In the fantasy world, all the people I met were beauties.

Chapter 243: My dear son-in-law, you are really too polite

The beaded curtain in the hall swayed slightly, and the crying of the three women gradually stopped.

Liu Yizi wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, while Fu Sixuan and her sister tidied up their slightly messy hair.

The three of them still had a hint of red at the corners of their eyes, just like rain hitting a crabapple tree, which was quite charming.

Li Zimo sipped tea, his eyes moving between the three people.

Liu Yizi's ears burned when he looked at her, but the Fu sisters glanced at her coquettishly, which was three times sweeter than the candied fruit in the glass cup on the table.

The sound of footsteps outside the corridor gradually approached, mixed with Wu Qingfeng's hearty laughter.

Soon, footsteps and conversations were heard outside the hall.

"Brother Fu" and "Brother Wu" were called affectionately, and Fu Heng's face was full of smiles.

As a ninth-rank warrior, how could he have ever thought that he could be on friendly terms with the city lord who had the cultivation level of a Martial King?

At this moment, he held his back straight as he led the way, and he became more and more satisfied with Li Zimo, his son-in-law.

Hall entrance.

"Brother Wu, please come in."

Before Fu Heng finished speaking, Li Zimo had already put down his teacup and stood up.

Although no words were spoken, Wu Qingfeng was flattered by this gesture.

"Lord Wu is well."

Liu Yizi led her daughters in bowing.

Wu Qingfeng hurriedly supported him: "No way!"

Then he straightened his clothes and bowed deeply to Li Zimo, his tone respectful and solemn:

"Excuse me, Senior, your request has been completed.

After investigation, it was found that the housekeeper of the Fu Mansion was indeed bribed by the Zhao family and secretly colluded with Zhao Wuchang to set up a trap to frame Brother Fu Heng.

Now there is all the evidence - the housekeeper has signed and sealed it, and Zhao Wuchang has confessed to the crime.

All 106 members of the Zhao family have been taken into custody and imprisoned.

As he spoke, he took out a shimmering photo stone from his sleeve and presented it with both hands:

“To demonstrate justice, I have not only posted the indictments at the four city gates and in front of the martial arts academy, but I have also used soul-searching techniques to record the entire story of their crimes.

The people in the city can all check it out. Now that Brother Fu Heng’s reputation has been restored, people on the streets are talking about punishing the Zhao family severely.

He hesitated for a moment and added:

"All of the Zhao family's assets have been seized, and the stolen money and property are being counted. I wonder if the senior has any special instructions for the handling of the Zhao family? I will do my best to follow them."

Fu Heng and Liu Yizi couldn't help but smile at each other when they heard that their grievances had been redressed.

The gate of the mansion has been splashed with filth these days, and the neighbors have been pointing and talking about it. All these resentments can finally be swept away.

"City Lord Wu, you did a great job on this matter."

Li Zimo nodded slightly, and his fingertips tapped the teacup, making a clear sound.

He turned to look at Fu Heng: "Father-in-law, what do you think about the treatment of the Zhao family?"

Fu Heng's expression gradually darkened, and the scene of drinking muddy wine with Zhao Wuchang in the alley appeared before his eyes.

After a long time, he sighed:

"Brother Wu, we will deal with them according to the law. If his family members are innocent, we hope they will be given a break."

Wu Qingfeng broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this - he had just become friends with his senior father-in-law!

Just as he was panicking, he heard Li Zimo's gentle voice: "City Lord Wu, there's no need to be so formal. Let's discuss our own affairs. From now on, you can just call me Taoist friend."

"Thank you so much for your understanding!"

Wu Qingfeng felt relieved and hurriedly bowed to Fu Heng:

"Don't worry, Brother Fu, this matter will be handled properly. I would also like to congratulate you on your promotion to the position of Commander of the Divine Martial Guard."

Upon hearing this, Fu Heng's eyes flashed, and he immediately clasped his fists and said solemnly:

"Thank you for your support, brother. I will do my best to live up to your trust!"

Wu Qingfeng stroked his beard and nodded, then turned to Li Zimo and asked respectfully:

"Does Fellow Daoist Li have any other instructions?"

"It's nothing important." Li Zimo said calmly.

"Then I will take my leave first."

Wu Qingfeng was about to turn around when he saw Li Zimo suddenly raise his hand:

"Wait a minute."

