Chapter One: Thunder and Rain

In the East Peace Mansion of the Hanlin Empire, in the East Peace Mansion of the Profound Heart Continent, it was raining heavily. The thunder and lightning flashed across the dark sky from time to time.

"Leave quickly, they won't do anything to me! Hurry up! I just want to see my Lang'er again!" A young and beautiful woman was drenched in the rain, but she still could not stop her peerless beauty.

"No! Lanxin, I won't leave. How can I leave without you? How can Lang'er leave without his mother?" A similarly young and handsome man said anxiously. His resolute face was also filled with anxiety.

"No, they won't let you and your child go. Hurry up and leave!" The young and beautiful woman pushed the man hard, but the man was very decisive.

At this moment, a white-haired old man came. He looked old, but his footsteps were very steady.

When the young woman turned around and saw the old man, a trace of despair flashed across her eyes. "Elder Liang, please let them go. Everything is my fault. Please take me back. Let them go!" The woman knelt on the ground and cried as she grabbed the old man's pants.

"Miss, the Heavenly Lord's order cannot be disobeyed. I hope you won't make things difficult for me." The white-haired old man frowned and said decisively.

"Lanxin, you don't have to beg him. Even if I die here today, I will never let him take you away!" The young man pulled out his sword and rushed towards the old man after he finished speaking.

"Alas…" The old man sighed and casually flicked his finger. The young man flew backwards with blood spurting out of his mouth. In the blink of an eye, he fell to the ground. It could be seen how terrifying the old man's strength was.

"No! Don't… Elder Liang, if you really want to kill them, Xin`er can only die in front of you!" As she spoke, the young woman's index finger was pointed at her Tanzhong acupuncture point. Everyone knew what the result would be. A decisive look flashed across the woman's face.

"Alas! Miss, why do you have to do this?" Elder Liang sighed and stopped his attack.

"Elder Liang, you have watched Xin`er grow up. You should know Xin`er's character. Let them go. Xin`er can go back with you. Otherwise, you can only bring Xin`er's corpse back to report." After the woman finished speaking, she stared at the old man, hoping that he would agree.

At this moment, a demonic voice sounded, "I say, Elder Liang, with your strength, it should be easy for you to control your young lady. Why don't you do it? Do you want to disobey orders?" He was about twenty years old. He wore a golden crown and a purple brocade robe. He held a white fan in his hand. His appearance was handsome and elegant.

"Young Master Lin, what are you doing here?" It was obvious that Elder Liang was not happy with the visitor, especially the words he had just said.

"Haha… I just came to see what kind of person my beloved sister, who I have been dreaming about, is. I wonder what she is to be with someone who has violated the laws of heaven!" Young Master Lin smiled softly. Although he was smiling, there was a killing intent in his eyes.

"Lin Shuze, stop dreaming. I, Ouyang Lanxin, will never marry you even if I die!" Lan Xin shouted with a laugh, as if she knew that she could not do it. She was relieved.

"Shut up, you slut! In the future, the entire Honghua City will belong to me. What's wrong with marrying me? I'll make you regret it today!" Lin Shuze roared hysterically. At the same time, he struck out with his palm and hit the child in the distance.

"No! My child… You killed my child!" Ouyang Lanxin crawled to the child in a frenzy and held him in her arms in panic. However, she found that the child had lost all his voice. He was crying and muttering, "You killed my child… You killed my child… I will kill you!" Ouyang Lanxin pounced at Lin Shuze like a wounded lion. Even if Ouyang Lanxin did not have the strength to kill Lin Shuze, Elder Liang would not allow his young lady to do it, because the two families would be at war. He could not bear it.

"Sigh … Forget it!" Elder Liang sighed lightly. With a wave of his hand, a white rope formed by a white light bound Ouyang Lanxin.

"Don't worry! Your bastard son is still alive. I just broke two of his most important meridians. He will never be able to become a Taoist. You will never see him again. Since I have achieved my goal and protected Heaven Lord Ouyang, maybe he will thank me. Hahaha …" Lin Shuze laughed wildly.

"Alright! Let's stop here!" Elder Liang brought Ouyang Lanxin with him and disappeared with a flash of white light.

"This is probably the difference between the immortal realm and the mortal realm?" Lin Shuze knocked his head with a fan and then disappeared with a flash of white light.

A group of two thousand soldiers in armor rushed to the entrance of the Marshal Mansion. At this time, an old man wearing a golden armor and a red cloak got off the carriage in the middle of the guards. His eyes were bright and spirited. The old man looked to be in his fifties. He had a tall and sturdy body. He was the Hanlin Empire's Great General, Ming Zhendong, who was one of the few strongest people in the Profound Heart Continent. He had the strength of the peak of the Martial God. He had been guarding the border for countless years. He was a god of war and had countless military achievements. When he came to his own door and saw the guards and servants lying on the ground, he thought that something big had happened. But why did he not kill them?

Old Marshal Ming grabbed a guard on the ground and shouted, "What happened?"

When the guard saw that the person was the old marshal, he endured the pain in his body and said, "Marshal, the person who came was an old man with white hair and beard. He said that he wanted to take away the third young mistress. We naturally wouldn't obey, but in the end... in the end... I was useless!"

Old Marshal Ming knew that things were not good, so he stood up and rushed into the mansion. When he saw the scene in the backyard, he almost couldn't stand still, and he staggered a few steps before kneeling on the ground and roaring towards the sky, "I, Ming Zhendong, have traveled the world and killed countless demons and ghosts. What did I do wrong? God, you have to punish me this way..." The dignified Grand Marshal of the Hanlin Empire had shocked the world for dozens of years, and all the enemies of the border were terrified. But at this moment, he was like an ordinary old man, and the sadness of a white-haired man giving up his black hair filled his heart.

More than two thousand soldiers of the Black Armored Army knelt down. The old marshal tidied up his emotions and returned to his solemn and dignified state. "What else is there to say about shaking the world? I can't even protect my children, and now even my grandson is gone. Where is Tu Rui?" In an instant, the old man seemed to have become the old man who never smiled or laughed.

"Your subordinate is here." A man wearing a pitch-black armor and wearing a black iron Ghost Face from his eyes down to his feet appeared beside the old marshal. Judging from his voice, he was about forty years old. He was at the Martial God Early Period, but the aura that was emitted from his body could make most people feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave. It was a kind of killing aura.

"Collect the corpses of my children and grandchildren!" After saying that, he turned around and left.

"Understood!" Tu Rui turned around to collect the corpses. Before the old marshal could leave.
