Boom!
Then, Ling Hao knelt on the ground with red eyes, looking towards Dongzhou's direction.
"Father, my son is unfilial. It's all because of me that I dragged the Zheng family down... I'm sorry, truly sorry..."
He could never have imagined that the truth behind the events was so cruel, the root cause being himself!
In my mind, countless past events flashed before me, including my biological parents and a kaleidoscope of people and things.
For so many years, he had deliberately avoided thinking about the past, wanting to completely cut ties with it. He never expected fate to play such a trick on him, forcing him to carry such a heavy psychological burden once again.
Although even Xue Lin didn't know the other party's real identity, he couldn't have had no guesses in his heart!
"Brother, condolences!" Lu Yue and the judge approached.
Knock, knock, knock!
Ling Hao took a deep breath, then bowed three times towards the direction of Dongzhou. He stood up.
"Since you didn't take my jade pendant, you should know I'm alive. Why didn't you come looking for me afterwards" He then looked at Zeng Xue Lin and asked in a low voice.
"We also wanted to find you, but later someone warned the Moge that if they dared to hunt you down again, the entire Moge would be wiped out. So our superiors ordered us to give up."
"Zeng Xue Lin took another deep breath before continuing, “Our explanation to your employer is that you jumped into the river on your own accord and the jade pendant disappeared with you...”
"What is the secret of that jade pendant" Ling Hao continued to ask in a low voice.
As I was speaking, the image of my grandfather flashed through my mind. If I'm right, it must have been him who warned Mo Ge.
"I... I don't know either!" Zeng Xue Lin shook her head.
"Lord of Judgement, I leave her in your care. Force her to reveal all the whereabouts of the Ink Pavilion and then wipe them out completely!" Ling Hao then turned to Lord of Judgement and instructed him.
"Received!" The judge nodded vigorously and walked towards Zeng Xuelian.
Five minutes later, Ling Hao and Lu Yue got into the car.
"Big brother, do you know who did this" Lu Yue started the car and asked.
Although it's not completely certain yet, it's highly likely! Ling Hao's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"Really" Lu Yue's voice dropped.
"I'll call Azure Dragon right away and have him and the rest of the team bring the squad to the capital city. No matter who they are, find them and kill them!"
To him, even if the capital was a den of dragons and tigers, it didn't matter. He had to avenge his brother's blood feud!
Moreover, he truly didn't believe that the number of people in the capital city could possibly stop the Blood Shadow Squad's advance!
Hundreds of thousands of Western Region cavalrymen, each forged in the fires of war and hardship. They are no comparison to those who were raised in times of peace!
"Wait a little longer, there are still some things that need to be further implemented, and now is not the time to go to the capital city!"
Ling Hao let out a heavy breath of turbid air, his eyes flashing with a complex expression.
After he finished speaking, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
"General, what are your orders!" Before the phone even finished ringing, a voice, smooth as silk and sultry to the bone, echoed from the receiver.
"Are you in the capital There are a few things you need to take care of immediately!" Ling Hao said in a deep voice.
If it were normal times, he would certainly scold him and tell him to speak properly. But now, he didn't have a shred of mood for it.
"Please give the order, General!" The other party naturally sensed Ling Hao's mood and immediately became serious.
Then, Ling Hao gave some instructions into the microphone.
Ten minutes later, he hung up the phone.
Her pupils narrowed to slits, her voice cold and hard as she uttered each word: "You better not let me find the evidence, or you'll regret it!"
Lu Yue, beside him, sensed the chill emanating from Ling Hao and couldn't help but shiver involuntarily.
He knew Big Brother was truly angry. If Big Brother's guess proved true, the capital city would inevitably be thrown into turmoil!
Just as the two were driving back to Dongzhou.
All nearly 20,000 young men belonging to the Shadow Gate Eastern District were mobilized and assembled in different directions in batches.
All forces in the eastern district were once again shaken, scrambling to find out the reason. The fact that the Shadow Gate was making such a big move definitely meant something major had happened!
By nightfall, a bombshell piece of news spread through the East District like wildfire.
Moge's ten outward-facing windows in the Dong District were all sealed, and all members were arrested!
After hearing this news, all parties were in awe. Indeed, it's the Shadow Gate. Even an organization like the Ink Pavilion, with a history spanning hundreds of years, was wiped out without hesitation!
At the same time, an image of a kingly figure appeared in everyone's mind!
Only the master of the Shadow Gate could possess such courage!
At nine o'clock in the evening, Ling Hao returned home.
"Dad, Mom!" After walking into the living room, they smiled and greeted Qin Hongyuan and his wife who were watching TV on the sofa.
"Ling Hao, why are you back so late today Haven't you had dinner yet" Shen Qiunan stood up as she spoke: "You just sit for a bit, I'll heat up some food for you."
"Mom, it's okay!" Ling Hao responded with a smile. "Lu Yue and I ate outside."
"From now on, try to eat less outside, it's not hygienic." Shen Qiu Nan said and still walked towards the kitchen: "Then you have some chicken soup, I'll heat it up for you."
"Thank you, Mom!" Ling Hao replied with a smile.
"Ling Hao, you've been away from your post for so long, don't you need to go back to work" Qin Hongyuan looked at Ling Hao and asked.
"I haven't really rested in the camp these past few years, so this time my superiors approved me for three months of leave." Ling Hao responded with a smile.
"Well, then what about Lu Yue Is he like you too" Qin Hongyuan continued to ask.
"His work is quite free, and he has to run around outside often." Ling Hao smiled again.
"No wonder!" Qin Hongyuan nodded.
"Dad, are Yuxin and Ruirui asleep" Linghao asked.
"Ruirui was tired from playing today. She fell asleep soon after dinner. Xiaoxin coaxed her to sleep in the room." Qin Hongyuan smiled.
Just then, Qin Yuxin walked out of the room.
"Honey, you're back!" Qin Yuxin looked at Ling Hao with a sweet smile.
"Mmm!" Ling Hao smiled and nodded. "Is Ruirui asleep"
"She's already asleep. I just put her to sleep and fell asleep myself." Qin Yuxin replied with a smile.
Half an hour later, Ling Hao finished his chicken soup and washed up before entering the room with Qin Yuxin.
"Honey, do you still remember my dragon-shaped jade pendant" Ling Hao asked after they got into bed.
"Of course!" Qin Yuxin nodded vigorously. "Before you came back this time, it was the only thing I could hope for. How could I forget!"
"Whenever I feel like giving up, I take it out and tell myself, 'Maybe one day, you'll come back to me.'"
"If, in this life, we truly are destined never to meet again, when Rourou grows up, I will give her the jade pendant and tell her that it was left to her by her father."
"Honey, you've worked so hard these past few years!" Ling Hao kissed his beloved's beautiful hair.
"No matter how hard and tiring it is, it's all worth it now. I'm very happy now." Qin Yuxin wore a happy expression on her face.
Then, she rolled over and got out of bed. She took the jade pendant from a drawer in her vanity and went back to bed.
"Honey, why did you suddenly remember this jade pendant Is something the matter"mm!" Yuan Xiong saw that Ling Hao didn't even look at him, a cold glint flashed past his pupils."Your name is Yuan Xiong" Ling Hao continued to look at the other person. "Are you sure you want to get...
