A badge shaped like a raven.

Hidden within the jet-black feathers were a pair of cold, red eyes.

It was... a night owl!

Huo Ling involuntarily took a step back.

Why are the Huo family and Ice Cube involved with Night Owl?

"I know you're confused right now, but I want you to take a look at this first." Pei Feng raised his hand and tossed over a photographic stone. "This is the moment of your father's death. Enjoy it!"

"You!" Huo Ling clenched his fist tightly.

His body erupted in flames, and a fire dragon swept out towards Pei Feng's face in an instant, but it did not harm Pei Feng in the slightest.

Pei Feng calmly brushed the dust off the corner of his clothes and smiled, "Although I'm very interested in you, I hope you won't get my clothes dirty again, little classmate~"

Huo Ling stared intently at him for a moment, then looked away and began to examine the recording stone that Pei Feng had given him.

In the scene, Jiang Wuyuan is standing opposite Huo Qianshan.

Upon seeing the two of them together, Huo Ling was momentarily stunned, but then patiently watched on.

When Huo Qianshan admitted in the video that he had poisoned Jiang Wuyuan with Gu, Huo Ling's eyes showed a hint of disbelief.

The next second, Jiang Wuyuan's Star Devourer pierced through Huo Qianshan's chest.

Blood filled the man's chest, and his once tall figure slowly collapsed.

Huo Ling was completely stunned.

Ice cube... killed his father?

Kester, standing to the side, gave Pei Feng a questioning look.

He had seen that photo stone before, and it didn't seem to tell the same story.

Pei Feng raised an eyebrow and transmitted his voice to him: "I used some methods to change the content."

Upon hearing this, Kester withdrew his gaze, secretly marveling at how cunning the kid was, just like always.

"This is fake." Huo Ling pursed his lips, trying to make his voice sound calm. "My father and Ice Cube would never do such a thing."

However, Pei Feng's focus was a bit off: "Ice Cube? Jiang Wuyuan? Hmm~ that really is a fitting nickname for him."

"Ahem." Kester coughed twice, drawing Pei Feng's wandering attention back.

"Alright, alright, I told you you don't have to believe me." Pei Feng shrugged, but his beautiful eyes stared directly at Huo Ling, as if he could see through all the hesitation and unease in Huo Ling's heart. "Then why don't you call Huo Qianshan and see if he answers?"

Huo Ling had the same idea, so he immediately opened his bracelet and dialed Huo Qianshan's number.

However, there was no response from the other end of the waiting time.

"Maybe he's busy."

Pei Feng nodded noncommittally and teased, "Maybe I just saw a stubborn kid?"

"You!" Huo Ling's eyes widened.

Thinking of the scene where Huo Qianshan lay in a pool of blood, a tear silently slid down and fell into the soil.

With pain and confusion, and a touch of persistence and unease.

"I don't believe it!"

"Whatever you want," Pei Feng said with a smile. "Let me tell you something else. Night Owl has already planted a Gu worm in your body. Huo Qianshan poisoned Jiang Wuyuan to prevent us from controlling the outbreak of the Gu worm in your body."

"Yes, that's truly great fatherly love!"

Now, Huo Ling was mostly convinced.

"Why... do I have Gu worms inside me?" Huo Ling asked in a hoarse voice.

"Because the Huo family originally belonged to my Night Owl faction."
