Playboy young master? Are you kidding me? I'm not some playboy young master—take a good look at my identity!

I am the head of the family, the master of the largest clan in the Mingyu Dynasty, The Carter Family. If you insist on calling me a playboy, then address me as the playboy clan leader.

So what if I kill you? So what if I kill you in front of the imperial palace? This clan leader has several immunity jade tokens.

Watch as the wicked young master leads his clan as its head and rises to the peak.

A life of wickedness—unmatched!!

Chapter One: A Miraculous Encounter

"Absurd, utterly absurd! The dignified head of one of the five great clans of the Mingyu Dynasty actually got into a jealous quarrel at the academy, and even got knocked out over a woman, making us wait here for him for five hours—this is just too ridiculous." In the grand council hall of The Carter Family, the somewhat short, chubby, and balding Third Elder, Henry Carter, received the news and was so furious he couldn't sit still. He stood up and paced back and forth in the hall.

His gaze kept drifting to the high, central seat reserved for the clan head. The whole day was nearly over, night was falling, and that absurd clan head still hadn't shown up.

"Bang!" The Fourth Elder, Samuel Carter, whose face was as long as a horse's, glared angrily. "This is getting more and more outrageous. What does he think the elders' council day is? He should have come back yesterday to prepare, but instead he got into a fight at the academy. If word gets out, it will be a huge joke."

The two vented their anger, while at the lowest seat sat a young man who remained quietly in place, as if he was already used to all of this.

But whenever the two elders of The Carter Family complained about the clan head, a trace of helplessness and disdain would flash across his face. Is it really true that prosperity must be followed by decline? After twenty years of management by the previous clan head, The Carter Family had reached a level of glory unseen in a thousand years. Was it really going to start declining now that it had fallen into the hands of this playboy clan head?

Although he wasn't a member of The Carter Family, every time he thought of this, he felt uncomfortable. For over a year now, Grace Bennett had been representing the Sixth Master at the elders' meetings, and he'd seen this kind of thing too many times—he was starting to feel numb to it.

After venting, both elders turned their eyes to the old man with a long beard sitting with a gloomy face on the second seat below the clan head's. This was the Second Elder, William Carter, who currently presided over the elders' meetings of The Carter Family.

William Carter had been sitting here all day, only to learn that the current clan head of The Carter Family had gotten into a jealous quarrel, fought over a woman, and even got knocked out.

"Send the master apothecary over immediately to see what's going on, and dispatch the guards as well. If the clan head is fine and wakes up, bring him back at once. Today's elders' council must be held, and with a few extra items on the agenda." William Carter's face was as dark as water, and his long beard seemed about to flutter from the surging energy within him.

If William Carter weren't forcibly suppressing his anger, if not for decades of cultivation, he would have said, 'It'd be better if he were dead. As long as he's not dead, bring him back.'

What kind of clan is The Carter Family? One of the five founding clans of the Mingyu Dynasty, with a thousand-year legacy and at its peak of strength—yet something like this had happened. The dignified clan head of The Carter Family actually...

"That's right, we've been too lenient with him. From now on, the elders' council day must require him to return a day early," Henry Carter nodded repeatedly.

Samuel Carter's long horse face was also grim. "Not only that, but his daily expenses and special advances as clan head must be cut again. Let's see how he causes trouble without money. He's completely disgraced our The Carter Family."

"Sigh!" Grace Bennett sighed inwardly, took a sip of tea, and thought, is it really true that every generation has its heroes and its fools? Is The Carter Family really going to decline after reaching its peak? If this continues, all sorts of conflicts are bound to erupt sooner or later.

Sixth Master, you seek peace and don't attend the elders' council, but leave me here to suffer. This is more painful than being wounded on the battlefield—it's like watching The Carter Family decline with my own eyes. This feeling is truly...

With the Second Elder's order, someone from The Carter Family immediately rode off at full speed, heading straight for the Yuhuang Academy, one of the two top academies of the Mingyu Dynasty—also known as the playboys' academy.

...

"I've transmigrated? Damn! Does this count as a double transmigration?" James Carter rubbed his aching forehead, where a lump the size of an egg had formed, making it look like he had grown a horn.

But this was no horn—it was a huge bump from being smashed by a bench made of ironwood. At this moment, James Carter realized he had transmigrated, and all sorts of unfamiliar information was flooding into his mind.

Right now, James Carter felt like his head was about to explode, because the information pouring in was a complete mess. That's right—utterly ridiculous and chaotic, with nothing serious or useful.

Chasing women, spending money, fighting, gambling...

Damn, what the hell is all this?

This guy is also called James Carter. What was he doing before all this?

James Carter was extremely annoyed—not just because of the unicorn-like bump on his head, but also because of the transmigration. He used to read novels and watch shows about people transmigrating to other worlds and thought it sounded exciting and fun, but now that it had happened to him, it was really, really unpleasant.
