression on the light screen.

"What the ancestors gave to Anle naturally belongs to Anle. Anle used the gifts from the ancestors to fulfill the ancestors' instructions and to help our Qi family. If we fight for Anle's things, wouldn't it be a bit too much? You have said these words to me now. I hope that my second uncle will not mention it again in the future, whether to me or to the people in the clan. These principles are very simple, even I can see them clearly, how can you be confused, my second uncle." Qi Ji softened his tone and continued to persuade.

"Second uncle, let me remind you. Isn't the inherited martial arts left to us by our ancestors more useful than a super-advanced system? With the inherited martial arts, we can create a better future for ourselves, instead of relying on a super-advanced system to protect the Qi family forever. What's more, the inheritance is in Anle's hands. If he knew about your thoughts, second uncle, you would be the sinner of the Qi family." Qi Ji looked seriously at Qi Xiaoyuan, who was already dejected and dejected.

"Second uncle, think about it carefully and don't regret it after doing something wrong. Although Anle looks young, he was chosen by our ancestors from thousands of worlds and is the most suitable guardian of the Qi family." Qi Ji reminded Qi Xiaoyuan in a light tone.

"Alas." Qi Xiaoyuan covered his face with his hands and sighed, "I understand."

"I've been in the military for too long these years and I'm used to the tough approach in the army." Qi Xiaoyuan rubbed his face and put down his hands.

"This matter has passed, so don't let Anle know about it. Second uncle knows he was wrong, and it was my fault for not thinking it through." Qi Xiaoyuan's face showed shame and a little fear.

Qi Ji nodded and said, "I won't tell Anle. I hope Second Uncle can think more about Anle in the future. He is too important. Besides, Second Uncle, you really underestimate Anle."

Qi Xiaoyuan closed his eyes and slowly expressed his worries.

Qi Xiaoyuan said, "Aji, ever since big brother got into trouble, we've forced you into the position of head of the family. We've watched you dedicate yourself to the family every day. The five of us remaining siblings feel so sorry for big brother. He's gone, and we didn't take good care of his children. We've also pushed the entire family's responsibility onto you, a kid who just graduated from school. We feel so sorry for big brother, and we feel so sorry for you."

Qi Xiaoyuan sighed, "In the past few years, the Qi family has been plagued by problems. As your elders, we have put all the pressure on you. As your elder, Second Uncle also wants to do something. But..."

Qi Xiaoyuan's eyes were red. "I'm sorry, Aji. Second uncle, second uncle... I will cooperate well in the future and not think about those messy things anymore."

Qi Ji's nose felt a little sore, but he smiled and comforted Qi Xiaoyuan: "Second uncle, there's no need to talk about this among family members."

He knew the elders in his family weren't trying to shirk their responsibilities; it was just that each of them had obvious weaknesses. It wasn't that they didn't want to protect him; it was simply that the Qi family's position within the Federation had been awkward over the years, and they had been deliberately suppressed by the head of the Federation. The elders wouldn't feel any easier just because he took on the responsibility of head of the family.

It's safe to say the entire Qi family is at the center of this storm, with every key member surrounded by traps and dangers. While they strive to revive the family, they're truly powerless. Under these challenging circumstances, the family's decline has been significantly slowed. They've tried their best. Second Uncle's current thoughts are simply a result of excessive concern, a preoccupation with the family's plight, and a desperate desire to find any means to protect it. However, his thinking is overly simplistic, even superficial.

Qi Ji took a deep breath and relieved the heaviness in his heart.

"Uncle, go to bed early. I will be renovating the basement tomorrow. If you have time, come over and learn some physical skills from Anle. He is teaching me step by step now. I will also notify the uncles and aunts. If you are interested, you can come over in the evening. He needs to see you before he can choose the right skills for you. When Anle starts school, you can only learn from him online." Qi Ji felt better. "He is really amazing, so strong."

Qi Xiaoyuan smiled with red eyes. As a soldier, he admired the use of force. He said, "I'm definitely interested. They should also learn it. You rest. I'll notify them for you later."

Qi Ji smiled and said good night to Qi Xiaoyuan, then hung up the call.

Qi Ji opened his computer and pulled out a stack of pictures. He had activated the burst function when Zhai Anle fired his gun for the second time. Each picture showed Zhai Anle's profile as he fired with a calm expression, his gun raised.

The facial features softened by the system were even more beautiful when viewed from the side. He stretched out his finger and ran it over the pictures one by one, examining them very carefully and seriously.

After scrolling through more than ten snapshots, he stopped at the last one.

Zhai Anle turned slightly towards him, flashing him a bright smile. He was clearly delighted. He could understand; he'd felt the same way the first time he'd held a gun. Most men loved guns.

Qi Ji's fingertips lightly brushed across the young man's bright face on the screen. Qi Ji smiled and said, "Good night, Anle."

He turned off the light screen and closed his eyes.
