Lu Ming started with the ancestor of the Lu Family.
Although he was a Lu Family disciple, he was rather peripheral, not very old, and his seniority was still shallow. If he did not ask about these secrets, he would not know them, and now that he spoke of them, he found them somewhat hard to say:
"It's a little disrespectful to put it this way, but... the ancestor was extravagant and ostentatious, and also a bit... lustful..."
Mo Hua knew that much.
Many of the brothels on Jinhua Street had been built by "Lu the Skinner" for the sake of indulging in pleasure.
But there were some things even Mo Hua did not know...
Lu Ming said in a low voice, "It's said... the ancestor, he didn't even spare the women of the family..."
Mo Hua froze. "Women of the family? The Lu Family?"
Lu Ming nodded, somewhat ashamed.
"And then?"
Lu Ming seemed unable to get the words out. After hesitating for a long time, he finally lowered his voice and said:
"It's said that among the female disciples of the Lu Family, any who were beautiful, whether of the direct line or a collateral branch, whether untouched maidens or other men's wives, would be... defiled by the ancestor..."
Mo Hua's eyelids twitched as he listened.
He could even do something like that?
He should not be called "Lu the Skinner." He should be called "Lu the Beast"...
"Of course, these are only rumors... they may not necessarily be true."
Lu Ming sounded rather lacking in confidence, but still tried his best to salvage a little of his ancestor's dignity:
"The ancestor was harsh by nature. It's possible others hated him, spread rumors, slandered him, and said filthy things..."
Mo Hua, however, felt it was almost certainly true.
