While I'm at the martial arts academy, my wife is cultivating while I enjoy life.

"Whether it's children or wives, family should always come first."

"Those who betray their own people will be severely punished. If someone betrays or harms their family, I will personally clean up their house."

"Apart from that, everything can be forgiven."

These words sounded rather cold, and Ye Rou and Fang Jing, being mothers, were naturally more emotional and couldn't help but worry.

Fang Dalong felt a chill run down his spine. Thinking about the possibility of being killed by his brother-in-law, he asked tremblingly, "Brother-in-law, am I considered family?"

"Of course you are, you are my second wife's younger brother."

"Husband, can you really bring yourself to hurt your own flesh and blood?" Ye Rou asked.

"If you can't bring yourself to do it, all your family members will have to die with you. You can't govern a large family without family rules."

"Of course, as the head of the family, I will set an example and will never have affairs with those sluts or have a bunch of illegitimate children. That would be the biggest trouble that destroys family unity."

Upon hearing Yang Ding's promise, Fang Jing nodded in agreement.

"Rou, my husband is right. Given his current behavior, there's a possibility that more younger sisters will come into the family. We need to set some rules."

Ye Rou nodded in agreement, "Alright, I, as the first wife, hereby decide. This will be the Yang family rule."

Yang Ding quickly took the hands of his two wives, feeling extremely pleased.

Surprisingly, they agreed so readily to continue recruiting wives.

As long as his wife is beautiful, talented, has a high social status, and meets his selection criteria, Yang Ding doesn't mind marrying several.

After all, he might live for hundreds of years, and he'd get tired of having only one or two wives.

Every woman has a different taste, appearance, figure, and personality. Trying new things can help you maintain your fighting spirit.

Fang Dalong followed behind, muttering to himself, "This kid has a first-grade cultivation level, yet he can manage women better than my dad."

"Yang Ding relies on his brains. Perhaps intelligence is also one of the elements of the universe. Otherwise, why would there be so many grandmasters, and why would a queen with no strength be allowed to manage the entire empire? Moreover, the leaders of the five great empires are all time-manipulators."

"Honey, do you think I should set some house rules?"

"You only have one wife, how many children can she have? Who are you going to set the household rules for?"

Given Fang Dalong's family background, he could marry two or three women, but it would be very shameful for his parents to keep subsidizing and supporting him. He was too proud to even consider it.

Upon arriving at the Imperial Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Ye Rou had just stepped inside when the receptionist came over to greet her.

"Instructor Ye, your sister has scheduled a call for 9 a.m. Sunday. Remember to pick her up on time."

"OK."

Ye Rou was a little surprised. She had just been thinking of asking her sister for advice when her sister called her.

After dropping off the children, Fang Dalong took his wife to work at the law enforcement team, while Yang Ding and the other two went to the weapons market to check the latest rankings as usual.

Because hunting outside the city was reopened last night, the harvest has increased again, but the casualty rate has also risen.

The first place team is Group 7 of Class 1, Grade 4, Superpower Academy. They suffered 3 casualties and currently have a total score of 7 million, plus 960,000.

The second-place team is Group 2 of Class 2, Grade 2, Superpower Academy. They suffered two casualties and currently have a total score of 640 million, plus 80.

The third place team is Group 3 of Class 1, Grade 4, Martial Arts Academy. They suffered 3 casualties and their current total score is 6.1 million, plus 1.2 million.

The fourth-ranked team is Group 1 of Class 3, Grade 1 of Martial Arts University. They suffered one injury or death, and their current total score is 609 million, +0.

"Class 3 of Martial Arts Academy has actually been squeezed out of the top three."

"Holy crap, Jiang Zhaolong went to the northwest last night and ran faster than a rabbit. I thought his uncle was going to help him cheat, but he failed miserably."

"It's said that they were robbed, and even their clothes were stripped off. Last time they went out of town to hang eggs, their pants were also pulled off."

"Is this really that funny?"

