Zhi Hao sat beside the tombstone, his mother's final resting place. "Mom, now I am not a trash that can be insulted. I will carve my own name in legends," he whispered softly, his eyes filled with tears.

He kissed the tombstone, then told in a low voice about his experiences while training in the World Ring, how he was able to gain extraordinary power. Even though it was just a story without an answer, it was enough to relieve his heart.

“Young Master, the Patriarch is calling for you,” a female servant's voice broke the silence.

Zhi Hao stood up straight, "Fine. Looks like the Xiao Clan is making a move. What are they really thinking? Even though Xiao Lui is just an insignificant slave," he muttered, slightly dismissive. "Where is daddy waiting for me?"

"In the Clan hall, Young Master!" answered the waiter.

"Thank You!" Zhi Hao said, keeping his hands behind his back, walking calmly towards the clan hall.

The female servant fell silent, her eyes fixed on Zhi Hao's retreating back. "Y

Xiao Long was surprised to see Zhi Hao's strength increase drastically. He tried to dodge, but Zhi Hao was too fast.“First Level Sword Technique – Death Strike!” Zhi Hao shouted. The Shadow Sword struck Xiao Long's chest, sending him staggering backwards. Xiao Long coughed out blood, his eyes bulging in disbelief."Impossible! How can a weakling like you have that much strength?" Xiao Long shouted.“Shadow Sword,” Zhi Hao answered, his voice cold and full of power.

Her eyes, which usually sparkled cheerfully, now radiated strong determination. He had seen for himself the cruelty of Zhi Sao, the leader of the Xiao Clan who had usurped the Patriarch's throne in a cruel way.“You calm down. I've already contacted someone in the Xiao Clan. Come with me to meet him.” Xiao Ming said. He got up from his seat, his muscular body looked sturdy even though he was old.Xiao Bai wondered that in his mind, but he didn't say it. just following where Xiao Ming would take him.

    Amidst the cold darkness of the night, Zhi RenXiao, with a dark turban covering his face, stepped nimbly towards the towering mountain peak. There, he met Xiao Ming, the figure he had been waiting for. The cold wind whispered, carrying a scent of mystery and threat."We meet again for the second time today," Xiao Ming said, his voice hoarse, full of enigma. "I rejected your cruel plan earlier. However, I have a new strategy. Would you be interested in hearing it, RenXiao?"Zhi RenXiao, who had always been known as a cunning and ambitious figure, sank into silence, letting the cold wind hit his face. "I'll give you a chance," he answered, his voice flat, "Tell me your plan."Xiao Ming, who was much older and full of experience, leaned in close and whispered as if the world wanted them to keep it a secret. “Well, this ploy will open a new curtain on our rivalry,” he whispered, his eyes sparkling with hidden plans.Zhi RenXiao, intrigued and stunned, finally nodded, “More enticing… I wi

"Did you know, it turns out that Zhi Hao is not Zhi Sao's biological son," whispered Zhi Lan in a deadly tone.Tension gripped the room. “Elder Lan, aren't you afraid that this is pure slander?” asked the Third Elder, Zhi Xing, his gaze piercing directly at Zhi Lan. “Why should I lie?” Zhi Lan said calmly. "I'm the only one who knows this secret, because when Zhi Sao married, that woman was already pregnant by another man!" Doubts abounded, but Third Elder remained unmoved. “I still find it hard to believe. however, if this is true, then Zhi Hao is not worthy of inheriting the Lightning Sword Technique, which is the pride of the Zhi Clan.”Meanwhile, the Fourth Elder is torn between loyalty and righteous

    "Why do you want to take over? Isn't there Zhi Hao as the eldest son? After all, he already practiced the Clan's ancestral Lightning Sword Technique."

He was sure that the Black Snake Poison he put into Zhi Sao's mouth would directly cause fatal paralysis."You are surprised to see that I can still stand. This is because of my son Zhi Hao. When you left after poisoning me, he came and treated me and he's also told me everything about your ambition of playing the Trick today," answered Zhi Sao, his voice trembling with pent-up anger.Zhi Renxiao was only momentarily surprised.

