Before they came from the capital, they had already confirmed that the most suitable candidate was the eldest daughter of the Family Ying family.
The Great Elder had said that the eldest daughter of the Family Ying family was born on the 24th of March at one minute and one second. There was no mistake about it.
How could it not be?
The man's gaze was as cold as a knife.
Zhong Manhua had never seen such a look before. Her body trembled as she said, "Re-really, Xiao Xuan was not born on the 24th of March. It's just that when we adopted her, we changed her birthday to this date."
She also knew that Ying Yuexuan's actual age was slightly older.
It was just that she had been in a very bad mental state during that period of time. If it had not been for Ying Yuexuan's company, she would have probably been sent to a mental hospital.
She did not know why these people placed such importance on the date of birth, but she could not allow them to take Ying Yuexuan away.
Hearing this, the man laughed coldly.
He strode forward, grabbed Zhong Manhua's collar with one hand, and lifted her up.
Zhong Manhua's face turned even paler.
Her feet were in the air, and her eyes were filled with fear.
On the other side, Ying Zhenting was still lying on the ground, and his face was also pale.
Although he was already over 50 years old, he had been working out regularly, and his body was even better than the average young man who drank and smoked.
However, the man in black seemed to have kicked him lightly, and he did not use much strength, but he felt as if his internal organs were tumbling.
Even the bodyguards that the Four Great Clans had specially arranged for their children were not as strong as this.
"Adopted?" The man looked at Zhong Manhua calmly, and there was a hint of mockery in his eyes. "You want to trick me with just a few words? Do you think I'm a fool like you from the secular families?"
Zhong Manhua's brain could not work anymore.
She could not understand the words that the man was saying at all. She could only instinctively protect Ying Yuexuan.
Who were these people?
How dare they?!
Zhong Manhua's voice trembled violently, "What, what I said is true. You, you only need to ask any family in Hu City. They, they all know that Xiao Xuan was adopted by a Family Ying, so she really wasn't born on that day!"
"What about your biological daughter?" The man believed half of it, but his voice was even colder. "You're smiling at your adopted daughter like a flower and asking about her well-being. Why isn't your biological daughter here? Could it be that she's your enemy? "
They had been waiting outside the Family Ying Mansion for more than half a day.
The man was also afraid that he had caught the wrong person, so after observing for a while, he repeatedly confirmed that Ying Yuexuan, Ying Zhenting, and Zhong Manhua were his biological children.
His words made Zhong Manhua's face turn red. She was embarrassed.
However, her life was in the man's hands. No matter how embarrassed Zhong Manhua was, she had no choice but to say the rest of her words.
Her lips trembled. "She, she's cut off all ties with our Family Ying. I swear, I'm telling the truth. You can go and find Ying Zijin. She was born on March 24th!"
The man narrowed his eyes and loosened his grip. He slowly spat out three words. "Ying Zijin?"
"Yes!" Zhong Manhua begged as if she had grasped at a life-saving straw. "It's her. You can go and find out. It's really easy. Everyone in Hu City knows about it. How can I lie to you?"
The man turned his head and gave the man in black a look. "Go and ask."
Then, he let go of Zhong Manhua and casually threw her on the ground.
The man in black understood and quickly left.
Zhong Manhua was finally able to breathe fresh air. She gasped for air.
After seeing the man's actions, she was stunned. She took out her phone with trembling hands. "You, you can call and ask."
The man took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands. "I don't like to use these things. Do you understand?"
Zhong Manhua didn't dare to say a word. She gritted her teeth.
The man glanced around the hall and sat down on the sofa leisurely.
However, every minute and every second was like torture for the three people of the Ying Family.
Ten minutes later, the man in black returned.
He cupped his fists and knelt on one knee. "Second Young Master, I've asked a few families. She is indeed the adopted daughter of the Family Ying. The real daughter of the Family Ying is Ying Zijin."
"Okay." The man looked up at Zhong Manhua. His eyes were cold. "Ying Zijin, where is she?"
