"Surely that's not all there is to the Hu family?" Lu Yu recalled the Shadow Guards who tried to assassinate him with a doubtful expression.
Seeing this, Chu Qinglin gave a scornful snort and said, "Rascal, you are not stupid after all. So you also noticed that this Hu family controls an assassins organization."
All the powerful families had groomed death warriors before, but never on the scale of the Hu family's operation. They were able to grow their operation into a strong and powerful assassins organization on the strength of their control of the majority of the civilian spiritual energy ore mining business. For many years, they had been excavating spiritual energy ore mines like crazy in order to nurture geniuses one after another.
