But what he didn't know was that at this moment, Zheng Guang was heading towards the Gao Family with He Hua.
After Ye Hao helped him remove the powder from his body, Zheng Guang had returned to the Innate Realm. He was confident that if he faced Gao Lun of the Gao Family, he could definitely suppress him. With He Hua blocking others, he could definitely wipe out the senior members of the Gao Family.
"Brother Zheng, the actions of the Gao Family are too rampant. This time we should kill all the senior members of the Gao Family," He Hua said, following behind Zheng Guang.
"Brother He, you don't need to take action this time, just support me. We are almost at the Gao Family, let's put on our masks! As the young master instructed," Zheng Guang said and then took out a mask to put on.
He Hua also put on a mask, secretly wondering about the boss's charisma, that even Innate masters were willing to be his servants...
Unbeknownst to them, a young man was following them with a mask. This person was none other than Ye Hao.
Ye Hao wanted to see what a battle between Innate masters was like, how strong they were, what fighting would look like, or what techniques might be involved...
Although his current strength was only at the seventh level of National Martial Arts, and caring about Innate Realm matters seemed a bit meddlesome, Ye Hao knew that as long as he stayed alive, breaking through to the Innate Realm was a certainty—it's just a matter of time.
The Gao Family was located at the border of Peng City and Wan City, with a large estate built on a small hill. It was constructed many years ago by the Gao Family's ancestor, and through years of development, the Gao Family had some connections, allowing them to securely occupy a piece of land for the family's descendants to live.
The Gao Family could be considered a relatively obscure family in Peng City. They were usually discreet and didn't go out much, and the family members were calm and clever, doing things decisively without dragging their feet, which prevented the Gao Family from becoming exposed, allowing them to develop steadily over time.
The Patriarch of the Gao Family, Gao Lun, was an Innate master over a hundred years old. However, since he broke through to the Innate Realm early, he looked at most in his seventies.
At this moment, Gao Lun was sitting in his study, waiting for news from his grandson, Gao Zhong, to see if he had obtained the Jade Seal.
If they had, they would set off to Nanling immediately, opening the tomb left by Zhu Yuanzhang, which would make the Gao Family tremendously wealthy.
At that time, they would no longer need to live in hiding and could live however they wanted. Just like Lin Tian now, as long as he had money, whatever project he wanted to develop in Peng City, someone would pave the way for him, allowing him to proceed and even wholeheartedly assist Lin Tian.
They also wanted to be like Lin Tian, someone with money, so that others would pay attention to their reactions.
"Zheng Family, hmph! Nothing to fear, perish with no regret?" Gao Lun said gloomily as he picked up his phone and saw the message from his grandson, Gao Zhong.
However, just as he turned off his phone, his landline rang again.
This call was from Gao Zhong. After thinking it over, he believed that Nalan Zhengqi was the most suspicious. If it was indeed Nalan Zhengqi who took the Jade Seal, their Gao Family was in big trouble.
Since Nalan Zhengqi dared to do such things as black-on-black theft, would he hesitate to wipe out one more Gao Family? So, he called back, hoping his grandfather would be prepared, or it would be trouble if they were caught off guard by Nalan Zhengqi.
"Hello! Chong'Er, did you get it done?" Gao Lun's first question was whether Gao Zhong had managed it. He trusted Gao Zhong so much that he didn't even consider failure.
On the other side of the phone, Gao Zhong said anxiously: "Grandfather, things might be going wrong. I suspect Nalan Zhengqi wants to perform a black-on-black theft. When I went to Times Square to get the Jade Seal that Zheng Guang mentioned, I found the seal had been swapped, and even the magazines in the safe were those handed out on the street today."
Upon hearing this, Gao Lun slapped his hand heavily on the table, angrily saying: "What did you say? The Jade Seal was swapped?"
"Yes, I was worried others might not be careful enough, so I went to get the seal myself. But when I reached the safe Zheng Guang mentioned in Times Square, I found the contents had been switched." Gao Zhong said nervously.
"Damn, is it Nalan Zhengqi?" Gao Lun, who had plotted all his life, was furious upon hearing such news.
"Grandfather, Nalan Zhengqi is the most likely suspect, although I don't rule out that Zheng Guang managed to free himself from my bindings. I'm calling to tell you that if it's truly Nalan Zhengqi intending a black-on-black theft, then our family is in danger. After all, we hired Nalan Zhengqi to kill the Zheng Family members. He fears we might expose him, or he might have discovered the treasure left by Zhu Yuanzhang, and at that point, he will eliminate our Gao Family to ensure we stay silent forever," Gao Zhong expressed his concerns.
"Chong'Er, you're right. Now go quickly and see if Zheng Guang is still there. If he is, it's Nalan Zhengqi up to mischief. If Zheng Guang is not there, then perhaps someone else has rescued him." Gao Lun, hearing Gao Zhong's analysis, became anxious.
Because if Nalan Zhengqi aimed to silence the Gao Family, they could not resist him.
After all, Nalan Zhengqi's power was at its peak, and with any carelessness, the Gao Family might be wiped out by his hands.
Because it was they who had drawn Nalan Zhengqi out.
"Alright, Grandfather, protect the family and don't let Nalan Zhengqi succeed." Gao Zhong said and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up, Gao Lun also began to deploy personnel, planning to have them leave, hide for a while, and then return, or come back after understanding the situation.
But just then, there was a loud noise outside the estate.
"Boom!"
The sound was extremely loud and carried some heat waves blowing by.
Hearing the sound, Gao Lun rushed out immediately. The Gao Family had accumulated so much over the years, and naturally, he didn't want it to be destroyed.
However, upon going out and seeing that the visitor was not Nalan Zhengqi, but Zheng Guang, he was stunned.
Wasn't Zheng Guang controlled by the Soft Bone Powder? How could he display the power of the Innate Realm?
At this time, the elders of the Gao Family came out one after another, wanting to see who had the audacity to act recklessly at their Gao Family estate.
The strength of those elders was only at the eighth or ninth level, not very strong. They became elders because they had contributed to the Gao Family and had been promoted by Gao Lun.
"Who are you? Why are you attacking the Gao Family estate?" One of the younger, hot-tempered elders came out and shouted.
Zheng Guang heard the person opposite him dare to ask who he was and laughed loudly: "Haha, you Gao Family bastards, you've wiped out a branch of my Zheng Family, and now you ask who I am?"
