Fang Family Estate, as the Zeng Family took over the core area, the resistance became sporadic, and without the support of the core Golden Core, the final bit of resistance also seemed futile, the downfall of the Fang Family was inevitable.

The Zeng Family walked on the former territory of the Fang Family, and Zeng Chengtian's pent-up anger from yesterday had dissipated for the most part, but at this moment, someone stepped forward to report.

"It seems some remnants of the Fang Family have escaped."

"The monk could run, but not the temple."

Zeng Xingtian was in a sorry state, having been affected by the opponent's self-destructive blast. Despite being stronger, he was still gray-headed and dusty.

"These escaping remnants will surely go to find that woman from the Fang Family, Brother, yesterday's incident still needs an explanation."

Zeng Xingtian's anger wasn't quelled because the Fang Family was broken, after all, they only conquered the Fang Family territory, but the main figures of the Fang Family were still alive, such as the head mistress of the Fang Family and the newly appointed Young Master of the Fang Family.

No less, the Fang Family took half of their assets to the Li Family as an offering for apprenticeship.

Thinking of Li Feng, Zeng Xingtian was infuriated, his most valued son was killed by the opponent, and even the seventh child was expelled from the family genealogy.

But who could have guessed, they thought this bloodline in Li Feng was likely from the Sikong Family, and with the eldest of the Ji Family stepping in, the Zeng Family dared not act recklessly, but just as a day passed, news informed them that Li Feng had no ties to the Sikong Family.

The eldest daughter of the Sikong Family directly set a three-year deadline, asking Li Feng to await his death.

This result put a nameless anger in the Zeng Family's hearts, and this was also the reason for their harsh treatment toward the Fang Family.

Once this three-year pledge is spread, the Zeng Family will surely become a laughingstock, even if they have taken over the Fang Family, qualifying as a third-level family.

Zeng Chengtian looked at the wrathful second brother, but pondered slightly, without making a decision immediately. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Family Head, what else is there to hesitate about? We previously feared Li Feng, simply because we feared the Vermilion Bird Bloodline within him. As for the eldest of the Ji Family, it's likely due to the Vermilion Bird Bloodline that he gave the Sikong Family face, thus stepped in."

"Li Feng has no backing at all, he is not an illegitimate child of the Sikong Family, he is merely a low-born from the Lower Three Rings."

"He not only killed my son Yu'er, but also killed the eldest's legitimate son. More importantly, although we have taken over the Fang Family, most of the assets and that woman from the Fang Family are still with the Li Family."

"As long as they are alive, the shame of our Zeng Family cannot be erased, we are but a joke to everyone."

"Brother, the ancestors above."

Zeng Xingtian said fiercely, Zeng Chengtian's face turned blue, then white: "Fine, take the men to clean up the aftermath."

"Leave it to me, I will bring back Li Feng's head to honor the ancestors."

After saying this, Zeng Xingtian abruptly turned and left.

As soon as Zeng Xingtian disappeared, the fourth brother Zeng Jingtian dressed in green, gracefully turned through a moon gate towards Zeng Chengtian.

"Family Head."

Zeng Xingtian looked at the fourth brother: "Found the Fang Family treasure vault?"

"Hmm, treasures in the vault do not exceed ten thousand Golden Spirit Stones, it seems most of it was taken by that woman to the Li Family."

Zeng Jingtian said, ten thousand Golden Spirit Stones were obviously not what a third-level family should have, even though the Fang Family experienced several setbacks.

"Family Head, you seem hesitant regarding the second brother's journey to the Li Family?"

Zeng Chengtian glanced at the fourth brother, among the brothers in the family, this fourth brother was the most cunning: "Hmm, I fear being used as a pawn, even if we are merely chess pieces ourselves."

"You worry whether the news from the other side is incorrect?"

Zeng Jingtian pondered momentarily before understanding his elder brother's concerns.

"It's not quite that, I was merely wondering why the eldest daughter of the Sikong Family insisted on setting a three-year deadline, instead of simply killing Li Feng, why go through such unnecessary actions."

Zeng Chengtian said.

Zeng Jingtian frowned slightly, looked towards the Family Head and said: "It seems you've thought of this, I too was considering it earlier."

"Oh, Fourth Brother, what have you observed?"

Zeng Jingtian was stared upon, pondered briefly before speaking: "The eldest daughter of the Sikong Family didn't act for two reasons, first, Li Feng lied, he denied any connection with the Sikong Family simply because he didn't wish to recognize ancestors and clan, thus vehemently denied, the Sikong Family hasn't verified, hence no action yet."

"After all, even the Sikong Family, the awakening of the Vermilion Bird Bloodline is extremely significant, and according to the Sikong family regulations, to inherit the Family Head position, awakening the Vermilion Bird Bloodline is a precondition, thus they must be cautious."

Zeng Chengtian nodded: "And the second point?"

"As for the second, if Li Feng truly has no blood ties to the Sikong Family yet awakened the Vermilion Bird Bloodline, if it were me, I would have two ways to handle it."

"Oh?"

Zeng Chengtian looked at Zeng Jingtian: "Continue."

"One, kill him."

"Two, marry him off."

Zeng Chengtian squinted: "You mean the eldest daughter of the Sikong Family has set her sights on Li Feng, intending to recruit him as a husband?"

Zeng Jingtian nodded: "If it's the latter, then this guess is likely, the Vermilion Bird Bloodline in the Sikong Family has been passed down countless generations, though every generation has Vermilion Bird Bloodline awakeners, compared to its most glorious days, it falls far short."

"And a mere fusion of Vermilion Bird Blood obviously cannot be replicated, if truly feasible, Ancestor Dragon City wouldn't only have a few families successfully inheriting Bloodline Power, the Holy Beast bloodline is exceedingly powerful."

"Back in the day, those families researching Bloodline Power achieved many results, but over two hundred years ago in that great war, those families mixed with Demon Beast bloodlines mostly chose to betray, nearly causing the downfall of Ancestor Dragon City."

"And those traitors have now formed the Ten Demon Hall, while Ancestor Dragon City has completely banned bloodline research, currently the only remaining bloodline families in Ancestor Dragon City are connected to the Four Holy Beasts."

"The Sikong Family has likely been striving to refine their Vermilion Bird Bloodline methods, yet here appears a man possibly unrelated by blood, but possessing the Vermilion Bird Bloodline, what better, simpler, and faster way than a marital union."

"Sikong Yu herself was an exceptionally talented legitimate daughter of the Sikong Family, had she not been a woman, the Family Head position would've likely been hers, she originally had no chance, but if she marries Li Feng, has children, and those children awaken the Vermilion Bird Bloodline, showcasing potent Bloodline Power."

"Family Head, do you reckon the Sikong Family might pass the position in a generation, given the current Family Head of the Sikong Family is only about a hundred years old, and still has many years of life left, capable of waiting for this child to be born and grow up."

Zeng Chengtian listened to the analysis, murmuring to himself: "A recruited husband, I really hadn't thought along these lines, but if Li Feng truly isn't a member of the Sikong Family, it's indeed possible, no wonder the eldest daughter of the Sikong Family set a three-year deadline."

"Then Li Feng cannot be killed."
