Chapter 294 - Just this point

"Hmm?"

The smile on Wang Hao's face suddenly disappeared, and his eyes squinted as he looked coldly at Li Qiu, a cold light flickering in his eyes.

Li Qiu's entire body shivered, she felt a dense killing intent enveloping him, she was so frightened that she felt her heart splitting apart, she immediately ignored her injuries and coughed blood as she explained: "Cough cough Young Master Wang, don't misunderstand, I had some feelings of love for your mother back then, but I have never used any inappropriate methods, and everything that happened back then was caused by Zheng Chu."

"Zheng Chu?"

Hearing Li Qiu's explanation, the coldness in Wang Hao's eyes lessened, but her killing intent continued to envelop Li Qiu, as long as Li Qiu showed an action that displeased him, Wang Hao would not mind killing him.

In any case, Li Qiu was not a good person, her death was not worth lamenting.

"Yes, that's right, that's Zheng Chu. He's the number one genius of the Zheng Family, an Innate at the age of twenty-one, a Core Formation at the age of thirty-six, and a core disciple of the Misty Rain House. He's thirty-nine now, one of the seven great core disciples of the Misty Rain House."

There was no need for Wang Hao to ask, as Li Qiu was very sensible and began to introduce himself.

When he heard that Wang Hao was Ling Qingxue's son, Li Qiu immediately made a decision in his heart. That was to take advantage of the relationship he had with Ling Qingxue as Misty Rain House's senior and junior brother, and use that to resolve the conflict between him and Wang Hao. He hoped that Lord Wang Hao would not forget about the lowly person, and forgive him, and let him off the hook, if she could befriend Wang Hao, it would be for the better.

In short, he absolutely could not become enemies with Wang Hao. Forget about the future, just right now, his life and death was in Wang Hao's hands.

The moment he was enveloped by Wang Hao's killing intent, he understood that with his current state, if Wang Hao wanted to kill him, he would definitely die.

The Jindan cultivator s who were secretly paying attention to this place did not dare to make a move, but even if they did, they would be far from being able to save them from imminent disaster.

As for selling Zheng Chu out at this time and using it to divert Wang Hao's hatred, Li Qiu did not feel any sense of guilt at all.

Don't look at the fact that the three great families were controlling Mingzhou City, in reality, Zheng Family was the real master of the Mingzhou City. The Li and Yu Families were both suppressed by the Zheng Family, and even the combined forces of the two families might not be a match for the Zheng Family.

The two families were of equal strength and had their own thoughts. They wanted to be the bosses and be on guard against each other. It was impossible for them to ally at all and everyone was afraid of being stabbed in the back.

Therefore, over these years, the two families could only submit to the Zheng Family, accumulate power, and wait for the right time to make a comeback.

As a Jindan cultivator, Li Qiu was one of the upper echelons of the Li Family.

Furthermore, Wang Hao had come to cause trouble for the Zheng Family in the first place, so he had even spouted such harsh words.

Li Qiu thought that regardless of whether or not Wang Hao was a disciple of the Taoist Master Yunxiao, just his innate talent alone was enough for him to make friends with. Furthermore, thinking about it carefully, Wang Hao's identity was pretty much there, he was almost certain of it.

After all, in this Dragon County, who would dare to pretend to be a disciple of the Taoist Master Yunxiao and act in his name?

Furthermore, with the astonishing talent that Wang Hao had displayed, he was an unprecedented level of talent in the Floating Dragon County. In any case, he had never heard of it before, and was even more monstrous than the Taoist Master Yunxiao back then.

Adding on the fact that Wang Hao was a sword cultivator, he had already comprehended sword intent.

There was no one more qualified to be Wang Hao's master than the Taoist Master Yunxiao in this Dragon County and even the Dragon Realm.

"Hehe, the seven core disciples of Misty Rain House, Misty Rain House is only so-so!"

