After Accidentally Marrying My Sister-in-law, My 10,000x Cultivation Begins

70: So what if it’s broken? Why are you trying to teach me how to do things?”Things between Huangfu Xuan and Feng Ming have reached this point; he probably can’t bring himself to look for him. We need to send someone else.”

”Then I’ll go personally!”

Huangfu Qing proactively suggested.

Huangfu He shook his head. ”You won’t do. Whether it’s your strength or your status, you’re too conspicuous. If you move, the City Lord’s Manor will definitely notice you.”

”Let’s send a newly recruited Retainer for this matter first.”

”If the Feng Family has no intention of cooperating, then just destroy them in passing.”

Huangfu Qing nodded upon hearing this.

”This Feng Ming is a bit strange. Jinger said he only has Foundation Establishment Peak strength, yet he couldn’t take him down.”

”Hmph, then arrange for the Five-Veined Golden Core Realm Expert our Huangfu Family recently recruited to go.”

”If it works, it works; if not, just destroy them.”

Huangfu He said indifferently.

”Then what about Huangfu Xuan?”

”Since he’s handled things this way, what face does he have to come back? Deal with him as well!”

”Yes!”

Huangfu Qing nodded and then left.

Liumian Prefecture, Huangfu Family!

Butler Zhang snatched the wine jar from Huangfu Xuan’s hand and said with urgency.

”Master, you can’t drink anymore! The outside is already in total chaos!”

”If we don’t find a way, our Huangfu Family’s Medicinal Pill Shops won’t even be able to open tomorrow!”

Huangfu Xuan laughed upon hearing this.

”Find a way? You tell me, how do I find a way?”

”What other way is there?”

As Huangfu Xuan spoke, he pushed a pile of empty wine jars off the table, smashing them to pieces.

”Now our Huangfu Family has become a thorn in the side of the people of Liumian Prefecture. They want nothing more than to kill us. What choice do I have?”

”Feng Ming’s move of cutting the ground from under us was too ruthless.”

”Family Head, if you don’t find a way, the Main Family Branch...”

Halfway through his sentence, Butler Zhang stopped his voice.

Huangfu Xuan, hearing this, said with old tears streaming down his face.

”I thought that by taking over the Medicinal Pill market in Liumian Prefecture, I could ask the Main Family Branch for a Medicinal Pill for Reshaping the Dantian for Yi’er!”

”But now, even this last hope has been shattered!”

”It’s over! It’s all over!”

As Huangfu Xuan spoke, he snatched the fine wine back from the butler’s hand and started drinking again.

He didn’t notice at all that outside the door at this moment...

Huangfu Yi was listening to everything.

Feng Family.

Jiang Shuwan, having finished washing up, looked at Feng Ming, who was still drinking tea, and asked.

”Husband, didn’t today’s matters all get resolved perfectly?”

”Why do you still look so worried?”

Feng Ming gave a bitter smile.

”Silly girl, this isn’t the end; it’s only just the beginning.”

”The Huangfu Family from Qingyang City will definitely send people later. Once they understand my intentions, I’m afraid there will be no more pretenses of warmth!”

Jiang Shuwan sat down beside him and took Feng Ming’s hand.

”I believe that no matter what the Huangfu Family does, you will have a way to deal with it, Husband. And I will always be by your side!”

”Besides, now that the people of Liumian Prefecture trust the Feng Family so much, what can’t we overcome?”

Feng Ming shook his head.

”The Feng Family’s reputation in Liumian Prefecture is indeed good, but reputation and public praise are a double-edged sword. Used well, they are a Sharp Weapon; used poorly, they will cause a backlash.”

”Today, I led the people to cause this scene entirely by relying on their trust in our Feng Family. But the premise was that we went to Haoyue Temple to solve the problem and broke the Huangfu Family’s plan.”

”But if they had succeeded, we would be the ones standing at the center of the storm today.”

”As long as the Huangfu Family found any excuse, they could destroy our Feng Family’s public praise and reputation. When the wall falls, everyone pushes; the Feng Family’s fate wouldn’t be much better than the Huangfu Family’s.”