"She …" Zhong Manhua wanted to answer, but found that she didn't know at all. She was even more embarrassed. "I, I don't know."
The man's eyes swept to Ying Zhenting.
Ying Zhenting's body stiffened. "I don't know either."
He didn't pay attention to Ying Zijin at all. He was busy with the company these days. How could he have the energy to do anything else?
"Second Young Master." The man in black stepped forward and whispered a few words in the man's ear.
After hearing the report from his subordinates, the man understood the Family Ying matter.
"It's disgusting that your parents would do this to you." He sneered and looked down at them. "If it weren't for the fact that the Judicial Court only gave us one place, you would all be dead today."
He didn't look at Zhong Manhua anymore. He waved his hand lightly. "Let's go to the Zhong family."
A group of people came aggressively and left quickly.
Zhong Manhua collapsed on the ground. Her face was as white as paper and cold sweat poured down.
"Mom!" Ying Yuexuan finally reacted. She rushed over to Zhong Manhua and hugged her. "Mom …"
"It's okay. It's okay now." Zhong Manhua raised her hand and hugged her. Her voice was still trembling. "They won't come again."
Ying Yuexuan pursed her lips. "But mom, they've gone to look for my sister. Isn't that …"
She suddenly felt lucky that all the families in Hu City knew that she was an adopted daughter.
Otherwise, she would have been taken away by those people.
Zhong Manhua seemed to have woken up from a dream. She panicked again. "Zhenting, what, what should we do? We have to save Zijin. "
Ying Zhenting was still very weak, but her expression was extremely cold. "What should we do? Are these people we can afford to offend? Mind your own business. If you ask me, she's a jinx. "
Zhong Manhua's face turned pale.
She had been so focused on protecting Ying Yuexuan that she had forgotten that Ying Zijin had just reached adulthood.
These people were ruthless and could casually say the word "death".
Even if Ying Zijin had a good relationship with Fu Yunshen, Venus Group was a business empire. Fu Yunshen was only the president sent by the headquarters to manage the Asia Pacific region.
How could they compete with those people?
"Dad, mom, I can go to Continent O alone." Ying Yuexuan suddenly spoke and interrupted Zhong Manhua's thoughts. "You were shocked today. Dad is injured. I'll take you to the hospital first."
Zhong Manhua's attention was drawn back. She was a little worried. "Can you go alone?"
"Senior will come and pick me up." Ying Yuexuan said in a low voice. "Mom, don't worry. The ISC finals are held in the city next to Yi Lan Public School."
Hearing this, Zhong Manhua nodded.
Her body trembled as she stepped forward and helped Ying Zhenting up. "Zhenting, let's go to the hospital."
After the two of them went out, Ying Yuexuan picked up the suitcase by herself.
She pressed down the corners of her mouth, but she could not hide her smile.
Although she did not know how Ying Zijin had offended these terrifying people, it did not matter.
As long as Ying Zijin was taken away, no one would be able to threaten her.
**
On the other side.
The man and the group of men in black he brought quickly went to the Zhong family.
The courtyard door of the Zhong family's old house was tightly shut.
Usually, only Old Mr. Zhong lived here. After he accompanied Ying Zijin to the capital, he gave Butler Zhong and the other servants a holiday.
The man did not need to go in. He used his internal strength to sense that there was no one inside.
His expression turned cold. "Let's go to the Wen family."
The group of people went to the Wen family's neighborhood, but the door of the apartment was still closed and there was no one inside.
"Second Young Master." At this moment, the man in black who had previously asked for information spoke. "Family Ying's eldest daughter is a high school student in Qing Zhi. Do you want to go to the Qing Zhi?"
"Capture a few of her classmates and threaten her. She will definitely come back."
"High school?" The man frowned. He was obviously unfamiliar with this term.
The man in black quickly added, "It's the school."
The man pondered for a moment and shook his head. "No, it's a place where people gather. If we go, it will cause chaos. We can't explain it to the judicial hall."