He just waved his sleeves lightly, and a streak of light flashed across the air.

Wu Qingfeng instinctively reached out and found a pill the size of a longan lying in his palm.

The body of the pill is as smooth as jade, with five golden patterns coiled around it, emitting a refreshing medicinal fragrance.

"Fifth-level...level-breaking pill?! And it even has pill patterns?!"

Wu Qingfeng's pupils suddenly shrank, and his hands holding the pill trembled slightly.

For this kind of elixir, the main ingredient "Xuan Tian Qing Teng" alone is worth hundreds of millions of spirit stones, not to mention the fee of a fifth-level alchemist required for refining it.

He took a deep breath and bowed solemnly:

"I will never forget the generous gift from my fellow Daoist friend!"

Li Zimo just nodded calmly: "Go ahead."

Wu Qingfeng bowed again and left. The tired look on his face when he came was gone, replaced by an unconcealable joy.

He walked out of the door with light steps, and even his back showed a bit of excitement.

Fu Heng looked at Wu Qingfeng's receding figure and came back to his senses after a while:

"My dear son-in-law, that pill just now... could it be a fifth-level breakthrough pill?"

Seeing Li Zimo nod, Fu Heng immediately beat his chest and stamped his feet:

"How foolish! This pill is priceless, even the powerful Martial King would covet it. How could you give it away so easily?

What's more, you and my daughter are both Martial Kings, and you need a fifth-level breakthrough pill! Alas! "

"Father-in-law, I have plenty of these rank-breaking pills, so there's no need to worry about it."

Li Zimo chuckled, took out a storage ring and handed it to his father-in-law.

"This storage ring contains a few small gifts. Two local-level top-grade techniques have been specially selected for the two elders, as well as breakthrough pills of various levels, as well as some spirit stones, weapons, and basic techniques for the cultivation of the younger generation in the mansion."

Hearing this, Fu Heng happily took the storage ring with both hands. The moment his spiritual sense probed into it, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Inside the ring, millions of high-quality spirit stones were piled up like a small mountain, radiating brilliant light.

Several bottles of sixth-level breakthrough pills were quietly displayed, with pill patterns flowing;

There is also a jade bottle filled with thousand-year-old magical milk, which is bright and shining.

He hurriedly withdrew his consciousness and handed the ring to Liu Yizi beside him with trembling hands:

"My dear son-in-law, you are so kind... Madam, please put it away quickly..."

Liu Yizi took it with doubt, and after a quick glance with her spiritual sense, her mouth opened slightly, and even her breathing stopped.

She stroked her violently heaving chest, her voice changing tone:

“How does this…how does this make…”

Turning to look at her two daughters, she suddenly raised her eyebrows and grabbed Fu Heng's sleeve:

"You old fool! Xuan'er and Rui'er need these training resources for their cultivation. How can you, a ninth-level warrior, accept such a generous gift?"

Fu Heng's face flushed immediately, and he shrank his neck and dared not look up, not even looking in the direction of his two daughters, just like a child who had done something wrong.

Liu Yizi walked lightly, holding the storage ring and coming to Li Zimo.

She handed the ring out gently, her eyes as gentle as water:

"Zimo, we appreciate your kindness.

Just leave some ordinary skills and spirit stones, and keep the rare things for yourselves.

Your father-in-law and I have average talent, only at the lower level of the Xuan grade, and that's the limit of our abilities in this life.

Giving us these cultivation resources is a waste of natural resources..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt warmth on his fingertips.

Li Zimo calmly held her soft hand, gently rubbing his fingertips on her palm, with a smile in his eyes:

"Mother-in-law, you're worrying too much. These are just ordinary things in my son-in-law's family. Xuan'er and Rui'er have other resources prepared for their cultivation, so they won't be short of anything."

Seeing this, the Fu Sixuan sisters immediately held their mother's arms on the left and right.

One of them rested his head on her shoulder, and the other gently shook her arm:

"Just accept it, mother. My husband has many treasures."

Liu Yizi was suddenly in a dilemma.

Her hands were played with by her son-in-law, and her arms were entangled by her daughter. She was so embarrassed that her ears turned red.

She gritted her teeth secretly: This little bastard, how dare he tease his elders like this...

Humph, since you don’t feel sorry for them, I’ll take all these things!

"Then...it's up to you then."

She responded with forced calmness, and glared at Li Zimo with a reproachful look.
