"Li Xiaotian. No, Grandpa Li! King Li! Please spare me, please!"
"I was wrong. I know I was wrong. I'm willing to give all of the Wang family's fortune, just spare my life!"
Wang Longtao knelt on the ground, his voice trembling. He was so terrified that he didn't even dare to look up at Li Xiaotian.
Li Xiaotian looked indifferently at Wang Longtao, who kept kowtowing, his face expressionless. He turned his head to look at Wang Xing, who was hanging from the main gate.
When Wang Xing saw Li Xiaotian turn around, he was so scared that he lost control of his bowels and urine.
"Li Xiaotian, I was wrong, I confess. I confess! I was deceived, it was the Ye family who tricked me. I didn't know the truth!"
Wang Xing begged for mercy, his body trembling. He had always thought that their Wang family was the sky over Jiangcheng. Even a formidable dragon entering Jiangcheng had to show them respect.
But now, he realized how naive he had been.
Their Wang family was nothing in Li Xiaotian's eyes.
"Hmph!"
Li Xiaotian sneered, glancing indifferently at Wang Longtao and his son, then gave an order.
"Break their limbs and let them beg for a living in Jiangcheng for the rest of their lives. From now on, they are forbidden to leave Jiangcheng!"
"Yes!" Long Yi and the others responded in unison.
Wang Longtao and his son's faces turned even more terrified. To be forced to beg in Jiangcheng, where their Wang family had offended so many people, if they were to have their limbs broken, Jiangcheng would be more terrifying than hell to them.
But even knowing the consequences, Wang Longtao and his son lacked the courage to commit suicide. Perhaps, they still held onto some faint hope.
At the same time, all the heads of the prominent families in Jiangcheng were shocked. What had happened outside the Ye family's gate was quickly learned by them.
Their faces turned pale, and cold sweat poured down their brows.
The Wang family was annihilated!
The Governor of Jiangnan was respectful towards Li Xiaotian!
Was this the live-in son-in-law from back then? Was this the good-for-nothing that everyone could bully?
But then, they all snapped back to reality. Thinking of what the Dragon King Hall had announced earlier, they each ordered their family members.
"Quick! Find out everyone who has bullied Ye Qingmei and her daughter. Those who deserve to be killed, kill them. Those who deserve to have their hands broken, break their hands. Hurry and kneel at the Ye family's door to beg for forgiveness!"
"Quick! Everyone in the family, kneel at the Ye family's door to beg for forgiveness!"
They didn't dare to imagine what kind of background Li Xiaotian possessed. He could destroy the Wang family with just a word. What were they, these small families, but ants that could vanish with a single word from Li Xiaotian?
In an instant, the areas of Jiangcheng became bustling with noise, and many luxury cars headed towards the Ye family's manor.
Even some families, who had not bullied the Ye mother and daughter, but had someone in their family who had bullied Li Xiaotian three years ago, rushed to the Ye family to beg for forgiveness without stopping.
Within half an hour, the entire street outside the Ye family was filled with kneeling crowds.
What shocked many of the family members was that the person kneeling at the very front was their city lord of Jiangcheng!
Instantly, many people with weak wills fainted.
The scene outside the Ye family also reached Li Xiaotian's ears. Li Xiaotian merely sneered, considering it a mercy for them.
"Long Yi, tell Jiang Hai to warn these people that everything that happened today must not be leaked! If anyone leaks it, I won't find anyone else, only him!"
Li Xiaotian said with a frown. He suddenly remembered that he would be accompanying Ye Qingmei and her daughter in the future. If they were to know about these matters, would their opinion of him change?
Thinking of this, Li Xiaotian gasped in relief. Fortunately, he reacted in time. If Ye Qingmei were to know what he had done, she might think he was a bloodthirsty devil.
Moreover, his daughter, Tiantian, was still a child. He needed to re-establish his image as a father. He absolutely could not let Tiantian have any negative impression of him.
After instructing Long Yi, Li Xiaotian felt it wasn't enough. He called all the commanders of the Dragon King Hall to the main hall and instructed them one by one to speak carefully and not expose his identity.
Looking at Li Xiaotian's solemn expression, the commanders of the Dragon King Hall suppressed their laughter. This was the first time they had seen their King so serious.
Finally, Li Xiaotian ordered the Dragon King Hall army at the border to retreat, and also ordered the Dragon King Hall personnel within the Qin Kingdom to withdraw, leaving only Long Yi and a guard of honor by his side.
The Great Qin Kingdom had given him enough face this time. Li Xiaotian was not an unreasonable person. His anger had already been vented, so there was no need to continue intimidating the Qin Kingdom.
After making sure everything was in order, Li Xiaotian changed his clothes before going to see Ye Qingmei and her daughter.
As soon as he entered the room, he heard the joyful laughter of the mother and daughter. Li Xiaotian couldn't help but feel happy.
However, as soon as he entered, Ye Qingmei and her daughter immediately fell silent. Tiantian hid in Ye Qingmei's arms, not daring to look up at Li Xiaotian.
Seeing this, Li Xiaotian couldn't help but smile bitterly. His little daughter didn't recognize him! What should he do?
"Li Xiaotian, about the Wang family." Ye Qingmei asked. She understood her daughter's behavior of not recognizing Li Xiaotian, but at this moment, she was more concerned about the Wang family.
"It's already resolved. I'm friends with Jiang Hai, the Governor of Jiangnan, and he helped resolve it. The Wang family has relocated north as a whole."
Li Xiaotian replied. This was the excuse he had prepared earlier. If he had said the Wang family was annihilated, Ye Qingmei might have been frightened.
"That's good. That's good." Ye Qingmei breathed a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Li Xiaotian stared intently at his little daughter, feeling anxious. His daughter had finally woken up, and he wanted to hold her.
Seeing this, Ye Qingmei felt like laughing. She had held immense hatred for Li Xiaotian in her heart before, but after this incident, not much of that hatred remained, nor did she have much affection.
After all, Li Xiaotian had abandoned them for three years. Even the deepest feelings would have faded significantly during this time.
However, Tiantian was Li Xiaotian's daughter after all, and she wanted her daughter to have a complete childhood.
She knew very well that ever since Tiantian could remember, she had always been asking for her dad.
"Tiantian, he is your dad. He saved Mommy and you this time." Ye Qingmei said softly.
Li Xiaotian's eyes flashed with gratitude, and then he stared intently at Tiantian.
"Tiantian, Daddy is bad, Daddy is sorry to you and Mommy. Can you give Daddy a chance to make amends?"
"Tiantian doesn't have a daddy! Tiantian only has Mommy! Daddy wasn't here when Tiantian was born, Daddy wasn't here when Tiantian was bullied by other children, and Daddy still wasn't here when Tiantian wanted candy."
"Tiantian doesn't want Daddy! Bad Daddy!"
The little girl's sobbing voice echoed from Ye Qingmei's arms, and then her crying gradually intensified.
Ye Qingmei glared at Li Xiaotian and quickly started to coax her daughter.
Li Xiaotian felt bitter and heartbroken. He slowly retreated. Seeing Long Yi at the doorway, he grabbed him.
"Quick! Go buy all sorts of candies that children love on the market, and toys too! Anything that children like, buy it all for me!"
