This fat, big-eared, dark-skinned middle-aged man is none other than the head of the Zhao family, the first family on the border—Zhao Ting!

All we can say is that his bloodline is so powerful that his son looks almost exactly like him.

"In the past, no matter how much he played around, he would come back in three days at most. Even if he didn't come back, he would still inform his family. But now, seven or eight days have passed. What on earth is this rebellious son doing?"

Zhao Ting held two stone galls in his hands, and the friction between the stone galls made a sharp collision sound, a bit like the sound of human teeth grinding.

At this moment, a man came in hurriedly from outside the door. As soon as he came in, he prostrated himself on the ground, his buttocks raised, and prostrated himself: "Screaming master."

Zhao Ting glanced at him and said calmly, "No need to be polite. Have you found Zhao Zhong's whereabouts?"

The man quickly said, "Reporting to the master, no, but found some clues before Master Zhong disappeared."

"The last time he appeared, someone saw him entering Zhang's Pawnshop. The person in charge of Zhang's Pawnshop is a woman named Qin Tingyu, and this Qin Tingyu is the first wife of Zhang Tao, the governor of Mancheng."

Having said this, the servant stopped talking and secretly looked up to observe Zhao Ting's reaction.

Zhao Ting's face suddenly darkened, and he snorted coldly, "This rebellious son is playing with other people's women again, right? He is becoming more and more lawless now, and he even fell in love with the woman of the governor of Mancheng!"

"And then what? Did this woman give in? Where is he playing with this woman now?"

Although Zhao Ting learned that Qin Tingyu was the first wife of the governor of Mancheng, he did not care much about it.

He was just the governor of Mancheng, not a big shot. Even though his son played with his woman, it was not a big deal.

Even if Zhang Tao knew about it, it wouldn't matter. The Zhao family would at most criticize Zhao Zhong and then give Zhang Tao some compensation.

If Zhang Tao is sensible, he will wear the green hat obediently and be a cuckold properly. In this way, he can hold the position of the governor of Mancheng safely.

If you are ignorant and insist on seeking justice for yourself, you will be courting death.

After all, even if this matter was brought to the attention of the King of Zhenxi, he would definitely help the Zhao family instead of Zhang Tao.

If the matter gets out of hand, Zhang Tao will lose his job.

Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Tao can only be a cuckold.

Therefore, Zhao Ting didn't care at all about his son playing with the prefect's wife.

There's nothing I can do about it, I'm powerful and influential, that's how powerful I am.

"In reply to the master, we don't know where Master Zhong is now with this woman named Qin Tingyu. After Master Zhong entered Zhang's Pawnshop, he never came out again. Zhang's Pawnshop has also been closed recently. Everyone is missing. And, as far as I know, all the valuables in the pawnshop have been taken away."

The servant said honestly.

"What did you say?"

As soon as Zhao Ting heard it, he knew something must have happened!

If it's just the pawnshop that's closed, that's no big deal. It's normal to close down when something happens.

However, if all the valuables are taken away, that would be a big problem.

"Where are the servants in the pawnshop?" Zhao Ting asked immediately.

"The servants are also missing."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ting's face darkened instantly.

Zhao Zhong disappeared in the pawnshop, and now, the pawnshop owner Qin Tingyu is nowhere to be found, the servants have also disappeared, and the valuable goods are also gone.

what does that mean?

It means running away!

"Check it for me immediately!"

Zhao Ting had a bad feeling instantly. "Also, send someone to Mancheng to find Zhang Tao and ask him about the whereabouts of his wife Qin Tingyu! If Qin Tingyu is here, bring her back immediately! If Zhang Tao says he doesn't know where Qin Tingyu is, then bring Zhang Tao back and I will interrogate him personally!"

"yes!"

He is a prefect, but in Zhao Ting's eyes, he is not worth mentioning at all. He can arrest him whenever he wants. This shows the status of the Zhao family in the entire border!

Soon, the Zhao family sent two groups of people, one to investigate Zhao Zhong's whereabouts in Hucheng.

The other group went to the Barbarian City!

at the same time.

Hundreds of miles away from the Barbarian City, there is a rolling mountain range.

Among them, there is a high mountain that is covered with snow all year round and never melts!

Halfway up the mountain, inside a large hall.

"What's going on? The deadline has come. A total of twenty-four deacons were sent out to look for spiritual roots. Twenty-three of them have returned. Why hasn't Fang Han returned yet?"

A majestic voice was heard in the hall.

This is the Tianshan Sect!

Now, because Fang Han has not returned yet, there are no people from Mancheng among the selected menial disciples!

Moreover, Fang Han himself has not returned yet, so something must have gone wrong!

"Where did Fang Han go?"

That majestic voice sounded again behind him!

"Reporting to the elder, Deacon Fang went to the Barbarian City!"

"Mancheng? Humph! Mancheng is only a few hundred miles away from our Tianshan Sect. It takes so long, even if we have to crawl back!"

The majestic voice revealed a strong sense of dissatisfaction.

"Elder, has something happened to Deacon Fang?"

Immediately, someone asked cautiously.

"Something happened? Humph! At the border, is there anyone who dares to touch the people of my Tianshan Sect?"

The elder spoke very conceitedly.

It’s not that I’m arrogant, but the Tianshan Sect does have the qualifications to say such things!

"But then again, Fang Han's delay in coming back is indeed a problem. Li Mo, take a few people and go to Barbarian City in person."

No matter how conceited one is, one still has to face reality, the elder gave the order immediately.

"yes!"

A young man immediately stood up and clasped his hands together, "Disciple will definitely fulfill the mission!"

Barbarian city.

Chen Xuan was a little depressed.

Because seven whole days have passed, and except for Xu Ruolan, the other women's favorability towards him has not increased at all.

The reason why Xu Ruolan's favorability towards him increased was also because of the Whip.

If there was no Whip for Controlling Women, even Xu Ruolan's favorability towards him would not have increased.

Fortunately, over the past four days, the Royal Whip contributed five points of favorability every day, resulting in Xu Ruolan's favorability towards Chen Xuan almost reaching one hundred points!

"Tomorrow, Sister Xu's favorability towards me will reach 100. I wonder what kind of reward I will get."

Chen Xuan suddenly felt a little longing.

"But speaking of which, the favorability scores of the beauties towards me are very unbalanced right now! The highest is almost 100 points, while the lowest is less than 60 points. Is there any way to increase the favorability scores as quickly as possible? It's really a headache."

Chen Xuan rubbed his temple.

"Master Chen, this is not good!"

Just then, Liu Jinyu's voice came in hurriedly.
