At a long table in the Li Family hall, the Li Family patriarch sat at the head of the table, with Li Baiqing sitting next to him. Below them, sitting around him, were the direct descendants of the Li Family, those of high status and importance.
At this moment, the patriarch of the Li Family spoke with a serious expression, "Now that inheritor of the Great Qin Legacy has revealed his sharp fangs and claws. This revelation is not insignificant; it will stir up a storm throughout the world."
"Now all the forces are discussing the matter of this successor of the Great Qin Legacy. Our Li Family should also be prepared. After all, the threat of the Great Qin is too great. Even the four great families of Huaxia have to be on high alert. Our Great Tang, whose lineage is slightly weaker, will be no exception. Now, tell me your opinions."
The middle-aged man sitting next to Li Baiqing was the head of another branch of the Li Family. However, because Li Baiqing had obtained the Great Tang, the other branches could only acknowledge Li Baiqing's branch as their master and submit to them.
At this moment, recalling the scene, his face was still somewhat pale. As the head of another branch of the Li Family, his bloodline was absolutely pure and he also possessed a great deal of Great Tang fortune. Therefore, he could hear the domineering dragon roar of the fortune dragon within Zhao Fu's body.
When he heard that dragon's roar, he felt as if a ferocious Black Dragon, tens of thousands of meters long, stood before him. Its immense and terrifying aura made his very soul tremble. Therefore, he spoke, "I believe we should be on good terms with the inheritor of the Great Qin Legacy, and not become his enemy!"
The others, whose bloodlines were pure, also turned pale upon hearing the dragon's roar. They knew that the terrifying power was beyond their ability to contend with. Therefore, they nodded in agreement with what the previous person had said.
The somewhat cowardly behavior of these men immediately displeased the Li Family patriarch, who angrily said, "Look at your spineless appearance! We are, after all, the legitimate successors of the Great Tang Empire, once known as the Celestial Empire. Are we afraid of a Great Qin without the support of the Ying Family?"
Hearing this, the others mustered some courage and confidence, but they still couldn't erase the impact of the terrifying dragon's roar.
At this moment, Li Baiqing smiled slightly, stepped forward, and spoke, "I believe that although the Great Qin is in great danger, it is not yet time to distinguish friend from foe. The most important thing now is to upgrade advanced villages into towns, preferably in front of the top four families. Although 70% of the fortune of the Huaxia people is tilted towards the Great Qin, 30% still remains."
"This 30% of the fortune may seem small, but it's still a huge amount. It's reserved for the other inheritors of the Huaxia. This time, our Li Family absolutely cannot let go of this remaining fortune."
Those present nodded in agreement with Li Baiqing's words.
Then, the conversation continued about the Great Qin, and one of them said, "I think that mysterious inheritor of the Great Qin Legacy must have some unpleasantness with the Ying Family. The Ying Family are frantic but still haven't found him, and even with such enormous resources and benefits, he hasn't chosen to join the Ying Family."
"I think we should win over this Great Qin Legacy. The Ying Family openly cooperated with the Wu Family, completely disregarding our Li Family."
This proposal was supported by many, but the key issue was that there was absolutely no information about the successor of the Great Qin Legacy. No one knew who he was, let alone how to win him over.
After a detailed discussion, the Li Family members finally concluded the meeting. After everyone left, only the Li Family patriarch and Li Baiqing remained in the room.
At this moment, the old master of the Li Family was not so firm, because he had also heard the terrifying dragon roar. His expression was serious, and he sighed, "Qing'er! Great Qin can now be said to have occupied the top position in Huaxia, and its danger far exceeds that of others. It may be the biggest obstacle in front of you. You must not relax for a moment."
Li Baiqing nodded seriously and said, "I understand, Grandpa!"
The old man of the Li Family also put aside his heavy mood and showed a kind smile. He then chatted with Li Baiqing for a few more words before Li Baiqing left to deal with other matters.
Watching Li Baiqing's departing figure, the old master of the Li Family was still satisfied with his grandson Li Baiqing's talent and ability, and had no regrets. He only wished to see him regain the throne in his lifetime.
As for all the obstacles in his path, thinking of this, the Li Family patriarch's eyes turned cold. "Butler! Go and find that inheritor of the Great Qin Legacy at all costs."
The butler outside the door entered the room, nodded, and then left.
The focus shifted to the almost frantic Ying Family. After so long, using methods that were practically digging three feet into the ground, they still hadn't found the inheritor of the Great Qin Legacy.
If you don't let them know, they'll still search slowly. But this mysterious inheritor of the Great Qin Legacy is causing more and more trouble than ever before. Since the last inheritance of fortune, the Ying Family has received attention from all of Huaxia. Now, he's even more so, receiving attention from the whole world. It's estimated that there are at least several hundred spies from various regions and countries hiding outside the Ying Family's territory.
The person who inherited their ancestral legacy received a boost in fortune from the Huaxia nation, bringing them worldwide attention. However, it was also somewhat embarrassing, as this inheritor did not join the Ying Family.
Consider this: he inherited the Great Qin Legacy but didn't join the Ying Family with legitimate bloodlines, and now he's causing such a commotion—isn't this a huge slap in the face?
Regarding this inheritor of the Great Qin Legacy, the Ying Family clans admitted that they had some malicious intentions before, wanting to find this inheritor and then use some method to seize the ancestral inheritance.
But things are different now, because this successor of the Great Qin Legacy did not rely on anyone's help. He single-handedly elevated the Great Qin to a position of global prominence, which fully demonstrates his extraordinary abilities.
With his current abilities, he absolutely surpasses all of the Ying Family. Although they are somewhat dissatisfied with his non-bloodline, the Ying Family are genuinely willing to submit to this successor when they think about how he can lead the Great Qin to restore its former glory.
Even so, they were almost frantic with worry, but the Great Qin Legacy inheritor still wouldn't come out. Several of the Ying Family even had the urge to kneel down and beg him to appear. If it weren't for the humiliation, and with the others holding them back, they probably would have done so already.
The only aura that the Great Qin Legacy is currently revealing is that, based on the direction in which the fortune gathers, it can be deduced that this inheritor is located in the northern part of the Central Continent.
However, the northern part of the Central Continent is not just any ordinary place. In the Apocalypse World, a single region is larger than a province in the real world. The entire north has thousands of regions, and its area is five times the size of the real Earth. Although there is a direction, it is still like looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, the northern part of the Central Continent has undoubtedly become a taboo area for all forces, because everyone knows that something terrifying exists in that direction.
