So, the truth of the matter is that Zhao Kuangcheng, the head of the Zhao family, has a close female friend named Zhao Kuangming...
Chu Ruomeng blinked her big eyes and looked at Chen Mo with curiosity as she left the room.
Chen Mo nodded slightly, "Bai Xihua likes Zhao Kongming. They love each other, but Zhao Kongcheng interrupted their relationship. Bai Xihua didn't agree, so he used force."
"Alas, such a beautiful woman, the number one beauty in Yongzhou, has lost hope in life under the various tortures of Zhao Kongcheng..."
Chen Mo shook his head and helplessly spoke.
Perhaps, Bai Xihua will choose to commit suicide, a large part of the reason is that he has had Zhao Kongming, the man he loves, and his own body is no longer pure. It's also because of his brother.
"I don't understand."
Chu Ruomeng blinked her curious eyes and asked, "Although the fact that Bai Xihua and Zhao Kongming were involved was not disclosed at that time, few people knew about it. However, Zhao Kongcheng is after all the head of the Zhao family and the older brother of Zhao Kongming. He must have known about their relationship. So, why does he still behave like this?"
"Are you curious?"
Chen Mo asked with a smile.
Chu Ruomeng nodded.
Chen Mo stretched out one hand and spread it open, displaying an air of asking for spirit stones.
Chu Ruomeng hesitated for a moment, but quickly recovered and said with some annoyance, "What gives you the right to ask me for money?"
"You said, one question equals one spirit stone. That's our deal, isn't it?"
"You... Then I won't ask."
"Haha, just a joke. I'll be honest with you."
Chen Mo smiled and continued, "Bai Xihua is the number one beauty in Yongzhou. Both Zhao Kongming and the Grand Elder of Tianyuan Sect also like her. Moreover, many men in the entire Wu Country and even Yongzhou like her, including Zhao Kongcheng."
"If you like someone, naturally, you would want to get with them."
"But, it's because of his younger brother."
"That's the most important reason."
Chen Mo sighed lightly, "Don't look at the harmonious appearance of the two brothers. In fact, Zhao Kongming, as the second master of Zhao family, possesses a talent far superior to Zhao Kongcheng's. This made Zhao Kongcheng jealous as his elder brother. He compared everything with his younger brother and found himself not good enough. What should he do? He couldn't really hurt his younger brother physically. So, he started to manipulate from other aspects..."
"Disgusting."
Chu Ruomeng pursed her lips and looked at Zhao Kongcheng with disgust in her eyes.
"There is even more disgust."
Chen Mo remembered this part of the plot and his eyes were filled with loathing: "For years, being outshone by his younger brother twisted Zhao Kongcheng's psychology. While he was holding Bai Xihua captive, he thought of all sorts of ways to torture her, and the means became increasingly cruel. As Bai Xihua's suffering increased, so did his enjoyment."
"Do you know why there are still traces of that year's in this dungeon?"
Chu Ruomeng shook her head.
"These are Zhao Kongcheng's spoils of war. Every time he sees these spoils, his mind is filled with great satisfaction, because in this way, he feels that he can surpass his younger brother."
Chu Ruomeng listened to this for a long time without speaking. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions, and she wanted to speak but couldn't find the words. In the end, she closed her mouth again.
"Hmm, during this journey, I've answered five questions, so you owe me five spirit stones... Hmm, letting you pay might not be what you like. How about deducting them from your wages?"
Chen Mo turned his head and chuckled, saying.
Chu Ruomeng's complex expression turned into anger as she heard Chen Mo's words, "You said you wouldn't take money." Her eyebrows shot up in anger.
"I say and you believe it?"
"You're an ass."
Chu Ruomeng's hands are clenched into fists, and her eyes are filled with anger. She has always only been the one who takes advantage of others, and no one has ever taken advantage of her. Thinking about this, she can't help but want to fight Chen Mo.
Suddenly, Chu Ruomeng stopped her actions, her eyes displaying an increased level of alertness.
"Be careful."
Chen Mo exclaimed in alarm, and at that moment, he pushed Chu Ruomeng aside, and he himself also stepped back a few steps.
Whoosh
An arrow flew past, hitting a wall of the dungeon directly.
That was the place where Chen Mo and Chu Ruomeng had just been standing.
"Come out!"
Chen Mo came to his senses, glanced at the arrow, and then turned abruptly, shouting fiercely.
