Chapter 548 Awakening
"Thank you, Mr. Li."

The person who came in first saluted Li Ming, and then bowed deeply to the others.

"My Yue family has suffered misfortune. Today, we have encountered a great disaster and have caused you all to suffer. I, Yue Zhenhai, promise you that I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer!"

Yue Zhenhai's condition at the moment was not good, it could even be said to be very bad. They were all poisoned. Although Li Ming restored their ability to move, they were still sore and weak for a while.

It was just that Yue Zhenhai felt inexplicably relaxed after hearing a dragon's roar, and it seemed as if a surge of strength surged in his body. Otherwise, he might not have the strength to speak now.

Even so, his face looked very bad, pale and a little scary, without any aura of the Yue family's God of Wealth.

"Answer? What answer?!"

A young knight said, "Just now, your Yue family admitted that they colluded with the evil sect, killed people to practice martial arts, and harmed their fellow practitioners. Their crimes are unforgivable! How many lives have been lost? How do you think you will compensate for it?!"

Yue Zhenhai is Yue Zhenhai after all. As a seasoned businessman, he will naturally not be argued with by a young boy.

"My fellow disciples, my elders, I know that my grandfather did commit a heinous crime. However, over the years, the rest of our Yue family knew nothing about it and were even victims in this incident. If it weren't for the help of Hero Li, we would still be locked up in this dark and dark secret room. I, Yue Zhenhai, can swear to heaven that I have never practiced any demonic kung fu, nor have I ever harmed any fellow martial artist for the sake of it. I have only been running the Yue family's business honestly!"

As he spoke, he raised his finger to the sky with an earnest expression.

"If I, Yue Zhenhai, tell even a single lie, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"

"Humph, that sounds nice, but wasn't your Yue family's wealth also obtained through those dirty means?" An unknown middle-aged man in the dark said in a sinister voice.

Yue Zhenhai stepped forward, cupped his hands, and looking around, he said, "Admittedly, my old man may have made some mistakes in his early years, but he later showed remorse, which is why he stayed indoors for many years. We in the Yue family also know that we are stained with blood, and it cannot be washed away with a few excuses. The rest of us are willing to spend the rest of our lives to cleanse our old man's sins. Isn't this more effective than killing a few innocent people?"

These words did quiet down the place a little, but the quiet was only temporary, as the roaring sound from Li Ming's grappling hands continued to be heard.

Li Ming's expression changed slightly. "It seems my prediction was a little wrong. The old man's health is worse than I thought. Another half cup of tea."

Yue Zhenhai's face changed again when he heard this, and Yue Dingtian, Yue Pingbo and others behind him also came forward.

"Father."

Yue Zhenhai suddenly knelt down on the ground. When he knelt, the others followed suit and knelt down on the ground in unison.

Yue Zhenhai's voice was a little hoarse, and it was obvious that he was very tired. It was a difficult task for him to deal with it while dragging his battered body.

Perhaps there really is such a thing as a father-son bond. Li Ming secretly tried several methods to try to restore Yue Yuanba's consciousness, but to no avail. However, when all the Yue family members knelt down and Yue Zhenhai called out the word "father".

Li Ming clearly felt that the resistance in his hands had weakened a lot, so he chose to wait and see.

"Are you going to make the same mistake again?"

Yue Zhenhai gritted his teeth, tears streaming down his face, his nails digging deep into his flesh. "You may have had no choice back then, but turn back now!"

Yue Dingtian also shed tears towards the sky and let out a long hiss. Among the seven sons of the Yue family, the relationship between the eldest uncle of the Yue family and the old man Yue was the deepest, because at that time the old man Yue was in high spirits and had not thought so much.

It just so happened that his eldest son was extremely talented and was deeply loved by him. This was naturally very different from what Yue Dingchuan, the fourth son of the Yue family, felt at that time. Yue Dingtian, who grew up in such an environment, naturally had deep feelings for his old father.

"Dad, please turn back! Don't make the same mistake again!"

Seeing that Yue Yuanba's struggle was getting weaker and weaker, Li Ming felt relieved. Then he heard Yue Yuanba let out a long howl that sounded like both crying and laughing.

Li Ming took advantage of the situation and withdrew his internal energy, releasing Yue Yuanba. However, Yue Yuanba at this moment was very different from before. A withered, skinny old man with white hair appeared in front of everyone.

If his appearance had not changed, and if everyone present had not seen Yue Yuanba more than once, it would have been difficult to tell him apart.

"Dad, how did you become like this?" Yue Dingtian was shocked.

Although Yue Yuanba was in a very bad state at the moment, his eyes were clearer than ever before. He looked around and sighed, "After all, there is no escaping karma, and no avoiding karma!"

Seeing this, Master Song He shook his head and said, "Brother Yue, you and I have known each other for many years, I never thought..."

Yue Yuanba smiled bitterly, shook his head and tried to stand up straight. Seeing that he was struggling, Yue Zhenhai hurriedly helped him, but the two of them swayed and almost fell.

The Yue family actually ended up like this. Those few people who were once so arrogant are now almost as miserable as drowned dogs. Everyone feels quite sad.

Yue Yuanba then said, "I come from a humble background, a commoner. If I hadn't found the right time, how could I be where I am today? Haha."

He sneered, looked at Master Songhe and said, "The first time we met, if I remember correctly, was when we wiped out the Lianfeng bandits in Huama Cave."

Master Songhe shook his head and said, "You remember it wrongly. We first met in Wusong Gorge. You became famous in one battle, and your sword was better than three swords. I resented you for a while."

Yue Yuanba laughed again, then said, "I remember correctly. It's just that at that time, I was just a nobody, mixed up among those vagrant warriors. I watched you take the first place. Everyone praised you, the Cangsong Swordsman of the Qingsong Sect, for your unparalleled swordsmanship and noble morals. But who knew that I was nearly cut off half of my shoulder by the first blow from their Third Master? At that time, you even asked my name, saying that the righteous martial arts community would not forget my contribution. But unfortunately, neither you nor the so-called righteous martial arts community remembered me."

These words made Master Songhe fall silent. Perhaps it was because the memory was too old, or perhaps it was because the poison made him dizzy, and he really couldn't remember it for a moment.

He opened his mouth to speak, but after looking at Yue Yuanba's cold gaze, he felt his mouth dry.

Yue Yuanba then straightened up. Although he looked haggard, he exuded an unconcealable domineering aura.

"Today, it's just a matter of victors and losers. I don't have much to say, but that's how the martial arts world is. For a nobody like me, without a background or heritage, to achieve fame, to gain wealth, to become a leader, do I have a chance?"
