âSix months ago, I used this poison as a medicine. You take that to poison me?â
Before this, Uncle Qin had used herbs to soak Chen Hao for the past six months. Because of this, Chen Haoâs body was impenetrable to most poisons now.
Chen Hao knew a lot about medicines, so of course he knew that the ginseng tea that Lu Han brought him was poisoned. Naturally, a poison like this posed no problems to Chen Hao.
He knew Lu Han would not harm him.
There was only one possibilityâsomeone from the Lu Family had malignant intentions toward him.
Chen Hao faked the symptoms to find out the culprits behind it, which turned out to be the group of people standing in front of him right now.
âHmph! The Mo Family has been putting in a lot of effort trying to find you for almost a year. Even though we didnât manage to poison you this time around, donât think you could escape from us!â Mo Yunhai laughed sadistically.
âMr. Chen, itâs great that you are unharmed!â Meng Kang clutched his chest and stood up smiling.
âMaster Meng, thanks for defending me just now!â Chen Hao wanted to test Meng Kangâs loyalty to him. He was very touched when Meng Kang risked his life for him.
As soon as he saw Meng Kang in danger, he woke up.
âMaster Mo, stop talking crap with him. Let me take him down right now!â A young man from the Mo Family smiled in disdain and charged toward Chen Hao.
When he was just a step away from Chen Hao, Chen Hao suddenly made his move and grabbed his head.
At once, the young manâs limbs stayed still and his whole body trembled.
Crack!
Chen Hao flicked his wrist and the manâs neck was broken.
He was thrown in front of the people from the Mo Family.
The seven people from the Mo Family were stunned.
They were all young people from the Mo Family with great skills and techniques.
However, he was like a meek lamb when Chen Hao grabbed his weak spot. His whole body shook as he couldnât defend himself.
âGood brat! I never thought he became this strong after a year!â Mo Yunhaiâs eyes widened.
âLetâs attack together and capture him!â Mo Yunhai waved his hand.
The remaining six people charged toward him.
Chen Hao raised his head fiercely.
He looked straight at them with red eyes.
Cold air seemed to gush toward them, sending shivers down their spines. The air in the room seemed to drop a few degrees.
Chen Hao raised the sword in his hand.
They were the ones who forced him to a corner and made him couldnât return back to his home, even if he wanted to..
They were the ones who made him suffer through a lot of humiliation and made him an outcast.
They were the ones who wanted to rob the Chen Family of its wealth.
Kill!
Violent murderous intent rose within him.
No one could stop him once he was determined to kill.
The six people could not even be considered worthy as his opponents.
Every strike of Chen Hao was fatal. Within ten breaths, everyone was dead.
Blood splattered all over the room.
âA-Amazing!â Mo Yunhaiâs eyes twitched.
Once Chen Hao attacked, he knew that he was no match for him.
He could only think of escaping. so he immediately turned to walk away.
Whoosh!
A dagger flew toward him and landed on Mo Yunhaiâs neck in a second.
âYou⦠You⦠!â After letting out two strangled sobs, he fell to the ground immediately.
âAah!â
Lu Xue was appalled. She covered her mouth and withdrew to the corner of the room.
Everyone from the Lu Family did not even dare to let out a huff of breath.
âM-Mr. Chen, we were forced by the Mo Familyââ
Lu Zongnian knew he was mainly responsible for everything that had happened, so he walked up to Chen Hao and smiled in an attempt to seek forgiveness.
As soon as he touched Chen Haoâs elbows, Chen Hao, whose eyes turned red, went straight for his neck.
A crack was heard and blood spurted out from him. Then, he was thrown out of the window by Chen Hao. After some struggling, he went still.
âPlease forgive us, Mr. Chen!â Lu Zongyuan and everyone from the Lu Family kneeled down frantically.
Chen Hao took a deep breath. The red in his eyes had finally subsided.
When Lu Zongnian approached Chen Hao just now, Chen Hao was still absorbed in his killings. It was suicidal to get close to him when he was in such a state.
âForgive you?â Chen Hao walked toward Lu Zongyuan slowly.
âYou shouldnât take back your words since youâve promised me the Scripture of Beasts. And should not even work with the Mo Family to poison me.â Chen Hao said while he grabbed Lu Zongyuanâs head.
Lu Zongyuanâs tears and snots slid into his mouth as he was scared stiff.
âChen Hao, no!â Just when Chen Hao was about to apply pressure to him, Lu Han ran into the room and screamed.
âHan, you are finally here! Save us!â Lu Xue ran toward Lu Han and hid behind her, looking at Chen Hao in terror.
âChen Hao, he is my father. I know heâs in the wrong here, but heâs just confused! Chen Hao, this the Scripture of Beasts! Take it and let them go!â Lu Han cried and walked toward Chen Hao slowly.
âHan, no! Heâll kill you!â Lu Xue grabbed Lu Hanâs elbows.
âDonât worry sis, Chen Hao told me that we are friends! He wonât hurt me!â Lu Han came in front of Chen Hao and handed him the Scripture of Beasts.
âChen Hao, if you had to kill my father to appease your anger, kill me instead and let them go! Iâm asking this as your friend, please!â Lu Han sobbed.
Looking at Lu Hanâs tears, Chen Hao could not bear to reject her.
In his mind, the Lu Family and the Mo Family couldnât escape the inevitable death that he would give them.
But Lu Han treated him as her friend after all. When he thought of how Lu Han was so worried for him when he got poisoned just now, he couldnât bear to do it.
âAfter Iâve done reading the Scripture of Beasts, Iâll return it to the Lu Family!â Chen Hao took the scripture from Lu Han and left.
Lu Zongyuan was traumatized by everything that had just happened that he couldnât even stand.
âOh no, Master Lu! T-Thereâs a lot of p-people in black outside!â One of the servants rushed into the room and reported to Lu Zongyuan, but he jolted as he saw the situation in the room.
When he saw the scene in front of him, he gulped before finishing his sentence.
After Lu Han followed after Chen Hao and sent him away, Lu Zongyuan only saw people dressed in black in his garden.
They looked dangerous and murderous.
They were Uncle Wen and his men.
âLetâs go!â Chen Hao said simply.
The men followed after him and left.
Lu Han staggered backwards.
She thought Chen Hao was just an introverted young man, but she had witnessed his callous and horrifying side today.
If she was like her sister who looked down on Chen Hao, everyone in the Lu Family would probably be massacred by him and ceased to exist by now.
Chen Hao, it seems like I only knew the real you today, Lu Han thought.
Sometime after Chen Hao left, Yang Xia brought her bodyguards and walked toward Lu Han.
âYoung Lady Lu, what a coincidence to meet you here. By the way, I assume your father is not busy right now. Iâm planning to visitââ Yang Xia said.
Lu Han seemed as though she didnât hear her.
She muttered two words repeatedly and walked back to Lu Family.
âWhat were you saying, Young Lady Lu?â Yang Xia asked nervously.
âThe Young Lady seemed to be in a weird mood today. Why donât we visit Lu Zongyuan straightaway?â
one of the bodyguards said.
âNo, I heard her muttering⦠muttering the words âChen Haoâ ?â
