Chapter 70: Traces of a Spider

joining the Lu army."As soon as the words left his mouth, he and Shen Le had already walked out the door."Ah!" Yuan Xiong took half a day to come back to his senses, and then quickly bowed in respons..."Haha, good, great!" Qin Hongyuan laughed heartily.

"That's great, that's fantastic! From now on, we're really a family!" Riri danced with glee in Qin Yuxin's arms.

Qin Yuxin's eyes immediately filled with mist...

At 4 p.m., the family returned home from the park.

Ling Hao originally wanted to have a private chat with Qin Yuxin, but he received a call from Lu Yue.

"Anything" Ling Hao asked when he answered the phone.

"Brother, the thing Zhao Yuehua mentioned last time seems to be developing!" Lu Yue responded.

"Hmm" Ling Hao raised an eyebrow. "Found someone"

"Not yet, but someone should know something about it!" Lu Yue paused for a moment before asking, "Big brother, have you heard of the man called Black Mountain Eagle"

"Black Mountain Carving" Ling Hao was slightly taken aback. "The underworld figure from Dongzhou before"

Before the Zheng family had an accident, Ling Hao, although not very concerned about the underworld, had also heard of this person called Heishandiao.

At that time, the underground world of Dongzhou had nothing to do with Yuan Xiong. He probably didn't even know where a corner was called and how to make a living by wielding a knife there.

Back then, Heishandiao held the same status in Dongzhou as Yuanxiong does today, an absolute ruler of the underworld.

"Yes!" Lu Yue responded. "The judge found out that the black mountain eagle disappeared right before and after the incident at the Zheng family."

It was after his disappearance that the Dongzhou underworld fell back into chaos, giving Yuan Xiong the opportunity to rise to prominence.

"Do you mean the Black Mountain Carving has something to do with the Zheng family" Ling Hao asked again.

"I'm not sure yet!" Lu Yue responded, "But things are too coincidental!"

Back then, the Black Mountain Carving was just like Yuan Xiong now, in its prime. If there weren't special circumstances, it shouldn't have chosen to leave.

I think, even if he wasn't involved in Zheng's affairs, given his position in Dongzhou back then, it's possible he knew something.

"Shall we meet him"

"Where is he now" Ling Hao asked after a moment of thought.

"According to our investigation, he disappeared after leaving Dongzhou five years ago and only reappeared two years ago," Lu Yue spoke again.

Over the past two years, he has used the alias Zhang Kun to open a casino in a small town 200 kilometers away from Dongzhou. It is said that business there is booming.

"Is that so Then go meet him!" Ling Hao replied.

Lu Yue's words are obviously reasonable.

Unless something extraordinary happened, someone like Hei Shan Dian, a figure who thrived in the underground world, would be unlikely to willingly leave during his prime.

Moreover, the fact that a pseudonym is currently being used clearly indicates a problem!

"Okay!" Lu Yue responded before hanging up the phone.

About half an hour.

Lu Yue and the judge arrived under Qin Yuxin's house and left with Ling Hao and his three companions in a car.

"Have you asked Yuan Xiong about the Black Mountain carving He probably knows a lot." Ling Hao asked after Lu Hu drove off.

"Asked!" Lu Yue nodded.

At that time, he was just a local figure on the outskirts of Dongzhou. There were several layers between him and Heishandi, so they didn't interact much.

After Heishandiao withdrew from Dongzhou, the underworld later had two more leaders before it was his turn to take over.

He knew very little about what happened back then. He had only heard that Heishandiao had offended some big shot and was driven out of Dongzhou.

"Hmm!" Ling Hao nodded slightly.

Half an hour later, the three arrived at the small town that Lu Yue had mentioned.

"Brother, should we just surround his casino and bring him out" The judge asked.

"No rush, let's not startle the snake yet!" Ling Hao shook his head slightly.

"Since he chose to stay in this small town, he must have been hiding from something and should have prepared an escape plan long ago."

"Let's go into the casino and see the situation first!"

"Received!" The judge nodded and slammed on the gas pedal.

Twenty minutes later, the Range Rover stopped in front of a medium-sized manor on the outskirts of the southern part of the city.

"Show your membership card!" A burly man at the gate stopped the car.

"Having come here with high expectations, what do we do about the 'card' situation" Lu Yue opened his mouth to ask.

"No entry without a personal introduction!" the man responded in a deep voice.

"Just do me a favor!" Lu Yue took out several banknotes from the glove compartment of the Land Rover and handed them over.

"Wait!" The man took the money, looked at it, then picked up his phone and dialed a number.

Two minutes later, came back to the car: "Park the car outside and follow me!"

"Thank you!" Lu Yue responded.

Not long after, under the man's lead, the three of them got a standard membership card. Although it was a standard card, the minimum recharge was five million at least.

This underground casino looks like they're playing big!

Then, the three of them walked towards a three-story building inside the estate.

Bang!

As soon as I reached the doorway, I saw a shadowy figure being kicked out by someone. It crashed to the ground with a thud, its mouth spewing blood and its body covered in wounds, one arm hanging limply at its shoulder.

"Dare to cheat here, and this time I'll break your arm as a warning. If there's another time, don't even think about keeping your head on your shoulders!" a muscular man in black said in a deep voice.

"I... I didn't cheat, it's... you guys just can't accept losing..." the man stammered.

"Dare you argue further Do you really want to die" The man in black stepped forward two paces. "I'll give you one minute. If you don't scram, you won't be leaving today!"

"You... you're robbing me!" The man spat out another mouthful of blood.

"I don't want to live, I'll make it easy for you!" The man in black frowned, and raised his foot to stomp on the man's chest.

"For a little bit of money, you don't have to go too far, do you" The judge spoke.

Then, he helped the man up and said, "Alright, let's go. Money is important, but you need to be alive to spend it!"

"Huh" The man in black looked at the Judge, his eyebrows furrowed. "Get out of here and don't cause trouble for yourself!"

"Heh heh, guests are welcome. If word got out about how you treat them, who would dare come gamble anymore" The judge said calmly.

After finishing, he looked back at the man: “Aren’t you leaving Are you really going to risk your life for some money”

"Thank you... thank you!" The man mumbled his thanks and stumbled towards the mansion gates.

The man in black looked at Ling Hao and his companions again, probably surprised by the aura emanating from them. He opened his mouth as if to speak but said nothing. Then he turned and walked towards the main hall.

Three people continued to step into the first-floor hall.

At a glance, all sorts of gambling equipment are available, and many people gather around each gambling table.

Later, the three of them strolled around the hall, taking a look at the various gambling tables. The stakes were high, with hundreds of thousands of dollars being wagered in each round.

“It seems Heishandi is not willing to stay retired. He has raised quite a number of people!”

In a short while, the three of them arrived at the rest area nearby and sat down. The judge spoke first.

"This filthy place should have been shut down ages ago!" Lu Yue nodded in agreement.

"Just in this hall alone, there are at least three warriors at the late stage of their strength, not including those in the side rooms."

"This kind of strength, even the current Yuan Xiong might not be able to withstand it!"

"Big brother, what do we do next Just grab someone and ask them" The judge nodded and looked at Ling Hao.ions for surgery. It's highly likely that he will have to have his leg amputated.""So I secretly gave you my phone number.""Xiao Xuan, don't worry first. Let me see your uncle." Ling Hao comforted her...
