"Oh!"

Wang Sheng chuckled softly.

The faint sound echoed in the quiet room, startling Zhao Feipeng, who was already on edge with fear and anger. His heart trembled, his face changed drastically, and he almost couldn't help but run away!

but,

Zhao Feipeng finally managed to suppress the overwhelming fear in his heart, lowered his head, knelt on one knee, and remained motionless.

Wang Sheng sized up his second senior brother Zhao Feipeng for a moment, then turned to look at Zhao Jie's blood-stained corpse lying on the bed.

"No matter how cunning and scheming you are, no matter how powerful you are, after you die, your own son will still be at the mercy of others, who won't even dare to acknowledge you, instead blaming you, a dead man!"

Looking at Zhao Jie's grotesque corpse, Wang Sheng silently recited in his heart.

Therefore, when a person dies, they lose everything.

So a person must do everything they want to do before they die.

"After me, let the flood come."

Wang Sheng murmured, which startled Zhao Feipeng so much that he trembled again.

It can be said,

Zhao Feipeng's life is now in Wang Sheng's hands.

Any move Wang Sheng made could make Zhao Feipeng anxious and fearful for a long time.

call……

Wang Sheng let out a breath, then smiled helplessly and said...

"Master has truly misunderstood me."

"I wanted to protect my master's family's legacy, but alas, my master, with his petty mind, misjudged me and thought such bad things of me. It truly breaks my heart as his disciple!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Junior brother, no, no, Senior Brother Wang Sheng is kind-hearted and exceptionally talented. My father is truly senile; I hope Senior Brother won't take offense!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Feipeng nodded obsequiously, repeatedly agreeing, and dared not utter a single word of rebuttal.

"Since I'm not wrong, someone has to be wrong, right?"

Wang Sheng looked at Zhao Feipeng with a smile.

"Senior brother, senior brother, spare my life!"

Zhao Feipeng's expression changed drastically. He was about to shout when Wang Sheng raised his hand and pointed at him, interrupting him.

Peng!

Zhao Feipeng fell to the ground.

He collapsed and passed out.

"Master, don't worry. I will leave you with my bloodline. But Senior Brother Feipeng, it's best not to speak or move around carelessly sometimes."

Wang Sheng stepped forward and raised his hand to close Zhao Jie's unseeing eyes.

He had just pondered for a moment and had probably figured out how to handle the matter.

If Wang Sheng doesn't want to step into the limelight and reveal his cultivation level, and prefers to remain behind the scenes, then Zhao Feipeng is a crucial pawn.

With Zhao Feipeng around, the Zhao Family Martial Arts Academy will not exist in name only, nor will it disband.

Moreover, Zhao Jie's network of connections would at least give the Zhao family some face, especially the He family, with whom he had a good relationship.

Now that Zhao Jie is dead, He Wei, who had been under Zhao Jie's protection, can rightfully help protect the Zhao Family Martial Academy under the guise of repaying his kindness.

Therefore, Wang Sheng had already prepared his next plan, pushing He Wei to the forefront and using Zhao Feipeng's family connections to maintain stability and create an environment where Wang Sheng could cultivate in peace.

Wang Sheng continued his seclusion and cultivation, while also taking time to investigate the activity at the tomb.

The night gradually passed.

Before dawn,

After He Xiangjun and the others finished their nightly defenses against the Emperor's army, they were a step too late and went to visit him.

Many experts in Ershui City were furious at Zhao Jie's death and shouted that they would retaliate.

Zhao Feipeng suffered another blow from a Grandmaster of Internal Energy, and his excessive grief led to a qi deviation, leaving him paralyzed and bedridden, which evoked many people's sighs and sympathy.

"Zhao Feipeng survived two direct confrontations with Grandmasters of Internal Energy; he's quite a figure!"

One of the great martial arts masters commented on it this way.

quickly,

He Xiangjun then sent the Zhao family the battle merits of the two Grandmasters of Transformation Realm who had been killed by Wang Sheng a few days earlier, as well as the extra compensation given by the government for Zhao Jie's death in the effort to wipe out the Emperor's Army.

At present, Zhao Feipeng is paralyzed in bed at the Zhao Family Martial Arts Academy, Liang Shi is silent, Cui Sheng obeys Wang Sheng's every command, and He Wei has long been subdued.

Therefore, Wang Sheng, who had already secretly taken control of the Zhao Family Martial Academy, had Cui Sheng exchange his battle merits for ten Nine Yang Pills.

Wang Sheng took half of the compensation. The other half was split equally between He Wei and the Zhao Family Martial Arts Academy.

Loach Street

Wang family.

Inside the seclusion room,

Wang Sheng sat cross-legged, but his expression was not very good.

"Yuan is in vain!"

"It seems he's not entirely ignorant of what's happening in the city."

On the very night after knocking Zhao Feipeng unconscious, Wang Sheng traveled over a hundred miles to search the area around the large tomb. He did not find Zhao Jie's master, Yuan Wang, but he did find traces of a long-term inhabitant.

So Wang Sheng had He Wei watch over the Zhao Family Martial Arts Academy, while he himself squatted around the tomb for three days and three nights.

He had no intention of exploring the tomb alone; without the right conditions and detailed information, he would not risk going in.

but,

Yuan Wang, however, never appeared.

Seeing that the wait was taking too long, Wang Sheng gave up on keeping watch.

After several days of silence, news of Zhao Jie's demise had spread, and Yuan Wang, who was traveling outside, also learned of it.

Yuan Wang would probably guess whether Zhao Jie had spread the news of that great tomb, and he probably wouldn't dare to show himself for a while.

"It's not that I was unlucky and happened to catch Yuan Wang leaving the Great Tomb. It's that Yuan Wang knew Zhao Jie was going to die, so he left the Great Tomb."

Wang Sheng muttered to himself.

If it's the former reason, then it's just luck, nothing to say about it.

However, if it is the latter reason, it can only mean that Yuan Wang was in the emperor's army, or even that Zhao Jie's death was caused by Yuan Wang.

"They all deserve to die!"

"They all scheme and plot, deliberately trying to block my path of martial arts. Why can't they just stand obediently in front of me and let me crush them!"

Wang Sheng was burning with rage. His expression was gloomy, his eyes were red, and he clenched his fist, producing a faint but terrifying sonic boom.

"Master! Master!"

At that moment, a maidservant outside the secluded room called out softly twice.

"What is it?"

Wang Sheng suppressed his anger and asked in a cold voice.

The maid shrank back slightly upon hearing this and whispered,

"Master, a man in black robes has come to pay his respects. He says it's your mistress!"

"Master's wife?"

"The Liang family!"

Upon hearing this, the coldness on Wang Sheng's face eased slightly.

"A visitor dressed in black robes in the middle of the night—they must be up to no good!"

Wang Sheng muttered to himself that the visitor was up to no good, but his face showed no sign of tension. Yet, because of Liang's arrival, his anger only intensified.

For the past few days, Wang Sheng had been waiting by the tomb and hadn't had time to deal with the martial arts academy's affairs.

Liang was also ignored and left aside.

Now that Liang has come to see me in the middle of the night, she must have been feeling uneasy and terrified for days before finally taking the initiative to come to me.

"Let her come alone."

Wang Shengdao.

"yes!"

The maidservant immediately hurried away.

In no time at all,

A soft, hesitant footstep came from outside.

Before anyone could knock on the door,

Wang Sheng then said,

"Come in."

The footsteps stopped abruptly.

creak!

The door to the seclusion room was opened!

A black figure suddenly darted in.
