Before everyone had a chance to catch their breath while sitting on the ground, they saw a few people walking by not far away. They were all wearing armor and looked like soldiers guarding the city.

Huo narrowed his eyes and glanced at him, then raised his eyebrows in surprise. Oh, we meet again.

When Han Ping was walking towards this side with a few people, he accidentally saw the figure sitting casually on the ground. He quickened his pace in disbelief.

When they walked in front of the crowd, Zhou Youfeng and the others stood up immediately when they saw that the soldiers had arrived. Only Huo? and Ning Gang sat on the ground holding a child without moving.

Han Ping stopped in front of Huo Yu and looked him over for a long moment before asking, "Are you a human or a ghost?"

Many years ago, this man secretly escaped from the Dark Night Pavilion. I heard that he fell off a cliff and died, but I didn't expect to see him again.

Han Ping and Huo? were brought into the Dark Night Pavilion at about the same time. They grew up together, but later took different paths.

He met a daughter of an official and negotiated with Ye Buli to enter the court.

Huo? had secretly defected many years ago and disappeared for many years. Han Ping thought that he had really fallen off a cliff and died, but he didn't expect to see him again. This made Han Ping unable to believe his eyes.

"What do you think?" Huo asked calmly.

Such a living person stood in front of him, and spoke no differently than before, which made Han Ping believe it even if he didn't want to.

So he said, "It's a pity you didn't die."

There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"It's a shame indeed." Huo Yu also said sarcastically, "Some people can't be number one again."

When Han Ping heard what Huo Yu said, he was so angry that his teeth were itching. This guy still deserved a beating like before.

A man beside him, wearing official attire and holding a booklet, looked at Han Ping, then at Huo Yu, who was sitting motionless on the ground, and asked curiously, "Deputy Commander Han, do you know him?"

The two people sitting on the ground were very bold. They dared to sit on the ground and remain indifferent when they saw the court officials.

But when he thought of this, Huo? had already stood up with Ning Yan. After all, the man in front of him was already an official, so he had to at least give him some face.

"I guess so." Han Ping said indifferently.

Then he looked in Ning Yan's direction and asked, "Is this the husband you married?"

"Yes, these are my two twin sons. What do you think? Are you envious?" Huo Yun in his arms said proudly.

After that, he gossiped again, "I wonder how many children Deputy Commander Han has now? Which daughter did he marry?"

Han Ping didn't want to answer his question, and only said with a hint of meaning: "This place is different from before, you better watch your life."

In the past, they had all kinds of missions in the Dark Night Pavilion, such as stealing secrets, bounty for killing, intelligence trafficking, etc. Not to mention those people they had offended before, just for the Dark Night Pavilion, Han Ping believed that Ye Buli would not let him go easily. After all, the rules of the Dark Night Pavilion were there.

Although Han Ping's words showed concern, there was also some element of watching the fun in them.

"Thank you for your concern." Huo replied indifferently.

Han Ping looked at the man who still looked down on everyone, so he didn't say anything more. He just signaled the clerk holding the book (the official in charge of population registration in Donglin State) to start registering everyone.

Yesterday's casualties were really heavy. After they defeated the spider, their superiors immediately ordered them to count the casualties, and to make sure to count the living people as soon as possible and clean up the corpses in the city.

When checking Huo and the others' information, Han Ping glanced at it casually, then pointed at the words on it and asked with a strange look on his face, "Are you marrying into the family?"

"What's the problem?" Huo asked proudly.

When Huo Yan got married to Ning Yan, the Ning couple were still alive. Because of his frail health, the Ning couple were afraid that he would die earlier than them, so they were not at all confident in leaving Ning Yan to him.

In order to reassure the two old people, he chose to marry into someone else's family. After all, he was alone, so marrying into someone else's family would be no big deal, and it would also save him a lot of trouble. It was hard for anyone to believe that Huo?, the former number one killer, would marry into someone else's family and become a son-in-law.

"Are you still a man?" Han Ping said sarcastically.

"What do you think?" Huo Yun raised his arms and answered slowly.

Can't men give birth to sons?

Han Ping was speechless when he heard this. This guy was so fucking brave and able to bend and stretch. He, Han Ping, felt inferior to him.

At this time, the clerk in charge of checking the registration looked at the two characters "Huo" and muttered to himself as he registered, "Huo? Why does this name sound familiar?"

Upon hearing this, Han Ping looked up at Huo, wanting to see how this man would answer and whether he had the courage to admit his identity like this.

No one else was sure yet, so Huo? naturally wouldn't come and announce his identity himself, so he just stood there calmly without saying a word.

Upon hearing this, an officer said uncertainly, "Isn't the killer mentioned by the storyteller at the Mo Wen Tower in the capital also called Huo?"
