25: The female lead? Dare to disobey me, and I'll beat you without hesitation!

"What are you not telling me?"

Wang Ming's voice suddenly rang out.

Wang Tianfeng and Wang Changfu were startled.

Especially Wang Changfu; he turned his head and looked at Wang Ming as if he had seen a ghost. "When did you come in?"

Wang Ming smiled. "Just now."

Wang Changfu was dazed. Just now?

He hadn't sensed Wang Ming's aura at all!

"Wait, what Realm are you at now?" Wang Changfu asked expectantly, as if realizing something.

"Foundation Establishment, Fifth Layer," Wang Ming replied.

"How many?!"

Wang Tianfeng lunged forward and grabbed Wang Ming's collar. "You brat, how many did you just say?"

"Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer! Ming'er, you... you're not joking?" Wang Changfu's beard trembled with excitement.

Just from the fact that Wang Ming could walk into the hall soundlessly, he was at least eighty percent sure that what Wang Ming said was true.

For the other twenty percent, he still wanted to hear it from Wang Ming's own mouth.

Wang Ming nodded. "I had some insights a few days ago, so I broke through."

Seeing him admit it, Wang Changfu laughed heartily. "Good, good, good! You brat, you really are a Genius!"

Wang Tianfeng sucked in a cold breath. "It's only been a few days, yet you actually broke through from the Foundation Establishment Second Layer to the Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer. You brat are going to be Heaven-Defying!"

At this point, Wang Changfu suddenly became serious. "Tianfeng, this matter is to be classified as top secret for our Wang Family. No one is allowed to leak it!"

Wang Tianfeng nodded, also realizing the danger involved.

Although the Wang Family could be called an overlord in Qingzhou City.

Looking at the surrounding dozens of cities, their ranking was actually below average.

The Wang Family's strength was all out in the open and didn't threaten those above them, which was why no one paid them any mind.

But if the Wang Family showed strength that could threaten those above, even if it was just potential, those people would never sit idly by and let the Wang Family grow!

Wang Changfu looked at Wang Ming and said in a heavy voice, "Ming'er, try to keep a low profile for a while."

"Don't worry, I know."

Wang Ming's aura suddenly retracted, becoming extremely restrained, maintaining the level of the Foundation Establishment Second Layer.

Being too outstanding is the fundamental reason why many Children of Destiny are suppressed.

Naturally, he wouldn't make that same mistake.

When he revealed his true combat power, all witnesses—unless they were one hundred percent on his side—would have to die!

Wang Changfu pondered for a moment, then took out a Storage Ring and handed it to Wang Ming. "You contributed the most to the encirclement of the Ye Family. There are twenty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones inside. Take them and Cultivate well."

"Twenty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones?!"

Wang Tianfeng was dazed. In the looting of the Ye Family, they had only harvested less than ten thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones in total!

Where did twenty thousand come from?!

Wang Changfu glared at him and continued, "Ming'er, in all the generations of our Wang Family, no one has ever surpassed Foundation Establishment to break through to Core Formation. And you are the one with the most hope of breaking through to Core Formation in our family's history!"

Saying this, he patted Wang Ming with a gratified expression. "Work hard. If you need anything for your cultivation, just ask. Your grandfather still has some private savings."

"I will work hard."

Wang Ming smiled slightly and turned to leave the hall.

Core Formation?

Isn't that as easy as lifting a finger!

Considering he had lived two lives, read about the rise of countless Children of Destiny, and even had the Heaven's Fate Arch-Villain System, would a mere Core Formation be worthy of being his goal?

His goal had been established from the moment his memories awakened.

To sweep away the Children of Destiny, to bring life with a smile and destruction with a frown, and to achieve that supreme position!

Villain? Child of Destiny?

I don't give a damn!

Whoever obstructs him, just kill them all!

...The entire Ye Family was exterminated, and the smell of blood condensed over Qingzhou City, refusing to dissipate for a long time.

The once luxurious Ye Residence had now become a pile of ruins.

The entire Qingzhou City was shaken by this!

"Forming a marriage alliance with the Wang Family back then was indeed the correct choice!" Ouyang Mingqiang was incredibly glad he hadn't chosen Ye Chen.

The members of the Ouyang Family all offered suggestions, telling Ouyang Mingqiang to find an opportunity to persuade Ouyang Yaoxi to conceive a child for the Wang Family as soon as possible.

Only in this way could the Ouyang Family be truly and firmly tied to the Wang Family.

Ouyang Mingqiang also agreed with both hands and feet.

However, how to facilitate this matter still required specific discussion.

Meanwhile, at the Wei Family.

They were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

The Ye Family was destroyed, and the Ouyang Family had become in-laws with the Wang Family.

Among the four major powers of Qingzhou City, only the Wei Family had become an outsider.

Wei Lai, the head of the Wei Family, was so worried his hair had turned white.

He glared at his wife and concubines. "You useless lot, what's the point of having so many sons? It would have been better to give birth to a daughter!"

If he had a daughter, even if she became a concubine for Wang Ming, it would be good!

Then, as if remembering something, his eyes suddenly lit up. "If I remember correctly, A'bao is going to marry a wife in a few days, right?"

Nearby, Wei Bao's mother, Wei Lai's thirteenth concubine, changed expression. "Master, you're not thinking of..."

Wei Lai waved his hand dismissively. "Someone, go bring a message to Young Master A'bao. Within one day, send his betrothed wife to the City Lord's Manor. If he refuses, just tie her up and bring her to me!"

"Yes, Family Head!"

Several guards took the order and left.

"That daughter-in-law of mine is beautiful; even I was quite tempted. If I weren't getting older and my body wasn't what it used to be, I would have taken her as a concubine long ago. It wouldn't have been that brat A'bao's turn."

Thinking this, Wei Lai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Regardless of what Wang Ming was like now, his reputation was there after all. His lustfulness probably wasn't an act.

If he sent a woman over, even if she couldn't become a concubine, just staying by his side as a personal maid would at least count as establishing some connection!

...Ouyang Yaoxi received a letter from Ouyang Mingqiang.

The letter only mentioned two points: the Ye Family's downfall and the hope that she could give birth to an heir for the Wang Family soon to enhance the relationship between the Wang and Ouyang families.

Seeing this letter, Ouyang Yaoxi's face turned pale.

Her vision went dark, and she almost fainted.

"The Ye Family... destroyed?!" Ouyang Yaoxi's delicate body trembled uncontrollably as she tightly gripped the letter, the fury in her eyes almost overflowing!

Just then, Wang Ming pushed open the door and walked in, holding an exquisite hairpin in his hand.

Ouyang Yaoxi turned her head sharply and roared, "Wang Ming, you promised me you wouldn't move against the Ye Family!"

Wang Ming placed the hairpin on the table and slowly walked up to Ouyang Yaoxi. Without a word, he backhanded her across the face.

He said indifferently, "Watch your status. Do I need to explain my actions to you?"

Female Lead?

I don't give a damn!

If you dare to defy me, I'll beat you anyway!

Ouyang Yaoxi was stunned by the blow. She stared at Wang Ming blankly, as if in disbelief. "You dare hit me?"

"If you say one more word, I will immediately take my men and go destroy the Ouyang Family right now," Wang Ming said coldly.
