Luo's family in Yecheng, at dusk.
The secret room in the west courtyard of the Luo family mansion.
The lights are dim, the light is dark, and the space is suffocating.
The entire secret room was empty, except for the ground and the blue stone walls, which were covered with holes left by the impact of gravity.
The atmosphere was terrifying.
Behind a tall figure stood two Luo Jiawei who had just returned from Yunwu Mountain.
"Did you really see it with your own eyes?" After the tall figure finished speaking, he turned around and stared at the two Luo Jiaweis with a questioning look on his face and a look of fear.
The tall figure was none other than Luo Hai, the adopted son of Luo Zheng of the Luo family.
"Young Master, Young Master! We saw it clearly. Ye Feng was poisoned to death by the poisoner from the Western Regions invited by Meng Xing!"
"Young Master, I heard that it is the most bizarre poison in the Western Regions, the Western Regions Corpse Poison!"
From the expressions of the two Luo Jiawei when they spoke, Luo Hai could sense the truth of what they said.
Luo Hai also knew about the "Western Region Corpse Poison". He had witnessed with his own eyes how horrific this poison was. Xia Li, an eighth-level warrior at that time, was infected with the "Western Region Corpse Poison". He died in the blink of an eye with blood coming out of all his orifices and his body festering.
Therefore, Luo Hai firmly believed that Ye Feng was poisoned to death by the "Western Region Corpse Poison".
At this moment, his solemn and frightened expression showed a gloating look, and he said: "Ye Feng, I didn't expect that you would have this day. You want to fight with me, but you don't even know who I am!"
After Luo Hai finished speaking, he laughed proudly and arrogantly again, saying: "All of you go down! The young master will definitely reward you well!"
When the two Luo Jiawei heard about the reward, they said excitedly: "Young Master! We have another piece of news to report!"
"What news! Tell me!" Luo Hai said indifferently, because in his heart, there was no more important news than Ye Feng's death!
"Master, we have also seen the young lady you have been looking for!"
When Luo Hai heard them talking about the news about the eldest lady, he thought that it must be Luo Ying. Then he asked anxiously, "Tell me, where did you see Luo Ying?"
"To reply to the young master, it is in Wucheng!"
Ever since Luo Ying was kidnapped, Luo Zheng sent her to Wucheng without telling Luo Hai and Luo Cheng.
"This old man is so cunning that he secretly sent Luo Ying to Wucheng. No wonder we couldn't find her even after searching almost the entire Yecheng!" Luo Hai's face was full of sinisterness, and then he asked with an angry look: "You, don't you know that this young master is looking for her? Why don't you bring her back!"
"Young master, please calm down, young master, please calm down! When the eldest lady was in Yunwu Mountain, she was injured by a poisonous beast and was poisoned. I guess she has been... poisoned to death now!" Luo Jiawei was hesitant when he mentioned the word "death" because he couldn't guess what Luo Hai was thinking about Luo Ying.
Hearing them say that Luo Ying was also poisoned by the Western Region poison, Luo Hai sighed and said to the two Luo Jiawei: "You all go down! Tomorrow's operation will proceed according to the plan!"
Watching the two Luo Jiaweis slowly leaving, Luo Hai didn't know why he wanted to catch Luo Ying to threaten Luo Zheng so much. But when he heard the news of Luo Ying's death, he actually felt an incomparable loss and pain in his heart.
Therefore, Luo Hai was unwilling and would not talk about anything about Luo Ying anymore.
His eyes were full of danger. After staying in the depths of the secret room for a while, he walked out of the secret room and headed towards the Luo family hall.
In the Luo family hall, Luo Zheng was instructing the butler Luo Dong to prepare some gifts and money and rush to Wucheng to deliver them to Luo Ying.
In the entire Luo family, the only person who knew Luo Ying's whereabouts besides Luo Zheng himself was Luo Dong, the housekeeper who had been in the Luo family for decades.
Luo Dong is a loyal person, calm and experienced in his work. Luo Zheng is worried about Luo Ying's life in Wucheng. Although the Luo and Wu families have a close relationship, Luo Zheng will not lose the face of the city lord in front of others.
"Luo Dong! I'm counting on you this time. After arriving in Wucheng, you must find out Ying'er's situation and come back to see if she has been wronged!" Luo Zheng's expression showed a deep sense of guilt as he spoke.
As a dignified city lord, he was a man who could call the wind and rain and had the power of life and death over the nine cities. How could he send his daughter to someone else's city
Thinking of this, those past events once again reappeared before my eyes with a look of guilt.
In the past, Luo Zheng was just an insignificant person in the Luo family. Later, he climbed to the position of city lord after going through many ups and downs, although he now possesses supreme glory and power.
However, whenever he thought of his wife's death, his eyes became full of sadness.
His wife was killed because of his ambition.
So, now is the time for him to implement the plan of transforming the city into a country. In order not to repeat the same mistakes, he chose to send Luo Ying away from the place of trouble first.
"Luo Dong! You must tell her to take good care of herself. Tell her that after everything in Ye Cheng is done, I will go to Wu Cheng in person to pick her up and take her home!" Although Luo Zheng is a heroic figure, he seems to have such a deep affection for his daughter.
