C4 The Bloodline of the Hong Family

Ten years had passed, and the Hong Mansion had fallen even further. The vermillion gate had turned white, and the stone lions in front of the gate no longer had their usual dignity.

There were no guards at the gate, and it looked very deserted.

"The Hong Family has indeed declined even more!" Hong Zheng sighed and walked straight in. As soon as he stepped into the building, an unusually tall and sturdy man looked at Hong Zheng coldly.

This man was about forty years old, and his hair had already turned white.

A cold aura was emitted from the burly man's body. He said, "Beggar, although Hong Mansion is in ruins, it is not something a beggar like you can enter. Get lost!"

Ten years had passed, and Hong Zheng's young and tender face had become mature and resolute. It was difficult to recognize him easily.

However, when Hong Zheng saw this burly man, he instantly recognized him. He was the most loyal person in Hong Mansion, Wulie!

He didn't expect that after ten years, he would still be in Hong Mansion!

Although Hong Zheng knew that Wulie was very loyal, he didn't understand the current situation. If he told Wulie his true identity, it would definitely cause a huge commotion!

The reappearance of a person who had been dead for ten years was a little unbelievable.

Furthermore, if Situ Luoxin and Yuwen Canghai found out about this matter, he might get into trouble again.

Now, his cultivation base had regressed to the Qi Transformation Stage Level 7, and ten years ago, they had already reached a realm that the younger generation could only look up to.

Furthermore, they were also first-class geniuses, but they were suppressed by him back then. Therefore, they must have reached an even more terrifying realm now, and no one should know about his return.

Hong Zheng smiled. "I'm not a beggar. I'll prove it to you!"

After saying that, he walked to the front of a huge rock with familiarity. He cut his index finger and squeezed out a drop of blood to drip on the huge rock. The huge rock suddenly emitted a colorful light!

The blood test stone proved that he had the bloodline of the Hong Family!

"You are a member of the Hong Family!" Wulie was delighted, "I have been in the Hong Mansion for dozens of years, why have I never seen you before?"

Hong Zheng had already thought of an excuse. "Because I am Hong Xingjian's illegitimate son. My father said that when I am 25 years old, I will leave the village and come to the Hong Mansion."

He was shocked. Hong Xingjian actually had an illegitimate child!

"What's your name? Did your father tell you anything?" Wulie looked at Hong Zheng. From between his brows, he could see the heroic spirit of Hong Xingjian.

"My name is Hong Er! No, he left more than ten years ago!" Hong Zheng said.

Wulie nodded, then called a servant over. "Take Young Master Hong to take a bath and change his clothes! After you are ready, bring him to Meeting Hall!"

Wulie then told the current patriarch of Hong Family, Hong Loongteng.

Hong Loongteng was overjoyed. He immediately gathered all the important figures of Hong Mansion and sat down in Meeting Hall to discuss some important matters.

When Hong Zheng finished washing up and appeared in front of everyone, their eyes lit up!

"What a handsome man!"

At this moment, Hong Zheng's body was tall. He had changed into a long white robe. His beard had been shaved clean, and his hair had been washed dry. His hair was like ink as it hung loosely on his head.

His eyes were as beautiful as the stars.

Above the Meeting Hall sat an old man with a strong back and a strong waist. The old man's hair and beard were all white, and he looked majestic without being angry.

He was Hong Zheng's grandfather, Hong Loongteng!

Sitting on both sides were six or seven elders of the Hong Family's father generation. Standing behind them were their cousins, who were of the same generation as Hong Zheng.

When Hong Loongteng looked at Hong Zheng, his eyes emitted a strange figure.

"You are worthy of being Xingjian's biological son. The space between your brows revealed Xingjian's heroic spirit!" He said those words as if he had fallen into his memory. "You and Hong Zheng are very similar!"

After he said this, he became silent again. After a while, if Hong Zheng wasn't dead, I would have thought that Hong Zheng had returned. Ten years ago, Hong Zheng was murdered. Xingjian investigated this matter. There was still no result. Hong Mansion had completely declined!"

The elders looked at Hong Zheng with doubt and disdain.

Who was he?

The younger generation also cast contemptuous looks at Hong Zheng. An illegitimate child was preparing to take over the Hong Family's foundation?

The father wouldn't allow such a thing to happen, and the younger generation wouldn't allow it either!

Hong Zheng looked at Hong Loongteng. This was his grandfather. Ten years ago, he was in high spirits, but now, he was so old.

"Ten years have passed since this incident!" Wulie sighed.

"Grandpa, don't be too sad. You still have me!" Hong Zheng said with a smile.

Hong Loongteng looked at Hong Zheng and said, "Hong Er, you are Xingjian's son. I don't want you to cultivate to any extent now. I only hope that you can live well, and I will be satisfied! "