"The key issue is that someone died. How did this person die? It couldn't have been from stupidity, could it?"

"Ha ha!"

The top three, along with over fifty other team members, gathered at the beast crystal purchasing area, laughing exaggeratedly, as if they wanted everyone in the hall to know about Jiang Zhaolong's embarrassing incident.

Jiang Zhaolong and his teammates came in to check the latest rankings. Hearing these people mocking him like this, his already pained face began to twitch.

He didn't sleep a wink last night and was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

He'd practically plucked all his hair, but he still couldn't figure out who dared to steal his beast crystal.

The only thing that's certain is that there are two people on the other side.

One is a martial artist, the other is a spatial ability user.

"Brother Long, if your beast crystal was stolen by a student, you should at least use it for the rankings, right? We can't tell anything right now," Xiao Wu asked.

"Can't I sell it on the black market?"

His teammates' distrust was written all over their faces, while his opponents continued to mock him mercilessly.

"The key is that this guy was born to a stepmother, and he doesn't dare to ask his family for money. Now his teammates all call him Jiang Danlong."

"Haha, we hunt to make money, but we lose millions every time we hunt an egg dragon. Which parent would give that up?"

"Could it be that he embezzled the beast crystals and used them to buy gifts to please the old lady?"

"Ha ha……"

Jiang Zhaolong could no longer hold back and rushed over, intending to kick the other person to death.

"If you've got the guts, come out and fight me! What kind of skill is it to talk behind people's backs?"

The newly promoted third-place group leader is the principal's grandson, from the third largest family in Jiangling City. His cultivation level is also at the lower fourth rank, so he has nothing to fear.

"Who do you think you can easily defeat here? If you fight to the death, won't you, Jiang Danlong, be left penniless?"

"Yeah, Brother Long, go back and rest. Look, your face has turned green."

Jiang Zhaolong clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and his facial muscles trembled uncontrollably.

He glanced back at his indifferent teammates, finally unable to hold back any longer, bent over and spat out a mouthful of blood, slamming his fist heavily onto the floor.

"You bunch of poor bastards, I don't care about those beast crystals at all, why don't you believe me?"

Jiang Zhaolong scanned his surroundings with bloodshot eyes.

"I know you're watching me, thief. Come out, I'm going to kill you."

"I'm going to kill all the thieves."

Ye Rou immediately realized, "He's so angry he's losing his temper and his internal energy is flowing in reverse. If he's not treated, his cultivation might be damaged."

Yang Ding, however, pulled his wife aside and said coldly, "Ignore him. Perhaps he can create a new way to die."

Jiang Zhaolong was violent and had a terrible temper; Yang Ding planned to anger him to death.

Killing someone with force is not the highest level; destroying their spirit is the ultimate goal.

Ye Rou nodded. "Okay, let him die. Let's go quickly, lest we be accused of being an instructor who didn't help someone in distress."

Jiang Zhaolong killed Mao Jian's brother by smashing him with a beast crystal, and he also wanted to kill Mao Jian's mother to vent his anger. Yang Ding told both of these things on the way here.

The three of them went straight back to school, and Fang Jing couldn't help but ask, "Honey, when are you planning to register the beast crystals for sale?"

"I'm waiting for a large-scale hunting operation, to catch a pound or two before registering."

Both wives were shocked.

"A pound or two? Honey, do you have no concept of that? Everyone else uses a gram or two!"

"That must be tens of millions!"

"The rankings are based on groups, and I estimate that half of them will be allocated, which should be around 20 to 30 million."

"That much money?"

It should be noted that Ye Rou and Ye Ke already have high incomes, but they have only saved three or four million so far.

Her Soul-Severing Spear, the Dragonscale Horse her sister bought in the North, the Ironblood Bow, and the Twin Swords, all added up to a loan of five or six million.

"Isn't it good to have more money? When we get to the North, we can have better facilities and a better life," Yang Ding said with a smile.

"But it's just a goal right now; we don't know if we can succeed."
