The next day, the news of Meng Jue’s death had already spread throughout Blackrock City.

...

As for Han Zhao, who had killed Meng Jue, he was swaggering towards the Xu residence.

This afternoon, Steward Zhou sent someone to inform him that the head of the Xu family, Xu Zhengdao, who was doing business outside, had sent a letter to announce that Xu Ling had taken over the family business.

It just so happened that today was the day of the payday. Han Zhao’s dream of living off a woman would also be realized today, so he decided to celebrate with Xu Ling and get a reward.

After a while, Han Zhao arrived at the backyard of the Xu residence with ease.

He walked into Xu Ling’s room and saw that the round table was already filled with all kinds of wine and delicacies.

“Junior Brother Han, you’re here.” Xu Ling stood up to welcome him. “I asked the steward to book a table at the Drunken Moon Pavilion. I didn’t expect it to be full at noon, so I bought wine and food to eat at home.”

“I like to eat at home. If we eat, we can cultivate together,” Han Zhao said with a smile.

“Practice by yourself after dinner.” Xu Ling rolled her eyes at him.

“It’s more efficient to train together. I can check your cultivation progress.”

Han Zhao said seriously. His Qi Seeding special effect could infuse the pure true qi in his body into Xu Ling to increase her cultivation progress.

Of course. it could he the other wav around.

Xu Ling blushed and did not say anything else.

The two of them had just sat down when the maid, Lü Zhu, walked in with a food box.

“Third Miss, this is the snack that the Hundred Fragrances House has just made.”

“Put it here.” Xu Ling pointed at the empty seat on the table.

“Yes.” Lü Zhu placed the exquisite snacks on the table and secretly sized up Han Zhao.

[The freshly made hazelnut crisp is sweet, but there’s a little extra ingredient in it. With your Poison Avoidance ability, it’s equivalent to a spicy taste.]

Han Zhao picked up a hazelnut crisp and a system notification suddenly appeared.

“Lü Zhu.” Han Zhao placed the hazelnut crisp in front of Lü Zhu.

“Young Master Han, I…” Lü Zhu lowered her eyes and glanced at Xu Ling shyly before taking a step back.

“Junior Brother Han?” Xu Ling looked at Han Zhao in confusion. With his understanding of Han Zhao, it was really abnormal for him to do such a thing.

“Why? You don’t want to eat it, or you don’t dare to?” Han Zhao smiled faintly.

“I…” Lü Zhu panicked and hurriedly lowered her head to hide it.

“You must eat it!” Han Zhao suddenly stood up and grabbed Lü Zhu’s neck.

“Third Miss?!” Lü Zhu was so frightened that tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Xu Ling for help.

Xu Ling stood up immediately. “The hazelnut crisp is poisonous?!”

“Lü Zhu! You’ve been with me for twelve years?! Why?” Xu Ling looked at Lü Zhu in disbelief.

As if thinking of something, she cried out, “Could it be my second brother?”

“Ah!” Han Zhao tapped Lü Zhu’s lower abdomen with his finger. She immediately let out a scream and her body fell to the ground, convulsing.

“If you don’t say it, you’ll experience such pain for the next three days.” Han

Zhao was expressionless.

“I’ll talk, I’ll talk!”

Lü Zhu rolled on the ground in pain, crying and telling everything.

“Third Miss, please spare me! It’s Second Young Master…”

Lü Zhu cried and hugged Xu Ling’s thigh.

Seeing Xu Ling’s wooden expression, Han Zhao stretched out a finger and pointed at Lü Zhu’s abdomen, stopping the Life Nurturing True Qi from moving.

“Now, follow your plan and call Xu Jin over! Of course, you can also try to escape and bet if it will hurt to death.”

“Yes! I’ll go now!” Lü Zhu scrambled out of the room as if she had been pardoned.

Han Zhao walked to Xu Ling’s side and gently hugged her. “It’s your turn to make a decision now. Do you want to continue acting?”

