Zhao Sheng opened the paper and his heart sank. What was written on it was almost identical to what he had in his hand.
The perfume workshop had clearly been exposed to the Wang Family's sight long ago, but he was completely unaware.
In the cultivation world, one must never underestimate any cultivation family, especially those that were once glorious but have now declined, such as the Fragrant Swallow Valley Wang Family.
Zhao Sheng had long known that the coachman, Wang Si, was an informant for the Wang Family.
Wang Si would not betray the Wang Family sisters, but that didn't mean he wouldn't secretly send messages back to the Wang Family.
Zhao Sheng was already prepared for this, but he never expected the Wang Family to be so shameless.
Seeing Zhao Sheng's silence, Wang Zonghai asked with a smile, "Young man, there shouldn't be any omissions in what's written here, right?!"
Zhao Sheng didn't question him. Because it was pointless, and questioning was a sign of incompetence.
Faced with the predicament, he quickly racked his brains, constantly searching for a solution.
The Zhao Family and the perfume workshop need not be mentioned. As the overlord of Ganzhou, the Cultivation Wang Family's hidden power must far exceed that of the Zhao Family.
"What other bargaining chips are there?"
Just as he was thinking, a fsh of inspiration suddenly struck his mind.
Since the Wang Family had already seen through their tracks, why didn't they take the initiative to intervene but chose to watch in secret? Seeing the smile reappear on the face of the Wang Family's patriarch, Zhao Sheng suddenly had a bold idea.
The Wang Family's strange behavior was probably all thanks to the person in front of him.
After understanding this, Zhao Sheng raised the recipe in his hand and said confidently, "I remember someone saying, 'Interest is the driving force behind all human actions.' You've gone to such lengths to create this situation, it shouldn't be just to py with the younger generation, right? You might as well just say what you want."
Wang Zonghai heard this and suddenly ughed heartily. This time it was from the heart.
"Very good! If the younger generation in my family were half as clever as you in dealing with people, then I could die in peace."
Zhao Sheng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he thought, "No way! Does this old man really want me to marry into the Wang Family?"
A real man stands tall, how can he marry into a family and live off them! Zhao Sheng immediately reminded him, "Old Master Wang. I am the only son in my family for three generations."
"If I remember correctly, you are ranked ninth in the Zhao Family's generation." Wang Zonghai immediately exposed his lie.
"My parents are dead, and I have to burn incense and make offerings every year."
"As long as you have the heart, you can do the same in Fragrant Swallow Valley."
"Uh!"
Zhao Sheng was speechless and had nothing to say, so he had to be frank and honest: "Old Master, I can't possibly marry into the Wang Family."
At this time, the Wang Family members finally understood what the old and young were talking about.
In an instant, everyone was dumbfounded.
Wang Zonghai's face darkened, and he said, "Don't you want to marry my granddaughter?"
"I do. It's just that I must never betray my ancestors." Zhao Sheng said.
Just kidding! I am the ancestor of the Zhao Family, how could I betray myself.
After that, no matter how Wang Zonghai threatened or tempted him, Zhao Sheng always shook his head and insisted.
In the end, Wang Zonghai couldn't persuade him, so he had to take a step back and said, "In that case, let's make a gentleman's agreement. If you can advance to Innate within three years, then everything will be up to you. If you can't, then you will marry into my Wang Family. In addition, among your descendants with Yuqi, those without a Spiritual Root can take their father's surname, but if they have a Spiritual Root, they can only be surnamed Wang."
Listen to what he's saying.
This old geezer clearly knows everything, but he deliberately pretended to be confused from the start.
Hearing Wang Zonghai say this, Zhao Sheng immediately nodded and said, "Okay, it's a deal."
He was sure to win! Because he estimated that he could advance to Innate in at most two years.
Wang Zonghai thought he had succeeded, but he didn't know that Zhao Sheng was a man with a cheat.
[Name: Zhao Zhiqin (Zhao Sheng)]
[Lifespan: 18/120]
[Realm: First-Rate Martial Artist]
[Physique: Hundred-Year Body (Mortal Grade), Light as a Swallow (Mortal Grade)]
[Talent: Dynamic Vision (Mortal Grade)]
[Skills: Floating Light Swordpy (Mastery), Azure Sea Tide Rising Art (Great Accomplishment), Cloud Dragon Three Transformations (Unprecedented), Wind Chasing Archery (Transcendent) ...]
After that day, Zhao Sheng left Fragrant Swallow Valley alone.
Three days ter, he returned to Zhao Family Fortress. After talking with the family head He Xing and the cn elder Zhao Taizhen twice respectively, he began a long period of closed-door cultivation.
At the same time, a rge group of martial arts experts suddenly appeared in Zhao Family Fortress, led by a burly man.
As soon as they arrived, they completely took control of the perfume workshop and expanded the workshop's scale tenfold in one go.
And the Zhao Family, with the support of a mysterious force, quickly annexed several gangs in Ganzhou's underworld.
This caused a great uproar in the Ganzhou Jianghu, and everyone shouted that the wolf was coming.
A year ter, in a cultivation room within Zhao Family Fortress, Zhao Sheng sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, with faint wisps of pure Qi emerging from the top of his head.
A porcein pill bottle y on the floor in front of him, the bottle empty.
Half an hour ago, Zhao Sheng had taken the st Essence Qi Pill and officially began to break through to the Innate realm.
Because he had experience in advancing to Innate, he smoothly converted all the Azure Sea True Qi in his body into Innate True Qi.
About an incense stick of time ter, Zhao Sheng suddenly shook all over, his body suddenly flew three feet off the ground, and then lightly nded back on the ground.
Slowly opening his eyes, Zhao Sheng's face showed an excited expression.
With the help of the Essence Qi Pill, he had actually advanced to Innate a year ahead of schedule.
The power of pills is terrifying! ...
Six months ter, on the day of the Zhao Family's ninth young master's wedding, the entire Nanyang City was a sensation.
Because the people of Nanyang City had never seen anyone get married with a dowry that stretched for twenty miles.
The Zhao Family's generosity was also unparalleled, with thousands of tables of banquets set up for a whole month.
In one month, even the thinnest beggars in Nanyang City gained more than ten pounds.
This grand wedding kept the people of Nanyang talking about it for nearly a hundred years.
A year ter, Zhao Sheng had his first son, but unfortunately, he had no Spiritual Root.
The following year, a lovely daughter was born, still without a Spiritual Root.
Zhao Sheng was not discouraged and continued to hide in Zhao Family Fortress to carry out his great cause.
One night in the third year, Wang Yuyan, whose appearance became more and more refined and delicate, suddenly came to Zhao Sheng.
The first thing she said when they met was, "I'm getting married!"
Zhao Sheng was silent for a moment, and said, "Congratutions!"
"A rogue cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining is willing to join the Wang Family. My father agreed. We will get married next month on an auspicious day."
Wang Yuyan looked at the man opposite her with bright eyes, but her tone was unusually calm, as if she was talking about someone else.
"...Congratutions!" Zhao Sheng didn't know what to say, so he repeated his previous words.
"Hmph, a gutless man!"
After saying this, Wang Yuyan suddenly pounced on Zhao Sheng.
Well, a dignified Innate Grandmaster was easily thrown to the ground.
"I want you!"