"Your reaction is quite fast."
At the entrance of the dungeon, two people suddenly jumped out, both wearing black clothing specially designed by Zhao family. One held a long knife, and the other carried a large one. They looked at Chen Mo and Chu Ruomeng with mockery in their eyes.
"Ah, it seems Zhao Kongcheng is getting anxious. Why, doesn't he dare to come himself?"
Chen Mo chuckled and asked, "How come?"
The man holding the knife sneered coldly and said, "Dealing with you doesn't require the master to intervene."
"How come? Does he not come to kill his own brother in person?"
Chen Mo's corner of the mouth slightly curved as he continued to ask, "What's going on?"
"Bastard, what a shameless scum trying to disrupt our Zhao family! The head of the family and the second master are not easily turned against each other with blades. Don't be too greedy."
With that said, the man with the knife suddenly raised his blade and charged out.
Chen Mo furrowed his brow and retreated to Chu Ruomeng's back.
Seeing this, Chu Ruomeng raised her eyebrows and angrily said, "Asshole, how can you let a weak woman like me shield you from the blade?"
"You're being paid, aren't you? How can you stop working just because you've been paid?"
Chen Mo spoke straightforwardly.
"You..."
Chu Ruomeng, with no choice but to face the situation, reluctantly stepped forward.
Just at this moment, an arrow flew towards Chen Mo. He dodged with a swift movement and glared at the other party with a fierce look, "Only know how to make surprise attacks...".
Bang
A roar was heard, and a tall figure suddenly emerged from a cell in the dungeon, holding Chen Mo and smashing through several walls in succession.
Caught off guard, Chen Mo took a solid punch and spat out a cloud of blood. Then he forcefully kicked the person away, himself falling to the ground afterward.
"Crap"
Chen Mo swore and got up from the ground in an undignified manner.
However, he had now arrived at a cell, where a skeletal prisoner was lying on the ground next to him. The prisoner's disheveled long hair covered half of his face, dark and indistinct.
He was twisted to one side, his pair of lifeless eyes carefully examining Chen Mo.
Suddenly, she seemed to have remembered something and her pupils shrank sharply. She blurted out 'Ah Ah' as if she hadn't spoken for a long time, and her voice was blurred and unclear.
Whoosh
Another arrow came flying, and Chen Mo dodged it. Then he pushed away the excited prisoner who was rushing towards him, "Hide, it's dangerous."
Chen Mo spoke, but the tall man who he had previously kicked away stood up, holding a wide long knife, and swung it down on him with great force.
"Ah, no more than a level four, how can you hurt me?"
Chen Mo chuckled coldly and then summoned the giant sword borrowed from Feng Bàixià in his space ring.
"Aba aba"
The prisoner in the corner once again rushed towards Chen Mo excitedly, and he couldn't help but furrow his brow. He kicked him out with a casual move and then brandished his sword to face the giant man's broadsword.
Chen Mo and the man he was facing were both at the fourth realm, but his strength far exceeded others at the same level. With his newly learned sword techniques, he could even kill those at the third realm. If he added Great Treasure and Little Treasure, he could easily defeat those at the second realm.
With a single strike, the man was instantly pierced through with Chen Mo's sword.
However, after Chen Mo had dispatched the four-leveled man, the one from the shadows who had been shooting cold arrows shot another arrow.
Chen Mo hadn't reacted in time, and he was about to be hit, so he panicked and took two steps back. However, it was already too late. Just at this moment, the prisoner who could only say 'Aba ABA' suddenly lunged forward.
Crack
An arrow penetrated his back and came out from his chest, staining the ground with blood.
Chen Mo was first startled and then furiously drew his sword to retaliate. However, just as he was about to attack, a cold glint flashed, and the person who had previously tried to ambush had been killed by Chu Ruomeng.
"Are you okay?"
Chu Ruomeng hurried forward and asked with some concern.
Chen Mo shook his head and then bent down to look at the emaciated prisoner lying beneath him.
His dirty face showed a gentle smile, and his hands, covered in grime, gently reached out as if to caress Chen Mo's cheek. But with all his strength, he couldn't move any closer than half an inch, like a dream that had lasted for years.
Chu Ruomeng opened her mouth, and the indistinct 'Aba ABA' that had just been spoken slowly became clear.
"It's finally you again, my lord."