After a long silence, Xu Ling nodded. “I… understand.”

After a while, hurried footsteps sounded. Han Zhao and Xu Ling lay on the table.

Xu Jin walked into the room and laughed loudly when he saw the two of them lying motionless on the table without going forward to check.

“Hahahaha! Good death! Good death!”

“Second… Second Young Master, I…” Lü Zhu’s voice was trembling.

“Lü Zhu, don’t worry. I’ll fulfill what I promised you so… Go die!” The smile on Xu Jin’s face instantly disappeared, and he punched Lü Zhu in the chest. “Pfft!” Lü Zhu screamed and spat out blood. “Second Young Master?!”

“A lowly servant like you wants to be my wife? In your next life!” Xu Jin said disdainfully.

“Ha… Haha! Cough, cough, cough…” Lü Zhu’s face was pale. She pointed at Xu Jin and laughed loudly. Blood kept coughing out, and soon, she breathed more than she breathed.

Xu Jin raised his hand and was about to punch again when he realized that his wrist was suddenly grabbed.

“Han Zhao?!” Xu Jin revealed a shocked expression. He suddenly felt a force enter his body from his meridians and his body instantly went numb.

“Forget it, let’s not waste time on him.” Han Zhao said to Lü Zhu.

“Alright… alright!” Lü Zhu instantly understood what Han Zhao meant. A trace of joy appeared in her eyes. She glanced at Xu Ling for the last time. “Third Miss, I was… wrong…”

Lü Zhu’s eyes widened and she stopped breathing.

Xu Ling walked forward and closed her eyes for her.

“You…” How could Xu Jin not understand that he had fallen into a trap? Immediately, his knees went weak and he knelt on the ground. “Third Sister, it’s all that b*tch Lü Zhu’s fault for urging me to do this. I was impulsive. We’re all biological siblings! Please spare me this time!”

Han Zhao watched coldly and did not speak.

Xu Ling raised her head slightly and looked at the sky outside the window. She let out a long sigh. “Junior Brother Han, he’s my second brother after all…’

As she spoke, Xu Ling turned around.

Disappointment flashed across Han Zhao’s eyes.

Xu Jin was delighted. Just as he was about to continue speaking softly, Xu Ling suddenly said in a low voice, “You shouldn’t have attacked my Junior Martial Brother Han!”

Xu Jin’s expression froze and his eyes widened. “Xu Ling, what did you say?!”

“Sorry to trouble you, Junior Martial Brother Han.” Xu Ling didn’t turn around.

“Xu Ling! I’m your second brother! How dare you…”

Crack!

Accompanied by the sound of the top of his head shattering, Xu Jin’s terrified cry stopped abruptly. His corpse fell beside Lü Zhu.

Han Zhao walked up to Xu Ling.

Her eyes were red and she sounded like she was about to cry. “Second Brother treated me very well when I was young, and Lü Zhu too.”

“It’s been hard on you. You’ve done enough. Besides…” Han Zhao hugged her. “I knew we were the same kind of people.”

After Xu Ling calmed down, she let Han Zhao leave first. She would deal with the aftermath.

Han Zhao didn’t say anything else and left the Xu residence.

Since she could deal with Xu Jin decisively, Han Zhao had a whole new level of respect for her.

After all, they were a family who had lived together for more than 20 years. It was understandable that she was sad and soft-hearted, but she could not let them go!

To Han Zhao, he wanted whoever harmed him in reality to die. Anyone!

After returning home, Han Zhao closed the door tightly. This accident made him feel the need to simulate the future.

“System.”

[Collected 60 Notification Fragments. Do you want to synthesize the Trait?] [Each synthesis will consume 45 Notification Fragments and 60 taels of gold…]

[Current Balance: 170 taels of gold]

“After dealing with Xu Jin, when Xu Ling completely controls the family business, the resources will be integrated. At that time, it means that I won’t lack money for the time being.”