With regards to the fact that Zheng Chu was a core disciple of the Misty Rain House, Wang Hao didn't take it seriously. Instead, when he heard that the Misty Rain House was only a seven main core disciple, he couldn't help but feel astonished and laugh coldly in his heart.

Wang Hao thought: "Looks like my previous understanding was a bit off. Even though Misty Rain House and Crouching Dragon Villa are both part of the Four Major Sects, excluding the possible existence of the Primordial Spirit Realm Ancestor, the strength of those in the Aurous Core stage, I'm afraid they aren't on the same level as the Villa."

"If I didn't have the Primordial Spirit Realm Ancestor, after I reach Core Formation, I might really be able to destroy the Misty Rain House with my own strength."

"Of course, the condition is that the Misty Rain House will not release them. Otherwise, I won't be bothered to exterminate them."

Li Qiu's face revealed an awkward expression. He was once the genius of the Misty Rain House, and this was a great pride of his life, but hearing Wang Hao say this, she felt that it had become a stain on her face.

Thinking about that, Li Qiu felt relieved, what kind of identity did Wang Hao have, of course shshecould not put Misty Rain House in her eyes, she had already released the words of the old man, if he did not release Ling Qingxue, he would destroy Misty Rain House.

Thinking about it here, Li Qiu still felt a sense of relief: Luckily I had already left the Misty Rain House.

And in fact, the number of core disciples in the Misty Rain House, compared to the number in the Crouching Dragon Villa, was indeed less pitiful.

Not only Misty Rain House, but the other two sects and County Palace s were also the same.

It was not because they lacked resources, but because most of the geniuses joined the Crouching Dragon Villa.

Seeing that Wang Hao didn't seem to understand the situation in the Misty Rain House very well, and following the principle of trying to curry favor with more, Li Qiu felt that it was necessary to explain a little more.

"Young Master Wang, you may not know this, but in the Slumbering Dragon County, the Crouching Dragon Villa has been the strongest power for the past few hundred years. After the rise of the Taoist Master Yunxiao, they gained even more prestige, and they are worthy of being first place." Young Master Wang, you may not know this, but in the Slumbering Dragon County, the Crouching Dragon Villa has been the strongest in the past several hundred years.

"Therefore, in the last ten or so years, the number of top geniuses in the three sects and County Palace s have dwindled, resulting in the number of core disciples dropping by more than half. They were originally inferior to the Crouching Dragon Villa s, and now, even adding all of them together, they might not be able to surpass the Crouching Dragon Villa s."

"Misty Rain House is currently one of the seven great core disciples. When Zheng Chu reaches the age of one next year and he ascends to become an elder, he will probably only have the six great core disciples remaining."

Hearing that, Wang Hao's killing intent diminished a bit, and he joked: "Then why don't you and that Zheng Chu join the Crouching Dragon Villa? With your innate talent, if you join the Crouching Dragon Villa, you might be able to become a core disciple as well. "

Li Qiu's pale face couldn't help but turn red. With an embarrassed smile, she said, "Our Mingzhou City is the closest to the Misty Rain House, so practically all of the clan's elders come from the Misty Rain House, so we have some feelings for the Misty Rain House. No matter if it's me or Zheng Chu, our status in the Misty Rain House is definitely higher than that of the Crouching Dragon Villa.

"Humph, with just this little bit of potential, no wonder you can't become a core disciple!"

Wang Hao coldly snorted disdainfully, and ridiculed him unrestrainedly.

Without competition and pressure, where would one get the motivation to improve? As a martial artist, he actually didn't strive for his own resources, but instead chose a sect with fewer talents to reduce the difficulty in obtaining these resources. This kind of person, even if they had enough talent, was destined to have limited achievements, because their vision, structure, and mental state were all limited.

Of course, these words were on Wang Hao's mind, he would not teach Li Qiu.

"Tell me how Zheng Chu treated my mother back then." Wang Hao asked.

With regards to the matter of Ling Qingxue, Wang Hao had temporarily put aside the financial schemes of the Zheng Family.
