Chapter 189: A Titled Douluo-Level Subordinate?

"Alright, Father, let's not ask too many questions for now. Let's arrange rooms for Zhao Ming and his companions, and then prepare lunch," Zhu Zhuyun said softly, glancing at Zhu Zihao.

"Yes, of course." Zhu Zihao nodded quickly, realizing they were still at the testing platform.

"Zhuyun, you and Zhuqing should help arrange rooms for Mr. Zhao and this lady," Zhu Zihao said with a smile. For years, due to the special circumstances of their family, Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing hadn't shown each other much warmth. But now, since Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai were no longer connected, they could finally return to being close sisters.

He felt relieved looking at his two daughters, seeing them bond once again. With Zhao Ming, a young man of such immense talent as their son-in-law, and his daughters no longer at odds, they could be a family again. As their father, he could finally lay down the burden in his heart.

All of this was thanks to Zhao Ming.

At that moment, Zhu Zihao looked at Zhao Ming with a glimmer of gratitude in his eyes.

"Zhao Ming, I'll head off now." Holding onto Zhao Ming's arm, Zhu Zhuqing looked at him with eyes as gentle as autumn water.

"Alright, go ahead," Zhao Ming said with a smile, gently brushing her soft hair. He could see the rare joy and happiness in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes.

Zhu Zhuqing had always been a gentle and pure girl, but the situation between the Zhu and Dai families had caused her to endure hardships no girl should face.

This had been her greatest burden.

But now, everything was better. Her familiar family life had returned, and naturally, she felt joy.

Seeing her so happy filled Zhao Ming's heart with warmth. Zhuqing was his woman, and he wanted her to be happy. In the future, no matter what happened, he would bear the weight, while she could simply enjoy her life behind him.

Though Zhao Ming was fond of women, he genuinely cared for each of his partners. He would protect them and ensure their happiness.

Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun, holding hands, walked away slowly. Both were stunning beauties, and as sisters, they had perfect figures and long, beautiful legs. Walking together, they created a captivating image.

Watching them gradually walk away, Zhao Ming smiled softly.

Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun had both endured hardship, born into the Zhu family and having their futures planned without any say.

Their destinies were decided from birth. To be forced to live according to others' expectations was a tragic fate.

But fortunately, he, Zhao Ming, had come.

Since he was here, Zhuqing wouldn't marry Dai Mubai.

And, of course, Zhu Zhuyun wouldn't have to marry Davis either. As Zhuqing's elder sister, she was his sister-in-law, and it was only right for him to help her as well.

But this was only because Zhao Ming had seen in Zhu Zhuyun's eyes that she wasn't the kind of person he had initially thought. From the moment he entered the Zhu family, he had carefully observed everyone. If he had sensed that they harbored no genuine feelings for Zhuqing, he wouldn't have let Zhuqing return to her family.

However, under his observation, it was clear that both Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zihao genuinely cared for Zhuqing.

As for why things had turned out the way they did before, it was simply a matter of circumstance. In this world, only rare geniuses and unparalleled powerhouses could truly break free from the constraints imposed upon them.

And coincidentally, Zhao Ming was one of those capable of breaking such chains.

In the Zhu family's parlor, Zhao Ming sat next to Ziji, observing the surroundings.

Ziji was incredibly beautiful, and she had already caught Zhu Zihao's attention.

Initially, Zhu Zihao had assumed that she was merely another beautiful woman accompanying Zhao Ming. Given Zhao Ming's talents and strength, it was normal for him to have such companions. As the head of the Zhu family, Zhu Zihao himself had several wives and concubines. It was a common practice. After all, family lineages needed to expand. Whether Zhao Ming was flirtatious or not was of little concern to him.

But upon closer observation, Zhu Zihao was shocked to realize that his spiritual sense couldn't even approach her. His senses dissipated three meters from her.

This discovery alarmed him, and he recalled how no one else in the estate had noticed the intense clash between him and Zhao Ming earlier. Despite the many people in Zhu Mansion, none of them had sensed the commotion from the testing platform. It was clear that someone had suppressed their energy.

"Unbelievable." Zhu Zihao's eyes were filled with shock. Whoever had masked the energy of their clash so effortlessly must have incredible strength. Even his father, a Spirit Douluo, couldn't have done such a thing.

Could it be that the young woman was a Titled Douluo?

"Uncle, I forgot to introduce her. This is Ziji, one of my subordinates. Her strength is comparable to that of a Titled Douluo," Zhao Ming said with a smile. As a powerful spirit beast, Ziji's strength indeed rivaled that of a Titled Douluo and not just any ordinary one.

With her immense power, even without revealing her true form, she could match newly advanced Titled Douluo-level opponents. If she were to reveal her true form, she would be unmatched in the entire Star Luo Empire.

However, Zhao Ming would never let Ziji reveal her true form in battle, as it would cause too many complications.

"A Titled Douluo?" Zhu Zihao's eyes widened in disbelief. He had suspected it, but Zhao Ming's words confirmed his guess.

This woman, Ziji, was indeed a Titled Douluo.

Moreover, she was Zhao Ming's subordinate.

And Zhao Ming, being the boyfriend of his beloved daughter, was the Zhu family's son-in-law.

With this realization, Zhu Zihao was no longer calm. He had initially thought Zhao Ming was merely a talented youth, a future powerhouse. But now, he realized that Zhao Ming's background was far from simple—he had a Titled Douluo as his subordinate.

A Titled Douluo, a being capable of calling the shots on the continent.

With Zhao Ming as their son-in-law, the Zhu family would have the support of a Titled Douluo.

But it didn't end there. Zhao Ming's background must be incredibly powerful.

Having such a young and beautiful Titled Douluo as a subordinate meant one thing—Zhao Ming's backing was immense.

Zhao Ming had said "subordinate," not "guard." The difference between these two words was astronomical.

A Titled Douluo might agree to serve as a bodyguard for someone, but to be a subordinate, especially for a youth who had only just reached rank forty, was unheard of.

Yet, here it was—a reality.

He couldn't help but wonder about the full extent of Zhao Ming's influence.

However, Zhu Zihao knew it was best not to pry into Zhao Ming's background.

He only needed to know that Zhao Ming was immensely powerful, and his connections were formidable.
