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

"My dear son-in-law, I've prepared a big gift for you this time. Please come in."

"What gift is it?"

"You'll see once you get inside. What's so interesting about this run-down lake?"

It took Zhou Liren a full third-grade strength to drag Yang Ding into the villa; he was utterly panicked and weak.

His eldest illegitimate daughter, Qin Xiangyu, was sitting on the sofa, wearing a wine-red dress, her breasts voluptuous, gazing at Yang Ding with deep affection, her eyes almost drooling.

If she had known earlier that Yang Ding would achieve such a high status, she wouldn't have sent that perverted Huang Azi to make contact; she would have done it herself.

She has a stunning figure, an alluring face, and is flexible and gentle; she could definitely seduce this young man perfectly without any problem.

Unfortunately, life doesn't offer "what ifs," and she wasn't a time-manipulation expert.

Seeing Zhou Ruoxi with her big belly, Qin Xiangyu felt even more distressed.

Illegitimate children have forever lost the chance to become legal children.

Fang Jing has already become the city lord, so Zhou Ruoxi is determined to become the city lord of Jiangling.

Zhou Ruoxi didn't get along with her, and seeing this slutty woman staring at her husband, she asked, "Dad, why is she here too?"

"She is the gift I gave to my son-in-law."

"Dad!" Zhou Ruoxi exclaimed anxiously, "You think you can just give it away like that?"

"Did you ask me? Did you ask the Queen? Did you ask Ye Rou?"

"Illegitimate children have no right to enter our Yang family."

Zhou Ruoxi's rapid-fire questions vividly revealed the conflicts between her children.

Once a man reaches the pinnacle of power, he will inevitably attract many beautiful women, with a plethora of high-quality women flocking to him.

Women who were more than a match for Yang Ding in the past can now only watch helplessly as they have to undergo strict screening to enter the Yang family.

"Xiao Qi, don't be in such a hurry. What I mean is to hand over the Stinger organization, which is headed by Xiang Yu, to our son-in-law. He has just married the Queen and become the Regent. In the future, he will go to the Northern Territory to conquer the four great empires and unify the Blue Star. How can he manage without an intelligence agency?"

"Oh, I see."

Zhou Ruoxi was immediately relieved.

But Yang Ding understood his father-in-law's cunning; the entire management of the Stinger were his illegitimate children, and they were definitely on his side.

"Father-in-law, that's a great suggestion. I'm sure there's a Stinger branch in the North too."

"Haha!" Zhou Liren stroked his stubble and laughed loudly, "The only martial arts grandmaster who can defeat me is Xiong Lao Er from the Northern Border City. How could I not keep an eye on their movements? I have planted at least a hundred spies in the Northern Border, both in the city and the front-line barracks. After you take over, Xiangyu and Aqing will give you the list."

Qin Xiangyu quickly smiled and said, "If the Regent needs me, I can go to the Northern Border with him. I'm quite familiar with that place."

"No need, no need, my sister knows it better," Ye Rou quickly said.

"That's not necessarily true," Qin Xiangyu said with a smile.

Ye Ke had been listening quietly the whole time. After observing Qin Xiangyu for a while, she asked, "Did you serve in the Night Patrol Legion?"

Qin Xiangyu was slightly taken aback. "How did you know?"

"I'm guessing. The regular army from the North wouldn't be able to come back without being seriously injured, and you don't look like you've been seriously injured."

"As expected of Professor Zeng's daughter, she's so smart. I bet I'm still on the night watchman's deserter list," Qin Xiangyu said with a smile.

As long as she and Huang Aqing don't leave Jiangling City, no one can do anything to them.

Ye Ke looked at Ye Rou and said, "She does know the Northern Territory better than I do, especially outside the city. The night patrols mainly investigate the tracks of strange beasts outside the city, which is a life-or-death situation."

Ye Rou still looked unwilling.

Qin Xiangyu is too seductive and charming. If she used her alluring skills every day, no man in the world could resist her.

The fatty meat around their mouths was so easy to eat.

"We'll see how things go later. I appreciate my father-in-law's kindness. I'll go take over the Stinger organization after lunch."

Zhou Liren quickly pulled Yang Ding into the restaurant and made him sit next to him, treating him even better than his own son.

Zhou Ruoxi's brothers all stepped aside.

"My dear son-in-law, Poison Sting is the culmination of my life's work, and I've entrusted it all to you. Have I been a good father-in-law?"

Yang Ding picked up the wine bottle, poured wine for his father-in-law, and said with a smile, "If the full score is 100, then my father-in-law has at least scored 25 points, which has already moved your son-in-law very much."

Zhou Liren's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately became anxious.

"Only 25 points? Do you know that the Stinger Organization is the most powerful spy organization in the entire Jinglong?"

Yang Ding nodded firmly, "Yes, I know, but it's still 25 points."

"So, how well did your father-in-law, Fang Hongbo, perform?"

"He gets 100 points."

"Why should he? What did he give you?"

Zhou Liren was so angry that smoke was coming out of his nose.

"My second father-in-law is an upright man. He is absolutely cooperative with my and Sister Jing's work and gives his all. When I asked him to give up his position as general and manage the East China Sea Law Enforcement Bureau, he accepted without saying a word. Actually, you know that he was the first candidate for the position of vice commander of the East China Sea Navy."

"this one?"

"Yes, the second father-in-law has given everything he could, but the third father-in-law still has 75 points to work on."

"Where...where's the 75 points?"

Zhou Liren stammered and asked, feeling somewhat withdrawn after being teased by Yang Ding.

"35 points are for emulating Donghai City and reforming the marriage system. This will eventually be rolled out globally. As my third father-in-law, it's not too much to ask that I take the initiative to set an example, is it?"

Zhou Liren, being an old fox, had actually thought this through.

Yesterday, he married all the talented, unmarried girls from Jiangling University to be his daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law.

He originally wanted to marry someone else, but he gave up because he was afraid Zhou Ruoxi would say something unpleasant.

"Since it's only a matter of time, let's carry it out. Everything is to support our son-in-law, just don't drain my coffers."

Yang Ding understood the implication of Zhou Liren's words.

But my father-in-law has already made such a big concession; if we reveal it all at once, he might turn against us.

"35 plus 25 equals 60 points. The third father-in-law is already a passing father-in-law, which is quite remarkable."

"That's just passing? What about the other 40 points?"

"No rush, let's promote the new marriage system first," Yang Ding said with a smile.

Yang Ding planned to wait until the first two things were settled before emptying his father-in-law's pockets.

In any case, these 100 billion cultivation resources will definitely have to be given up, as the number of awakened humans is increasing and cultivation resources are already insufficient.

After finishing her meal, Qin Xiangyu gracefully wiped her mouth and got up to pour tea for Yang Ding.

She understood men's hearts very well, and deliberately turned her neckline towards Yang Ding, letting out a fragrant breeze.

Mu Qingyao rolled her eyes. "Tch, you think you're the only one who's got it? I'm older than you."

Ye Rou was even more unconvinced, "Hmph, my husband doesn't like big ones."

Qin Xiangyu whispered profanities in Yang Ding's ear, "Regent, when do you plan to hand over the reins?"

"Let's go after we finish eating."

"Okay, Aqing and the others are already waiting over there."

Huang Azi's fate is unknown, but to this day, neither Zhou Liren nor Qin Xiangyu has mentioned her name.

Zhou Liren just wanted to get rid of this troublesome son-in-law as soon as possible.

"It's better to go early, they'll be staying at Gangneung University for a few days afterward."
