Resurrection Empire-Chapter 1062 - 414: Outlaws Create Outlaws_2

Upon careful reflection, Ren Zhong couldn't help but feel a sense of melancholy in his heart.

Yu Chengde was also trying to discern Ren Zhong's intentions.

As a top-notch Level Nine Mechanical Warrior with formidable strength, Yu Chengde was highly respected wherever he went.

Even when he was once Ying Hao's servant, Ying Hao accorded him ample respect. But now, having suddenly changed his allegiance, Yu Chengde, who was yet to understand Ren Zhong's ways, felt somewhat anxious.

Ren Zhong leaned back slightly, resting against the chair, interlacing his fingers: "Mr. Yu, you're from a hundred and thirty years ago. I know that. The Chairman told me you were once his top fighter. I want to know, looking at the entire civilization at that time, where did you rank?"

Yu Chengde replied honestly: "Aside from the strong ones in the Military Department, I could be in the top ten."

Ren Zhong feigned delight, "Oh? Top ten? Who else ranked above you? Are they still alive today?"

Yu Chengde shook his head, "Not very sure. But in my era, it should be that a family's bloodline has been passed down. At that time..."

The last time he heard Yu Chengde tell this story, Ren Zhong didn't press further, but now with a change of perspective, he asked, "I'm a little curious, Mr. Yu, why did you want to kill that man, can you elaborate?"

Yu Chengde remained silent for two seconds, then narrated his experience.

After listening, Ren Zhong didn't make any statement, but his expression changed several times, sometimes sighing, sometimes hesitating, which made Yu Chengde a bit uneasy.

After a long while, Ren Zhong sighed, "Mr. Yu, do you believe in coincidences?"

"Hmm? I'd like to hear your clarification, Mr. Ren."

"Regarding your family, I've happened to hear some things by chance. The truth of the matter might differ from what you know."

Yu Chengde raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean, Mr. Ren?"

"I think fate is a truly intriguing thing?"

"Mr. Ren, speak plainly if you have something to say."

Ren Zhong: "The branch of the Ma Family you're aware of now resides in Yangsheng City, you know that, right?"

Yu Chengde nodded slowly, gritting his teeth: "I know. But Mr. Ying's grand plan wasn't accomplished, and the time for me to act hasn't matured yet. After all, it's a vast family developed over many years. But one day..."

Ren Zhong interrupted Yu Chengde's vow, "To my knowledge, about a hundred years ago, the current Yangsheng Ma Family also underwent a power transition led by a younger son seizing the succession."

Yu Chengde: "This is not important, it's unrelated to me. I just want them all dead."

"No, it's important. Before knowing about your situation, Mr. Yu, I never thought coincidences in the world could reach this extent. But now, thinking about it, perhaps it's destiny. Let me tell you about your family's situation, Mr. Yu. They didn't suffer and die. Back then, that Ma Family's younger son didn't torture your family to death; rather, he protected them..."

Yu Chengde: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! They told me personally!"

"Sometimes what you see is not necessarily real, let alone what you hear. I'll tell you clearly, your family didn't die off. On the contrary, your great-great-granddaughter is still alive and is doing well. If you want to know more of the truth, then calm down and listen to me slowly explain."

"This..."

...

After a long while, Yu Chengde's pupils dilated, and he collapsed into his seat in disbelief, muttering to himself, "This... this is too strange."

Ren Zhong sighed, "I also find it quite absurd, very intriguing, but this is the truth. Your experience is unfortunate, but the fortunate part is, at least your family started and ended well, finding a decent fate. Your family was destroyed by the Ma Family's younger son, and that Ma Family's younger son eventually died at your hands, which is a form of retribution. Although a single life cannot equal hundreds, the enmity has in fact come to an end. Although this might be hard for you to accept, the fact is, the Ma Family's younger son might not have been as malicious as you thought. Ultimately, everyone is somewhat bound by circumstance. Your daughter and his son fell in love freely and lived a safe and peaceful life, which is a blessing in disguise. As for the internal evolution of Yangsheng's Ma Family, there's an element of chance yet an inevitability. Your daughter inherited your fighting talent, combined with the genetic gifts of that Ma Family's younger son, making for a forceful union. Your grandson is a genius. Of course, the blood on your grandson's hands is perhaps even more. Once there was a city called the Nameless City..."

Ren Zhong then recounted the backstory of the Nameless City to him and extended the timeline up to the present.
