Book 1, Chapter 418, End of Book 1
After Zhao Fu controlled the two of them, he immediately had Dongfang Kong give out a series of orders, raising Zhao Fu to the highest position.
Dongfang He looked quite shocked; how had Zhao Fu's status been raised so much after leaving for a while? It seemed that Zhao Fu was even more terrifying than he had thought.
A beautiful woman with a graceful figure angrily ran into the room and looked at Dongfang Kong sitting in front of her as she said angrily, "Why did you give my little brother's position to someone else?"
She was Dongfang Mei, Han City's number one beauty. She did not know that Dongfang Kong had been controlled by Zhao Fu, and after hearing that her little brother had been crippled, she angrily ran over, wanting an explanation.
Dongfang Kong did not say anything while Zhao Fu lightly laughed, "You're indeed quite good-looking!"
Dongfang Mei frowned and noticed that there was a mysterious cloaked person in the room and asked coldly, "Who are you?"
Zhao Fu lightly smiled as he replied, "I'm the newly appointed Deacon!"
Dongfang Mei said coldly, "So it's you!"
Zhao Fu laughed.
Dongfang Mei angrily looked at Dongfang Kong and said, "Have him leave; I have something to say to you."
Dongfang Kong did not reply.
Dongfang Mei felt quite confused as to why Dongfang Kong would act like this.
Just as she was about to say something, Zhao Fu smiled as he said, "You don't need to say anything; he's already under my control."
Dongfang Mei felt quite startled and looked at Zhao Fu before quickly retreating. She never would have thought that Dongfang Kong would be silently controlled by someone in the City Lord's Residence, making her situation incredibly dangerous.
Seeing that she wanted to run, Zhao Fu waved his hand and a wave of energy slammed the door shut.
Dongfang Mei stopped and turned to look at Zhao Fu with an unsightly expression as she asked, "What do you want to do to me?"
Zhao Fu lightly smiled and walked over to Dongfang Mei.
A few hours later, Dongfang Mei lay on the ground with a red face while Zhao Fu put on his clothes. Dongfang Mei asked, "Who are you?"
Zhao Fu said, "It's not a good time to talk about it now."
Dongfang Mei continued, "Then what did you do to my husband and brother?"
Zhao Fu glanced at her and said, "They are already under my control, and their souls have been devoured. Right now, they are just two puppets."
Dongfang Mei cursed angrily, "You bastard!"
Zhao Fu said calmly, "You guys won't be any better off. Also, you better behave yourself. Otherwise, I'll destroy your entire family."
Dongfang Mei was both angry and wronged. She looked at Zhao Fu with tears in her eyes.
Even though she did not have any feelings for Dongfang Kong, and becoming a puppet would only affect her status, she did not feel too bad about it. However, the key thing was that her little brother had become a puppet, and she felt incredibly sad. Now that she had been bullied and threatened by Zhao Fu, all sorts of emotions welled up within her.
Seeing Dongfang Mei cry, Zhao Fu helplessly hugged her and comforted her, "I won't treat you and your family unfairly. After I become the City Lord, I will choose a deacon from your family, but your status is not limited to the City Lord's wife. As for your brother, I can only apologize."
Dongfang Mei felt a bit better, but she still angrily looked at Zhao Fu. It was evident that she would not forgive Zhao Fu so quickly.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door and Dongfang He said, "Sir, I've already gathered the information you wanted."
Zhao Fu nodded and looked at Dongfang Mei, who was in his embrace. He took some clothes and wrapped them around her body and sat on the seat before opening the door.
Dongfang He entered the room and saw that Dongfang Kong and Dongfang Lu were on one side, while Zhao Fu was sitting on the City Lord's seat, holding the disheveled City Lord's wife in his arms. Dongfang He understood the current situation and was even more shocked at how powerful Zhao Fu was, as well as Zhao Fu's identity.
The information that Zhao Fu had asked Dongfang He to gather was information that could be appointed as the City Lord. Now that he had become the highest-ranking deacon, the next step was to become the City Lord.
The City Lord could only be appointed by the Great Deacon, and Dongfang Hu was one of them. Zhao Fu did not want to trouble him too much, and he wanted to find another deacon to appoint him as the City Lord.
Of course, Dongfang Kong would not be abolished before he made a big mistake. As such, Zhao Fu could only make Dongfang Kong disappear and then inherit the position of City Lord.
The Head Attendant's power had reached the Spirit Realm, and Zhao Fu could not control it, so he could not use this method.
Zhao Fu asked, "Who do you think will be the easiest to convince among the many deacons?"
Dongfang He replied, "Most City Lords are loyal to a certain deacon, and the City Lord of Han City was originally loyal to Dongfang Hu. If sir chooses someone else, it will definitely cause some disputes. Sir was arranged by Dongfang Hu, so I think Dongfang Hu should be the easiest."
In order to avoid his identity being exposed, Zhao Fu did not want to interact with Dongfang Hu. However, Dongfang Hu was the most suitable person, so Zhao Fu could only look for him.
Dongfang Mei was in Zhao Fu's embrace, and hearing Zhao Fu's words, she could feel that the people behind Zhao Fu were not ordinary.
Zhao Fu thought for a moment before saying, "Alright, I understand. I'll go find Dongfang Hu in a bit."
Dongfang He bowed and said, "I'll be going now!"
Dongfang Mei looked at Zhao Fu and asked, "What are your plans and goals?"
Zhao Fu smiled as he said, "It's fine to tell you; I want to become one of the most powerful people in the eighth alliance."
Dongfang Mei felt quite shocked and did not believe that Zhao Fu could do it. However, thinking about how mysterious and powerful Zhao Fu was, perhaps he could do it.
Seeing Zhao Fu tell her such an important matter, Dongfang Mei asked in a small voice, "What kind of person do you take me for?"
Zhao Fu smiled as he said, "Of course you're my woman!"
Dongfang Mei inwardly let out a sigh of relief. She had been afraid that Zhao Fu was just toying with her, so she looked at Zhao Fu and said, "If you treat me better in the future, I can forgive you. Also, you have to return my little brother to me."
Dongfang Lu was of no use to Zhao Fu, so he smiled and said, "Sure!"
Only then did Dongfang Mei give a trace of a smile and hug Zhao Fu as she snuggled into Zhao Fu's embrace.
Two hours later, Han City's City Lord suddenly died, and news of this spread. Everyone looked quite confused and the various Deacons hurried over.
Dongfang Kong was a Void Realm Cultivator, and even though he was quite weak, he would not die so easily. There was something very suspicious about this, so the Deacons wanted to come and see what had happened.
To avoid trouble, Zhao Fu directly cremated Dongfang Kong's corpse so that there would be no witnesses.
Within the hall, the Deacons looked at the urn in front of them and sensed the aura. It was indeed Dongfang Kong's ashes, and a round-faced young man asked, "Wasn't the City Lord fine two days ago? How did he suddenly die? "