The room shook with every strike of the man's massive weapon, leaving cracks on the floor and walls. Zhi Hao, moving with incredible agility, continued to dodge."Fast, but that won't be enough!" the man roared, leaping forward in an attempt to crush Zhi Hao with a heavy swing.Zhi Hao calmly sidestepped, twisting his body gracefully.

Zhi Hao asked coldly.The man grinned despite his pain. "Just another pawn, like the rest. But my job is to make sure you don’t leave here alive."Elsewhere in the room, Black 4 and Black 5 were locked in battle with a group of masked men who seemed well-trained. The clanging of weapons and war cries filled the air."Master, we need to eliminate them quickly. This noise wil

    Zhi Hao left the grand hall of the Huai Clan with steady steps. Outside, He Lian waited with a serious expression.“What’s the result, Master?”Zhi Hao glanced at the imposing gates of the Huai Clan, his gaze sharp and calculated.“Huai Yan agreed to hold his ground and fortify their defenses. It’s enough for now. But this is just the beginning.”He Lian nodded and handed him a small scroll from his pocket.“This is the latest intel from Black 5. It seems the Grey Sky Sect has accelerated their weapon shipments. There’s a chance the Eastern Shadows are forcing them to move faster.”Zhi Hao unrolled the scroll and quickly absorbed the details. A cold smile formed on his lips.“If they’re rushing, it means they’re starting to feel cornered. Good. We’ll strike at their weakest point.”That night, Zhi Hao summoned his team for a secret meeting at a small cabin outside the Huai Clan’s territory.“Black 4,” he called.Black 4, sitting quietly in the corner, stood up straight.“Ready, Master

    Amid the tense atmosphere at the Ling Clan’s residence, Ling Zhen decided to take a drastic step. Standing in the main hall, surrounded by the clan elders awaiting his orders with bated breath, he broke the silence. “The situation is spiraling out of control,” Ling Zhen said firmly. “We’ve lost control over key territories, and the Eastern Shadows are pressing us relentlessly. Zhi Hao and the Huai Clan can’t be underestimated either. The only way to secure the Ling Clan’s survival is to ally with the Grey Sky Sect.” The first elder nodded in agreement. “This is a wise move, Patriarch. The Grey Sky Sect wields immense power. With their protection, we can at least withstand the Shadows’ assault.” The third elder, a sharp-eyed man with graying hair, added, “But what price will they demand? The Grey Sky Sect never acts without a substantial benefit.” Ling Zhen sighed, his face hardening. “I’ve considered that. If we must cede some territory or resources, it’s a fair price to pay fo

He Lian fired an arrow at the guard on the right, dropping him to the ground.Zhi Hao darted into the center of the camp, his sword gleaming as he slashed at a guard attempting to resist. “Don’t let anyone escape!” he shouted.A few guards tried to flee, but Black 3 and Black 5 intercepted them with ease. Within moments, the camp fell silent, leaving only one trembling man encircled at the center.Zhi Hao approached the man, his sharp gaze piercing through him. “Who sent you? What are you planning here?”The man shook his head, his body trembling in fear. “I... I’m just a guard... I don’t know anything!”Black 5, already losing patience, kicked the man, sending him sprawling to the ground. “Do you think we’ll believe that nonsense? Speak up before I break your arms!”The man sobbed in terror. “Alright! Alright! I’l

    The man in the black hood lay sprawled on the floor of the cave, his body trembling from the agony he had just endured. Black 5 stood beside him, twirling a small silver needle between his fingers, a cold smirk on his face.“You thought you could toy with my master and walk away unscathed?” Black 5 said in a low, menacing voice. He crouched down, slowly pressing the needle into the man’s shoulder, sending sharp pain coursing through his body.“Aaagh!” the hooded man screamed, his body arching in agony.Black 4 stood nearby, arms crossed, his expression unyielding. “You’ll talk eventually. We’ve got plenty of time. But for you, every second will feel like an eternity.”Zhi Hao stood a short distance away, his piercing gaze fixed on the man. He raised his hand slightly, signaling Black 5 to continue.Black 5 chuckled darkly. “You know this is just the beginning, right?” He pressed the needle into the man’s knee this time, twisting it slowly. “This pain won’t kill you, but you’ll wish it

