C39 Zodiac Foetus

Only the continuous flashing of the stars in the sky could make the depressed atmosphere in people's hearts slightly weaken. At this moment, a light quietly streaked across the sky in the distance, and immediately after, a low muffled sound of thunder rang out.

In a large mansion on the east side of the city, the spacious hall was brightly lit. A man in black clothing kneeled on one knee with his head lowered and body trembling.

"Crunch." The hook-nosed middle-aged man seated at the head of the group suddenly crushed the teacup in his hand. Immediately, his dark, sharp eyes stared at the black-clothed person kneeling on the ground like blades. He asked, "Is what you said true? In other words, the third young master fell into the hands of the Zheng Family and Elder Li also died? "

"Patriarch, according to the information we've received from our spies in the Zheng Family, that's true." Hearing this, the man in black hurriedly replied respectfully, "Third Young Master and Elder Li were captured by a young man who suddenly appeared. Later on, when Elder Li tried to capture Miss Zheng, he also exploded his head with a punch."

"Bastard, so many people can't even protect the third young master, what's the use of keeping you all alive!" When the hook-nosed man heard this, he was immediately enraged. He roared and threw a palm attack at the man in black.

"Bam." The kneeling black-clothed man was immediately sent flying, a mouthful of blood spraying out. He stared at the black clothed man who had vomited blood and said, "Pass down the order for everyone from the Lei Clan to gather quickly and follow me out. I want to see what capabilities this Zheng Tianhao has to even imprison the son of Lei Teng. Hmph, I will make sure that everyone from the Zheng Family will pay for this debt with their lives."

After finishing his sentence, a peerless killing intent burst forth from his body, causing the black clothed man to instantly feel as though he had fallen into a cave of ice. This person was Lei Lie's father, Lei Teng.

"Hehe, father, why are you so angry? If you go to the Zheng Family now, you will only fall into Zheng Tianhao's trap." Just as Lei Teng was about to explode in rage, the man in green, who had been sitting quietly at the side, suddenly spoke. This man in green, who was twenty-two or twenty-three years old, had a face as white as jade, a gentle and refined appearance like a scholar.

"Oh? "What do you think, Hong?" When Lei Teng heard the man's words, surprisingly, he did not get angry. Instead, he slowly suppressed his earlier anger and threw an inquiring look at him. The man in green was Lei Hu's second brother, Lei Hong.

The third son of the Lei Clan had already fallen into the hands of the Zheng Clan. The second brother, Lei Hong, rarely went out at home, so outsiders all knew that the Lei Clan had a second young master like him, but very few people had seen his true appearance.

"Hehe, I have a plan. If we execute this plan, we might face some risks, but we can use it to eliminate the Zheng Family." As Lei Hong spoke, a hint of iciness flashed through his eyes.

When Lei Teng heard this, he slowly sat down. His eyes flickered for a moment before he asked, "What plan?" As for Lei Hong, he toyed with a jade thumb ring in his hand and smiled faintly, saying, "Tiger Seizing Tiger Swallowing Wolf!"

In a huge residence in the city, a breeze carried a delicate fragrance from a garden. As one's gaze shifted to the garden, they would see a rich purple and red garden with a hundred flowers blooming in unison.

In the center of the garden, there was a pavilion and two figures sat facing each other.

"You lost again." "Her gentle, feminine voice drifted over with the fragrance of the flowers." Hehe, I'll play chess with you, but it seems like I've never won before, right? " A man's hearty laughter followed. As his line of sight zoomed in, he saw a middle-aged man in his forties, with a square face and wide ears, playing chess with a graceful woman in her thirties.

"You seem to have something on your mind." The graceful woman casually picked up the chess pieces on the stone table and asked: "Can you tell me something?"

The man laughed heartily and said, "Madam, how can you say that? We have been husband and wife for more than ten years. When have I ever lied to you?"

"The Lei Family had been on the move recently, and they even colluded with the Poison King's Valley. They attacked the Zheng Family today, but in the end, they were messed with by a young man who suddenly appeared. That idiot Lei Hu was captured by the Zheng Family and even had one of his arms crippled.

After the middle-aged man finished speaking in a single breath, he asked, "Madam, what do you think of this matter?"

"Looks like I'll have to go through a thorough cleaning of the city." The graceful woman touched her hair on her forehead and looked at him reproachfully. She then said, "After all these years, you're still the same as always. You don't let anyone relax at all. What does it have to do with us that they beat them?"

When the middle-aged man heard this, he scratched his head and said, "It's hard to change one's nature. I've already changed a lot under the Madam's guidance, and furthermore, I'm not in charge of the position of City Lord. Although I'm not in charge, I'm still a City Lord, so I should at least pay attention to what is happening here."

