As the eldest son of Scarlet Flame City, Zhuo Wengong has had a smooth journey from childhood to adulthood. He is always complimented wherever he goes. When has he ever suffered such a disadvantage?
Under the circumstances of being deflated one after another and being stimulated one after another, his heart had completely collapsed, and he rushed towards Qin Haodong crazily!
"You go to hell!"
A long sword appeared in his palm and slashed out with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
It's just that his strength was originally not as good as Qin Haodong's, and now he was in a state of confusion and lost his ability.
As soon as Zhuo Wengong's long sword was thrust out, the opponent's shadow disappeared, and then a huge foot appeared in front of his chest.
Hearing a bang, he flew out like a kite with its string broken, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood in mid-air.
This is Qin Haodong's mercy, otherwise this kick would be enough to kick him over the edge of hell.
Zhuo Wengong fell to the ground with a plop, struggled for a long time before getting up, and shouted with a ferocious face: "Qin, how dare you hurt me!"
He Ziwei shouted: "Are you still shameless?
Originally, I had successfully chosen a bride. It was you who raised the challenge, and it was you who made the successive provocations. When the hidden weapon failed, it was you who made the first move. What else can I say now?"
"You bitch, I've wasted all my years of sincerity on you. Just wait for me. Sooner or later you will take the initiative to crawl into my bed."
Zhuo Wengong gritted his teeth and pointed at Qin Haodong and shouted, "And you, you ungrateful thing, dare to touch even my young city lord, just wait to die!"
After saying that, he turned around and jumped into the air, rushing towards the city lord's mansion.
He Zhong said with some worry: "Miss, this guy seems to have gone back to complain to the city lord."
He Ziwei's face showed joy, "Ignore him, we will go back home, my father is still waiting."
She turned around and said shyly: "Mr. Qin, come back with me."
Qin Haodong nodded and followed He Ziwei and the servants back to the He Mansion in Scarlet Flame City.
The Suzaku Kingdom was originally more powerful than the Xuanwu Kingdom. The Scarlet Flame City was built on a grand scale, with many residents coming and going in the city, creating a prosperous scene.
The He family is the largest family in Scarlet Flame City, and rumors have been passed down for thousands of years.
Their mansion is also in the best location in the city, even better than that of the city lord, with carved beams and painted buildings, and a simple and elegant building.
After entering the mansion and coming to the hall, a middle-aged man in his fifties or sixties stood there with his hands clasped behind his back. He was He Changqing, the contemporary head of the He family.
Today is the day for his daughter to recruit a bride, and he attaches great importance to it and has been waiting here for the result.
"Master, we are back!"
He Changqing walked in with He Ziwei and Qin Haodong.
Qin Haodong glanced at He Changqing. The old man had reached the late stage of integration.
He Ziwei stepped forward and took He Changqing's hand and whispered: "Father, this is Mr. Qin Haodong, the husband chosen by the Marriage Rat for me."
He Changqing looked at Qin Haodong, and then nodded with satisfaction: "The young man is not bad, he is a talented person, no wonder he was chosen by the Marriage Rat."
Then he asked: "Why did it take so long to recruit a bride this time?"
"That's it, sir..."
He Zhongqing evacuated the surrounding family members, leaving only the He family, his father and daughter, Qin Haodong and himself in the room. Then he told Zhuo Wengong how he kept causing trouble and finally launched a challenge.
After he finished speaking, he congratulated
Ziwei said: "Father, that Zhuo Wengong is really annoying. He is just messing around. Fortunately, Mr. Qin defeated him."
After hearing this, the smile on He Changqing's face quickly disappeared, and he asked solemnly: "Are you saying that Xiao Qin not only won the challenge, but also injured Zhuo Wengong?"
"Yes, but Zhuo Wengong brought this on himself." He Ziwei said angrily, "My daughter persuaded him several times not to challenge, and even asked him to quit midway, but he just refused to listen.
If it weren't for the fact that he is the son of the city lord, I would have brought him back to be a servant!"
He Changqing said nothing, clasping his hands behind his back, he kept pacing around the room with a solemn expression.
Seeing his appearance, He Ziwei said: "Father, there is no need to be so nervous. This matter was originally Zhuo Wengong's fault and has nothing to do with us."
He Changqing stopped and said: "You are too superficial. Do you think Zhuo Wengong's pursuit of you these years is just his business? Do you just want to marry you into the city lord's palace?"
"Isn't it?" He Ziwei asked in astonishment.
He Changqing shook his head and said: "Zhuo Wengong may just want to marry you, but Zhuo Wangsun's purpose is to annex our entire He family.
He has been interested in us for a long time, but because our He family has been inherited for thousands of years and has a huge influence in Scarlet Flame City, he did not take action directly.
I only have a daughter like you, so Zhuo Wangsun wants his son to pursue you and annex our He family by becoming our He family's son-in-law."
He Ziwei said: "It doesn't matter even if this is the case. Zhuo Wengong failed today, and I also have Young Master Qin. Their conspiracy will never succeed again."
