Chapter 929: Making a Move

Translator:Exodus TalesEditor:Exodus Tales

After all, in front of Great Qin’s Legatee, let alone Nation Legatees, even Dynasty Legatees were not much. As someone important to Great Qin’s Legatee, to the point that he was Great Qin’s Legatee’s representative in the real world, he had a status equivalent to that of a Nation Legatee, if not greater.

When she thought of this, the female soldier thought of the plans Wu Qingniang had made – after Zhao Fu arrived, they would capture him and feed him a Reality Pill, bringing his body into the Heaven Awaken World.

Her Majesty was actually going to make a move on someone so important to Great Qin – the female soldier’s face became even more pale. Thinking of the consequences, she could not help but say, “Your Majesty, are you really going to do such a thing? He belongs to Great Qin’s Legatee.”

Wu Qingniang nodded seriously and harrumphed in dissatisfaction, “Otherwise, he’ll never leave with me. I don’t know why he’s so loyal to Great Qin’s Legatee; I can give him everything that Great Qin’s Legatee gives him. However, if he’s not willing to come, we can only do this.

“With how savage and cruel Great Qin’s Legatee is, Zhao Fu will die at his hands sooner or later. After all, Zhao Fu possesses King’s Fate. Zhao Fu’s outcome will be quite horrible if he stays with Great Qin’s Legatee.

“Moreover, Great Qin has finished unifying the northern side of the Midland Continent; after solidifying its foundation, it will start to make a move against other directions. No one will be able to stop them, so I’ve already made preparations to relocate. The Zhou Dynasty is but an ant in front of Great Qin’s Legatee, and he can crush it easily.

“I heard Great Qin’s Legatee is incredibly lascivious; I won’t become a plaything for him to release his lust on. It’d be better for me to die. As such, I’ve made all preparations already. Even if Zhao Fu’s unwilling to leave, we’ll take him by force.

“Afterwards, we’ll head to the Southern Continent and hide there for a while. The Midland Continent is no longer safe; after the Heavenly Domain Boundary disappears, we can expand to other places and not worry about Great Qin’s Legatee’s threat anymore.

“Even though our strength is nothing in front of Great Qin, it is still enough to keep ourselves safe.”

After listening to Wu Qingniang’s words, the female soldier felt much less worried. Since they had made preparations and were not rashly going against Great Qin, things would not be too bad. Otherwise, Great Qin’s wrath at them capturing one of their people would be quite great.

Just as the female was about to say something in response, her expression suddenly fell and cried out, “Your Majesty, hurry and leave.”

Wu Qingniang also sensed those terrifying ripples, and her expression became quite grim as her heart plummeted. It was already too late to run, because two cloaked figures had appeared above them.

The person in the lead gave off a monstrous aura that made them feel utter despair. Wu Qingniang knew this aura quite well, because it was from the most terrifying person in the human world – Great Qin’s Legatee.

Wu Qingniang and the female soldiers had never expected that the person to come would not be Zhao Fu but Great Qin’s horrifying Legatee.

What was going on? Thinking about Zhao Fu, who still hadn’t come after all this time, Wu Qingniang realized something must have happened to Zhao Fu, and her heart tightened.

Boom!!

The female soldiers did not hesitate and exploded out with their auras, wanted to cover Wu Qingniang as she ran away. Otherwise, they would all die.

However, after exploding out with power, before they could do anything, Great Qin’s Legatee merely stretched out a hand and pressed against the air, causing an invisible force to lock down all of them. The surrounding mountains and forests fell deathly silent as an oppressive aura spread out.

Wu Qingniang gritted her teeth and looked at the terrifying, cruel eyes underneath the cloak. Just as she was about to say something, Great Qin’s Legatee said first, “Qingniang!”

Hearing this familiar voice, Wu Qingniang’s body lost all strength, and she nearly fell to the ground. She looked at the cloaked figure in disbelief; how could Great Qin’s Legatee have spoken with Zhao Fu’s voice? Could it be… a shocking thought emerged within Wu Qingniang’s heart.

This thought was quickly confirmed – Zhao Fu took off his cloak, revealing his incredibly handsome face and gray-white hair, as well as his black dragon-inscription clothes. His body gave off a noble, domineering, and monstrous aura.

“Zhao Fu?” Even though Zhao Fu looked quite different in the Heaven Awaken World, Wu Qingniang could clearly tell that this person in front of her was Zhao Fu. She cried out in a trembling voice, unable to believe that Zhao Fu was actually Great Qin’s Legatee.

Thinking about all of those questions she had from before, Wu Qingniang understood everything, and her expression became dim.

The other cloaked figure landed as Zhao Fu came to Wu Qingniang’s side. Seeing Wu Qingniang’s expression, the female soldiers understood and went to one side.

Looking at Wu Qingniang’s dim expression, Zhao Fu said, “I’m sorry, Qingniang. You understand the situation I was in. Before Great Qin had developed, I could not even keep myself alive, so I could only choose to hide it from everyone.”

Wu Qingniang still angrily turned her head away. She had never thought that someone she had trusted so much had been lying to her this entire time. Now, the dynamic between them had completely changed; before, Wu Qingniang had been quite confident in herself, but now that she knew that Zhao Fu was Great Qin’s Legatee, all of her confidence had evaporated.

Seeing how Wu Qingniang looked, Zhao Fu felt quite uncomfortable and said, “Qingniang, I’m really sorry. What do I have to do for you to not be angry at me? I don’t want to see you like this.”

Hearing Zhao Fu’s words, Wu Qingniang looked at the pained Zhao Fu and did not feel as angry. She understood Zhao Fu’s feelings towards her; very few people could make Great Qin’s Legatee like this.

However, Wu Qingniang still looked quite displeased, though she was no longer angry. She hit Zhao Fu a few times while Zhao Fu smiled and hugged her.

“Your Majesty, are you just going to cast me to the side?” the person Zhao Fu brought took off her cloak and said with a slight hint of jealousy.

Hearing this voice, Wu Qingniang looked over and found that it was actually the ancestor of the Wu family, the person who had given her the Legacy – Wu Zetian.

What was going on? Why was her ancestor, Wu Zetian, here?

Zhao Fu gave Wu Qingniang a simple explanation about all of this, and Wu Qingniang understood the situation. The reason why Zhao Fu brought Wu Zetian was because Wu Zetian was the creator of the Zhou Dynasty and would be able to persuade Wu Qingniang.

Wu Qingniang left Zhao Fu’s embrace and respectfully bowed to Wu Zetian, saying, “Ancestor Wu!”

Wu Zetian lightly smiled as she walked over, saying, “Qingniang, there’s no need to be so courteous to be in the future. Just act normally and treat me like a big sister.”

Hearing this, Wu Qingniang smiled and lightly nodded. However, seeing Wu Zetian affectionately hug Zhao Fu’s arm, she realized something and glared at Zhao Fu.
