"What else can we do but let you run first, so you don't stay here and hold Master Hao back and affect my performance!"
Rolling his eyes, Wang Hao bluntly stated what was on his mind.
If Zhao Dachui stays here, he will indeed have some reservations, so the most urgent task is to send him out, and then his tactics will be much more flexible.
"Even though it's the truth, it just sounds so unpleasant coming from you."
Zhao Dachui's face darkened; he was very dissatisfied with Wang Hao's merciless words, but in his heart he was extremely grateful.
Knowing it was a trap, they still came to the rescue, even letting him escape first—that's what brothers are for!
"You have to swallow your anger, what can you do when you're so weak?"
Glancing sideways at Zhao Dachui, who looked utterly dejected, Wang Hao launched another merciless attack.
"..."
These words made Zhao Dachui even more aggrieved, but he had nothing to say.
Although his current strength is indeed quite good, and he can even take on ordinary Early-Stage Grandmaster Realm experts one-on-one, compared to a freak like Wang Hao, he is really weak as trash.
" The Confucian School have caused quite a stir this time, even forcing the Emperor to abdicate. I can no longer stay in the capital. Perhaps we'll meet again someday!"
Wang Hao sighed; this was a farewell, after all.
"My wedding day with Ruonan is in a month, you can't be absent!"
After giving Wang Hao a deep look, Zhao Dachui truly acknowledged this brother.
"Huh? Didn't you say you'd only marry that woman after breaking through to the Grandmaster Realm and cultivating your protective true qi? You think you'll break through in just one month?"
Wang Hao was greatly surprised. He knew Sun Ruonan's terrifying strength. With Zhao Dachui's small frame, she could easily break his back if he wasn't careful. This guy wouldn't dare to marry that girl before breaking through to the Grandmaster Realm.
Why the change of heart now?
Judging from his appearance, he doesn't seem like someone who can break through within a month!
"Well, I went to see the doctor yesterday, and they said Ruonan is pregnant, so we have to get married sooner!"
Somewhat embarrassed, Zhao Dachui turned his head away, his face unusually flushed.
"You lost your virginity to that girl? When did that happen?"
Wang Hao was shocked, and his inner Bagua -loving spirit ignited fiercely.
He knew that although Zhao Dachui often went to brothels, he only drank a little alcohol and at most took advantage of the prostitutes with his hands. He was still a virgin.
Unexpectedly, this guy managed to sleep with that woman, Sun Ruonan, without saying a word.
"That happened two months ago!"
Zhao Dachui's face turned even redder with embarrassment. After all, he had been completely overpowered by that woman throughout the entire process, without gaining any initiative whatsoever. It was truly a great humiliation in his life!
I just didn't expect to conceive on the first try.
Left with no other choice, he had to hurry up and get married, becoming the son-in-law of the other family.
Otherwise, you can't wait until the other person is heavily pregnant or already has a baby before getting married!
If he were to do that, he would be beaten to death by his own father before his father-in-law could even make a move.
"Cough cough..."
The leader of the men in black inside the Ten Thousand Flowers House saw that Wang Hao and his companion were chatting as if no one else was around, so he coughed lightly to acknowledge their presence.
We're dealing with a serious ambush and encirclement right now, so you two better take this seriously, Old Z!
"It seems we can't continue this conversation!"
Glancing sideways at the dozen or so men in black, Wang Hao stood up, downed the wine in his flask in one gulp, and said, "You go first, leave this to me!"
"Take care, I'm waiting for you to be my child's godfather!"
After giving Wang Hao a deep look, Zhao Dachui also downed the wine in the flask in one gulp, then turned and walked out of the Ten Thousand Flowers House.
Wang Hao turned around, staring intently at the men in black guarding the door, as if to say, "If you dare to stop Laozi, I'll charge out right now."
As expected, intimidated by Wang Hao's terrifying strength, the men in black blocking the door exchanged glances and ultimately made way for Zhao Dachui to leave.
Anyway, their target this time is Wang Hao, so it doesn't matter whether they let small fry like Zhao Dachui go or not.
"Anyone who Confucian School, come out and say something!"
Seeing Zhao Dachui leave safely, Wang Hao turned around to face the interior of Ten Thousand Flowers House, his gaze finally settling on a private room.
He was able to sense through the True Spirit Sword Intent that there was a Peak Grandmaster of his level, a swordsman who had comprehended Sword Intent, and the strongest among them.
Clearly, that person is the one in charge.
"If you have any last words, don't say them; it's pointless!"
A refined middle-aged man walked out of the private room, looking down at Wang Hao with an extremely cold and indifferent gaze, as if he were looking at a dead man!
"I'm not at the point of saying anything like 'last words, 'Master Hao. I called you out to discuss whether we could change the battleground. These ladies at the Ten Thousand Flowers House have it tough, and the surrounding area is mostly inhabited by ordinary people. It wouldn't be good if the fight damaged their homes. Luckily, I know that the Grand Secretary's residence is on the next street. Let's have a fight there."
After sizing up the refined-looking man, Wang Hao smiled and said, but inwardly he was extremely wary.
This is a formidable opponent; we must treat him with caution!
"They're just lowly people, why should we worry about their lives!"
The refined man glanced at the trembling courtesans hiding in the corner, making no attempt to hide his disgust and contempt.
The Grand Secretary is a Confucian School scholar and holds a certain position; how could he possibly shift the battlefield to his own residence for the sake of some lowly commoners?
"You seem to have misunderstood something. I was just informing you, not asking for your opinion!"
