No wonder Second Master Ling was so furious; the man's identity was indeed special, and he had intricate ties to the Ling Family.
This man was a disciple of the former family head, Ling Kongchen, and strictly speaking, he was also Ling Haoran's junior martial brother. When Ling Kongchen was still the family head, he had taken good care of him, even making him an adopted son in the hope that he would one day assist his son, Ling Haoran, in strengthening and consolidating the Ling Family.
Yet no one could have ever guessed that this man harbored malicious intentions. While he had always maintained a righteous facade, behind the scenes he secretly cast his sinister claws toward the younger female relatives within the Ling estate. Fortunately, it was discovered in time to save the female relative, and after the incident, the man was severely punished by Ling Kongchen. Had Ling Kongchen not been soft-hearted and merely banished him from the Ling estate, the man would have been executed on the spot.
