Before dawn, the cold air of late autumn was still strong, but it was still dark all around.

In the cellar of the Luo family, an oil lamp had been quietly lit. The young man, Luo Zheng, covered most of the light of the oil lamp. He sat in front of the table and quietly took out a worn-out thread-bound book.

Luo Zheng had just turned seventeen this year. He was thin and not very handsome, but he had a gentle temperament. His eyes were especially bright. Even under the dim light of the oil lamp, his eyes were shining.

"It took me a month to finish reading this book. The logic behind it is good, but I can't agree with the words 'for the good, for the evil'!" Luo Zheng whispered. He looked at the big picture and his face was full of sadness. "If it weren't for father's kindness and trust, my eldest branch wouldn't have ended up like this, and father wouldn't have died..."

After thinking for a long time, the sound of the door being unlocked suddenly came from the cellar door. Luo Zheng immediately swept away the sadness in his eyes, replaced by determination. At the same time, he blew out the oil lamp and covered himself with the shabby cotton quilt.

The door of the cellar was unlocked, and the sound of footsteps came from a distance. The leader stepped forward and stepped on Luo Zheng's bed. He shouted, "Are you still sleeping? Get up. Do you think you are the young master of the Luo family?"

This man was a steward of the Luo family. He had a sharp mouth and a monkey's cheeks. There was a tumor on his forehead, which made people feel disgusted.

Luo Zheng lifted the blanket and deliberately rubbed his eyes. He got up from the bed and put on his shoes, socks, and clothes without saying a word. Although these clothes were worn out, Luo Zheng was still dressed meticulously and neatly.

The steward rolled his eyes and said, "You're a man of virtue." Then he waved his hand, and several servants behind him surrounded Luo Zheng and put thick leather armor and shackles on him.

After finishing his work, Luo Zheng walked out of the cellar under the guidance of his servants and headed for the Luo family's Kung Fu Acting Hall.

The Luo family was a big family in Chongming County. They had a good field and hundreds of mines. They were well-known in Chongming County.

However, there were more than a thousand county cities in the entire Eastern Region. Among them, there were countless rich and powerful families. The Luo family was not ranked in the whole Eastern Region.

Luo Zheng was escorted by his servants and climbed out of the gloomy cellar. He passed through countless pavilions and corridors before arriving at the entrance of the Kung Fu Acting Hall.

The Kung Fu Acting Hall was an open place for disciples of the Luo family to cultivate. At the entrance, a Dragon-Phoenix Lion was built with white marble. The ground was covered with a square meter-wide black Xuanwu stone. Standing at the entrance of the hall, one could feel its great momentum.

In the middle of the Kung Fu Acting Hall, dozens of disciples of the Luo family in grey robes were practicing hard under the leadership of teacher Luo.

The wind from the fist kept blowing and shouting.

These disciples of the Luo family were all in their teens. In order to fight for a certain status in the Luo family, they worked hard every day to study and cultivate their bodies.

The cold wind of late autumn was piercingly cold, but their bodies were covered with sweat. Some of them even had hot steam rising from their heads and white mist swirling around them...

On one side of the Kung Fu Acting Hall, there were already more than a dozen men dressed in leather armor, wearing shackles and shackles like Luo Zheng. These men's auras were declining, their faces were swollen, and their bodies were full of wounds.

Luo Zheng was escorted into the martial arts hall and stood with those men.

Most of these fallen men were dead prisoners bought by the Luo family from the local prison, and they became family slaves of the Luo family. The role of these family slaves was to use the children of the Luo family as meat targets and let them beat, train, and test their strength. These meat targets were beaten to death every year, and there were countless people who were disabled.

Luo Zheng was not a dead prisoner. He was once the eldest son of the eldest branch of the Luo family. He was the well-known young master of the Luo family and enjoyed a high status in the Luo family. When the same generation of the family met him, they had to salute him with great respect. Even the elders of the family were polite to him.

However, two years ago, something major happened in Chongyang County. Luo Zheng's father, the master of the Luo family, was poisoned by his brother and suddenly died.

Then, the eldest branch was framed by the other three branches of the Luo family and was charged with treason. Under the wall of brothers, the eldest branch completely declined.

As the former young master of the Luo family, Luo Zheng was also charged with betraying his family. He became a slave of the Luo family and became a target of the Luo family. He was punished by the Luo family and practiced martial arts. He would never be able to make a comeback.

