Hearing Zhao Fu’s words, the bodyguards looked at the family leaders standing by the side. Seeing this, Zhao Fu coldly said, “Who’s in charge of the Ying family right now?”

The family leaders’ expressions fell. Zhao Fu was representing Great Qin’s Legatee, so he wielded the greatest power in the Ying family; this was something that had long since been established. Disobeying Zhao Fu would be like slapping Great Qin’s Legatee’s face, and who dared to offend Great Qin’s Legatee?

The family leaders glared at the bodyguards and chided them, “Hurry up and do what the proxy family leader just ordered! Everything is to be decided by the proxy family leader in the future!”

The bodyguards quickly obeyed and dragged Leng Fei out.

Leng Fei couldn’t believe what was happening, and he struggled as he yelled, “My big brother is one of the heads of Night King!”

However, no one paid any attention to him, and in the end, Leng Fei was executed. His head and corpse were respectively sent to the Li family and Night King.

“Make preparations to suppress Night King. If they dare to do anything, Great Qin will destroy them. Other people might be afraid of them, but Great Qin is not!”

The family leaders humbly nodded. These family leaders, who had immense power and status, were a bit afraid of Zhao Fu now.

After the bloodied head was sent to the Li family, the Li family’s old patriarch felt quite enraged and cursed at Zhao Fu. However, he then started to coldly laugh – now that they had offended Night King, there was a greater chance of that bastard dying. They could not allow him to continue to develop.

Night King was also shaken by this. Leng Fei’s big brother, Leng Feng, looked at his little brother’s corpse with a gaze filled with coldness and killing intent, and he immediately turned to leave.

However, he was stopped by the other six heads of Night King. A bald-headed elder said seriously, “This matter concerns Great Qin’s Legatee, and if we act rashly, Night King could be destroyed. Your little brother did this to himself; I sent many people to try to convince him to come back, but he was determined to stay.”

Leng Feng coldly harrumphed. Leng Fei was his little brother, so he had to take revenge.

However, he also understood that this matter pertained to Great Qin’s Legatee, and every person right now feared Great Qin’s Legatee. They had all witnessed just how terrifying he was themselves.

Back at the Ying family’s residence, everyone else had left Zhao Fu’s residence, and Zhao Fu’s bodyguard brought him some food. Zhao Fu’s mood had been affected by what had happened, and he did not feel too great.

At that moment, Zheng Jiao walked in, and seeing that Zhao Fu looked somewhat unhappy, she sat beside Zhao Fu and asked lightly, “What happened?”

Zhao Fu shook his head, indicating it was nothing.

Seeing this, Zheng Jiao did not pry, and she instead lightly smiled as she took the chopsticks and bowl from Zhao Fu’s hands and said, “I’ll feed you!”

Zhao Fu wanted to refuse, but she had already taken the chopsticks and bowl. Following this, Zheng Jiao sat on Zhao Fu’s lap and smiled as she fed him. Zhao Fu could only lightly put his arm around her waist to stop her from sliding off.

“I broke up with your cousin!” Zheng Jiao suddenly said.

“…Mm,” Zhao Fu replied after falling silent for a while.

Seeing that Zhao Fu did not look angry, Zheng Jiao leaned her head against Zhao Fu’s shoulder and said with a hint of sadness, “Seeing how pained he looked, I felt very bad, so can you give me some time to forget about him? In the future, not only will my body be yours, but my heart will be yours as well.”

Zhao Fu looked down at Zheng Jiao and did not know what to say.

Facing Zhao Fu’s gaze, Zheng Jiao suddenly laughed and lightly kissed Zhao Fu’s cheek. “You don’t need to say anything. All of this was decided by myself, and you have no responsibility!”

Zhao Fu could only sigh. Even though this woman had almost been his cousin-in-law, since she had broken up with his cousin, he did not overly complicate this issue.

Seeing that Zhao Fu was not as resistant as before, Zheng Jiao smiled, tightly hugged Zhao Fu, and listened to his heartbeat.

“Zhao Fu, I want to come in!” Feng Shiyu’s voice suddenly sounded out from outside.

Hearing this, Zhao Fu couldn’t help but smile and told his bodyguard to let her in. Zheng Jiao did not leave; now, she did not need to care about what anyone else thought.

After coming in, Feng Shiyu saw Zhao Fu hugging a beautiful woman on his lap, and she lightly frowned as she said, “Zhao Fu, you’re so irresponsible! Great Qin’s Legatee’s woman is here, yet you’re not attending to her. Instead, you’re instead playing around with another woman. If I made a complaint to Great Qin’s Legatee about you, you’d be done for!”

Zhao Fu rolled his eyes, and seeing the other women who had come in as well, he asked, “Do you all have business with me?”

Seeing that Zhao Fu had ignored her, Feng Shiyu harrumphed and turned her head away, also ignoring Zhao Fu.

Li Muqing smiled and said, “Their families have obtained Top-Tier Boundary Medallions, and they want to send them to Great Qin’s Legatee’s side, becoming imperial concubines like Nü Lü.”

There was no reason for Zhao Fu not to accept free Phoenix Qi, so he smiled and nodded. He then looked at Li Muqing and asked, “What about you? What are you here for?”

“I, of course, want to go as well and see for myself what Great Qin’s Legatee is like. However, my terms are that I can serve your Legatee, but if Great Qin does not suit my fancy, I can go whenever I want. Your Legatee cannot force me to leave, nor can he do anything that violates my rights,” Li Muqing said.

Zhao Fu nodded. He did not have any intentions towards Li Muqing, and with this sort of scholarly woman joining him, Great Qin’s education would develop even faster.

Zheng Jiao understood that Zhao Fu would be entering the Heaven Awaken World again soon, so she could only kiss him on the cheek and said reluctantly, “I’ll be going now!”

Zhao Fu nodded, after which Zheng Jiao got up and left.

Seeing Zheng Jiao leave, the angry Feng Shiyu gave a light snort and said, “Who would have thought someone like you would be able to get a beautiful woman. How strange!”

Hearing this, Zhao Fu felt slightly offended – what was there wrong with him?

However, Zhao Fu continued to ignore her, making her angry to the point of stamping her foot. After they left, Zhao Fu entered the Heaven Awaken World and found the four of them at a boundary region.

Currently, Zhao Fu was not wearing his cloak, and his handsome face, jet-black hair, and evil-looking blood-red eyes were all revealed. Combined with his elegant and domineering aura, he indeed seemed quite attractive.

At first, the four women did not recognize Zhao Fu because Zhao Fu in the Heaven Awaken World and Zhao Fu in the real world were quite different.

After looking at him, Li Muqing stared for a while before coming back to her senses, a faint blush on her face.

“Hmph! Aren’t you just a bit handsome? The man I want must be powerful!” Feng Shiyu harrumphed, belittling Zhao Fu out of habit.

Zhao Fu did not reply; he wanted to see what her expression would be like after returning to Great Qin. It would definitely be quite interesting.

“Alright, eat this and I’ll take you back to Great Qin!” Zhao Fu said after handing over four Reality Fruits.

The four women looked at the Reality Fruits and did not hesitate to eat them. Following this, their bodies entered the Heaven Awaken World.

Zhao Fu took them with him and teleported ten or so times before returning to Great Qin.
