"And you! I think you're Ying Wu. Prince Qin doesn't need a fake like you, so you can scram now and take back your surname. "
After hearing Zhao Fu's second order, everyone became even more shocked. Not only was the Ying family's number one successor, but even the fake Prince Qin would not be able to escape.
Ying Wu! No, he could only be called Li Wu. He suppressed his anger and resentment, and the humiliation he had suffered today was etched into his bones. He wanted nothing more than to tear Zhao Fu into a thousand pieces, and he thought to himself, "He's just Prince Qin's dog. What's there to bark about?"
Even though he was incredibly resentful, Li Wu didn't dare to show any displeasure on his face. He clearly understood that if Zhao Fu wanted to kill him, it would only take a single sentence.
As such, he didn't need anyone to carry him, and he walked out of the Ying family by himself. After being told to scram like this, Li Wu felt incredibly humiliated, and with every step he took, his hatred towards Zhao Fu grew.
Zhao Fu looked at Li Wu, and since they were the same type of people, Zhao Fu could sense Li Wu's hatred. He called over a guard and ordered him to kill Li Wu after he left the Ying family.
The guard obeyed and left with a few other guards.
Because Ying Qin was the Ying family's number one successor, Zhao Fu couldn't kill him. However, Li Wu was different, as he was just a minor figure. Since he dared to feel such intense hatred towards Zhao Fu, Zhao Fu definitely wouldn't let him live to prevent future troubles.
Sensing the faint killing intent in Zhao Fu's eyes, as well as the guard who had just walked up, many people understood that Zhao Fu had sent people to kill Li Wu. When they thought of this, everyone started to feel afraid, as they felt that Zhao Fu was too vicious and merciless.
However, the Ying family's Patriarchs were quite pleased with Zhao Fu's actions. Even if Zhao Fu hadn't sent people to kill Li Wu, they would have.
Under Zhao Fu's domineering aura that contained traces of killing intent, no one dared to make a sound. They all lowered their heads, and the atmosphere became somewhat oppressive.
Zhao Fu's gaze landed on Ying Xi. Feeling Zhao Fu's gaze, Ying Xi's heart jolted. Even the first successor of the Ying family had been stripped of his position as the Young Master and chased out of the Ying family. In that case, Zhao Fu wouldn't object to what he did to her.
Facing Zhao Fu's gaze, Ying Xi couldn't help but feel fear in her heart, and her body trembled. She understood that without the Ying family, she was nothing. As long as Zhao Fu gave the order, she would lose everything she had now.
"Zhao Fu!"
Wu Qingniang couldn't help but call out to Zhao Fu. She really didn't want to see Zhao Fu act against Ying Xi.
Zhao Fu looked away. He had only been dissatisfied with the way Ying Xi had spoken, but he hadn't planned on doing anything to her. After all, she had helped him before, and she was also Wu Qingniang's good friend.
"The gathering is dismissed!"
As Zhao Fu gave the order, everyone let out a sigh of relief and quickly left, afraid that Zhao Fu would do something to them.
At that moment, Wu Qingniang walked up, looking quite angry. She stretched out her hand and pinched Zhao Fu, saying, "You dared to hide so many things from us, and you even said that you didn't have any Fate and that you were in contact with Emperor Qin."
Zhao Fu could only apologetically laugh.
Ying Xi walked up and looked at Zhao Fu. She now completely believed what Wu Qingniang had said to her before: Zhao Fu wasn't as simple as he seemed, and with her strength, she wouldn't be able to control him.
"Qingniang! I'm sorry for what I said, "Ying Xi said apologetically.
Wu Qingniang smiled and said, "It's fine. I know that you said it for my own good, but it turns out that I was right!"
Ying Xi smiled and said, "I know that you're amazing."
In terms of judging people, Ying Xi couldn't compare to Wu Qingniang. Otherwise, she wouldn't have let go of a big fish like Zhao Fu. After all, Wu Qingniang had asked Ying Xi for Zhao Fu.
The two women started to happily chat, and Zhao Fu turned to look at Qiu Fengzi, who had been waiting by the side. He thought for a moment before saying to Wu Qingniang that he had some matters to attend to and leaving with Qiu Fengzi.
Seeing Zhao Fu and Qiu Fengzi leave, Wu Qingniang felt that Zhao Fu was hiding something even more important from her.
… …
Qiu Fengzi first went to his room, and seeing that there was no one around, he respectfully bowed and said, "This humble Daoist greets Your Majesty Qin. Please forgive this humble Daoist for all of this."
All of this had indeed been caused by Qiu Fengzi. First, he had held a meeting with the Ying family, and then when he had used the Fate Gazing, he had never thought that he would receive such a severe backlash. Now, Qiu Fengzi's body was in pain, and he had coughed up blood and fallen to the ground, causing Zhao Fu to be called a jinx.
Back then, Zhao Fu had only just established the Qin Village and had come to Holy Light City. Xianru had used the Fate Gazing on Zhao Fu, so she hadn't received much backlash. However, now that Zhao Fu had awakened the Chaos Imperial Star, anyone would receive a severe backlash.
Qiu Fengzi told Zhao Fu everything from beginning to end, and he sincerely apologized to Zhao Fu.
Zhao Fu hadn't expected that his identity would be exposed when he had awakened the Myrtle Imperial Star. Only after hearing Qiu Fengzi's words did he realize what had happened.
Seeing how sincere Qiu Fengzi was, Zhao Fu expressed that he was willing to accept him. After all, Qiu Fengzi had done his best to help him hide his identity and not reveal any information about him.
Qiu Fengzi looked quite delighted because Zhao Fu had accepted him. Traces of dragon-like black aura appeared around Qiu Fengzi's body, causing him to feel even more respectful towards Zhao Fu.
Following this, Zhao Fu chatted with Qiu Fengzi for a while and understood why the jade pendant that Xianru had given him had been turned to dust. It was because his Fate was simply too powerful, and any item that could conceal his Fate would not be able to withstand it.
Qiu Fengzi planned to make an item that could conceal Zhao Fu's Fate so that Zhao Fu's Fate would not be discovered in the real world.
… …
Elsewhere, a few imperial bodyguards followed Li Wu out of the Ying family's residence. The imperial bodyguards wanted to attack Li Wu, but Li Wu was quite quick-witted and quickly hid. However, he was discovered by the imperial bodyguards in the end and was cornered in an alleyway.
"You were sent by Zhao Fu to kill me, right?" Li Wu said to the guards with a face full of resentment.
However, the guards did not reply to Li Wu, and they prepared to kill Li Wu before returning to the Ying family to report to Zhao Fu.
Li Wu watched as the guards slowly took out their guns, and he felt the terror of death. At the same time, he felt a sense of powerlessness. His ending was exactly what Zhao Fu had been worried about – ordinary people would not be able to resist a large family.
Just as Li Wu thought that he was definitely going to die, a few black figures suddenly appeared and knocked down the guards before saving Li Wu.