Seeing the other party's face, Wang Hao felt a surge of anger. Without saying anything more, he drew his Shameless Greatsword and rushed towards the door.
Stop him!
The refined-looking man's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly ordered the men in black guarding the door to stop Wang Hao.
At the same time, a dozen or so men in black inside the Ten Thousand Flowers House also hurriedly used their lightness skills to attack Wang Hao.
"Clang clang clang..."
Facing the incoming weapons, Wang Hao wielded the Shameless Greatsword, weighing tens of thousands of pounds, and Sweep Away a Thousand Troops that interrupted the black-clad men's offensive and even sent them flying.
Wang Hao's own strength reached a staggering 90,000 jin, and the force he unleashed while wielding a ten-thousand-jin heavy sword was immeasurable, naturally beyond what these people could withstand.
All the men in black who participated in the attack were sent flying far away before they regained their footing. They stared in horror at their trembling arms. Some of them hadn't even been able to hold onto their weapons before they were knocked away.
The power Wang Hao just unleashed was truly terrifying; it was a power that no human should possess, and it was something they could never contend with.
After defeating all the men in black, Wang Hao, carrying the Shameless Greatsword, charged towards the Prime Minister's residence on the next street.
"Chase!"
The refined-looking man who had chased after Wang Hao at the door roared angrily at Wang Hao's rapidly advancing figure; he was truly enraged.
He never expected that his seemingly foolproof plan would be broken through so easily by that kid, and that bastard actually charged towards the Prime Minister's residence.
He had made this plan based on the intelligence he received from Lu Tingfeng, but compared to the intelligence Lu Tingfeng provided, Wang Hao's strength was far greater, putting them in a passive position at this moment.
"They're all a bunch of useless trash!"
Just then, a burly man, standing a full ten feet tall, emerged from the Ten Thousand Flowers House and uttered a disdainful curse to the men in black in broken Chinese.
They were clearly very dissatisfied with the behavior of these men in black.
" High Person Longxiang, it's time for you to take action!"
Although the refined man was secretly angry, he did not show it; in fact, his expression carried a sense of respect and apprehension.
This is none other than High Person Longxiang, the eldest disciple of High Person Linghui of Five Wheels Temple in the Great Snow Mountain. He is a master at the Peak Grandmaster and specializes in the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Art, a divine and unique martial art. He possesses unparalleled divine power and is known as the Number One Under Innate.
This person was someone the Confucian School had spent a considerable amount of money to invite from the Beyond-the-Pass Esoteric Sect, and if they wanted to deal with Wang Hao, they would have to rely on this person.
After all, Wang Hao's power was simply too terrifying; if his power wasn't restrained, there was no way to win this battle.
"Keep those useless pieces of trash out of the way!"
After giving the men in black a disdainful look once more, the High Person Longxiang, wielding an exaggeratedly shaped vajra, rushed towards the direction Wang Hao had gone.
"Sir, those barbarians from the grasslands have gone too far. Should we take this opportunity to...?"
A man in black stepped forward and made a throat-slitting gesture, clearly very displeased with the High Person Longxiang and wanting to keep him there.
"No, the High Person Longxiang holds a high position in the ancestral homeland of the Beyond-the-Pass Esoteric Sect. If he dies in the Central Plains, it will surely incur the wrath of the Beyond-the-Pass Esoteric Sect, and the loss will outweigh the gain."
The refined-looking man gave the man in black a cold glance as a warning, but inwardly he was extremely wary of him.
As a core member of Confucian School, he naturally knew just how terrifying the secrets of the ancestral homeland of the Beyond-the-Pass Esoteric Sect truly were.
The masters of the Beyond-the-Pass Esoteric Sect were nothing special, but their Living Buddha was a terrifying being who had lived and reincarnated for countless years. His strength was so formidable that even the Confucian School ancestors were wary of him.
It's best not to provoke such a being.
"Go and ask the Grand Secretary to leave his residence; it seems his mansion is doomed this time!"
Gathering the jumbled thoughts in his mind, the refined man gave the order.
He had just witnessed Wang Hao's power and had some guesses about the strength of the High Person Longxiang. If these two monsters were to fight, the Prime Minister's residence would definitely be reduced to ruins.
Before that, he had to ensure the safety of the Grand Secretary, after all, this person was not like those peripheral members of the Confucian School school, he had a very high status and position, and if anything happened to him, he would be in deep trouble.
"Yes, sir! I'll take care of it right away!"
The man in black nodded to indicate that he understood, but just as he was about to use his lightness skill to deal with the matter, he was suddenly stopped by the refined man.
"Wait, hasn't Abbess Qingmiao from the Mount Heng Sect arrived with her entourage yet?"
He had invited masters from the Five Sacred Mountains Sword Sects, and all four sects—Songshan, Huashan, Hengshan, and Taishan—responded to the invitations and sent varying numbers of grandmaster-level masters to assist him.
But to this day, the Mount Heng Sect has still not responded, which is quite strange.
"No, not a single nun from that group has come. However, the old nun Qingmiao did write back saying that there have been unusual developments among the grassland tribes recently, and they have sent all their people out to prepare for defense, so they cannot offer us any assistance."
The man in black answered honestly, but his answer left the refined man utterly speechless.
"Damn old nun, you just wait!"
The refined man was furious. How could he not tell that this was the excuse of the Abbess Qingmiao? But her words also had a moral high ground. After all, dealing with Wang Hao was a private matter, but the grassland tribes were the real issue.
He can't very well condemn people for this!
However, he remembered this debt and would settle it with double the amount sooner or later!
