Chapter 337: The Dust Has Settled
“All this time, you mother and son have been riding on my neck. Do you really think that I, Wei Heng, don’t have a temper?
“Hehe, no, it’s just that the time hasn’t come yet.
“It’s not just you, but the other three stupid women as well. You think that with the power supporting you, you can act arrogantly in front of me, Wei Heng, in White Dragon City. You’re too naive!
“From the beginning, this was just a trap for you. In fact, this trap was specially prepared for you, Lin Hui. You’re too confident. You’re so confident that you think you can control everything.
“But you’ve been by my pillow for three years and my wife for 21 years. You don’t know me at all.
“If you knew me, you would know that I’ll never accept any threats!”
Wei Heng pinched Lin Hui’s cheek and looked at her face, which was still as beautiful as ever, with a sneer.
“Wei Heng, Wei Heng! I beg you to let me go! Let me go once! I promise that from now on, I won’t take even half a step into White Dragon City!”
Lin Hui broke down.
Tears flowed down her face as she continued to beg Wei Heng. She was no longer as high and mighty as before.
Even so, the way Wei Heng looked at her did not waver in the slightest. It was as if in his eyes, the latter was already a dead person.
“Tell me, if Baishou finds out that I killed you with my own hands, will he hate me? Hehe, he definitely will.
“If it weren’t for you, I would have thought the most highly of Baishou. He was just like me back then, unscrupulous and decisive in his killing. However, he crawled out from your belly!
“If he didn’t have a background, my position today would have belonged to him tomorrow!”
Hearing this, Victor could not help but smile bitterly.
Sure enough, everything was just Wei Heng’s meaningless words.
Most beloved woman, most beloved daughter?
They were all just empty words.
Most importantly, it was because Wei Zihan did not have any forces behind her.
Otherwise, her fate might not be any better than the others.
“Wei Heng, I beg you! Wei Heng! Don’t kill Baishou, he’s your biological son!”
“He’s your biological son, not mine.”
Wei Heng sneered and grabbed Lin Hui’s hair, throwing her to the ground.
“Do you really think I’m stupid? How can a nascent soul cultivator not see that Wei Baishou’s qi and blood are different from mine?
“Or is it that when you married me, I couldn’t tell that you were pregnant?
“You used a secret technique and delayed his birth for four months. Whose child is he? Do you think I don’t know?”
‘F*ck! What a piece of explosive news?!”
Victor was shocked. He did not expect Wei Heng to openly announce such news!
Or did the people of this world not care about these things?
“You… you knew…”
“You thought you could keep me in the dark by using some small tricks, but you didn’t know that in my eyes, you’re just a clown.”
“Lin Hui, what else do you have to say now?”
Wei Heng looked at the woman without any emotion in his eyes.
“Wei Heng, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost!”
“What a joke! You want to become a ghost when the psychic Daoist is with me here? You are looking down on my methods!”
The old man in the Daoist robe waved his hand and pulled out Lin Hui’s soul. He continued, “Thank you for your hospitality, city lord. The souls of twelve nascent soul stage cultivators are a great fortune.”
“Don’t worry. We will do what we promised you. In ten years, the nine of us will stay in White Dragon City. We will leave when Miss Wei Zihan has grown up and is able to take care of things on her own.”
“Thank you, nine of you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Heng’s aura suddenly disappeared. He bent down like an ordinary person.
It turned out that Wei Heng had burned his blood essence in the battle just now. No matter what the outcome was, he would surely die!
However, now, it seemed that the outcome was favorable.
Lin Hui was dead, and the Central Plains Sect Alliance was greatly weakened. Unless a soul formation cultivator took action, they was no longer a threat.
As for the other three forces.
After seeing today’s situation, Wei Heng believed that they would remain obedient for a period of time.
“City lord, all the enemies have been killed.”
At the right moment, Victor heard Chang An’s voice. He turned his head. Hundreds of core formation cultivators from the Central Plains Sect Alliance had all been killed!
“That’s right, Chang An. After this battle, I will give you the method to improve your core quality and help you reach the nascent soul realm. When the time comes, you must do your best to a.s.sist Zihan.”
“Don’t worry, city lord. Chang An will do his best until his dies!”
“In that case, I can rest a.s.sured.”
Wei Heng nodded, turned around, and slowly returned to the city lord’s mansion.
“Come out, kid. You’ve been watching for a long time.”
The matter of cleaning up the mess was left to the others. The first thing Wei Heng did when he returned to the city lord’s mansion was to find Victor, who was hiding in the dark.
“You’ve noticed.”
“I’ve noticed you since the moment you arrived. Why didn’t you make a move? With your strength, you’re no weaker than Chang An.”
“It’s impossible for you to lose. It doesn’t matter whether I make a move or not.”
“Now that things have come to this, all the threats have been resolved.”
“City lord, I have a question.”
“Speak.”
“You found nine cultivators at the completion stage of the nascent soul realm. What makes you think that Wei Zihan and Chang An can restrain them?”
“You can rest a.s.sured about this. They have all swallowed a poisonous worm. Once they break their oath, they will die on the spot.”
“What about the person who masters in poison?”
“His soul imprint is in my hands. If I destroy his soul imprint, he won’t be able to live either.”
“I understand.”
“Kid, aren’t you curious? Aren’t you curious about how my White Dragon City can be so rich even though it’s just a border city of the Central Plains?
“I’m curious. Of course, I am. How can a border city have so many treasures? I’m definitely curious, but since the city lord didn’t tell me, I can’t ask too much.”
Victor pretended not to care and shrugged, he continued, “All I want is the Thousand-year Mystic Ice. I don’t care about anything else, no matter how valuable it is. So, I’m curious, but if the city lord asks me if I’m interested, I can guarantee you that I am.”
“That’s great, Lin Bei. I can see that Zihan likes you. As long as you’re willing to stay in White Dragon City, you can use everything in the city as you wish.”
“To be honest, the offer is very tempting. I’m sure that as long as I stay, the path to the nascent soul realm will be unimpeded. However, I’m sorry, city lord. My ambition is far greater than that. Therefore, I will definitely leave White Dragon City after everything is done. That will not change.”
“Whether you leave or not won’t be up to you!”
