Harold was eavesdropping beside them, with a strange look on his face. He couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was.

After the excitement, Moore glanced away and fixed his gaze on Harold. His eyes turned livid.

Taking a step forward, he concentrated his positive energy in his palm. He stared at Harold and asked in a deep voice, "Before you die, do you have anything else to say?"

Although he had expected this, he still panicked as he replied, "I-I know that I was wrong. As long as you spare my life, I will do whatever you want me to do."

"Only now do you beg for my mercy!" Moore's gaze was cold as he questioned, "Then why didn't you show us mercy back then?"

"I was wrong. I really do admit my mistake." Everyone was willing to go to a certain extent to beg for his life. "Moore, your daughter is still alive, and it's most likely that Daisy is also alive. Everything is fine. There's no need for you to kill me."

"The Chiang family is a hidden family. If you let me go, I, Harold, will definitely repay you. By then, I can make use of my family's power."

Moore's expression was grim as he stared at him with a smirk. "Did you think that I would want the Chiang family's help? Besides, do you think that I'll believe your words?"

Harold quickly answered, "I promise that what I said just now is true. I swear to God, if I, Harold, go back on my words..."

Moore waved his hand and cut off his words. "There's no need. It's been more than twenty years. It's time to end things."

After he finished speaking, the positive energy in Moore's palm condensed into a sharp sword. The sword was radiant as it stabbed into Harold's body.

When he saw death approaching, the pleading in Harold's eyes turned into fear and boundless hatred. In the end, his gaze was filled entirely with hatred. He gnashed his teeth as he stared at Moore and shouted, "Moore Chen, if you kill me, you'll die a tragic death. The Chiang family is a hidden family. We won't let you off."

"By then, not only you, but also your daughter and friends will suffer a miserable death. The Chiang family's strength is something that is beyond your imagination. Besides our Chiang family, there are also the Huang, Xu and Lin hidden families too.

And there is also Moon Lin from the hidden family. That time you..."

Moore ignored his final howl. The beam of light in his palm was about to stab into him.

However, Fade, who had his arms crossed, suddenly shivered when he heard the name "Moon Lin". Suddenly, he thought of something, and quickly shouted to Moore, "Master Chen, wait a minute!"

The positive energy had almost pierced through Harold's skin, but with Fade's shout, Moore paused in the nick of time.

He looked at him in confusion.

Instead of explaining, Fade strode over.

Meanwhile, Harold, who had shut his eyes to welcome death, gradually opened his eyes. When he saw that Moore had stopped, he paused. A smile appeared on his face as he looked at Fade and said, "Now, you know how powerful my Chiang family is! It's the same conditions as before. Letting me go would greatly benefit you. I, Harold, can..."

Before Harold could finish his words, Fade slapped him and muttered, "Shut up. Just answer my question. Otherwise, you will know the consequences."

Fade took out another silver needle, glimmering with a ray of silver light.

When he saw the silver needle, Harold couldn't help shivering. Recalling the pain that he had experienced earlier, his entire body trembled. "W-What are you trying to do?"

"Master Chen, I have some questions to ask him!" Fade explained to Moore. He then turned to Harold and questioned in a cold voice, "Who is Moon Lin whom you've mentioned just now?"

He instinctively replied, "Moon Lin! Why are you..."

Fade was not patient with him at all. He slapped him in the face and snapped, "I'm asking you the questions. Answer whatever I ask. Understood?"

As Harold gazed at him, he felt a chill down his spine. He hurriedly nodded his head.

"Tell me, who exactly is Moon Lin?" Fade repeated.

Harold then hastily replied, "Moon Lin is a member of one of the hidden family, the Lin family. His father is the current leader of the Lin Family, Tarmon Lin. Moon's position in the Lin Family is very high and there are many things that are no longer in Tarmon's management. Instead, Moon is the one who is truly managing the Lin family."

"The Hidden Lin Family!" Fade fell silent for a moment when he heard this. He then continued, "What kind of position is the Lin Family in the hidden family? How is it compared to your Chiang family?" When Harold heard this, he quickly answered, "The Lin family is a high and mighty existence. The Chiang family can't compare to the Lin family at all. If the Chiang family can be considered a second-rate hidden family amongst the hidden families, then the Lin family can be considered a first-rate family, and they are among the best of the best."

After hearing this, Fade fell silent again. He recalled the chat history that he saw on his wife's computer and the man whom she had contacted. He was named Moon Lin as well.

However, was he the same person as the Moon Lin that Harold had mentioned? Was he from the hidden Lin family? There was no way Fade could be certain.

After a pause, he continued asking, "About five months ago, Moon Lin brought back a young woman called Quin. Do you know anything about this?"

"Well..." Harold shook his head. "I have no idea about this. It's just that over the past six months, the Lin Family has been unusually active, and they have been in contact with the public more frequently. There are a lot of people coming in and out of the Lin Family, so perhaps Quin is one of

them!"

Upon hearing this, Fade was a little disappointed. "You claimed that the Lin family has been unusually active in the past six months. What do you mean?"

Harold quickly explained, "The biggest difference between the hidden families and the public world lies in the word 'hidden'. Under normal circumstances, the activities of the hidden families are relatively low- key. Even if they want to take part in some public activities, they wouldn't be directly involved. Instead, they would establish their own forces, or fund the existing forces in the public and make them serve under their family."

When Fade heard this, he nodded his head. The Hsing family that Romeo belonged to probably worked this way as well. The hidden Hsing family had recently established the branch of Hsing family in Capital City so that they could carry out activities in public, but they still secretly contacted the hidden family.
