The manager, hearing someone's stern shout, immediately turned to locate the source of the voice and soon found that it came from above, and when he looked up, he froze for a moment. The Patriarch of the Sun Family and the others were actually watching him from up there.
He quickly spoke up, "Young Master Xu, Patriarch of the Sun Family, Patriarch of the Zhang Family, this guy just now actually dared to block Young Master Xu's way. If I don't punish him properly, it would hardly set an example! Otherwise, the security guards will follow suit, and our hotel will be thrown into chaos."
The manager, no stranger to dealing with influential figures, almost instantly came up with an excuse to try to shirk his responsibility.
However, no matter what he said, it was of no use.
Xu Hao said coldly, "This young man, I'm vouching for him."
Sun Decong also spoke, "Starting today, you are dismissed from your position as the HR manager; you may pack up and leave."
The manager was stunned for a moment and then shouted angrily, "Patriarch of the Sun Family, you can't do this, I've worked here so long, if not for my achievements, at least for my hard work!"
At this moment, the young man, seeing Xu Hao speaking up for him and the Patriarch of the Sun Family calling for the manager's dismissal, suddenly felt his eyes moisten. He had clearly stopped Xu Hao from entering just now, yet Xu Hao did not take it to heart and even spoke up to help him.
Sun Decong snorted coldly, "Do you really need so many reasons to be dismissed? Weren't you just as quick to dismiss this young fellow without a second thought?"
The manager immediately fell silent, knowing that he was finished in Huadu.
With the Patriarch of the Sun Family dismissing him personally, basically no hotel would dare to hire him anymore. Although this international hotel was not solely run by the Sun Family, no one would want to cross the Patriarch of the Sun Family over such trifles.
The manager sighed to himself and went to pack his belongings and leave.
Xu Hao looked at the young man and then said, "When you were fighting with them just now, I didn't intervene because I wanted to see your martial arts potential. Now, it seems you've indeed trained hard at the martial arts school; otherwise, you wouldn't have achieved these results. But you should know, your strength right now is only slightly better than the average person. Have you heard of 'Internal Energy Transformation,' 'Control,' and 'Grandmaster'?" Chесk Мy Virtuаl Librаry Еmpirе (МV1LЕМР1YR) fоr thе lаtеst updаtеs.
"I've heard, I've heard!" The young man, hearing Xu Hao mention these terms, immediately became excited. He had heard about these things from his teachers while at the martial arts school, but their teachers were not masters of Qi transformation and had only a superficial understanding themselves. Thus, he himself only knew a little and wasn't very clear about them.
But he understood that even the least powerful master of Qi transformation would be more than a match for ten of him, so he was naturally full of curiosity about these higher realms of martial arts.
Hearing this mysterious Young Master Xu suddenly bring up these topics filled him with anticipation, and his instincts told him that he might be about to encounter an enormous stroke of luck.
Xu Hao smiled and said, "Would you like to experience the world of such high-level masters?"
"Yes!" the young man immediately replied, "Young Master Xu, I won't hide it from you, I've dreamt of encountering those things, but unfortunately, I lack connections and networks, and I'm unable to gain the favor of those masters to learn the real kung fu."
Xu Hao smiled and said, "Today, I'll give you that chance. What's your name?"
Feeling ecstatic, the young man quickly replied, "Young Master Xu, my name is Xin Peixian."
Xu Hao nodded slightly and then said, "Take this bottle of Healing Medicine, apply it to your wounds, and then come find me in the banquet hall on the top floor."
With that, Xu Hao took out a bottle from his pocket and casually tossed it down. The bottle flew swiftly through the air, yet landed gently on the young man's body.
"Thank you, Young Master Xu! Thank you, Young Master Xu!" Xin Peixian said, full of gratitude, while Xu Hao
Then, Xu Hao left with Xiao Lan.
Sun Decong looked intently at Xin Peixian, his mind seemingly pondering something, then they too departed.
But what left Xin Peixian astonished was that the little bottle, falling from the height of five floors, landed on him and felt almost weightless, very light indeed.
This made Xin Peixian think of the martial arts novels' "Lightness skill: Floating on water" and "Leaving No Trace on Snow". Could this be the rudiments of those supreme Qinggong skills?
His longing for a deeper level of martial arts grew as he gleefully opened the little bottle and carefully applied some of it to his body.
Soon, he saw that the scars on his body were gradually disappearing, and the wounds were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye!
"This... this... this is simply miraculous medicine!"
Xin Peixian was astounded by the effectiveness of the medicine; he had never seen any other medicine heal wounds so quickly. If this wasn't a miracle, what was?
Now, he believed even more in what Xu Hao had said. He was also filled with confidence about the future, convinced that following such a good boss, he could definitely achieve great things.
