hful of blood and lay there like mud."You... what are you..." struggling to raise their head and look at Ling Hao."Remember a year ago when that sixth-ranked force in the Dark Realm was wiped out" Lin..."Master Eight, with the three great families having fallen, it's time for those who have been watching from the sidelines to make their move!"

After a moment's thought, Hou Ying continued, "Should we do something in advance"

"Indeed! Dongzhou, we are about to enter another busy season!" Yuan Xiong remained silent.

After taking another drag of his cigarette, he got up and walked toward the door. "Come on, let's go find Mr. Shen!"

"Okay!" Hou Ying was slightly startled before quickly following after him.

Meanwhile.

Ling Hao and Lu Yue drove to Qin Yuxin's house.

"Brother-in-law, have you heard Something huge happened in Dongzhou last night!"

As soon as the two entered the house, Qin Yufie exclaimed in a voice full of excitement, as if she had discovered a new continent.

"What's the big deal Tell me about it!" Ling Hao asked with a smile.

"You guys really don't know" Qin Yufei continued to shout, "This morning, everyone in Dongzhou was talking about this!"

"You haven't said what it is yet!" Ling Hao smiled again.

"I'm speechless. You two haven't heard the big news" Qin Yufei gave them both a withering look.

Yesterday evening, the top three prominent families in Dongzhou, the Zhao family, the Tao family, and the Wang family, were attacked by a group of mysterious people, resulting in numerous casualties!

And this morning, the heads of the three major families, accompanied by all their direct blood relatives, went to the mausoleum in the back mountain!

It is said that the three patriarchs and their elder family members committed suicide in the mausoleum, while the rest have been kneeling inside ever since!

"In other words, from now on, these three families are considered removed from the East Continent!"

"Really Something this big happened" Ling Hao put on a shocked expression: "Do you know who did it"

"Not too sure!" Qin Yufie shook her head. "But, I heard it's called something like Yingmen organization!"

"Speaking of which, it seems like something came to mind. She wore an expression of gossip and said, "By the way, brother-in-law, didn't you say you know a lot of people"

"Go find out what the Shadow Gate is all about, and why they're targeting these three families!"

"Shadow Gate" Ling Hao scratched his head.

I've heard of the Shadow Gate. They're like a police department, but they handle cases that regular law enforcement can't solve.

"If what you've heard is true, then these three families must have some major problems to be targeted by the Shadow Gate!"

"Such is life" Qin Yufei blinked.

On the other side, Qin Yuxin looked at Ling Hao with a deep and meaningful gaze. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she held back.

"Ah! I got it!" Qin Yufei looked at her older sister, then suddenly shouted loudly.

"Qin Yufei, what are you doing You scared Ruo Ruo half to death!" Shen Qiunan, who was playing with toys with Ruo Ruo, rebuked her angrily.

"Dad, Mom, Sister, great news, fantastic news!" Qin Yufie said excitedly.

"The Tao family is gone, we don't have to go back to Yun City anymore. Even if Dad and sister don't go to Qin Shi Group, they can find jobs in Dongzhou!"

Bang!

Shen Qiunan's toy fell from her hand as she cried out.

"You're right! I didn't even think of that, wow! That's great, really great!"

After hearing the two people's words, Qin Hongyuan seemed to have reacted as well. A long-lost look of ease immediately appeared on his face, as if a giant rock pressing down on him had been moved away.

"Grandma, does that mean we won't have to go to Yun City anymore" RuiRui seemed to understand something too.

"I'm not going, never again!" Shen Qiunan cried with joy, her eyes brimming with tears.

"Great, great, I like Dongzhou, but not Yuncheng..." Ruiru danced with glee.

Except for Qin Yuxin, the rest of the family did not show much change in expression. She was deep in thought.

Ling Hao, come here for a moment, I have something to ask you!

"Good!" Ling Hao smiled and nodded, then walked into the room with Qin Yuxin.

Five years ago, was the Zheng family's matter done by the three major families" Qin Yuxin spoke after the two settled into the room.

"Besides, what is your relationship with the Shadow Gate Or are you from the Shadow Gate originally"

"Uh... what do you mean" Ling Hao was stunned.

"You're still pretending to be clueless!" Qin Yuxin looked at him intently.

"I was kidnapped and interrogated yesterday noon about who I saved from the Zheng family years ago. And last night, something happened to the three major families!"

And you told me the day before yesterday so resolutely not to worry about being suppressed by the Tao family in the future, you must have known that something was going to happen to the Tao family long ago!

Also, I heard that the heads of the three major families went to the back mountain cemetery this morning to pay respects at the tomb of the Zheng family's patriarch!

"One thing might be called a coincidence, but so many things adding up together, you wouldn't tell me it's still a coincidence, would you"

"Alright, I confess!" Ling Hao knew Qin Yuxin would definitely have some suspicions.

After a slight pause, he continued speaking.

Five years ago, the Zheng family incident was indeed orchestrated by the three great families. The kidnapping of you by Lu Jun the day before yesterday was also instigated by the three great families.

"And I know the person in charge of Shadow Gate's Eastern District. They did approach the three great families, and there was my reason involved, but it wasn't the only reason."

"The three of them already had big problems and were targeted by the Shadow Gate long ago. The Shadow Gate just did me a favor."

"Really" Qin Yuxin tried to find some clue from Ling Hao's eyes.

"Of course it's true!" Ling Hao responded with a serious expression.

"I'll believe you for now!" Qin Yuxin looked at Ling Hao again. "What exactly is Yingmen"

"This problem is a bit complicated to explain." Ling Hao responded, "Just think of him as an organization that maintains order and punishes the wicked!"

"The Shadow Gate interacts with many departments, so it has a certain social relationship. Previously, for the contracts of Dong Quan Company and Dongzhou Building, I got them to help me handle them!"

"Understood!" Qin Yuxin nodded and said, "Another day, we'll treat your friend to a meal. I want to thank them properly."

"Um..." Ling Hao was startled again: "Okay! I'll call him tomorrow and ask when he's free!"

"Mmm!" Qin Yuxin nodded again.

Then, a serious voice spoke up: "Ling Hao, thank you!"

"What's wrong Why are you suddenly thanking me" Ling Hao asked.

"From the moment you appeared in Yun Cheng, you have brought our family so many surprises." Qin Yuxin looked up at Ling Hao.

Not only Ruirui, but also her parents and Xiaofei have seen a significant improvement in their mood. I feel that these past few days have been the happiest they've been in the last five years!

"Don't be polite to me, this is what I owe them!" Ling Hao smiled. "Believe me, they will only be happier in the future!"

"Well, I believe you!" Qin Yuxin looked deeply at Ling Hao.

……

Ding! Ding! Ding!

This afternoon, three miles outside the mountain cemetery, two groups of people were engaged in a fierce battle on an open grassy field.

Flickering figures, swords clashing.

On one side, ten young men from the Yingmen wielded cold crescent blades.

On the other side, there were twenty men and women in fine armor, holding weapons. Beside them stood a middle-aged man with a fierce aura.

Based on the current strength of both sides, they are evenly matched.

Although the ten young swordsmen had all sustained injuries, their fighting spirit far surpassed that of their opponents!n hearing this, Xu Hong and the woman in the cheongsam both gasped in surprise.Although they had encountered many wealthy clients, someone who offered ten billion yuan right off the bat was truly rare...