Although they had obtained the approval of the judicial hall for leaving the ancient martial arts world this time, the judicial hall only allowed them to bring back an ordinary person.
If their whereabouts were exposed, they would be punished.
The man in black asked again, "Then go to Continent O?"
"No." The man in black frowned. The man frowned. "Most of the hunters on the NOK list are wandering around Continent O and have the family's mortal enemies. If we go now, it's tantamount to telling them that we have a weakness."
The man in black also hesitated. "But if we don't bring the eldest daughter of Family Ying back, the young master's illness …"
"Wait first." The man's frown deepened. "Didn't you say that the competition will end at the end of May? She still has to come back to take the college entrance examination. Big brother can still afford to wait. We'll wait for her to come back and then take her away."
The man in black said tentatively, "But I'm afraid that she won't be willing. After all, she's quite famous in the outside world. If she goes missing, this …"
"My big brother is a dragon among men. If it weren't for this, the Lin family would be begging for a marriage alliance." The man's eyes instantly turned cold. "She's an ordinary person from a secular family. It's her honor to be able to marry him."
The man in black lowered his head and did not speak.
The ancient martial arts world was a mystery to the outside world. Ordinary people would not know about it at all.
The eldest young master was indeed a dragon among men. Not only was his appearance excellent, but his talent in ancient martial arts was also a rare genius in the family.
But just last month, his body suddenly turned straight down. He was so weak that he could not even get out of bed.
They had brought the eldest young master to the ancient martial arts world to take a look. They had also eaten a lot of rare medicinal herbs, but the eldest young master still did not recover.
Later, the Great Elder returned from his travels.
The Great Elder of the family was not a member of the family, but a fortune-teller.
A long time ago, because the family's previous family had saved the Great Elder's life, he took the position of the Great Elder and stayed in the family.
Then, the Great Elder gave the eldest young master a fortune-telling.
The divination said that the eldest young master had such a tribulation in his life.
If he wanted to recover, he had to find someone to marry him to make up for this tribulation.
After this tribulation, the eldest young master would be able to stand up after breaking through. His body would recover, and his ancient martial arts cultivation would be higher than before.
But the conditions for the candidate were very strict.
The female had to be at least 18 years old and had to be the descendant of a wealthy family.
Her birth date could not be more than half a second away from 1: 01: 01 on March 24th.
The only one who met these conditions was the eldest young lady of the Family Ying family.
That was why they had left the ancient martial arts world and traveled thousands of miles to Hucheng.
"Now wait here in Hucheng," the man said calmly. "Find an empty house to stay in. When the person comes back, immediately bring her back to the ancient martial arts world."
**
The next day.
Continent O.
University town.
Ying Zijin woke up very early.
After she finished washing up, she raised her head and squinted her eyes to look around outside the window.
In addition to the cameras in every corner, there were many imperial guards transferred from the royal families of various countries in Continent O. They were responsible for the surrounding security, and the security was very strict.
After all, this was the first global scientific competition. Unsurprisingly, many forces wanted to sabotage it.
Even if it was not during the development of the ISC International Finals, there were two top universities and laboratories in the world here. It was also a place that people wanted to invade.
At the entrance of the university town, nameless packages were often found. After opening them, many times, there were time bombs inside.
Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes, put on her clothes, and went downstairs.
Just as she went downstairs, a balloon floated down from above her head.
It was a Donald Duck.
He was holding a fish in his arms.
A low and slow voice fell, and there was a smile on his face. "Good morning, a balloon for our little friend."
Ying Zijin glanced at the handsome man and took the balloon. Her voice was calm. "Raise your hand."
Fu Yunshen raised his eyebrows. "What do you want?"
Ying Zijin tied the Donald Duck balloon to his wrist, took a step back, and looked at him. "This time, the silly one is you."
Fu Yunshen looked at the balloon on his head and then went forward.
He supported himself with one hand on the wall, hugged the girl in his arms, and lowered his head.
