Since Uncle had put it that way.
Xiao Wu could only silently start wiping the windows, hoping to give him a satisfactory answer once the cleaning was done.
"..."
"That's how it happened. Besides, I only treated her as a tool. There were no real feelings involved."
"And I painstakingly pulled your mother's soul out of her spirit ring. For that alone... have you let go of the door?"
His gaze shifted downward.
What met his eyes was the rabbit's furious little face, along with the "deadly weapon" in her hand—a breakfast platter plated to a perfect 100...
As for the soy milk, it had long since been finished.
"..."
After hesitating for a while.
The rabbit finally put down the plate. After all, it held that perfect 100-point breakfast...
"You'd better not be lying to me!"
"Otherwise, even if you're Uncle, I, Sister Xiao Wu, am not someone to be trifled with!" She stretched out both hands and suddenly clenched them into fists in midair, matching the breakfast from earlier.
As if she wanted to crush it to pieces.
This made Du Bei, who had only just been safe for a moment, immediately straighten up and move away from this dangerous rabbit.
He was terrified she would get another hold over him!
During the big cleanup earlier, he had merely failed to hang out a coat to dry, and this rabbit had seized the chance.
Otherwise, as a dignified level-40 Spirit Master, even without two spirit rings, there was no way he could have been threatened by a rabbit. It was only because someone had gotten hold of his weakness.
How tragic. How pitiful. It was enough to make a man weep.
"Hmph! I'm ignoring you!"
"Fine, get out already! I don't want to see you right now. Let me have some peace for a while."
Xiao Wu walked toward the bathroom.
Of course, she sounded fierce, but she was definitely not truly angry.
She was just looking for an excuse to rest for a bit. After all, the big cleanup had been rather exhausting, both physically and mentally.
Right now, Xiao Wu only wanted to freshen up, then sleep beautifully in bed until the end of time!
She had not gotten a proper rest these past few days.
"Alright~"
"Then I'll head out first. Rest easy in here, and remember to brush your teeth~"
Xiao Wu heard Du Bei's voice from outside the door.
The clever Xiao Wu immediately shut the bathroom door, not giving someone even the slightest response. She was truly afraid he would invite her to another 1v1 real-life PK match.
When the faint sound of running water began to echo from the bathroom.
Du Bei stopped lingering and headed straight for the door to check on the work downstairs.
It was definitely not because he could not handle the sound of water~
"..."
Black Hand Gang headquarters.
In the main hall.
Having just come down the stairs, Du Bei looked up and immediately saw a fierce argument coming from the front desk.
"Oh? It's pretty lively in here."
"What happened?"
A sharp-eyed Black Hand Gang member, who had already noticed his arrival, hurried over to his side.
He quickly explained in a low voice.
"Boss, it's like this. The moment that kid came over, he started shouting about wanting to go upstairs..."
"And he kept spouting nonsense..."
After hearing his subordinate's report, Du Bei more or less understood the situation in the hall.
He nodded to show that he understood.
"I know what's going on."
"Where's Cuihua? Didn't she come out to stop him?"
The subordinate hurriedly pointed discreetly toward a second-floor window.
"The president is up there. There hasn't been any movement yet. She's probably holding a sniper rifle..."
Following the subordinate's finger.
Du Bei happened to spot Cuihua, carrying a long iron rod and aiming it steadily at Tang San, who was still making a racket in the hall.
Seeing this, Du Bei was finally at ease.
"Good work. As expected of the elite I brought over from Notting City. Your handling is very professional."
"Keep it up."
He reached out and patted the young man on the shoulder, showing his approval of his work ethic.
Seeing the boss pat his shoulder, the young man immediately stood at attention in excitement!
His face flushed red as he shouted excitedly!
"Everything for the organization!"
After encouraging the young man a few more times and feeding him a few bowls of inspirational soup, Du Bei finally left under that lingering, reluctant gaze.
Before Du Bei could even walk to the front desk with a smile and greet them.
He heard a loud bang first!
Looking closely.
He saw Tang San slam a clenched fist viciously onto the counter, pointing at the receptionist's face as he cursed!
"Why won't you let me go upstairs?"
"You bitch! Do you believe I can call people over and tear down this dump of yours? How dare you show me such disrespect..."
Facing the aggressive young man before her.
The receptionist still wore that perfect smile. She looked at him calmly, but her tone did not yield in the slightest.
She maintained the same attitude as before.
"My apologies, young sir."
"The upper floors are not yet open to the public and cannot receive outsiders for the time being. If you need to commission or claim other tasks, please make your selection at the task reception areas on the right or left."
The speaker maintained her courteous smile throughout, utterly unmoved by the young man's threats.
As though she had no concern whatsoever for her own safety.
Seeing this, Tang San was so angry that he laughed!
"Fine, fine, fine. I was originally going to give your hotel some face, but since you people don't know what's good for you."
"Then don't blame this young master for being rude!"
Without wasting another word, he strode past the front desk and headed toward the staircase.
He was preparing to force his way upstairs to find Xiao Wu...
However, before he had taken more than a few steps, two burly figures blocked his path.
They were Black Hand Gang security personnel stationed here, each with an average strength of around level 20.
Their spirit power surged as they revealed themselves.
Two yellow spirit rings appeared!
"Sorry. Without permission, you may not enter!"
"Please step back!"
Each of them extended a hand in front of Tang San, watching him calmly.
Seeing the two dare to block his path.
Especially when he saw that the ones blocking him were merely two two-ring Grand Spirit Masters, Tang San laughed in anger.
Spirit rings immediately appeared beneath his feet as well!
Three spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple—appeared!
"Two mere two-ring Grand Spirit Masters actually dare to bark in front of me. Are you tired of living?"
"If you still want to keep your lives, get lost already!" His tone was extremely disdainful, and he did not take the two burly guards seriously at all.
He could not even be bothered to call them guards.
Among the people in this hall, the strongest was only that fat woman on the second floor holding a rod, someone at the same level as him.
The rest were utterly beneath notice in Tang San's eyes.
"Since you can't understand human speech, don't blame me for being impolite! Take my Blue Silver (biological mother) Entanglement..."
Seeing that the two had not left, Tang San could not be bothered to waste words. He directly used his spirit ring skill.
He was preparing to teach the two a lesson they would never forget!
Seeing this from afar, Du Bei stopped walking over.
He folded his arms, ready to watch a good show.
"Now this is going to be fun."
"That brat Tang San..."
Facing the spirit skill rushing toward them, the two bodyguards moved as if they had coordinated countless times, each shoving the other away.
They swiftly retreated to a safe distance.
Tang San only gave a cold laugh at the sight!
"Do you think running fast will help?"
"Watch me cripple you..."
As Tang San spat his threats.
The two guards who had pushed each other away had already reached for the bulges at their waists, pulling out trapezoid-shaped iron handles.
Their icy gazes locked onto Tang San's position.
Bang bang bang!!!