”If it weren’t for the fact that I didn’t have conclusive evidence, I really wouldn’t want to use this double-edged sword of reputation and public praise!”

Jiang Shuwan squeezed Feng Ming’s hand tightly to comfort him.

”Everything is in the past. At worst, we’ll just try not to use this double-edged sword in the future!”

”It’s getting late, let’s rest, Husband!”

Feng Ming nodded, then said in surprise.

”Why are you in such a hurry to rest tonight?”

”Usually, aren’t you afraid of resting with me?”

Jiang Shuwan’s face turned red upon hearing this, and she said.

”I also want to quickly Breakthrough to the First Level of Golden Core. Right now, there’s only one vein on my Golden Core, and the second one is just a faint trace. I have to work hard!”

Feng Ming immediately laughed.

”In that case, I can’t spoil my wife’s mood.”

”Let’s go, time for bed.”

After saying that, Feng Ming picked up Jiang Shuwan and walked toward the bed.

Products from the System are bound to be top-quality.

The thirteen-fold speed of the Inverting Dragon and Phoenix Art was indeed very fast.

When Feng Ming woke up the next day, he found that Jiang Shuwan had already broken through to the Second Level of Golden Core.

The power within Feng Ming’s own body had also changed. Although there were no signs of breaking through to the Golden Core yet, the liquefaction was already very obvious.

All that remained was to wait for it to fully liquefy and then condense into a core to advance.

When Feng Ming and Jiang Shuwan were getting up to wash, Chun Tao ran over with an anxious face. ”Madam, Young Master, I just heard the news—Huangfu Yi has committed suicide.”

”What?”

Feng Ming and Jiang Shuwan were shocked.

”Huangfu Yi hanged himself.”

Chun Tao repeated once more.

Feng Ming and Jiang Shuwan looked at each other, and both of them walked toward the Feng Family Discussion Hall.

Inside the hall.

Everyone from the Feng Family had already gathered there.

Feng Ming sat down and spoke.

”Huangfu Yi hanged himself, but Huangfu Xuan was in a drunken stupor and didn’t notice at all. It was only when Huangfu Yunyan went to find him the next day that it was discovered.”

”The Huangfu Family is currently holding a funeral. The people of Liumian Prefecture are no longer making things difficult for them, but no one is going to the Pill Workshop anymore, and they haven’t opened their doors either.”

Feng Xiaotian nodded and looked at Feng Ming.

”What do you think?”

Feng Ming sighed.

”I didn’t kill Boren, but Boren died because of me.”

”I crippled Huangfu Yi’s Dantian. For him to recover, he would need a Sixth-Grade Medicinal Pill, but they certainly don’t have the purchasing power. Even in Qingyang City, Sixth-Grade Medicinal Pills are rare.”

”I reckon Huangfu Xuan planned to take over the Medicinal Pill market in Liumian Prefecture and then curry favor with the Main Family Branch to ask for a Medicinal Pill to restore the Dantian. But yesterday’s events caused them to completely lose the Liumian Prefecture market.”

”Huangfu Yi probably committed suicide because his hopes were shattered.”

”Huangfu Xuan will likely also be punished by the Main Family Branch. With no status and having lost his son, I’m afraid he’ll be driven to desperate measures.”

”We need to hurry up.”

Feng Xiaotian was silent for a moment and then said.

”Dealing with the Huangfu Family was handled by you from the start. You will also be responsible for the subsequent matters!”

”Just tell us what to do, and our entire Feng Family will definitely cooperate with you fully!”

Feng Ming nodded and said to Feng Xiaotian:

”Grandfather, I now need someone who can gather information to head to Qingyang City ahead of us. The Huangfu Family has already started paying attention to our Feng Family’s movements, but we know nothing about them.”

”And if we are to go to Qingyang City, we must have some people go there first to settle things.”

Feng Xiaotian nodded. ”I will arrange this.”