‘I’ll increase my foundation and cultivation efficiency first.’ Han Zhao thought to himself.

“Synthesize. Beginning simulation.”

20 years old. You helped Xu Ling seize the family business. Xu Ling annexed the Zhang family’s assets and reached an agreement with Su Yun. The two trading companies joined forces and changed their names to the Lingyun Trading Company. Their business expanded rapidly.]

21 years old, Your Mountain Splitting Saber Technique was perfected and you broke through to the third Blood Qi Breakthrough.]

[Considering that the news has passed, you disguised yourself as Ding Xiu and went to Jade Wind City. You sold Meng Jue’s steel spear in the Myriad Treasure Pavilion and obtained 3,000 taels of silver.]

[You earned another 5,000 taels of silver and spent 8,000 taels of silver to buy 22 catties of demon beast jerky.]

[Before leaving, Fang Ling sent you an invitation to go to the Divine Sword Manor.]

[After you asked for the reason, the three sisters of the Lian family appeared. Immediately after, two Force Tempering Martial Masters and three descendants of aristocratic families with one vein appeared.]

[The descendants of aristocratic families objected to a weakling like you who had broken through to the third Blood Qi Breakthrough joining the team.]

[You knew very well how dangerous Divine Sword Manor was. You weren’t prepared to travel with them in the first place, so you took the opportunity to reject them and returned to Blackrock City.]

[At the end of the year, after consuming 22 catties of demon beast jerky and the large number of resources provided by Xu Ling, you cultivated the Wind Riding Leg, Mountain Shaking Fist, and Yin Fiend Palm to the Third Level. However, the Yin Fiend Palm did not absorb Yin energy, so it obtained the least

Blood Imprint and Internal Force.]

22 years old. You reached the perfected third Blood Qi Breakthrough. After cultivating with Xu Ling, she broke through to the third Blood Qi Breakthrough and you successfully grasped Internal Force.]

[In the same year, your Life Nurturing Technique reached perfection. Your Wind Riding Leg, Mountain Shaking Fist, and Yin Fiend Palm broke through to the fourth level, but the Yin Fiend Palm lacked Yin energy and dragged down your Internal Force.]

[In order to perfectly fuse the three Internal Forces and obtain the Three Essence Force, you have decided to go to the Divine Sword Manor and absorb the Yin energy.]

23 years old. After making all the preparations, you entered the Divine Sword Manor. After killing a group of Fiendish Corpses and Blood Corpses, the demon appeared.]

[With the four Internal Forces, you forced the demon to retreat step by step.]

[At this moment, one of the three sisters of the Lian family, Lian Chengbing, appeared. However, she was already disfigured and her body was covered in pustules.]

[Although Lian Chengbing didn’t recognize you, she joined the battle when she saw the demon appear.]

[The demon was about to be killed by you guys when he suddenly laughed and said that he didn’t want to play anymore. Then, his strength soared. You and Lian Chengbing instantly fell into a disadvantage and were in danger.]

[At the critical moment, you no longer hid your strength and used all your true qi to use the Sword Drawing Technique. However, you only cut off one of the demon’s arms.]

[The demon laughed and told you that he had not used his full strength. Then, he reattached his arm and severely injured you.]

[At the critical moment of life and death, a ball of black fog appeared from the depths of the Anomaly.]

[In your despair, you used the last of your Internal Force to use the Mountain Splitter. At this moment, a woman in a green dress appeared in the black fog.

She recognized your saber technique and turned around to save you. She severely injured the demon with a single strike.]

[The demon shouted, “Heaven Fiend Demon Technique, Two Qi Grandmaster”, and ran.]

[The woman in the green dress asked you why you knew the Mountain Splitting Saber Technique. You removed your disguise and returned to your original appearance. The other party blurted out your name.]

[Before the final moment, the woman in the green dress said that her name was Lu Yingxuan.]

[You died..]
