Fade listened attentively and finally figured out the whole story.

Daisy was Dormer's youngest daughter. She had always been smart, so he doted on her and trained her to one day bring honor to their family.

However, much to his surprise, Daisy was not interested in running a business, even though she was extremely clever and gifted. Instead, she was passionate about martial arts.

He disagreed with her interests at the start, but she was stubborn. She started learning martial arts secretly, and interestingly, displayed remarkable potential.

His attitude gradually softened as he noticed her talent and determination, and he began to accept the fact she was getting trained. Until later, when she became acquainted with Harold Chiang, a young martia artist, the entire Luo family's attitude completely changed. They suddenly supported her to study martial arts and kept hinting for her to take her relationship with Harold to the next level.

The reason for their sudden change in attitude was because Harold had an exceptional background. He was from the Chiang family, a hidden family.

Although the Luo family was considered influential, they could never compare to bigger and more powerful families like the hidden family.

The Luo family would be thrilled if Daisy and Harold were romantically involved. Even Dormer himself had gone to visit the Chiang family in person to push things forward in secrecy.

What made things easier was that Harold seemed to fancy Daisy as well, and he agreed to consider marrying her. To the Luo family, it was good news. They cheered in excitement and treated Daisy as if she was a precious treasure.

However, she was neutral towards Harold. She clarified to her family that she only saw him as a friend from the martial arts circle and had no plans of dating him.

Harold and the Luo family couldn't be bothered. They believed that with Harold's status and capabilities, it was only a matter of time before he would win her heart.

At the Martial Arts Convention that same year, Harold planned to propose to Daisy in public after winning the championship. However, his plans were ruined when he lost the finals to an underdog - Moore Chen.

Initially, Moore was a nobody, but in a few years, he rose to become an outstanding young martial artist of his generation. Later, when people learned that he once entered the Dragon Mausoleum, they assumed that his martial arts directly related to it.

Harold and the Luo family were frustrated as their plan was foiled, and what made it even worse was that Daisy met Moore after he won the competition. The two fell in love at first sight and were completely smitten with each other. Moore even came to the Luo family for a marriage proposal.

As the new champion of the martial arts world, Moore's potential and capabilities were unmatched, and he would be a good match to Daisy.

However, the Luo family knew what sort of powerful background Harold came from, and they looked down upon Moore and immediately rejected his proposal. Then, they contacted the Chiang family and quickly arranged a marriage between Daisy and Harold, forcing her to marry into his family.

As one would expect, Daisy would never agree to be forced into marriage. The family fell into utter chaos. Eventually, she left on her wedding day and eloped with Moore.

What she did was a slap in the Luo family's face, and they saw her as a humiliation to their family. On the other hand, the Chiang family was furious. They immediately issued an order to hunt the two of them down and kill them afterward.

Although the Luo family was worried about Daisy's safety, they didn't dare confront the Chiang family. Therefore, they could only watch silently from the side without another word. After all, the Luo family was in the wrong. If the Chiang family blamed them, they would probably suffer tremendously.

After more than a year of searching, the Chiang family stopped their hunt. They announced that Moore and Daisy were killed, and it was the end of the chapter as the Chiang family had finally gotten their revenge.

The Luo family didn't dare to ask more. They silently accepted the news and trod cautiously since then.

Fearing that they might offend the Chiang family again, the Luo family covered up everything related to Daisy and forbade family members and outsiders from mentioning this again. They acted as if nothing happened, and Daisy never existed, until now.

When Fade and Joey came to the Luo family and mentioned Daisy's name, they were forced to reveal the past they buried for nearly twenty years. Fade turned to look at Joey after Dormer finished the story. One of her clues was a piece of jewelry marked with a special pattern. The information they found from the Luo family's ancestral temple described it as a pattern unique to Daisy.

If all of these were true, Joey's real identity was about to be unraveled.

She was undeniably Daisy's daughter, and there was a huge probability that Moore was her father, the underdog of that competition.

There was still so much more to find out. Did the Chiang family successfully murder Daisy and Moore? What exactly happened during all that, and why did they abandon Joey and sent her to his master? Only Daisy and Moore had the answers.

"Joey, are you okay?" Fade asked softly.

Her lips curled into a faint smile and her eyes were expressionless. She replied after pausing for a moment, "I'm fine, Fade."

He continued, "Then do you have anything else to ask the Luo family?"

Joey glanced at the Luo family. Initially, she wanted to ask more about Daisy. However, she was annoyed by the panic and fear in their eyes as they looked at her, so she lost interest in asking them about it.

Dormer was willing to force his daughter to marry Harold for his benefit, and he allowed the Chiang family to chase after his daughter to provide the so-called protection for his family. Joey felt disgusted by his actions and could not bear to take one more look at his cowardly face.

Fade and Joey did not want to linger any longer. They left the Luo family as soon as they could.

When they returned to school, he applied for a leave of absence on her behalf and rented a hotel room. He decided to let her stay in the hotel so that she could get better rest.

Fade continued attending classes in school while he carried on his training with the Five Elements Squad in the Stealth Team base.

Time flew by quickly, and the Martial Arts Convention was almost here. There were more martial artists in Capital City than usual. Almost all the hotels were occupied. Some of them came to participate in the competition, while some were just guests who came to watch.

A few days before the Martial Arts Convention began, Fade gave Jasmine special training, and sure enough, her combat skills improved significantly.

Although she was only a beginner at Black Level, she was cultivating a high-level technique that Fade was teaching her. Besides, she had a rare Green Wood Spirit. The combination of both made her positive energy much stronger than an ordinary martial art practitioner.