He Changqing said solemnly: "Zhuo Wangsun is a very greedy person. He will not give up so easily. Since he cannot be soft, he will definitely use tough methods.
Today, Xiao Qin injured Zhuo Wengong again, giving him an excuse to take action. I think the City Lord's Mansion will take action against our He family soon."
Hearing this, Qin Haodong sighed secretly in his heart. He originally thought that being involved in this marriage proposal was just a shot in the arm, but he didn't expect that the shot was much bigger than expected. It was simply a shot in the arm.
He Ziwei said: "How is this possible? Father, are you too worried?
Our He family is the largest family in Scarlet Flame City, with a history of thousands of years, and we also have a second uncle in Suzaku King City. I don’t think Zhuo Wangsun dares to take action against us.
Besides, even if they dare to take action, our He family has so many experts, why are we still afraid of them?"
He Changqing said: "Zhuo Wangsun will not let go of this matter easily. Although the He family is powerful, it will still be unable to compete with the lord of a city. The reckless ones will still suffer in the end."
Qin Haodong frowned slightly. He felt that the old man did not tell the truth completely, at least there were some hidden things that he did not say.
He Ziwei said: "Then what should we do?"
He Changqing thought for a while and said: "Well, let's rush to Suzaku King City now.
No matter how great Zhuo Wangsun's power is, it can only be limited to Scarlet Flame City. When he gets to the Royal City and your second uncle is here, I don't think he will be able to stir up any trouble."
"Father, are you leaving now? Are you in a bit of a hurry?"
He Ziwei really didn't want to leave in such a hurry, after all, today was the day for her to marry.
According to the custom of Chiyan City, since you have chosen your husband, you have to enter the bridal chamber at night.
"We must leave immediately, and we must go quickly, otherwise it may be too late."
He Changqing made an extremely firm decision and turned back to He Zhong and said, "He Mansion will be left in your charge for the time being. Ziwei and I will go to the royal city and come back in a few days."
He Zhong said: "Don't worry, Master, I will definitely take good care of your home."
He Changqing nodded, and then said to He Ziwei and Qin Haodong: "We will set off immediately."
He Ziwei said: "Father, don't you need more people?"
He Changqing said: "No need, the three of us have a smaller target and will not be easily discovered.
This is the territory of Zhuo Wangsun of Scarlet Flame City. If our family moves too much and leaves too many people, I am afraid it will attract his attention immediately."
He Ziwei nodded and said, "Okay, I will listen to you."
He Changqing arranged a carriage, and the three of them carefully rode out of the city. Then they took off into the air, flying with their swords towards the direction of the Suzaku King's City.
Qin Haodong was secretly amused. He had just been married to someone, and now he was running away. What was this?
But it was a good thing for him to rush to the Suzaku King. His current goal was to find an opportunity to enter the Suzaku Spring. The chance would obviously be greater when he arrived at the royal city. It was best to find the specific location of the Suzaku Spring.
Moreover, judging from the conversation between father and daughter, He Ziwei's second uncle seems to have a high status in Suzaku City, and may be helpful to his plan.
He Ziwei said: "Father, if we leave, will they attack our family members?"
"Definitely not." He Changqing said, "As long as we, father and daughter, are here, the He family will not fall. If he takes action rashly, it will only cause trouble for himself.
So, it is safer for us to leave them.
But now I have a bad feeling, I'm afraid that old guy Zhuo Wangsun won't let us go easily, and we must speed up."
The three of them, He Changqing, were in the late stage of fusion, while Qin Haodong and He Ziwei were in the early stage of fusion. They flew extremely fast and were completely far away from Scarlet Flame City after a few hours.
He Ziwei said: "Father, we have now left Scarlet Flame City for nearly ten thousand miles. I think you must be overthinking. Maybe Zhuo Wangsun doesn't have the thoughts you mentioned at all."
He Changqing frowned: "That shouldn't be the case. With Prince Zhuo's character, he would definitely take action against us."
"Hahahaha, Old Man He, you really understand me."
Following a burst of wild laughter, dozens of figures suddenly appeared in the direction they were heading.
The leader was a middle-aged man in his 50s. He was wearing a luxurious robe. He was fat and looked very amiable, but there was a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
He is Zhuo Wangsun, the city lord of Scarlet Flame City. Zhuo Wengong is following him next to him. His face is still a little pale. It seems that Qin Haodong's kick was really serious.
The father and son were followed closely by 30 men in black. Each of these men had reached the integration stage, and they exuded a powerful aura.
Zhuo Wangsun looked at He Changqing and said, "Master He, where are you going in such a hurry?"
He Changqing said: "Lord City Lord, you also know that today is the day for my daughter to marry.
Ziwei is lucky enough to have found a good uncle, and I am going to take the two of them to Suzaku King City to meet my second brother."
"Really? I always feel like you are trying to run away." Zhuo Wangsun said, "I don't care about your daughter's marriage, but that kid injured my son, you must give me an explanation!"
