Zhang Hao was very pleased! The drop this time was really good. As expected, it's worthy of being a small BOSS! The drop is quite decent.
Void Devouring Flame? Isn't that ranked second among the supreme exotic flames on a certain continent? That's much stronger than his own Nether Lotus Demonic Flame! Zhang Hao felt his little heart couldn't take it anymore.
"Zhang Hao, you just killed the Five Great Sects?" Liu Mengyao looked at Zhang Hao, a little stunned.
These were the Five Great Sects! They were actually killed by Zhang Hao like this. If this got out, Zhang Hao would definitely be on the run for his life.
Zhang Hao furrowed his brow and said, "Don't worry! As long as it's handled cleanly, no one will know I killed them."
After speaking, Zhang Hao flicked out a few wisps of flame, completely incinerating all the corpses on the ground.
Liu Mengyao looked at Zhang Hao and still said with some worry, "Zhang Hao, although you incinerated the corpses on the ground, if the Ten Great Sects want to investigate, they will still find a way."
Hearing this, Zhang Hao's brows immediately furrowed. This reminder from Liu Mengyao was good. When he killed the Blood Prince back then, his father still managed to find him in the end. This proves that there are still many ways to find someone under this sky.
"System, is there a way to help me clean up the traces?" Zhang Hao couldn't think of anything and finally turned to the System.
"The System can clean up combat traces for the Player and shield against tracing the origin. It requires 10000 points. Does the Player accept?" The System said to Zhang Hao.
Although Zhang Hao knew the System was always a rip-off, hearing that the System wanted 10000 points from him still made him feel a pang of pain.
However, this time he had killed the Fu Zi of the Five Great Sects in one go, so he had to be careful. Therefore, he grit his teeth and painfully spent 10000 points to let the System help him clean up the mess.
"Ding dong! Congratulations Player Zhang Hao, trace cleanup complete!" The System's notification sound rang out.
Zhang Hao was a little curious, was it done just like that? Although he found it a bit strange. But he still chose to believe this rip-off System.
"Let's go! It's done, no one should be able to find me." Zhang Hao said to Liu Mengyao.
Liu Mengyao glanced at Zhang Hao with some confusion, but seeing how certain he was, she didn't say anything more.
A few hours later, Zhang Hao and Liu Mengyao returned to Ninghai City together.
"Mother, I'm back."
Zhang Hao excitedly returned home and smiled as he looked at his Mother who was chanting scriptures and praying.
He didn't know when it started, but his Mother began to like chanting scriptures and praying. Although he was a little surprised, as long as his Mother liked it, Zhang Hao naturally supported it. His Mother being alone in Ninghai City and having something to rely on was also quite good for Zhang Hao.
"Hao'er, you're back?" Li Qinglian looked at Zhang Hao, a hint of joy appearing on her face. She put down the wooden fish in her hand.
"Yes, Mother, are you chanting scriptures again?" Zhang Hao asked, looking at his Mother.
"Yes, this way you can receive the blessings of the gods." Li Qinglian said kindly, looking at Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao's belief was that his fate was in his own hands, not determined by heaven. Naturally, he wouldn't believe in any gods, but since his Mother liked it, he wouldn't interfere.
"Hao'er, you're going back to the Sect now, aren't you?" Li Qinglian asked, looking at Zhang Hao with some reluctance.
"Yes! Mother, your son will return to the Sect tomorrow." Zhang Hao said with a smile, looking at Li Qinglian.
Li Qinglian suddenly fell silent, looking at Zhang Hao with a complex gaze.
"Mother, is there something you want to say?" Zhang Hao looked at his Mother, a little strange.
Li Qinglian sighed faintly and said to Zhang Hao, "Hao'er, you're also eighteen years old now. There are some things I should tell you."
"Mother, what do you mean?" Zhang Hao's heart tightened as he looked at Li Qinglian.
"Actually, you are not my biological son, but the son of my Miss." Li Qinglian said seriously, looking at Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao's heart trembled. Although he had transmigrated, after so many years, he had long since fully embraced his current identity. Hearing his Mother say this so suddenly, he couldn't quite take it.
"Mother, you must be joking, right?" Zhang Hao looked at Li Qinglian, shaking his head, looking disbelieving.
"Hao'er, it's understandable that you can't accept it." Li Qinglian sighed.
Next, Li Qinglian recounted the entire course of events in detail.
It turned out that Zhang Hao's biological Mother was Shangguan Qingxue from the Emperor Domain Shangguan Family.
Shangguan Qingxue was a heaven-gifted talent, already a Half-Step Martial Emperor at sixteen. She enjoyed traveling the True Martial Continent and eventually came to the barren Northern Region. It was at this time that she met Zhang Hao's Father, Zhang Shifeng.
Although Zhang Shifeng was considered a generation's Genius in the Zhang Family at the time, and even one of the top youths in Ninghai City. There was still a large gap in cultivation between him and Shangguan Qingxue, who came from a large Family in the Emperor Domain.
However, Zhang Shifeng's humorous conversation and kindness still won over Shangguan Qingxue. The two quickly fell in love.
However, the Ancestor of the Shangguan Family, a large Family from the Emperor Domain, was furious upon learning that his daughter had married a disciple from a small Family. He immediately sent Family experts to capture Shangguan Qingxue and bring her back. Originally, he intended to destroy the Zhang Family. But after Shangguan Qingxue's tearful pleas, he relented. To avoid implicating the Zhang Family, Shangguan Qingxue had no choice but to return to the Emperor Domain.
Li Qinglian was originally Shangguan Qingxue's personal maid, and they were as close as sisters. To compensate for Zhang Hao's lack of maternal love, Li Qinglian played the role of Zhang Hao's Mother from the time he was very young.
Only then did Zhang Hao have a sudden realization, and some mysteries in his memory were also solved.
No wonder Zhang Hao never saw his Father and Mother sleeping together when he was little. No wonder Grandpa's attitude towards his Mother was a bit strange. Even when he was very young, he felt that the way his Father and Mother interacted sometimes didn't seem like a married couple at all. Now with his Mother's confession, everything could be explained. His Father and his current Mother were indeed not a real couple.
If it were the previous Zhang Hao, he probably couldn't have taken it long ago. But he wasn't an ordinary person; he had transmigrated after all. If he could accept Transmigration, this really wasn't a big deal.
Looking at his Mother's expectant yet worried gaze, Zhang Hao said emotionally to Li Qinglian, "No matter what, you are my Mother."
"Hao'er!"
Li Qinglian immediately became emotional. She held Zhang Hao tightly. She had originally been worried that after confessing everything, she would lose this son.
Mother and son hugged each other and wept. A moment later, Zhang Hao asked Li Qinglian, "Mother, is the Emperor Domain Shangguan Family very strong?"
Li Qinglian nodded and said seriously, "Strong, very strong. It can be said that the Emperor Domain Shangguan Family, just by sending any Martial Warrior to the Northern Region, could easily destroy a Sect."