"I still don't know what you're thinking." The graceful woman rolled her eyes at him charmingly. She then said lightly: "Since the Lei Family can't endure it, there's no need to keep them. The Lei, Zheng, and Yu Families have always treated the City Lord's Mansion as non-existent these years. This time, we can use this opportunity to kill them."

When the middle-aged man heard this, he chuckled and asked, "Then madam's meaning is …"

The graceful woman stood up and walked to the pavilion. She reached out her hand to pluck a bright flower and took a deep sniff. Then, she extended her finger to lightly pull off a petal.

"It's going to change!" Zhang Hao raised his head and looked at the lightning that was shooting through the night sky. The corners of his mouth curled up as he turned around and closed the window.

"Bang, bang, bang!" Just as he was about to sit down and cultivate, a knocking sound entered his ears. "Come in." Zhang Hao didn't even look up as he said this. Then, he saw a shadow flash into the room.

"I brought you a cup of tea. Have you eaten well tonight?" Zheng Yun's gentle voice sounded from within the room. She gently lifted her hand and placed a tray on the table before nervously stroking her hair as she asked, "Are you prepared to rest?"

Zhang Hao looked at the girl in plain clothes. He didn't know why, but she always gave off a comfortable feeling. He smiled and said, "If you have something to say, just say it." He wasn't so stupid as to think that she would send him a cup of tea in the middle of the night. After all, she was a girl. It wouldn't be pleasant if he went to a man's room so late at night.

Zheng Yun was slightly stunned as he did not expect Zhang Hao to say this directly, but she was not a little girl who did not understand the affairs of the world. On the contrary, she grew up in a clan like theirs, and they were all not kind people, and they often fought each other. It was just that she had a gentle personality, and she did not like him.

"Little Qian? "Understand?" Hearing that, Zhang Hao grinned and said, "You don't need to think about it to know that she won't say anything good about me. You should just talk about your own matters." Upon hearing this, Zheng Yun smiled and nodded. "I've come to ask for something from you. I wonder if you could give me a gift?"

Zhang Hao finally got to the point where he could tell what she was talking about. His brows slightly trembled as he asked with an expressionless face, "What is it?" He had a bad premonition. This time, he seemed to have been set up by someone else. During dinner time, that little girl Yu Xiaoqian seemed to have something wrong with her head.

"This item may not be of much use to you, but it is quite important to me." Zheng Yun lifted her hand and poured him a cup of tea. She looked at it carefully before continuing, "I need an adult Ink Scale Python. I know you have it and know how precious it is. That's why I'm begging you to gift it to me, not asking you to buy it."

She seemed to have mustered up a lot of courage. After she finished speaking, she stared at Zhang Hao nervously, as if she wanted to find something on his face.

"Can you tell me what you want it for?" This time, Zhang Hao was surprisingly not angry. He was only slightly startled and immediately understood the whole situation. He bitterly smiled in his heart while slightly letting out a sigh of relief. He then angrily asked: "What else did that girl, Yu Xiaoqian, say to you?"

Zheng Yun wasn't the least bit surprised by Qin Lie's question. He had obviously anticipated his guess, so he only smiled and said, "I need the Golden Crown Ink Scale Python's poison to concoct a medicine. If it works, my father's poison should be eliminated. As for what Xiaqian told me, I can't tell you." When Zheng Yun saw that Qin Lie wasn't angry at all, he felt slightly more at ease and spoke in a much more casual manner.

"Dressing?" Hearing that, Zhang Hao's mouth twitched, and asked uncertainly: "Do you really know what you're talking about? Do you know how terrifying the poison in that Golden Crown Ink Scale Python's body is? " He couldn't believe what he had just heard. If he had used that kind of medicine, he would have already burnt incense without killing anyone, let alone using it to save someone.

Seeing his expression, Zheng Yun knew what he was thinking. Not to mention that he couldn't believe it, even he was shocked by the thought that had appeared in his mind at the start, but he still nodded with certainty and said, "Golden Crown Ink Scale Python, completely black, with a golden crown on its head. It lives in the depths of the mountains, rarely seen in the mortal world, and eats other poisonous insects as food.

After saying this, Zheng Yun glanced at him and saw him frown slightly. He then said, "Furthermore, the Golden Crown Ink Scale Python is extremely poisonous. If a normal person comes in contact with it, they will die. Am I right?"

Zhang Hao's heart pounded. Honestly speaking, he didn't know how terrifying the Golden-Crown Ink Scale Python was, it was just that he had fought with it many times before and had a profound understanding of its poison. Now that Zheng Yun said this, he was both shocked and glad that he didn't die at the hands of the Golden-Crown Ink Scale Python.
