Chapter 88 Detailed Information About Zhang Fei
Wang Jian strode purposefully towards his mother’s chambers, eager to learn the current state of her territory. With each step, he could feel the weight of responsibility on his shoulders.
As he entered the room, he found Bai Liqin, regal and imposing as ever, waiting for him.
Wang Jian entered his mother’s chambers, looking straight at her. “Mother, how is the territory?” he asked with concern.
Bai Liqin stood up from her chair and gave him a reassuring smile. “Don’t worry, my son. Your territory is safe and prosperous. I have made sure of that,” she said as she placed a hand on his shoulder.
Wang Jian nodded gratefully before asking, “What is your plan now that I am back?”
Bai Liqin took a deep breath before responding, “I am relinquishing every bit of power over my territory to you. From now on, you will be in charge of everything.”
Wang Jian’s eyes widened in surprise. “Mother, are you sure about this?”
Bai Liqin nodded firmly. “Yes, I am. I have complete faith in you and your capabilities, my son. You will make sure that the territory continues to prosper.”
Wang Jian couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride wash over him. “Thank you, mother. I won’t disappoint you,” he said with a smile.
Bai Liqin then turned to her subordinates and said, “Summon everyone. I have an important announcement to make.”
As the subordinates entered the chambers, Bai Liqin informed them of her decision to give power over her territory to Wang Jian. She instructed them to send the news out to all her subordinates to ensure that they would listen to her son’s orders.
As Wang Jian witnessed his mother give every bit of power over her territory to him, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of relief wash over him.
This was a major boon for his plans, as it saved him the trouble of starting his own faction from scratch. 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑜𝘳𝘨
With this power now in his hands, he could focus on strengthening his position and consolidating his control over the region.
Wang Jian spent the next few days in the Royal Palace as he gave his women a tour of the vast and opulent palace, showing them the intricately decorated corridors, the sprawling gardens, and the shimmering fountains.
The women were amazed at the sheer scale and beauty of the palace, with its towering pillars, ornate ceilings, and colorful murals that seemed to come alive under the sun’s rays.
As they explored the palace, Wang Jian recounted tales of the palace’s rich history, telling them of the great emperors who had once walked the same halls they now tread. They marvelled at the ancient artifacts and treasures that adorned the palace, from intricately carved jade figurines to golden vases adorned with precious gems.
For his women, who had never ventured beyond the rugged terrain of the Zhenguan Region, this was an entirely new experience. They were fascinated by the courtly culture and the sophistication of the capital’s inhabitants.
Even Kang Huian, Han Xifeng, and Lady Xia, who harbored mixed feelings towards Wang Jian, couldn’t help but feel awestruck by the grandeur of the palace.
They were struck with a sense of inadequacy, feeling as though they paled in comparison to this illustrious prince.
As he escorted his women around the palace, Wang Jian commanded his subordinates to scour the entire Windhaven Kingdom for a comprehensive report on Zhang Fei.
He also tasked them with compiling a detailed list of beautiful female cultivators who were affiliated with sects or associations in that kingdom and were related to him.
A week later, Wang Jian received the report he had been waiting for.
Wang Jian’s eyes widened as he read through the report. “So, he is a core disciple of the Celestial Dragon Sect,” he muttered to himself.
He turned the page and read further with a bland look as he gazed at the number of clans, towns, and even the individuals this guy had massacred.
Soon, he finished reading that bit of information before moving on to the information regarding his women.
“And he has a maid named Xiao Ling… who was ready to sell her body to provide a funeral for her clan? This is utterly ridiculous,” Wang Jian exclaimed, unable to comprehend the situation. He shook his head in disbelief, wondering how such a bizarre turn of events could even occur.
Wang Jian muttered, “Breaking her will be challenging.”
He read more and found out that this was just the start of this absurdness.
Zhang Fei had another woman, and she was the daughter of the city lord where the Zhang Clan resided. Qianwei Town.
As Zhang Clan rose with the help of Zhang Fei’s pellets and techniques, they even defeated their bitter rivals, the Li Clan, and completely destroyed them. The City Lord of Qianwei Town decided to invest in Zhang Fei and ordered his daughter, Meng Xiangyi, to be in a relationship with him.
Apparently, his daughter was fiercely against this order.
However, during her expedition to the nearby forest to gather rare materials, beast hides, and cores, Meng Xiangyi found herself in danger.
It was then that Zhang Fei appeared like a hero, saving her life not once but multiple times.
As a result, Meng Xiangyi’s initial hostility towards him transformed into admiration and love.
However, this was just the start.
Amidst his endeavours, Zhang Fei found himself drawn to another alluring beauty, Xu Yuting, a member of The Dao of Alchemy Society. The young woman was none other than the granddaughter of the eleventh elder of the association, known for its mystic proficiency in the field of alchemy.
Due to her grandfather’s wish for her to acquire hands-on experience, Xu Yuting was stationed in the remote town of Qianwei to oversee the operations of the branch.
As fate would have it, the timing of Zhang Fei’s rise coincided with Xu Yuting’s presence in the town, leading them both down a path that binds their destinies together.
The fourth was the third princess of the Windhaven Kingdom. Chen Yiyun.
There was also information about the heiress of the Silver-Tailed Fox Clan from the Beastclaw Grove situated in the Windhaven Kingdom. Her name is Bixi Shuyan.
Moreover, there were rumors that Zhang Fei had a couple of women even in the Celestial Dragon Association.
Suddenly, a maid arrived and interrupted his musings. “Master, your friends are here to meet you,” she announced.
Wang Jian raised an eyebrow in curiosity before realizing who had come. He nodded in acknowledgement and quickly put the catalogue away, making his way to the hall where his friends were waiting for him.
