What of the He Family? Firmly established at the pinnacle of Yu County, they had ruled over thousands of miles and held sway for over a hundred years. Yet, overnight, they crumbled to dust. It wasn't because they had provoked some high and mighty figure, for at that time, Chen Mu was far from being such a person. They simply lacked reverence, never holding Chen Mu in high regard from beginning to end, leading to their destruction one day.
The deceased members of the He Family, He Mingxuan, He Mingzhen, He Guangzong... Perhaps even till their last moments, they could not have imagined that the ultimate fate of their family would not be destruction at the hands of the Yu Family, but by the sole hand of Chen Mu.
"I shall heed brother-in-law's teachings with care,"
"I shall heed the great-grandfather's teachings with care,"
Many of the Yu Family's young boys and girls followed suit, bowing and speaking in a soft voice.