At this moment, Luo Hai hurriedly rushed to the main hall from the Luo family compound.
When Luo Zheng saw Luo Hai coming, he immediately suppressed his fatherly love for Luo Ying. After signaling to Luo Dong, he looked at Luo Hai with a serious expression and said, "Hai'er! Why are you here!"
"Greetings, young master. I, Luo Dong, will take my leave first!" After Luo Dong finished speaking, he saw Luo Zheng waving at him, then turned around and left the hall.
Luo Hai, who had just walked into the hall, saw a look of surprise on Luo Zheng and Luo Dong's faces, and muttered to himself: "What were they talking about just now?"
Luo Hai, who was full of doubts, came to his senses when he heard Luo Zheng's question. He said excitedly, "Godfather, Hai'er has good news to tell you!"
"Good news!" Luo Zheng had not yet fully recovered from Luo Ying's emotions, and his words were a little distracted.
Luo Hai pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Godfather! The people who followed Ye Feng are back!"
The moment Luo Zheng heard Luo Hai's news about Ye Feng, he suddenly came back to his senses and asked urgently, "Tell me, did Ye Feng rely on the First Saint to remove the innate poison?"
"Adoptive father! Ye Feng was poisoned to death in Yunwu Mountain by Wei Yun, the adopted son of the Western Region Poison King. He will never come back in this life!"
"What! Hai'er, are you serious? Ye Feng is really dead!" Luo Zheng said excitedly, "God is helping me, God is helping me. Hai'er, give the order and we will take action tomorrow!"
"Yes, godfather!" Luo Hai responded and left the hall.
Witnessing Luo Hai's back as he left the hall, Luo Zheng's eyes and heart were filled with confusion and worry.
The three wolf smoke incidents in Yecheng, the kidnapping of Luo Ying, and the soul-chasing palm print on the Luo family's wolf smoke tower, all of these appeared vividly in his mind again.
Because Luo Zheng knew that no matter who it was, no one could tolerate the existence of someone who wanted to kill him or her by their side.
Especially for someone like him who is in power, he also resolutely decided to kill the person who was plotting to murder him with his own hands.
Whether it was Luo Cheng or Luo Hai, from beginning to end, Luo Zheng had no evidence or clues to find out who among them was the one who wanted to murder him.
His doubts were that one of his two closest relatives would actually want to kill him.
What worried him was the plan to destroy the Ye family tomorrow, because in tomorrow's plan, he set a trap for Luo Hai and Luo Cheng.
Whoever walks into this trap will be proven to be the culprit who deliberately plots to murder him.
Just then, someone reported outside the door.
"Master, Master, Ye Hu of the Ye family is here!"
"Let him in!" Luo Zheng ordered, instantly concealing his complicated emotions and waiting for Ye Hu's arrival.
"Greetings to the city lord!" Ye Hu looked like a completely humble man, bowing his head and lowering his waist to Luo Zheng.
"Brother Ye Hu, thank you for your courtesy. Come and sit down!" Luo Zheng helped Ye Hu up with one hand and sat him on the black iron chair.
Just when Ye Hu walked into the hall, Luo Hai, who had just left the hall, did not leave, but turned around and hid quietly in a corner outside the hall.
Luo Hai was puzzled, and thought to himself, "They are about to attack the Ye family. What does it mean for Ye Hu to come to the Luo family at this time?"
"Brother Ye Hu, are you ready?" Luo Zheng spoke to Ye Hu calmly, without any attitude of a city lord.
"Reporting to the City Lord, everything has been arranged. We just need to wait for the City Lord's order!" Ye Hu's face was full of confidence, and his eyes shone with excitement.
Luo Hai, who was hiding in the corner, heard the conversation between Luo Zheng and Ye Hu. He was furious and said, "How treacherous! How dare you do this without telling me, Luo Hai! Humph, tomorrow, tomorrow is the day you will die!"
After Luo Hai finished speaking, he turned around and left quietly. He did not return to the secret room, but went to the back mountain of Luo's house alone.
The moment he arrived at the back mountain, he used both palms to move his body and practiced martial arts.
"Soul-Chasing Palm."
Luo Hai suddenly kicked the ground and hit the huge rock on the back mountain with one palm. With a bang, the rock broke into two.
"Heaven and earth energy!"
After Luo Hai broke the boulder, he used the Luo family's unique "Tianwu Realm" skill "Heaven and Earth Gangqi".
The so-called "Tianwu Realm" of the Luo family is equivalent to the "Tiandi Realm" of the Ye family. Both are martial arts cultivation that only the family elders have.
After Luo Hai released the "Energy of Heaven and Earth", the entire back mountain was suddenly filled with a powerful aura. The huge rocks and mountains made rumbling sounds in this pervasive aura.
The boulders were shattered and the mountains collapsed.
The trees and grass that were filled with the scent were instantly uprooted and turned into ashes.
Luo Hai looked at Yecheng with a sinister look on his face and said, "Luo Zheng, just wait for me! Tomorrow I, Luo Hai, will change the fate of Yecheng!" After that, he knelt on the ground with a plop and said in anger, "Dad, Mom, I will avenge you tomorrow! Revenge!"
