In a courtyard in the Li family manor, Zhao Yu was lying on a rocking chair, rocking back and forth in boredom. From time to time, he would reach for a bottle of fruit juice and take a sip.
A day had pa.s.sed since he killed Li Tian Ba. The compet.i.tion in the Immortal Medicine Convention had been suspended, and he had been escorted to the Li family manor by the Li family and the other three families.
There were more than ten powerful elders of the four great families and countless other experts protecting him.
Their goal was naturally to prevent the w.a.n.g Family from killing Zhao Yu and dragging the other four families down with them before the dust settled.
Moreover, in order to prevent people from being disgusted with the world, no one was allowed to come to Zhao Yu’s courtyard alone. The food that was usually delivered was checked and tasted by special personnel.
Moreover, the people who came in and out to deliver things were all ordinary people. Even if such people wanted to a.s.sa.s.sinate Zhao Yu, they probably wouldn’t even be able to pierce through his skin.
“Young Master, there’s a new batch of grapes. Do you want to eat them?”
A graceful woman in cool clothes asked softly.
Although she was an ordinary person, she was chosen to be Zhao Yu’s maid because of her good figure and look.
There were three others like her. Each of them was beautiful and charming. They all came from the four great families. Their goal was naturally to obtain Zhao Yu’s favor and leave behind an heir to change their fate.
“Yes!”
Zhao Yu nodded lightly.
Soon, a beautiful woman took the initiative to step forward and kneel at the side. She peeled the grape skin and carefully fed it to Zhao Yu’s mouth.
“Not bad, very sweet!”
Zhao Yu nodded his head in satisfaction. He suddenly felt that this kind of life was quite pleasant.
At the very least, it was difficult to find such a woman who was willing to be a slave on the moon base.
The main reason was that the concept of cla.s.s was obvious here, and the bloodline inheritance was orderly. Many people were born and had already accepted their fate, unlike on Earth, where the idea of equality was deeply rooted in people’s hearts. Even if there were women who were willing to serve him, no one knew what they were thinking or plotting for the future. They might even want to kill him for money when the time comes.
On the other hand, the four maidservants here could not possibly have any bad intentions. At most, they hoped that Zhao Yu would favor them and leave behind a son.
Unfortunately, Zhao Yu did not have such intentions.
If these women had performed normally, he might have really been tempted to play with them.
However, it was precisely because their service was too good that Zhao Yu was too satisfied, so he did not want to change anything lightly.
Because he could control the essence, it was easy for him to not have any offspring.
If they were unable to bear his child, the four families might vent their anger on them later on.
Therefore, Zhao Yu decided not to touch them and let them maintain their value. This way, the four families would only think that he looked down on ordinary women and would not make things difficult for them.
After enjoying a few grapes, Zhao Yu turned to the woman fanning him nearby and asked softly, “How is the situation in the city?”
“The w.a.n.g family has suspended all their businesses and has withdrawn to their family residence. There hasn’t been any major chaos yet…”
Although these women were ordinary people, they were now close to Zhao Yu and naturally had some privileges. They were instructed on what they could and couldn’t say.
“Did they mention when the Immortal Medicine Convention will start?”
“No, I heard it will be held after the w.a.n.g family incident was settle down…”
“Young master, I heard that the delegation from Moon City has arrived, led by a Tier 3 expert. They have already gone to the w.a.n.g family…”
“Yes, the leaders of the other four major families have also been summoned. It is said that a trial conference will be held at the w.a.n.g family’s manor…”
Zhao Yu was not surprised by the arrival time of the delegation from Moon City. He had scheduled his plan to kill Li Tian Ba to coincide with this time.
The purpose was that regardless of the outcome of the negotiations between the w.a.n.g family and the Li family, a decision would be made by the envoy from Moon City.
However, the delegation arrived a day later than expected, and Zhao Yu was more formidable than antic.i.p.ated, having directly blasted Li Tian Ba into dust at the arena.
This indeed caught everyone by surprise.
Afterward, Zhao Yu continued to enjoy the life of being attended to.
When the other three maids had to leave for some tasks, leaving only a maid from the Li family.
“Young master, the Li family wants me to ask if you would allow them to conduct some research. In exchange, they can provide you with some resources…”
“Research?!”
“They noticed your physique is special and can quickly recover vitality. It might be some kind of mutated bloodline. If they can a.n.a.lyze something from your blood, it could potentially benefit humanity…”
“I see!”
Zhao Yu had thought everyone had forgotten about his performance in the arena.
It seemed that the w.a.n.g family’s issue was more pressing, temporarily overshadowing his matter.
“How many blood they need, and what kind of research? Can you represent the Li family?”
Zhao Yu looked at her suspiciously.
This maid was just an ordinary person. If not for her good figure and looks, she wouldn’t have been allowed near him. How could the Li family give her such authority?
“Young master, forgive me. I am only here to ask for your att.i.tude. The specific cooperation will be discussed later by the Li family’s members…”
“Stand up, stand up, I’m not blaming you!”
Zhao Yu reached out to help her up, finding the touch quite pleasant.
“Did they mention when they want to discuss this with me?”
