”According to authoritative experts, in ten years someone will complete the fourth evolution for the first time and advance into Fifth God’s Sanctuary...”
”...”
Han Sen had just teleported from the Steel Armor Shelter and the news was playing on a virtual screen.
”Evolver, surpasser and demigod. With the black crystal, I will be able to do all that, and go even farther.” Han Sen shook his fist, stepped away from the teleport station, and took the maglev train home.
Before he went into the yard, Han Sen heard a harsh female voice.
”Luo Sulan, do you want to take the old house of the Hans? This house was our parents’, and my two elder brothers and I each own a part. Now my eldest brother has passed. We won’t bully you, since you are a widow, and will leave you his share. But if you want to take everything, we will never agree. ”
”That’s right!” The voice of a middle-aged man chimed in. ”The old house has always been the inheritance of our parents. All of us have rights to it, and you can’t keep it for yourselves. Your family has lived here for more than 20 years, so you have already taken advantage of us in a big way. It is time to divide the inheritance.”
”My brother has said it,” a soft-pitched male voice continued. ”You lived in the old house for more than 20 years. We will not collect the rent, but this old house is our inheritance and has to be divided.”
A young woman’s voice could be heard saying, ”We have an estimate from a lawyer, and this old house is now worth more than three million. We are three households, so we should get a million each. You can either give each of us a million and own this old house outright, or sell the house, and then we all split the money. We are okay with either option you choose.”
”Exactly, now that our eldest brother is gone, we won’t bully his widow and kids. You can give us money or sell the house, as you like,” the harsh first voice began again.
”Brother and sister, there is no need to force me. You know our situation. We don’t have two million,” a woman said sadly.
”Then put the house up for sale,” the harsh woman immediately said.