It had been two years since he had been casually beaten. During these two years, Luo Zheng had suffered countless blows and humiliations.

"Let's stop here for today's boxing practice. All the disciples of the Luo family should pick their own targets! When you hit the human body, you can fully understand the skills in actual combat and get familiar with the human body's weaknesses and the distribution of the bones!"

After House Master Luo gave the order, the disciples of the Luo family looked for their own targets. Soon, there was a burst of wailing and begging for mercy in the arms drill hall. These disciples of the Luo family did not treat these servants as human beings at all. They did not show any mercy at all.

Quite a few of them went to find Luo Zheng and fought with even more effort. This was because they felt a greater sense of accomplishment by trampling on this former young master!

Faced with the fists of a disciple of the Luo family, Luo Zheng protected the vital parts of his body. His face was expressionless as he dealt with them calmly. These... were things that he was used to.

Not long after, a few people suddenly walked in from the entrance of the Kung Fu Acting Hall. The leader was a young man in a brocade robe with a spring breeze on his face.

"The Young Master is here!"

"Young Master, you've finally come out of seclusion. You're in good spirits. I'm sure your cultivation has improved a lot!"

"The young master is smart and intelligent. He is a genius of our Luo family. He must have entered the Bone Refining Realm!"

The disciples of the Luo family who were present stopped beating him. They all talked to the teenager in splendid clothes, and their faces were full of joy.

Luo Zheng's gaze fell on the teenager in splendid clothes, and an imperceptible anger quietly rose. The teenager in splendid clothes, the "Young Master" mentioned by the disciples of the Luo family, was called Luo Peiran. He used to be the eldest son of the second branch, and was about the same age as Luo Zheng.

After Luo Zheng was demoted as a family slave, Luo Peiran replaced Luo Zheng and became the young master of the Luo family.

Some time ago, it was said that Luo Peiran had been cultivating in seclusion for a long time. Now it seemed that his strength had improved again!

Luo Peiran's senses were very sharp. Noticing Luo Zheng's unfriendly gaze, he turned to look at Luo Zheng with a playful smile on his face. He walked up to Luo Zheng and said, "Luo Zheng, I have been in seclusion for a long time. I didn't expect you to not be killed."

"Thank you for your blessing. I won't die yet," Luo Zheng replied in a muffled voice.

"Impudent, what kind of tone is this? How dare you speak to the young master like this?"

"You're just a servant. Why don't you lie down? Hurry up and kowtow and apologize to the Young Master, or you'll regret coming to this world."

The Luo family disciples began to clamor. From the looks of it, it was as if Luo Zheng had dug up their ancestral graves.

Luo Zheng looked around coldly. These disciples of the Luo family used to be like dogs in front of him, and they didn't even dare to breathe heavily. Now that he had lost his power, all of them changed their expressions faster than turning a page. They immediately became Luo Pei's dogs.

Luo Peiran waved his hand to stop the excited disciples of the Luo family. With a proud expression, he said to Luo Zheng, "Luo Zheng, do you know why I'm in seclusion?"

Luo Zheng remained silent and looked at Luo Peiran with a gloomy face.

"You should know that our Luo family has two Heaven and Earth Creation Pills? Some time ago, I ate one of them." Luo Peiran smacked his lips and said, "This Heaven and Earth Creation Pill is indeed extraordinary. The pure medicinal power cleansed my body and made me reborn. I jumped from the flesh-refining realm to the bone-refining realm, and the effect was only one-tenth of it. It stayed in my body and kept nourishing my body. There is only a small gap between the earth and the earth. The Marrow-refining Realm is just around the corner!"

Heaven and Earth Creation Pill!

These two elixirs were the most precious treasures of the Luo family. It was said that the holy medicines left by the ancestors were stored in the most hidden place of the family, and ordinary people were not allowed to use them.

According to the Ancestral Behest, only disciples of the Luo family who had reached the Bone Refining Realm before 16 years old were qualified to use the Heaven and Earth Creation Pills.

The five realms of the human body were divided into the first level of the Skin-refining Realm, the second level of the Body-refining Realm, the third level of the Bone-refining Realm, the fourth level of the Dirty-refining Realm, and the fifth level of the Marrow-refining Realm. The two realms had a huge impact on each other. It would be extremely difficult for ordinary people to break through. Without decades of cultivation, it would be difficult for them to break through.

