Xin Lei had never asked Piao Miao about the origin of the Lion Heart bloodline, but now that she knew, a chill rose from her feet. The reason she had tried by all means to reconcile with Lu Hong was never simple. As for Lu Hong's suffering in the Fanlotis Prison, Xin Lei was not uninformed. In fact, it was with the tacit approval of both her and Chen Hui, two Dukes, that those profiteers were allowed to torture at will.
Almost no one could survive such severe torture, but Lu Hong did. The fact that he could do this was enough to show that this man possessed a will a hundred times stronger than ordinary people. In the path of cultivating a profession, such a powerful will was a key to becoming a strong fighter, especially since Lu Hong already had tremendous strength at a young age. The combination of the two had long made him a strong fighter of this era.
