After returning to the real world, Zhao Fu left his room and decided to go to the restaurant downstairs that was specially prepared for the Ying family's collateral relatives. The so-called collateral relatives referred to people like Zhao Fu, who were one rank lower than the collateral relatives. They only had the Ying family's bloodline.
However, even though the collateral relatives' treatment was not as good as the collateral relatives, they were still quite good. For example, they could eat whatever they wanted in the district's restaurant, and they didn't even need to pay – the Ying family would take care of everything.
It was a sunny day, and there weren't many clouds in the sky. The sun was high up in the sky, and it was quite hot.
Within a building, a skinny middle-aged man looked through his sniper scope and smiled as he saw Zhao Fu come out. He slowly aimed his sniper rifle at Zhao Fu's head and slowly pulled the trigger. It was as if he could already see the bloody scene of Zhao Fu's head exploding and brain matter splattering everywhere.
At the same time, Zhao Fu was walking on a small path when he suddenly saw a one dollar coin on the ground. Now that he was rich, he was satisfied with everything, and he didn't even bother to pick up the one dollar coin. Just as he bent down to pick up the coin, he saw that someone had dropped a dollar coin on the ground.
Bang!
A gunshot suddenly rang out, and in that instant, Zhao Fu's hair stood on end. He felt something brush past the back of his head, and Zhao Fu's mind went blank. His heart violently thumped, and time seemed to slow down as Zhao Fu breathed heavily.
In the next second!
Zhao Fu quickly ran into a nearby bush and started to run as fast as he could.
Bang!
Another gunshot rang out, and the people around him started to run in panic. Zhao Fu took this opportunity to run back to his room and slammed the door shut. He leaned against the door, his body slightly trembling. He had never thought that death would be so close to him, and he had almost been shot in the head.
Elsewhere, a middle-aged man saw Zhao Fu run back into the building, and his expression became quite unsightly. He cursed inwardly and abandoned his sniper rifle, choosing to run away. He knew what he was doing.
This middle-aged man was called Zhou Qian, and he was a member of an assassin organization. When he had first received this mission, he had been quite hesitant because he knew how terrifying the Five Great Clans were. Even top-tier assassin organizations wouldn't dare to offend them.
However, this time, he was only killing an unimportant collateral relative. He wasn't even comparable to a collateral relative, and he only had the Ying family's bloodline. Killing him wouldn't attract much attention. Moreover, the reward for this mission was $60 million, and $30 million had already been transferred to his account. Moreover, the other party had provided him with a way to go overseas, which was why Zhou Qian dared to take such a big risk.
At first, Zhou Qian wanted to try sneaking into the residential area, but this was not a simple residential area. Although the people living in the residential area were from another department, there was still a very top-notch security system, so it was difficult for Zhou Qian to sneak in. Therefore, he chose this method of assassination.
Now that he had failed the mission, he had to run away because the Ying family's people would soon find him.
Within the room, Zhao Fu gradually calmed down and thought about who had done this. However, after thinking about it, he knew who it was. Apart from the Li family, who else could it be? They definitely knew that he had the Ying family's bloodline and were afraid that he would rise up in the Ying family and cause trouble for the Li family, which was why they wanted to kill him so quickly.
"Li family! I'll definitely slaughter your entire family in the future! "
After his mother died, Zhao Fu had listened to his mother's last words and didn't seek revenge on the Li family. Even when he had obtained Qin's legacy, he had only wanted to change his life and didn't want to have anything to do with the Li family. He had never done anything to harm the Li family.
However, now! The Li family had challenged Zhao Fu's bottom line time and time again, and he had almost died. Zhao Fu's hatred towards the Li family reached a boiling point, and he couldn't help but tightly clench his fists and grit his teeth as he coldly said.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Zhao Fu calmed down and realized that he was nothing in the real world. He had no money or power, so how could he escape the pursuit of a large family?
If they could send people to assassinate him today, they could send people to assassinate him tomorrow, and they could try to poison him the day after. He had become a thorn in the Li family's heart, and they would do everything in their power to kill him.
Perhaps he could reveal his identity as Qin's legatee and obtain the Ying family's full support. The Ying family was one of China's Five Great Families, and they were much more powerful than the Li family.
Although the Great Tang was the Celestial Empire of the past, and it could be said to be a powerful aristocratic family, even more powerful than the Yang Clan of the Sui Dynasty. However, the Great Tang and the Ying Clan of the Qin Dynasty were several hundred years apart. Thus, he could use the Ying Clan to eliminate the Li Clan.
He would kill everyone in the Li family and have Li Zhe kneel in front of his mother in repentance before ending his life.
"Hahahaha …"
Suddenly, Zhao Fu started to laugh, mocking himself for being so stupid. "Did you think that if you stood out and yelled that you were Qin's legatee, the Ying family would warmly welcome you and recognize you as the master of the Ying family?"
"Was … that even possible?"
He was just an outsider who only had a bit of the Ying family's bloodline; how could they give the entire Ying family to him? Who would be willing to accept such a massive Ying family being taken by an outsider?
Zhao Fu could tell from how the main families looked at the collateral families, who were even inferior to the side families, that they were divided into different levels. If the Ying family reestablished itself in the Heaven Awaken World, the collateral families would be given the lowest positions to solidify the Ying family's rule. That was the value of the collateral families.
Once Zhao Fu revealed his identity, the Ying family would recognize him as the master of Qin's legatee, but they would secretly use all sorts of methods to make him a mere figurehead. After obtaining Qin's legatee, once Zhao Fu lost his value, he would be killed by the Ying family.
"In this world, for the sake of profit, brothers can turn on each other and father and son can kill each other. Do you dare to say anything? Would they do anything to an outsider who doesn't even know anything? "
As such, even if Zhao Fu revealed his identity, that didn't mean that he would be safe. Instead, he would have to face the even more terrifying Ying family. The Li family's danger came from the surface, while the Ying family's danger came from the shadows.
As such, the current situation was that anyone could easily crush him to death, and he was just that weak.
The problem was that both the Li family and the Ying family were in danger, and he had no choice but to escape. As such, Zhao Fu could only fall into deep thought.
Suddenly!
Someone knocked on the door, causing Zhao Fu to feel quite startled and look at the door.
"May I ask if Mr. Zhao is here?"