If an ordinary person reached the third level of the Bone-refining Realm before the age of thirty, they would be considered to be very talented.

According to the Ancestral Behest, one must reach the third level of the Bone Refining Realm before the age of sixteen before using the Heaven and Earth Creation Pill!

The 16-year-old Bone-refining Realm was undoubtedly a genius among geniuses. Not to mention the Luo family, even in the entire Chongming County, it had never appeared. Therefore, in the past 300 years, the Heaven and Earth Creation Pill had never been used.

Originally, Luo Zheng was most likely to swallow the Heaven and Earth Creation Pill.

He had reached the peak of the second level of the meat refining realm at the age of fourteen. He was known as the hope of the Chongyang Commandery Prince to revitalize the Luo family, the proud son blessed by heaven, and the genius among geniuses!

Unfortunately, during this one year, his father was harmed by his brother because he was kind-hearted. Luo Zheng was demoted as a family slave and became a target of flesh. He became a prisoner and his cultivation remained stagnant. He had lost contact with the Heaven and Earth Creation Pill.

As for Luo Peiran, his talent was ordinary. He had just entered the second level of the meat refining realm at the age of sixteen, so he was not qualified to use the Heaven and Earth Creation Pill at all. However, he still moved.

The Heaven and Earth Creation Pill belonged to him. To think that he would be eaten by such a worthless piece of trash. Even though Luo Zheng's temperament had been completely flattened over the past two years, he could not help but become excited. He said angrily, "Luo Peiran, you actually ignored the Luo family's ancestral teachings and took the sacred medicine for yourself. You're worse than a beast!"

"Humph, in my eyes, you're not even as good as the insects in the cracks of the stone! I've already stepped into the peak of the Bone Refining Realm, and one hand can carry 500 kilograms. You're just a servant, and I can crush you with one hand. Today, I'm overjoyed that I've come out of seclusion, so I'll find a target to kill first!" Luo Peiran did not take Luo Zheng's words to heart. At this point, he casually pointed at him and said, "I'll choose you!"

Instead of choosing Luo Zheng, he found a middle-aged man. When the middle-aged man saw Luo Peiran point at him, his whole body suddenly trembled. Although he wore thick leather armor on his chest which could withstand a lot of injuries, he couldn't help shivering in the face of Luo Peiran, who was in the Bone Refining Realm. His crotch was suddenly wet.

Then, Luo Peiran took a deep breath and clenched his fists. He took the posture of the unique skill of the Luo family, "Red Lotus Fist". He intended to show off and ran the heart sutras to the extreme. His whole body was shrouded in a faint purple light.

"Please... spare my life... Young Master, please spare my life!" Seeing Luo Peiran's imposing manner, the target's eyes were filled with despair. This punch was definitely going to kill him. He begged for mercy and was about to kneel down.

"Clang clang!"

Luo Peiran was unwilling to listen to the begging of the target. The punch hit the target's chest, and a dull sound was heard. The leather armor used for defense on the target's chest was broken into pieces, and his whole chest was broken. He hit the wall of the Kung Fu Acting Hall and bounced to the ground without moving.

This punch had killed the fully armed target alive.

"The young master's punch is so powerful that I'm afraid we can't find a second one among the young men of the Luo family!"

"Young Master will definitely revitalize the Luo family and carry it forward!"

The disciples of the Luo family took the opportunity to flatter him again.

Luo Peiran seemed to be very satisfied with the effect of this punch, and then he looked at Luo Zheng with malicious intentions.

Luo Zheng subconsciously took a step back. Although he was much stronger than the middle-aged man, he could not take Luo Peiran's punch.

Luo Peiran chuckled and patted Luo Zheng's shoulder. "Don't worry. I won't kill you so soon. I'll let you watch. I, Luo Peiran, am much better than a piece of trash like you!"

Luo Peiran was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He turned around and said, "By the way, I forgot one thing. I heard that my talented cousin did not live well in the Blue Cloud Sect. She offended a big shot and was sent to the Purgatory to reflect on it! When I enter the dirty-refining realm, I will go to the Blue Cloud Sect to save her, hahaha..."

Upon hearing these words, Luo Zheng's heart immediately tensed up!