    That night, Zhi Hao prepared his next move. Calm and composed, he stood in a dimly lit room at his temporary base, illuminated only by the faint glow of a small lantern. Before him lay a map of Linggau City, marked with strategic annotations.Black 5 returned from his reconnaissance, bowing respectfully before speaking. "Master, the hooded man appears to have connections with the shadow group from the West. They’ve been using the teahouse on the city outskirts as a temporary meeting place, but their movements are swift and difficult to track."Zhi Hao didn’t respond immediately, his sharp gaze fixed on the map. "How many people did you see?""At least seven, including the hooded man. Four looked like seasoned mercenaries, while the other two seemed to be intermediaries or messengers."Zhi Hao nodded slowly, then shifted his gaze to a burly man standing in the corner—He Lian, one of his combat commanders. "He Lian, assemble the team. We begin the operation tonight."He Lian grinned bro

    The dark night enveloped Linggau City. In a luxurious inn on the outskirts, the mysterious man sat in a dimly lit room. Several documents were scattered on the table before him. He gazed at them calmly, lifting his teacup and taking a sip.A plain-looking man entered the room quietly and bowed respectfully. "Everything is going according to plan, sir. Zhi Hao continues to pressure the Ling and Huai Clans. Tensions between them are escalating."The mysterious man placed his cup down and nodded slowly. "Good. Has the document reached Zhi Hao?"The man nodded. "Yes, sir. An anonymous courier managed to slip it into one of his frequent haunts. He must have read it by now."The mysterious man smirked, his eyes gleaming coldly. "Zhi Hao will see it as a golden opportunity. He’ll use the document to humiliate the Ling Clan and possibly provoke direct conflict with the Gray Sky Sect. In the process, he’ll expend considerable resources and energy.""And if he succeeds?" the man asked cautiousl

Rumors of a potential conflict between the Ling Clan and the Huai Clan spread quickly, leaving merchants and ordinary citizens anxious about their safety. Behind the scenes, Zhi Hao continued to maneuver his pieces, unseen by anyone.In a secluded tea house at the edge of the city, Black 1 sat at one of the tables, conversing with a nervous informant."The Huai Clan has started deploying small forces along the border. They're preparing for something, but Patriarch Ling doesn't seem fully aware of it yet," the informant said in a low voice.Black 1 gave a slight nod. "Keep watching. Make sure we know their every move. Zhi Hao wants this information on time."The informant hurried away, leaving Black 1, who soon melted into the bustling market crowd. He knew Zhi Hao's next steps would be pivotal.Meanwhile, at the Ling Clan residence, Patriarch Ling felt pressure mounting from all sides. Reports about the Huai Clan's

    The mysterious man unrolled another small scroll, revealing a document detailing secret transactions. The writing on the paper recorded the shipment of weapons and hidden agreements between the Grey Sky Sect and several small clans in the region. He grinned. "I got this from an informant in the black market. This is proof that the Grey Sky Sect has a contract to supply weapons to the Ling Clan and other clans. If this document reaches Zhi Hao, he'll definitely use it to expose the Ling Clan's betrayal."The younger man sitting across from him, still sharp but appearing less experienced, chuckled softly. "You're truly crafty. With this, Zhi Hao will shift his focus to destroying the Ling Clan while we remain in the shadows."The mysterious man nodded slowly, his eyes gleaming with the calculation of a well-thought-out plan. "And that’s just the beginning. If Zhi Hao and the Ling Clan destroy each other, we only need to wait for the right moment to swoop in and take what's left."The yo
