Chapter 62: Another Secret

definitely a stranger!"“Looks like the remnants of the Zheng family must have climbed up to some powerful figure!” Zhao Yuehua nodded slightly."Hmm!" Zhao Yuehui nodded at the same time. "Big brother...>

"Lu Fudao, long time no see!" Luo Zhenzhou then looked at Lu Yue and spoke.

"Lu Fudu, it's been a while. I can tell your skills have improved even further. Not bad!" Lu Yue smiled faintly.

"Lu Fudao has given me praise, compared to you, my clumsy skills are nothing!" Luo Zhenzhou replied with a smile.

Then, he turned back to Ling Hao and continued, "Sir, what shall we do next"

"Alright, you don't need to worry about the rest. Take your people back." Ling Hao waved his hand.

"Received!" Luo Zhenzhou bowed again and tentatively asked, "Marshal, when do you have time these two days, I'd like to visit you"

"Is something the matter" Ling Hao turned his head and asked.

"Nothing...it's nothing, just a little bit of hospitality as the host." Luo Zhenzhou responded after a slight pause.

"I'll give you a call another day!" Ling Hao said nonchalantly after glancing at him.

With his sharp eyes, how could he not see that the other party had something on their mind.

"Okay!" Luo Zhenzhou nodded and turned to leave.

He needn't worry about the rest. Let alone that there are people from the hidden sect, even if only Ling Hao or Lu Yue were there alone, the other party, no matter how many they had, would be nothing more than a swarm of ants.

Plop!

After Luo Zhenzhou left, all the Zhao family members knelt down, each trembling, their faces pale.

Especially Zhao Yuehua, his face was filled with utter shock and despair!

He just couldn't understand why a big figure like Ling Shuai would come to avenge the Zheng family!

If he had known about the Zheng family's formidable background earlier, even if you gave him a hundred guts, he wouldn't have dared to attack the Zheng family!

He knew that the Zhao family was truly finished this time!

He now regrets most of all calling his eldest son back!

Originally, he had hoped that his son's abilities and family background would be enough to protect the Zhao family from all troubles.

Looking back, it seems I was the one who pushed my own son into the abyss.

"Ling... Ling Shuai... Back then, the Zheng family's affairs were... the doing of my three brothers... It has nothing to do with the Zhao family's younger generation..."

“I... we are willing to die to atone... please, Ling Shuai, let them go...”

Zhao Yuehua, with a face full of despair, begged for mercy while kowtowing vigorously. His forehead soon bore a gash from the impact.

"Please... please, let them go..." Both Zhao Yuehui and Zhao Yeming, the two brothers, also kowtowed in supplication.

"Remember what I told you before" Ling Hao spoke faintly, "I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it!"

"For...forgive me...I really am sorry...please...please leave a glimmer of incense for the Zhao family..." Zhao Yuehua started kowtowing desperately.

Five years ago, when your Zhao family exterminated the Zheng family, surely many from the Zheng family knelt and begged for their lives, didn't they

Ling Hao spoke again, “But what about the results From the head of the Zheng family to the cleaning lady, no one was spared!”

"Back then, you probably never imagined this day would come, did you"

“I…,” Zhao Yuehua opened his mouth, but couldn’t find the words.

“You... you really want to exterminate them all” At this moment, Zhao Jiajie gritted his teeth and stood up.

"You don't seem very convinced, do you" Ling Hao said lightly.

"Everyone's been talking you up, making you sound like some kind of legend! I wanted to see for myself today." Zhao Jiajie took a deep breath and spoke in a low voice.

"Xiaojie, what are you going to do Get down on your knees!" Zhao Yuehua cried out in shock and fear.

He never thought his son would be so crazy, daring to provoke Ling Shuai like this. He really doesn't know how to write the word "death"!

"You idiot!" Lu Yue said calmly.

"What qualifications do you have to teach the commander If you want to fight, I'll accompany you. As long as you can last one round in my hands, I'll let you live!"

"That's what you said, don't go back on your word!" Hearing Lu Yue's words, Zhao Jiajie's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light.

Despite facing certain death, a glimmer of hope arose in his heart.

Although he knew that Lu Yue's skills were not as good as Ling Hao's, they were still far beyond his reach.

However, as a candidate for the position of House Master, he had his own pride. At under thirty years old, he was already at the Warlord Realm of cultivation.

He still didn't believe it, with all his might he couldn't even hold back Lu Yue for one round!

Whew!

A strong aura emanated from Zhao Jiajie, and then, like a wild beast, he charged towards Lu Yue.

The moment he made his move, he played his strongest card. A piercing whistle of breaking air filled the air.

"After you go down, remember to apologize to those innocent people you've harmed by kowtowing!" Lu Yue said lightly, stepping forward two steps and raising his hand to throw a punch.

Boom!

The next moment, Zhao Jiajie, who had just rushed halfway, exploded like a ripe watermelon.

After a cloud of blood mist, there were only tiny bloodstains on the ground.

"Jeer..."

Seeing this, Zhao Yuehua let out a heart-wrenching scream, his entire body collapsing like mud.

"Do you have anything else to say" Ling Hao looked at Zhao Yuehua and spoke lightly.

"Only...only if you let go of the other Zhao family members, I...I'll tell you a secret."

Zhao Yuehua knew he couldn't possibly survive, but he had to leave a glimmer of hope for the Zhao family.

"Then it depends on whether your so-called secret can exchange the lives of your entire Zhao family!" Ling Hao said coldly.

"Actually, five years ago, the Zheng family massacre wasn't as straightforward as it seemed…" Zhao Yuehua took a deep breath before responding.

"What do you mean" Ling Hao frowned slightly.

"We three have indeed always wanted to make a move against the Zheng family, but we didn't have much confidence..." Zhao Yuehua paused for a moment and continued.

"Unless someone takes the initiative to reach out to us, we wouldn't move so quickly."

"Among those who later attacked the Zheng family, the two most powerful were also sent directly by the other party."

"Hmm!" Hearing this, Ling Hao frowned again.

He apparently didn't expect that there were still such hidden secrets about what happened back then.

The scene from five years ago involuntarily flashed in my mind, the two of them were indeed far superior to others in terms of skill.

At that time, among the martial arts masters of the Zheng family, apart from his foster father, the strongest were Mo Lao and Xiao Cheng's cultivation.

With Mo Lao's skill, he was undoubtedly the number one martial artist in Dongzhou at that time. However, in the hands of his opponent, he couldn't even last ten rounds before being seriously injured.

Looking back now, that person at the time was definitely already at the late stage of the Warlord Realm.

Apart from those two, the most skilled among the rest were only at the early stage of Warrior Master cultivation!

"Few people know about this, not even Liu Jiayao. Only the heads of our Wang family and Zhao family are aware." Zhao Yuehua continued.

"Who is the other party" Ling Hao asked coldly.omeone in the crowd said angrily."Stop it!" The middle-aged woman frowned."Yes!" A man in black behind her nodded and stepped forward two paces, raising his hand to strike the other person's face."If...
